Hi fara chan!
Thank you for your post
In summer, we have lots of hurricanes (in Japanese 台風: taihuu); generally, however, they pass just south part of Japan.
As for earthquake... it is frequent, but usually it is very weak: we sometimes do not notice there is one.
Luckily, my hometown is not in the route of hurricane. On the other hand, we have rather frequent earthquake. Still, I never feel my house is in danger. I have a friend who lives in Kagoshima, where hurricanes frequently pass; she never says she'd like to move to somewhere. Though it sounds dangerous, we get accustomed to these natural disasters
