☀️🏐 May 30 Beach Volleyball Highlights 🌊

What a fantastic day at the beach!

We were excited to welcome a fun crowd and see many familiar faces returning for the summer season. One of the best parts of this time of year is reconnecting with friends we don't see as often during the winter months. It always feels like summer has officially arrived when those familiar beach faces start showing up again. 😊

The day was filled with volleyball games, laughter, conversations, and plenty of time to relax by the ocean. Whenever things got a little too warm, the sea was right there to cool us down.

As the afternoon turned into evening, we were treated to one of those classic Shonan moments—a beautiful sunset with Mt. Fuji standing proudly in the background. Watching the sun go down over the beach with great people, good conversations, and volleyball in the sand made for a pretty special (and maybe a little romantic) atmosphere. 🌅🗻

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped create such a wonderful day. We can't wait to do it all again in July!

See you on the beach! 🏖️🏐☀️

As the 2025–2026 ski season comes to a close, we want to say a big THANK YOU to everyone who joined us this winter.

We kicked things off in Naeba, helping beginners get started with free rentals and their first turns on the snow, and continued on to Nozawa, Madarao/Tangram, and Shiga Kogen. Each trip brought its own highlights, but what really made this season special was the people — from fun days on the slopes to relaxed evenings and lively nights.

It wasn’t the easiest start, and the snow conditions weren’t always on our side. Still, the energy, friendships, and shared experiences made it a truly memorable season. Snow-wise, we’ll hope for better next year — but when it comes to the people, it couldn’t have been better.

The good news? We’re not done yet.

Starting in April, we’ll be launching our spring tours, exploring Japan’s beautiful flowers, cherry blossoms, and must-see destinations.

If you’d like to join us for the next adventure, check out our website or upcoming events!

Thanks again for being part of this season — we hope to see you again soon!

Throwback to our February 13 snow trip! ❄️

For this trip our bus split the group between two great ski destinations. One group headed to Madarao Kogen to enjoy the slopes and powder, while the other stayed in Nozawa Onsen to ski, explore the village, and enjoy the beautiful winter atmosphere. 🎿🏂

Different mountains, different experiences — but everyone reunited on the bus back to Tokyo after a fantastic day in the snow.
