Your English is quite good for the majority of
your writing but I have written it now as I would
have. However, I was unable to complete your
second paragraph because I could not
understand what Obachann was. Could you
please tell me? Chloe
Hi Chloe!
I appreciate your kindness. "Obachan" is women
whose age are 30-50 and they have warm heart
and great energy. Most of them love going to
shopping, watching Korean dramas and having
a chat in the street. Thanks, Ayaka
