hei!

I was really bored at the moment and needed to find a place to post at. I'd been meaning to look for another Japan forum to post at so here I am!

I'd seen this place before an had been meaning to sign up...and finally just now did.

I'm from Hot Springs Arkansas. I got to go to Japan because Hanamaki is our Sister City and it's been over three years since then. I miss Japan.

Even the clouds of that bad ole typhoon which seems to slowly sliding up the western coast of Honshu can not keep out all of the sunshine !! The fantastic and inspiring Japan Alps look even all the more dramatic with the casting of shadows, sprinkled around with blotches of bright sunlight...all dancing along the mountain sides.

WELCOME to JREF !! Maybe some day you can come back over here and enjoy. I have been to your nick of the woods, and have even taking a few dips there in those hot springs. We have a bunch of them up here in Shinshu (Nagano) as well.

Have fun on the forum. I'm sure you won't be too bored after that!! MM

Welcome enjoy!
