Saturday Picture Post: Shizukuishi Fureai Talk

On September 26th I took part in an international exchange event in Shizukuishi. It was called Fureai talk. Including myself, thirteen foreigners participated in the event. We had the chance to go to a local hot spring, make Japanese sweets and meet with the children living in the area. That night, we were taken to our host family's house and had a great time (My host mom was the same age as me... ). The next day we had a two hour discussion about mangas and the chance to do calligraphy. I personally skipped that and went home, as I was not feeling so well. Here are the pictures!
