Konichiwa!
I'm in Japan all summer, and in Kobe for most of the time. In a couple of weeks I'm going to Tokyo. Teaching at English Language summer camps in universities. Japan is very entertaining and very odd. Some of it is great fun (karaoke, puricura, sushi, cartoons everywhere) and all of it is interesting. Sight-seeing-wise, I've been to Himeji, Kyoto, Mt Rokko and Osaka. Tomorrow afternoon we're going for an onsen.
The view from my room is amazing - when I'm on my own computer again I will try and put up some photos or something.
The only art I've done have been gifts for my host families, but I remembered to take a photo of one drawing so again, that will appear here I hope.

I had to post something to shift my last rant

Does anyone have any recommendations of stuff to do in Japan/Tokyo/the countryside to the north of Tokyo?

Suma beach is great!

Take care xxx
