Weekend in countryside





Laurent and I decided to escape from busy Tokyo for a weekend and visited my parents who are spending their summer in countryside. The pictures above are their country house 2 hours away by car/1 hour away by special express train from Tokyo. It's actually perfect escape from Tokyo, not too far to go, not too close.
This house was built last summer and for us it was first time to visit there. We could see a lot of detailed decoration/design my parents wanted to realise.
They said our friends are always welcome there. Actually this place is enjoyable almost every season. In spring, you can enjoy fresh mountain air and golf, in summer, you can escape from hot weather, in automn, you'd see colored leaves and mountains, and finally in winter, you can ski at a ski resort near the house. So, if you come and visit us in Japan, I'll take you there in addition to our flats in Tokyo ;))
