Hiking Tour Mt. Daimonji 大文字ハイキング

We went and hiked Mt. Daimonji as part of our annual Spring school event! This year we had perfect hiking weather thanks to partly cloudy skies and a cool breeze. While enjoying the natural beauty of Kyoto, students also had the chance to make friends with people from other classes. What did you think of the view of Kyoto from the top of Mt. Daimonji?

 

春の学校行事、大文字山ハイキングツアーに行ってきました。

今年は、日差しも強くなく、風もあり、ハイキングにはちょうどいい天気でした。自然を満喫しながら、クラス以外の学生たちとも交流ができたようです。大文字山から見た京都はどうでしたか?

Discover Kyoto Program 1 - Zen Temple & Kinkakuji

Discover Kyoto Program Zen Temple, Shojin Cuisine, & Kinkakuji

On April 28 (Sat) the first Discover Kyoto Program event was held! This year’s event combined last year’s Zazen meditation and Shojin cuisine event with a visit to Kinkakuji for an exciting day filled with new experiences. Not only that, but this year 11 Japanese university students joined us! With equal numbers of Japanese students and Nihongo Center students, everyone was able to make friends and communicate easily. During the Zazen meditation many students complained of their legs becoming numb. In English, this sensation is often described as one’s legs “falling asleep.” In French and Indonesian, people describe it as “ants crawling” on one’s skin. The differences in each country’s language are interesting, don’t you think?



ディスカバー京都プログラム 【禅寺と精進料理+金閣寺】

4月28日(土)ディスカバー京都プログラム2012の第1弾が行われました。昨年の坐禅体験+精進料理に金閣寺を加えてバージョンアップ。しかも今年は、日本の大学生が11名も参加してくれたので、1対1で日本の大学生との交流ができました。なんと贅沢!坐禅体験では、「足がしびれた」学生も何名かいたようですが、この「しびれる」は、英語では「眠る」、フランス語やインドネシア語では「アリがはう」。国によって違うのも面白いですね。
