Free Time in Japan

Most of my time these past 3-4 months have been spent teaching full time at a private English school. This post is about some of the other things going on in my free time. Most of these photos are from Facebook. I wanted to have them all in one place on my blog.

I've been teaching seniors at a monthly conversation class in Tachikawa. They are so much fun to work with and eager to improve. 

 

We look like giants compared to our students. Old Japanese people are short. The lady in front of me is 87 years old. 

I accompanied Derek on one of his pre-dawn hikes up Mt Takao. We had the place to ourselves.

A few holiday parties. 

And of course I played Santa Clause.
