I'm Hana Murphy.

I was born and raised in the States, New Hampshire.

My dad is half Irish and half Japanese, but he was born and raised in the States his whole life, so he spent there his whole life.

And my mom is Japanese.

I moved to Japan when I was seven, and I live here ever since.

Japanese and English, which one's your native language?

When I speak in English, I'm more expressive, but I don't really have the opportunity to speak English so much these days, so I'm more comfortable speaking Japanese.

But when I'm speaking about my emotions, I'm more comfortable speaking in English.

But when I'm talking about, like, vegetables or, like, cooking, like, I'm more comfortable in Japanese.

Depends on the genre.

So, you want to say something in Japanese?

When I speak in Japanese, I'm more quiet, and my voice and tone go up, and I get a cuter vibe.

Which one do you prefer?

I like myself when I speak English more.
