Dear Friends, こんにちは(*'ω'*) I am AKIKO from Japan! I love travelling. I spent most of my time for travelling in my 20s. I used to travel mainly in Asian countries and Europe. And I also used to live in out side of Japan. Traveling is one of the most amazing experience in life time I think. Because "traveling" gives us more chance to meet many different kind of people, so we can learn how we can make our life more better and brighter. If you are in Japanese language or culture, I am happy to share culture also language too^^ I used to work as a Japanese teacher in Taiwan and Hong Kong.
