2017年ありがとう。
こんにちは！(English after Japanese)
もうすぐ2017年が終わりますね。
11〜12月は、あっという間でした。
充実してたから早く感じた、というわけではなくて、日々のルーティーンを毎日繰り返しているうちに、気付けば年の瀬、みたいな感じでした。
あまりやる気が出ない最近ですが、”寒いから”ということにして、暖かくなるまでは、大人しく過ごそうと思います。
そんな最近ですが、一年を通して考えると、今年はとても充実してたかなと。
Hello!
Now 2017 has almost finished.
Time flies always. But especially in November to December, it was very fast for me.
I don't think it was because of fulfillment. I just did my routine work then I found that 2017 was almost finished. I've enjoyed my life though.
I don't have much motivation and I'm little bit lazy recently. But I hope it is because of such a cold weather. So when spring will come, maybe I'll be better...

31 January. The ship departed from Yokohama, Japan. I cried because I was so happy.

2/10 ニュージーランド寄港。バヌアツとは打って変わって、大きな首都。なんだか地元の札幌に似ている気がした。

2/28 太平洋のどこか。毎日見ても、海は見飽きなかった。どこまでも続く青く透き通った海、船を囲まれるように広がる満天の星空、時たま出会えるカモメやクジラ、イルカ…贅沢な日々だった。
28 February. Somewhere in the Pacific Ocean. I didn't tire of sea although I'd seen it everyday. Beautiful blue sea, the sky filled with stars, beautiful animals we saw sometimes like seagulls, dolphin and whale...It was really wonderful and amazing days.
一緒に旅したSWY family。
My SWY family. We traveled about a month on the ship. They were really awesome.

29 July. Lake Victoria, the largest lake in Africa. I was really excited when I imagined there were another countries beyond the lake.

こうして振り返ってみると、国内も海外も色々な場所に行って、たくさんの出会いがあって、本当に充実の一年だったなぁと思いました。
学びも多かったし、成長出来た(と思う)し、何より楽しかった！
辛い思いもしたけど、思い出は美化されるのが常で…。
来年も、行きたいとこたくさん行って、楽しいことたくさんやって、出来るだけ毎日ハッピーに生きていきます。
周りの人もハッピーにできたらもっと素敵だな、なんて思ったり。
今日も読んで下さり、ありがとうございました！
皆さんよいお年を！！
After I looked back this year, I found that I visited many places and I met a lot of wonderful friends. Now I know it was really happy one yeah for me.
I learned a lot, various experiences made me mature at least, anyway I had so much fun time.
Although sometimes I had a difficult time, but it seems that memories are more beautiful than real...
So next year, like this year, I will visit many places I want to visit, I will do many things I want to do, I will enjoy every as possible as I can.
Also I hope I will make my friends around me happy.
Thank you very much for reading!
Warm wishes for the glorious coming year!
