The memory of her grandfather (Spanish)
(Spanish) I got along well with my grandfather; he died when I was a little girl. I was ten years old when he died. Therefore, the relationship never reached the level of adulthood, perhaps…we never talked, I never asked him anything, [for example] grandpa…how did you feel when you arrived here all alone?...No, because I was too young. But now I remember him…and we had a very nice relationship, and he was very reserved, very quiet…I have the image of a typical Japanese man, perhaps very quiet…but also very kind and very open….
