My side of Japan...


This is a map of Daigo-machi and the surrounding area. I will be somewhere in Daigo for the coming year, teaching English in the public school system. Its a pretty neat area, from what I've been able to gather.

There are hot springs all around... Japan being a not-so-dormant volcanic island, after all. It gets so cold in the winter, though, that nearby Fukuroda no-taki, which is Fukuroda Falls, the third most beautiful waterfall in Japan, freezes solid. People even ice climb up it apparently!
Well, that's the breakdown on my little village. As always, if you're reading this, you've got a place to stay when you come to visit Nihhon! Sayonara <{><

Our small group has been praying for you. I actually forgot but they haven't. Hope you are well.

BTW. So I give you a lady's contact info and you don't even keep me in the loop of what is going on? Come on.
