Hello from Japan. Start Writing a Blog in My Second Language.


I've been writing another blog (Chinmyo Zakki Cho) in Japanese for about one and half year. I update it almost everyday and the articles are about natural farming, natural recipes which uses vegetables grown in my field and wild plants, shops and restaurants of my favorite, columns about work style and life, and so on.

It was not long after I started blogging in Japanese that I also wanted to write a blog in English. There will be much more people that I can communicate with if I write in English. Also, I wanted to see what I could write when I change languages from the one I use everyday into another which could reach broader and more far-away places in the world. What one can write depends on who would read it to some extent. When I write my Japanese blog, I assume my readers would be mainly the Japanese living mainly in Japan.

It's interesting for me to start writing a new blog even without knowing who will read it from where in the world.

Some of the articles will be rewrited from my Japanese blog, and in addition to this I will write original articles for this English blog.

I think the key to keep blogging is to enjoy it. I just want to start writing what I really want to write.
