Nasushiobara city, Nishinasuno

In commemoration of my first official post, I’m gonna make everyone take in a deep breath and exhale all the dirty air you have in your lungs! Ready? Go!

Ahh… that feels good :D

Introducing 栃木県、那須塩原市、西那須野
(translate: Tochigi prefecture, Nasushiobara city, Nishinasuno)
It was a stranger to me, yet after a month in this peaceful town, I must admit this is love! This is where I first got off the shinkasen. My apartment is so close the train station that I hear the shinkasen pass by every 15mins! Sometimes I could see sparks flying off the wires.. すごいでしょう?

My friends would say ‘welcome to the country!’ haha, and it is really the country! The greenery here is enough to take your breath away (oh-hold-your-breath) so country that a car is a necessity. This is not Tokyo! Oh noes!! God bless those who invented bikes! But that’s not gonna take me far for kendo <.<


Now into some sweet cravings I’m looking atm:

森菓チョコモナカジャンボ ¥126

Yummy… it says JUMBO! on the wrapper. It was sizzling hot outside so I decided to get an ice cream. This creation of wafer wrap with chocolate crunch and vanilla ice cream is a heaven!!! The fact that Morinaga’s chocolate only sells at ¥80 at a local supermarket, this is enough to satisfy my choco cravings!
