Since moving to the Kansai District, my daily life has finally begun to settle.
I remain grateful for the continued support from my seniors and classmates from my alma mater.

I recently attended the Hyogo–University of Tokyo Administrative Forum,
a calm and thoughtful gathering where participants discussed the future of Hyogo.

The keynote speech by Mayor Hisamoto, a senior from my alma mater,
outlined the many directions the city aims to pursue.
Among them, the initiative to develop a medical industry city left a strong impression.
How a city envisions its future directly shapes the lives and health of its residents—
a theme I hope to continue learning about as a physician.

One idea that resonated deeply was:
“A city’s value is defined by its infrastructure.”
Transportation, healthcare, education, and living environments form the quiet foundation of daily life.

I also enjoyed reconnecting with younger members of the
University of Tokyo Tomato Tennis Club.
Talking about shared memories while discussing the region’s future
was both enjoyable and quietly nostalgic.

Reflecting on urban development naturally leads to the question:
What kind of environment allows people to live well?

Medicine, daily life, culture, and infrastructure—
I hope to contribute to the region where these elements connect naturally.
