The best of my adventures: Kanazawa
Anastasiia Serykh
Altai State University
Basic Science Program
I have to say that I've never been abroad, so this experience was my first time so far away from home. And in despite of my initial excitement, it was really incredible days.
The first thing was airplane flights: I've seen Japan at the height of bird flight. I could't wait for the moment when I would see everything at arm's length.

Then we were transported to the dormitory. It's a nice building in the picturesque place. So there I really understood how Japanese love nature. After some time I was convinced that in this country people care about nature so much.

Beautiful Garden
After a few days my scientific studying had begun. Throughout this course I've learned a lot of new and interesting things in the field of Astrophysics. At the end of my course I presented my research and received an internship certificate.
But there wasn't only studying but also rest and exploring.
I visited so many cultural places: historical and modern museums, gardens, different outdoor attractions and even I tried swimming in the sea. Due to this activites I've learned much more about rich Japanese culture.

One of the most memorable impression is a journey to Akihabara.
