Jordan Langen
Hello!
My name is Jordan and I am living on a small rural island in Hiroshima Prefecture. It's in Kure city and the name of the island is Kurahashi. The scenery is super beautiful, the food is delicious and the people are so nice. I enjoy raising chickens, having a garden and interacting with the local people. One of my favorite activities is hiking up the local mountain and going to the hotspring after! Please come visit Kurahashi Island! I would love to show you around!
