James had always been interested in Japanese culture since he was a kid. When he saw me on the train, he started talking to me. I was, of course, interested in French culture, so we became friends because we could learn from each other.<br /><br /><font color="#0033cc">Ｑ：Why did you start going out?</font><br /><br />We both enjoyed talking to each other and eating together. We decided to see how things would go if we go beyond friendship, so we started going out.<br /><br /><font color="#0033cc">Ｑ：Why did you decide to get married?</font><br /><br />It was because we both had the belief that we could be with each other forever.<br />Also, part of it was because the question of what to do with James’ pizza also becomes simpler.<br /><br /><font color="#0033cc">Ｑ：What do you do on holidays?</font><br /><br />We often dine out on holidays. We also ride a bike to places where we can take a walk. <br />There are a lot of places in Tokyo that James wants to visit, so we go sightseeing and shopping as well.<br />When the weather is not so good, we watch a movie.<br /><br /><font color="#0033cc">Ｑ：What’s an ideal family like to you?</font><br /><br />I want 2 kids, a boy and a girl. I also want to travel to many countries and places together. <br /><br /><font color="#0033cc">Ｑ：What do you call each other?</font><br /><br />It depends on the situation. Usually we call each other “cherie”, a word that French use towards important people such as family and the people they love. </div>      <div class="both10"></div>      <div id="int_box_left"> </div>    <!-- MTinternational03 -->            <div class="both10"></div>      <div id="article">        <div id="article_left">                                  <img src="/english/images/international/252_international_08.gif" width="140" />                                                                              </div>      <!-- international_13 -->        <div id="article_right"><font color="#0033cc">Ｑ：How was your first impression of each other?</font><br /><br />James: I thought she was an interesting person who does whatever she likes freely. She told me many things. I had felt that she is someone trustworthy before we got to know each other well.<br />Kaori: It was amazing how the childish way he talked, his facial expressions, and the content of the conversation could change into a mature one within minutes. It was really cool how he had his own opinions of　his lifestyle, politics, and other things as well.<br /><br /><font color="#0033cc">Ｑ：How did people around you react when they heard that you were marrying a foreigner?</font><br /><br />James: My family and friends had already known that I was interested in Japan and Japanese people. And because it was my own decision, they didn’t really worry too much and were really happy for me.<br />Kaori: Everyone around me was against it. They thought I had made an impulsive decision without thinking about it. Also, they thought that I needed to take an international marriage more seriously than a normal marriage. But ever since they saw us together, my family started to like him and felt more comfortable with our marriage.<br /><br /><font color="#0033cc">Ｑ：Do you plan to stay in Japan?</font><br /><br />James: We’ll be here for a while. I love Japan and there are a lot of things that I want to see, so I’mhappy tostay here as long as I can go back to visit family and friends once in a while.<br />Kaori: Since I’m working, I can not leave Japan. One year of studying there was not enough, so I hope I can go to France when I’m still young and work there if there’s a chance.<br /><br /><font color="#0033cc">Ｑ：Lastly, please say a few words to each other.</font><br /><br />Kaori: (To James)Please make more effort to study Japanese. Also, you should remember how to separate garbage as soon as possible.<br />James: (To Kaori)Let’s live in Paris sometime in the future! (Although I don’t know when that’ll be) </div>      <!-- international_13 -->        <div class="both20"></div>      </div>    <!-- international_14 -->                          <!-- end of left_box -->    </div>  </div><!-- end of pagebody_outline --><!-- international_14 -->
