English language school in the heart of the Japanese Alps, and English language learners sharing their experiences online.

Students post on whatever takes their fancy - book reports, festivals in home towns, postcards from business trips etc. A little Brit of England in the guts of Japan!

Postcard from Fukuoka
Dear Laura, Yukari and Hirokatsu
I'm on my holiday in Fukuoka and Nagasaki Prefecture, it's fine weather.
Today, I went to "Gunkanjima" in Nagasaki Prefecture. Known as Gunkanjima, Hashima is an island that once flourished in the coal industry. It was registered as a World Heritage site in 2015. It's a shame that what used to prosper is going away.
I can't say in a word, I felt I can't say anything. It's a place I want you to go to everyone. I'm enjoying everyday.
See you next week,
Chikako

A postcard from Taiwain
Dear Damian, Yukari, HirokatsuI am in Taiwan now. It's late summer holiday. I went to Jiufen. Do you know Jiufen? This place is said to have become a model of Japanese movie 'Spirited Away'. I am enjoying everyday.
See you next week.
