My name is Natsuko Kawai. I was born in summer. Summer is called “natsu” in Japan, so I was named “Natsuko”. This summer, I’ll be 21 years old.

I’ve lived in Musashikosugi, Kawasaki since this spring with my elder sister. It takes over 40 minutes by train to Fuchinobe from Musashikosugi. It’s hard to change the train every morning because transfer station is always very crowded. I earnestly wish there were no people in the station.

My sister works deep into the night almost every day, so housework is my part. I often make a lunch and package in lunch box. I was troubled to cook at first, but I enjoy recently. I like cooking, but I like eating more. I like meats, fishes, vegetables, rice and noodles, that is to say like everything!
