A trip to Hokkaido

Good Morning everyone!

 

It’s December again and we all can’t wait for the winter holiday’s fun to begin. Students and teachers! Hang in there. We’ve got only one more week of school left.

 

Around this time of the year, I think a lot about my hometown, Toronto. I love spending Christmas and New Year’s there because Toronto is always covered in snow all winter long. So our Christmas is always beautiful and white.

 

This year I cannot go back home during winter. But I was lucky to spend four days in Hokkaido instead. It felt just like home and made me so happy! I visited three cities in Hokkaido; Hakodate, Sapporo and Otaru.

 

                                                                        Snow in Sapporo!

Sapporo is a lot like Toronto. First, it’s a big modern city with lots of people rushing around all the time. Second, it is cold and snowy around this time. And last, it is great for shopping and has excellent food!

If you have never visited Hokkaido in winter, please do!

 It’ll be an experience of a lifetime.

 

Everyone, have a happy New Year

and enjoy your winter holidays!
