The recent earthquake was such a disaster in Hokkaido… But amidst the avalanches, broken roads collapsed houses, the Japanese spirit of resilience to such hardships is amazing and truly shines through. This past summer, I had the chance to visit Hokkaido for the first time. Although visiting Sapporo is arguably the most popular for first-time visitors to Hokkaido, I wanted to explore the much less traveled Eastern Hokkaido, famous locally for its three volcanic lakes, Lake Akan, Lake Mashu, Lake Kussharo, and Mt. Io. In this post, I hope you will enjoy visiting Lake Kussharo with me!
北海道の最近の地震は本当に残念なことですね…しかし、土砂崩れ、家屋や道路の崩壊があった中、苦難から直ぐに立ち直ろうとする日本の精神は素晴らしいと思います。私は、今夏 初めて北海道を訪れました。札幌は人気がありますが、私が訪れたのは道東の３つの火山湖（阿寒湖、摩周湖、屈斜路湖）と硫黄山です。 今回は屈斜路湖について書きたいと思います～
Have you ever seen or heard of the “Akebi” fruit (or chocolate vine)? Apparently, it is considered one of the Autumn delicacies in Japan. Bold and bright purple, it caught my eye when I saw it for the first time at my local supermarket. Was it a fruit? A vegetable? A potato? Having never seen anything like the Akebi before, I was curious about how it would taste and shelled out about 400 yen to take some home with me and give it a try.
皆様、「アケビ」という果物を食べたことがあるでしょうか？秋の味覚の1つは「あけび」らしいです。先日、スーパーマーケットに行った時、初めて見つけました。このような大きさは長さが10cmくらいで、紫色の果物は初めて見ました。紫色が好きですし、果物も面白そうですから、食べてみたいかなぁと考えながら、アケビを買いました。

Recently, I went with a big group of 20 friends to try rafting down the Okutama river! Although rafting is not exactly the most popular activity associated with Autumn, it was so much fun to try this activity in the Tokyo Metropolitan area for the first time!
最近、私は２０人の友達と一緒に奥多摩のラフティングに挑戦しました！秋はラフティングのイメージがないかもしれませんが、秋でしか感じることのできない雰囲気も意外に楽しかったです♪
