Campus Tour

0510
    The study program started on Saturday. After a short orientation on various house keeping matters, students had a chance to meet their Conversation Partners in the first time. This is a wonderful system, that although we are new here, every one has a feeling that they already knew some one in the campus, and many conversations had started even before they arrived.

Day Tour Tokyo

0509    We enjoyed the first day in Tokyo by a fully packed tour. Our walks covered Meiji Shine, Shinjuku and Skytree. At the shine we observed a beautiful wedding ceremony and touch that very famous power-spot; at Shinjuku we escaped a heavy rain and had a good meal of “creative dishes”; and at the Skytree, the unexpected schedule gave us a chance of shopping. Most became extremely tired and the group separated to small ones in Shinjuku at past 7:00pm.
