Hi, I’m Hitoshi. I live in Ogawa Town in Saitama. I had been teaching English at some high schools in this region for 38 years. So I know many beautiful places to visit for people who love nature, walking hills and streams, cycling along the rivers, enjoying running 10-km courses surrounded by paddy fields, local cuisines, ramen shops, hamburger shops, local micro breweries, educational facilities, Buddhism temples, Japanese hand-made craft paper factories, and many others.
