Jere, thank you for your heartwarming message! I was truly happy to spend the last day of your stay in Japan together with all of you. We had a great view of Mt. Fuji, and it really was a fulfilling and memorable day in Hakone. You were like superstars, surrounded by local middle school students on the cruise! I’m looking forward to seeing you again someday.

Thank you, Maya! It was truly a great pleasure meeting you and your son. I feel very happy to have spent such a wonderful and memorable time together. I really enjoyed our conversations about culture, religion, and peace. Your son has such a bright future ahead of him. I was very impressed by his knowledge of math, geography, English, and even Pokémon Go! During the 6 hours, we visited the fish market, a Japanese garden, a shrine, a fashion street, and even a maid cafe! We also bought chopsticks and enjoyed delicious ramen and gyoza. I was especially amazed that he still had so much energy even after walking 15,000 steps! Please take good care of yourselves, and I truly hope to see you again someday!

Fumio san, thank you very much for joining the Tokyo Tower tour despite your busy schedule. I hope you were able to relax and take many beautiful photos. Please take good care of yourselves! Arigato Gozaimashita!!
