  Description

  My daughter is currently 7 years old and attending elementary school. Her daughter has been learning English once a week for two years. I have overseas experience, so I can understand a little English. However, I don't have an environment where I can use English, so I would like to have an environment where I can use a lot of English. My family includes my daughter, my partner, and two dogs. There is a rice field next door, where we grow flowers, vegetables, and rice. I really like the outdoors, and when the weather is nice, I enjoy playing sports on my days off. I enjoy going to events such as home parties about once a month.
