Here in Japan’s Kanto region, where I live, we recently broke the record for the longest stretch of rain, with 34 consecutive rainy days. But finally, we’re enjoying refreshing blue skies that truly feel like autumn♪

In Japan, autumn is often called the season of “appetite,” “reading,” and “sports.”
Since Japan is in the Northern Hemisphere, the nights will gradually become longer from now on. That makes autumn the perfect season to stay cozy at home, read a book, immerse yourself in your favorite hobbies, enjoy delicious seasonal foods, and… study Japanese! (haha) ♪♪
 

I absolutely love autumn because the weather is so comfortable for going out and taking walks, the sounds of insects are beautiful, and there are so many delicious foods to enjoy(*´꒳`*)
 

Why don’t we talk about these little things in our everyday lives, the small moments of happiness, and the delicious seasonal foods of autumn in your country (みかく = special foods and delicacies associated with autumn) during our lesson? ٩( 'ω' )و

Autumn is filled with so many delicious things, so let’s have fun improving your Japanese, too♪
I’m looking forward to seeing you in my lesson ^ ^/
