JAPAN through my eyes

This blog will continue show the photos that I take as I live and vacation in Japan. I particularly love to walk and have a strong interest in Buddhism and Shinto so I will be showing the temples, shrines and other interesting things that I discover.

About Me

My photo
Charles
Nakagawa-machi, Chikush-gun, Fukuoka-ken, Japan
I have lived in Japan since 1976 and now consider it to be my permanent home. I have a very varied background having studied engineering, Japanese and East Asian studies, and education at the university level. I spent ten years in the Army where my job involved Area Studies, mostly in East Asia. When I started to teach in Japan, it was at a post high school level and, after I completed a PhD in education, I moved to a university where I become a full professor. After retiring, I taught part-time but am now completely retired and spend my enjoying myself. I am reasonably fluent in Japanese and at present all of my friends are elderly Japanese.

A quiet spot

This morning, during my 10 km training walk, I took a side path and found this very pleasant little stream. The old unpaved road goes up into the hills to the right. I walk on the new paved road off to the left.
