What countries do you want to visit?
My husband has always dreamed of going to Japan (as have I). I promised him when we married that one day I would make his dream come true. Just like he had fulfilled mine – countryside living (semi urban), a beautiful garden and family.
I grew up in a small village and loved the cherry blossom tree which grew outside my mother’s home. I always watched it with wonder and loved the beauty of the pink petals which scattered each May. I was saddened when the tree was removed.
I learned about Japan at primary school and was fascinated with the food, culture, nature, and environment.
I had my first experience with origami and later in life decided to try it again. As frustrating as the folds can be, it is great for a mindful activity and to embrace the present moment.
