Hokkaido Trip

Last month, I took off and went to Furano, Hokkaido.
(One and half hour from Tokyo)
It was off-season time and most of shops were closed but still I enjoyed it.
The nature is wonderful and it's so not Japan. I love Hokkaido.

Beautiful Lightning in Omotesando.
In Japan, Christmas is especially for couples.
Awful time for singles!

"Herb & Dorothy"

Last Sunday I went to see documentary movie called "Herb & Dorothy".

It's a story of  Mr.& Mrs. Vogel, who used to be a postel cleark and librarian, collected works of unknown artists with their small amount of salary for over 30 years. Most of unknown artists became super stars in Art world afterwards so they could have sold their collections to make billions but they just donated all of them to museum!

The movie was very heart-warmed and I liked it. Above all they were so adorable!
