am going to write my first essay, comparing my hometown, Aichi and Tokyo, where I am living in now. Aichi prefecture is located on the middle of Japan, and facing the Pacific Ocean. I was brought up in Okazaki City, Aichi. Okazaki is a birth place of Tokugawa Ieyashu, a famous feudal lord in Edo era, and a very old town with atmosphere of a castle town.
Now I am comparing Aichi and Tokyo by the side of numerical data. Tokyo is 2186.84k㎡ and has 12,059,237 people (The population is a top class of the world). On the other hand Aichi is 5154.51k㎡ and has 7,043,235 people. Tokyo is, as you know, the Japanese capital, so it is developed administration, economy and culture, while Aichi is industrialized as a great industrial area. Maybe you know Aichi comprises Toyota City which is world famous car industry. When I was junior high, the 80% of my classmates' father was working at a Toyota company. Every adult made cars in my town!
Aichi is sometimes referred to that little difference from Tokyo for Aichi has a big city, Nagoya from the point of quality level of life. But Aichi remains very unique culture; art, fashion, food, history, etc. We can watch a unique style of KABUKI (Japanese classical play) mixed up Tokyo style and Osaka style, see delicious dish used soybean paste everywhere, visit to many historical sights and so on.
Oh I just remember that Aichi took place an expo lately, so you might have been to Aichi before.
By the way, if you are interested in Japanese industrial technology or Japanese history, Aichi is very good to you.

Your english is amazing. i wish that my japanese could someday be as good. 今私の日本語葉あまりです。あなたにTOYOTAの車を運転しますか。私はTOYOTAの４RUNNERを運手しますとてもすきです。４RUNNERにたくさん塚手で山にSKIをしいます。
本当にすいません。私の不沙汰はとても無意です。
元気ですか。最近は、新しい音楽を聞きましたか。Lovelessでは“Only Shallow”と”When You Sleep”と”I Only Said”と”Sometimes”と”Soon”が大好きだから。。。その全部albumはとてもよかったですね。
昨夏で、Museが見ました。とても楽しかった！今、MGMTを聞いて、ありますか。
お便りをお待ちしています！
