Camping by Lake Near the Mt.Fuji

When I was a junior high school student, I went to camping by lake near the Mt.Fuji with my family. Mt.Fuji is most famous mountain in Japan. This is famous as extremely beautiful form mountain.

We got on a canoe and rowed it by ourselves. It was really exiting!! On the canoe, we saw past lava and Mt.Fuji very close. These view let me think about eruption of Mt.Fuji. It was super interesting. After we got canoe, unfortunately we noticed someone stolen my croquette for dinner. I lost my dinner!! But amazingly my father decided to cook curry and went to shop to buy ingredients of curry. Then, my mum and I cooked curry, and my dad and my brothers cooked rice!! That curry was very delicious! I was so happy:) After eating curry, we grilled some marshmallow for dessert. This travel was absolutely amazing trip for me!!

Hi everyone!!

This is my first blog. I would like to write about myself. My name is Tomoyo Kawashima. I am from Tokyo in Japan. Tokyo and Missoula have a lot of differs, so I am always be surprising. In order to get strong English skill, I decided to this study abroad. I want to get English skills (especially speaking and reading sections) by when I go back Japan. If someone finds how to effectively study English, please, please teach me too.

I have a lot of hobbies. Since when I was Japan, I like dancing Hawaiian Hula, watching animation, and fashion. I started learning hula dance about one year ago. Dancing hula makes me relax and happy. My favorite animation movie is Disney movie. I want to enjoy Disney movie in English someday. I also like Japanese animations too.

After I came to Missoula, I got more hobbies. I became like hiking, climbing and playing at the outside thanks of Missoula’s nature. While I am here, I want to make a lot of friends and join outdoor activities with them.

Maybe everyone doesn’t know that my made up face and my natural are totally different. I have to wake up early to make up my face every day.

Thank you!!
