When I was 10 years old, I took part in a 29 nights and 30 days camp in summer break. About 30 children camped in the forest, challenged many programs given by trainers and had valuable and interesting experiences. We cycled 84 kilometers by bicycle in 2 days, milked a cow, made an open-air bath by using hinoki, built a tree house and so forth. We could not meet our parents until the end of the camp. It was really hard for me to live without my family at that time. In addition, I was the youngest in the camp members so I often cried alone at night in a tent. Although there were many hard and difficult things to overcome and I felt like quitting and going home many times, I worked together with others and finally reached the end of the camp. I gained confidence in my own ability to challenge things that is hard to achieve through this camp.
Thank you:)
Hi, Natsuki!

It seems that this experience is the one of the most crucial cornerstone of your life.
