Hello, How have you been?
In Japan, the season of sakura is over. And, it’s becoming hotter and hotter. Sometimes I feel as if it has already become summer. In this kind of climate, plants and flowers become more energetic.
In Tokyo, there are a lot of buildings and people.
It is very convenient and exciting, but sometimes I feel tired because of too many artificial things. In this case, plants and flowers can help me take a rest. I like it when I’m with them.
If you live in Tokyo, they definitely help you lead a comfortable life but, the land of Tokyo is not cheap. Needless to say, the land of Tokyo is the most expensive in Japan. The land price in Tokyo is more than three times as expensive as in Osaka, the second most expensive city in Japan. So, do not expect to find a house with backyard or garden in Tokyo if you’re looking for a temporary housing.
Here, however, in Oakhouse Kichijoji2, there are both backyard and garden. If you like gardening, you can grow plants and flowers. Some of our housemates planted flowers and even vegetables, and put bonsai(japanese artistic miniature plant).We can see it everyday. Plants and flowers make our life better. These days, I drink a cup of coffee while I see the field or the garden. It’s my favorite time.

Bonsai, How cute! isn’t it?

Sprouts of vegetables
And, plants and vegetables give us happiness not only by looking at them but also by consuming them as food.
Last year, some vegetables had been planted in our field, so we could enjoy fresh vegetables. Especially, we got a lot of sweet tomatoes! I’m looking forward to them!

Last year’s tomatoes!!
In this way, you can enjoy nature here.
If you like plants, flowers or vegetables, you would like the life in our house!!
Thank you for reading my post.
