I was born in Izumi in Osaka, the second largest city in Japan. I could describe Osaka as a diverse and dynamic city. This is because there are many options for entertainment, a wide range of events, restaurants, shopping centers, and public facilities. However, to be honest, my hometown is located on the outskirts of the city; therefore, it is quite peaceful and relaxing, while it still offers all essential amenities.
