皆さんこんにちは！
本日空気清浄機の湿度表示は87％・・・。
夜中に蚊でおきて、子供が痒くて眠れないとぐずる、私の髪の毛はこの湿気のおかげで爆発、という怒涛の日々を過ごす中、この夏初めてのクーラーの中、日本酒を飲みながらパソコンに向かっております。
本来ならオリンピックで盛り上がっていたであろうこの7月（本当は去年）ですが、なんだか知らず知らずのうちに過ぎ去っていきそうですね・・・

さて、そんな梅雨も吹き飛ばすような楽しく熱い２時間をみんなでシェアしましょう♪

I am proud to say that I passed the certification exam for international Kikisakeshi ! Yay!! I am excited that I can introduce Japanese culture to the world with a little bit of added knowledge.

Anyway, we would have welcomed millions of people from all over the world due to Olympic games, if there weren’t corona pandemic.
This would have been great opportunity for introducing our beautiful culture to the world such as our amazing cuisine, living style, annual events or our personalities etc...
For the next opportunity, I would like to talk about it today.

Part 1
1. What kind of Japanese culture you adore the most?
2. Which culture you experienced in the past but not anymore?
3. What culture do you want to introduce to people from overseas?
4. How can we keep this beautiful Japanese culture for the future?

Part 2 How do we support the industries which are damaged greatly by Corona pandemic?

We are still facing at unexpected long-term suffering from corona pandemic.
Yes, we all are stressed out, but we might all agree that people who suffer the most are those in food industry.

Please see the link below. This sake brewery is located in Yamaguchi and known for their amazing sake within Japan and shipped greatly to overseas.

1. How have your dining-out life changed after pandemic?
2. Though professionals say situation will be better if the government demands restaurant close or partially close for the moment, do you think this demand is reasonable?
3. Do you think vaccine will change the situation completely? Why or why not?
4. How do we support such industry, including food or alcohol supplier, or further, tourism industry, cinema industry, department store, any industry which are damaged greatly by Corona pandemic.
