First winter in Nagasaki

We have passed through a very wonderful winter in Nagasaki. Although temperature is not comfortable for us, we try to find optimistic ways to enjoy the weather. Now outside is -2 Celsius degree and we have snow now. We heard that this is the first snow in Nagasaki for 15 years. So, we think we are so lucky to have chance to enjoy snow.

Our university now

And here is our dormitory - Snow everywhere 

 We joined snow activities with Japanese friends in our dormitory

And here is our achievement ^^

First New year holiday in Japan

We have gone through a very wonderful New year in Japan.  A first day of New year, we went to Shimabara with our special friend - Michiko. She and her son took us there and we all together watched the sunrise. Wonderful!!! It made us fell peace, refreshed all our soul and let it be ready for a new year coming.

After that, they took us to their house and invited us enjoy their first meal. Again, we were really surprising. Many food were served and we could not eat all. Michiko asked us to bring to our house :D

Our special friends - Michiko and her son

A groaning board they gave us

We voted this is the best delicious food ^^

It was really a wonderful memories. We are all student who study abroad and live far away from our family, sometimes we feel homesick, our friends here have helped us overcome this bad feeling. This special friendship makes us be more strong and give us many special things to our student life in Japan. Thank you Michiko, thank you Japan.

Wishing you a year filled with great joy peace and prosperity. Happy New Year 2016.
