Volunteer works for Miyagi, a place devastated by the tsunami

Last weekend,

I participated in a two-day volunteer tour.
I went to Higashi-matsushima city, Miyagi Prefecture.
That town was devastated by a tsunami on March 11th.

In spite of six months after the tsunami, 
I saw many collapsed houses and the overturned cars.
My heart was shocked unspeakably.

We cut the grass around the desolate railway destroyed by the tsunami.
Even though I was very tired because of the lack of daily exercise,
My heart burned for a sense of mission to reconstruction of the Northeast Japan.

After work



After this, we are planning to plant rapeseed on this line.
We are calling it "Operation Rapeseed"

Through working with experienced volunteers, and hearing old man's experience of tsunami,I had a valuable experience.

If you are hesitant to do something for the Northeast Japan because of lack of experience, 
I recommended you to participate a volunteer tour.
