Hello! I am Kei, studying sports health while capturing adventure photography. On this blog, I share the photos I’ve taken in nature and the experiences I’ve had during my travels, along with the feelings these moments have evoked.

This is my first adventure photo! It’s a picture of the Watarase River, which flows through my hometown of Ashikaga City in Tochigi Prefecture, along with the sunrise. The location where I took this photo is called Karayado Green Space, a place where I used to practice basketball as a child. It’s also a popular spot for people who enjoy camping and fishing.

This photo was taken near the Matsudagawa Dam in Ashikaga. In the vicinity of the dam, there is a campsite called RECAMP Ashikaga (Matsudagawa Dam Fureai Hiroba), where you can enjoy camping while feeling connected to nature. It’s an interesting place because the scenery changes completely depending on the season.

This photo is a combination of two images. The location is Ashikaga School, Japan's oldest school. Here, they value the concept of 'Jin' (benevolence) as taught by Confucius. 'A heart of compassion' – this is very important. The photo shows the place when it was illuminated at night. This light-up event is a rare sight, only taking place for about two weeks starting from November 1st.

Finally, I would like to share what I thought while creating this blog. I came to the conclusion that 'The greatest adventure for us humans is life itself.' There will be many things that happen in my future university life and in the life I will begin once I start working. I believe this is what an adventure is. And I think we must enjoy it. As my English teacher, Paul, once said, 'Just try!' I believe this phrase is the most fitting for enjoying the adventure of life. Therefore, I will do my best to enjoy this adventure to the fullest while 'just trying.'

Thank you for visiting my blog. I hope that as many people as possible see this and enjoy the adventure of life.
