I attended to visit to America 3 years ago, But because of Corora virus, I had canceled this tour. Perhaps i will go to America once time someday. This is my big dream . Im working at japan .This is a chance to I can travel everywhere at japan by train or Car. As you know, Japan is so beautiful in autumn. You can see red Mojiji leaf , even golden Pogoda in Kyoto.

I have never traveled by plane in my life because I wouldn’t have the necessity to do it but I would like to do it in the future, I think it would be interesting to visit some European countries and Asian countries to get to know different cultures and ways of living in those parts of the world.

Thanks for the episode.
Great site!
