Risa is in Sendai over Easter holidays - she plans to report us what she sees, while she's working as a volunteer.
Here is her first impression of her hometown:
"I arrived Sendai a few hours ago after 17 hours journey. (London- Narita(tokyo)- Haneda(tokyo)- Sendai (just outside of the city); journey was not bad actually)
Sendai airport is the place where over 1000 people were stuck on the upper floors after Tsunami struck on 11th of March.
When I stood on the landing step of the airplane, I felt the mud smell in the air.
The airport has partially re-opened for 10 days, but the scenary around the airport is just awful and shocking- devastated land with flames of houses, upsidedown cars, rubbish...not the city I knew any more."
