I found this picture of my house in the Shizuoka prefecture in Japan. It was built around 1997. The news of Hurricane Harvey in Texas made me think about my house. My grandparents had it built to withstand a hurricane because at that time my neighborhood’s hurricane rate was very high. [Photograph]. (n.d.). Shizuoka prefecture In Google.
