The Real Japan

My life may be a little bit different to yours. I live in Yamagata Prefecture on the north-west coast of the northern part of Honshu in Japan, have done so since 2010. This place has everything you need; beaches for the summer and ski fields for the winter. This blog talks about what life is like here so that people can get an understanding of the real Japan, not just what goes on in Tokyo and Kyoto. But more importantly, this blog is about me.

俺の生活はおそらくあなたのと全然違います。2010年以降東北に位置する山形県の西海岸に在住中。ここって人生にすべての必要なのがある。夏は海で冬はスキー所。このブロッグは東京と京都意外の本当の日本を分かってくれるために書きます。でも最も大事なのは、このブロッグは俺についてです。

ENJOYED THIS? HAVE MORE.
