First of all, I would like to thank the teachers and local tour guides and staffs who arranged the Moscow project. Without their help, we cannot successfully carry out the cultural exchange in Moscow. Although the 10-day trip was short, it still brought me good memory, which also broadened my horizons and let me re-recognize Russia.

  On the first day in Russia, we learned some simple Russian, which was very interesting and useful. Unfortunately, the pronunciation of Russian“ p ”was too difficult for me. Until now I am still practicing the pronunciation, and I hope I could speak Russian when I go to Russia next time.

   After language study, we visited the Moscow's world heritage and ancient monasteries.I learned about the religious culture of Russia in the monastery, tasted the food of religion, and really felt the atmosphere of Russian religious culture. Meanwhile, I also visited the very beautiful and fashionable metropolitan area of Moscow and watched the life of the real Russian people.

  Additionally, we were fortunate to visit the Russian National Wildlife Park where we could feel the respect of the Russian government and people to wildlife in the concept of sustainable development and witness their efforts. Cultural exchanges with students at Moscow University also  taught me a lot. Through the communication with the students of Moscow University, I knew their enthusiasm and ambition. I was very glad to introduce them to Kanazawa University and Japanese culture to them as well.

  It is my honor to participate in this cultural exchange event, and then I will use the experiences to contribute to the Kanazawa University, society and my future life what I have seen and learned in Russia.
