It’s hot out side, the cicadas are making a racket, girls are dressed in Yukatas and letting off fireworks. It’s summer in Japan and perhaps one of the best excuses to slack off from posting anything on Learn Japanese Pod. Well, that’s the story I’m going with. However I thought I should post an update into what’s going on here at the Learn Japanese Pod Professional Recording Studio Language Learning Complex also referred to as “my kitchen”.

I think a quote from the Presidents of the United States Of America is fitting. “Moving to the country, gonna eat a lot of peaches”. It’s true as I am traveling to Yamanashi famous for peaches, beautiful lakes and of course Mount Fuji. I’m going to stay at the Solar Cafe which is part of the Earth Embassy, an organic farm and center for learning about Permaculture and sustainable lifestyles. I’ll be helping out my friend and owner Jake to do some farming, build a house and work on the Earthship project that fell by the way side recently. But I’m also going there to escape Tokyo for a while and recharge the batteries. The Solar Cafe has a spectacular view of Mount Fuji and some awesome hiking and biking trails. It’s going to be fun.

Also if you feel like paying us a visit then come along by all means. There’s a lot to do around there and the more the merrier. Don’t forget we are also doing the Learn Japanese Pod Party here on 29th and 30th August.

So drop me a line at info(at)learnjapanesepod(dot)com. You can also check out the Earth Embassy and Solar Cafe Facebook group or the Earth Embassy homepage for more info.

We’ll also be putting up a few podcasts soon so stay tuned! Take care and have an awesome summer!
