Participants / Impression / Hiroshima

On August 6, we went to the Peace Memorial Park. Confronting the scars left by the war and the atomic bomb gave me the opportunity to think deeply about them, and to realize that the past is more intertwined with my life than I had previously assumed. As a Japanese person, I was glad that Emily and Daniel expressed an interest in the atomic bomb. I took about 2,000 photos in Hiroshima. It was an intense program, and we had a very productive time there.

The members of our team all came from various backgrounds, having seen and experienced different things, so I was a bit baffled by the range of ideas and opinions. But the issue was not about responding to every single difference, but about accepting them, so it wasn’t that hard. We certainly had our disagreements when we were preparing for our presentation, but I think that’s what made our final product such a great one.
