The flying squirrel boy

Person's smiling face and the thirties when a flying squirrel is loved. I see the form that a flying squirrel flies dynamically for the first time and am moved after Picchio entrance. After a while is being witnessed so that you can't finish counting its form by the "flying squirrel watching of which one takes charge, too which flies in the air but I'm giving a shout of joy with "O" by mind in the travel.
School days play an active part as a goalkeeper of soccer. I put it on as a goalkeeper, "A loud cry is raised." "The whole is looked around.", the ability is also useful for work of a natural observation guide. It's always positive and modest vigorously.

Picchio: The specialist group of eco-tourism which does research of wild animals and plants using Karuizawa as a foothold and does preservation activity as well as does an ecology tour and environmental education. It's to tell amusement of the forest, wonder and irreplaceable and raises the economical value of the forest, and I'm aiming to be leaving a forest to condition posterity of the form of the forest.

Local Guide FAQ

Recommendation in a Karuizawa area, (Place, Experience and gourmet?): Trekking in small Asama (Mr. KOA and, oh.) Though it's a journey of one way for a little less than 1 hour, you can wish with Asama where Karuizawa is a symbol approaching soon. You can get a bird's-eye view of a town in Karuizawa under the eyes. The best spot which can sense natural grandness of Karuizawa easily.

Because I live there, please tell me the happy hunting ground you know secretly.: In the south Karuizawa area, from a place (HOTCHI). The traditional country landscape of Karuizawa spreads. It's possible to take a picture of Asama by the whole view, it's also the great photo spot from which I hid. I visit every season with my friend and the family and am enjoying photography of various cuts, too.

Where did you travel with whom last year?: I took 1 year old and my 2-year-old son and went to Okinawa by 4 family. Children think they're gladdest about a whale shark of "CHURA sea aquarium", and Mori of Jan Ball who did wearing and a jungle expedition seems to have made an impression most. I found blood of my natural observation guide to be inherited.

What is being done and spent on an absent day?: It's to walk a forest near the house and a mountain with my sons and find nuts and creature together that it's most fun now. Well, eldest son doesn't like bugs though he's a son of a natural observation guide. How do you make it a bug lover or be working out a scheme?

Is there something to take to travel certainly?: The binoculars to find a creature. A sea is being always also carried at a travel destination at a mountain, so I'm changing into the part of the body.
When being lost, it's the excellent thing which can read a far sign.
