おはようございます。Atsushiです。

今日の天気は曇り、気温は15℃、
北海道はまだまだ寒いです。
みなさんの住んでいるところの天気はどうでしょうか。

家の近くにとてもきれいな川があります。
今日はその川沿いを歩きながら録音しています。

今日は、なぜ北海道に住んでいるかを話します。
理由は僕の妻、奥さんの転勤があったからです。
僕は、今オンラインの仕事をしているので、場所を選びません。
ですので、一緒に引越をしました。

北海道へ来て、まだ1週間ほどですが、とてもワクワクしながら生活しています。
今まで見れなかった自然や、おいしい食べ物があるので、とても楽しいです。

きっと、天気や気温も1番良い時に、北海道へ引越してきたので、冬はとても心配です。
場所によってはマイナス20℃近くまで下がるところもあるそうです。
そんな気温の変化も冬にお伝えしたいと思います。

ということで、最後まできいてくださり、ありがとうございます！
ではまた！
