Lisa.Y

Today we spoke about the kingsday celebrations on Saturday and my long walk on Sunday. I had a lot to teel this week haha :-D Lisa then showed me pictures she took in a flower garden yesterday. They looked very pretty!

Today we first spoke about what I did last weekend. I spend a day in the Hague with my Japanese friend. Lisa then told me she read an article about the Netherlands and we started to read it together. It was interesting to read about a Japanese persons perspective about the dutch culture. There were some difficult kanji, but luckily Lisa could explain the meaning of things when I didn't understand. Let's do this again next time! :-D

Today we spoke about onigiri. There are a lot of different types of onigiri that I was not aware of. It's interesting to learn about new dishes that I can try on my next trip :-D Lisa sensei also showed me the sakura trees around a castle that she visited. they are so pretty! I'm looking forward to the next lesson!

Today Lisa sensei showed pictures of her trip to Hikone. The lit up cherry blossoms looked very beautiful against the backdrop of the castle. And the swan swimming behind the boat looked very cute. We also read the article again which we started to read last week. There were some difficult kanji in there but with the help of Lisa sensei I was able to understand the meaning of the tekst. Let's do this some more next week! :-)

Today we spoke about some difficult topics, but it was very informative and I'm glad I can have these kinds of conversations with Lisa sensei. I feel like we can talk about any topic and have a supportive conversation that leaves us both very happy every time. Let's continue our conversations for a long time Lisa sensei! :-) I'm already looking forward to our next conversation!!

Today we spoke about school rules. It is interesting to compare the strict Japanese rules with the almost non existing rules of Dutch school!! XD Trying to explain all the different levels of dutch schools was interesting. Our system is a bit complicated :-) Overal today was a lot of fun. I'm looking forward to the next lesson! :-)
