English Translation

Hello everyone! We had quite a few rainy days here in Nagoya. But finally, the sun came out again after a while! Since the weather was nice, I decided to go forest bathing and spend some time in nature.
Because it was after the flooding, the paths were still muddy, so walking was a little difficult. But it was wonderful to be surrounded by nature again!

In the forest, sunlight was shining through the leaves of the trees, and it was absolutely beautiful.
This beautiful sunlight filtering through the trees is called komorebi in Japanese. Many people love komorebi, and I can definitely see why!
I found myself thinking, “I want to work surrounded by this gentle light!”
There was something so peaceful about it. Watching the komorebi made me feel calm and relaxed.

Then, I spotted a pair of pheasants in the grass! They were walking around together, and they were so cute.
It’s quite rare to see wild pheasants, so I felt really lucky!
Being able to encounter wild animals is definitely one of the wonderful things about spending time in nature.

And finally, in the evening, I got to see a beautiful sunset.
The colors of the sky gradually changed, and it was such a lovely sight!
After all the rain and the flooding, I had been feeling a little down. But spending time in nature helped me feel refreshed and renewed.
I definitely want to go for another walk in nature soon!
