Hello! I’m Naru, a Japanese teacher on italki! 🇯🇵✨ ​Today, I’d like to take you on a quick virtual trip to Lake Akan in Hokkaido! 🌲🦌 ​1️⃣ First, my monkey friend Naru made a new friend—holding hands with "Marimo-kun" by the lake! 🟢🐒 2️⃣ While walking near the Visitor Center, we were so lucky to spot 7 wild deer! 🦌✨ 3️⃣ I also visited the Ainu Kotan to experience the rich heritage and traditional crafts of the indigenous Ainu people. 🪵 4️⃣ Lake Akan is truly full of beautiful nature, wildlife, and unique culture! ​Have you ever learned about indigenous cultures in other countries? Let’s talk about nature, travel, and Japanese culture in our next lesson! 🗣️💬 ​#italki #LearnJapanese #JapaneseTeacher #LakeAkan #AinuCulture #Hokkaido #Marimo #JapanTravel #NaruSensei
