Hi from Takayama

I'm Sanae. I have lived in Takayama for 4 and a half years starting Oct. 2014 till March 2019. I enjoyed living in such a beautiful city surrounded by mountains. Here is a blog that shares the happy times I had in Takayama.

My new place is Anjo, Aichi, but I'm too much in love with Takayama, I will continue adding some more infos about Takayama, plus I will be adding some updates about my new place as well.

Also, my life has been about "moving" everywhere!! Believe it or not, this was my 14th time to move and I thought there are a lot to share about my "moving life." There are some special things that I see and experience by living in different cities not just in Japan but in other countries as well!!

Cheers to new findings!!

さなえです。２０１４年１０月～２０１９年３月まで岐阜県高山市で過ごしました。山に囲まれた美しいこの町が大好きです。

実はすでに高山を出てしまいました。が、この先も時々高山インフォメーションをアップしつつ、近辺（愛知）の様子もお伝えしていこうと思います。

そうそう、それと
何を隠そう、今回の引越は人生で１４度目の引越！あちこちと動き回ったものです。遠距離への引越はもちろん、同じ市内の引越であっても、違う角度から見る空は、全然違っていて、人生をがらっと変えてしまうことすらあります。「当たり前」の明日が来ない生活、大変なことも多いけど、学ぶこともたくさん！そんな「引っ越しあるある」も時々シェアしていきますね。

マムシグサ Jack-in-the-pulpit

On the way back home after the river walk on May 3rd,
we took the mountain route and
enjoyed observing the plants and flowers!!

It's always fun to take photos of the beautiful flowers,
look for the names and learn about it afterwords with kids.

5月3日の川散歩の帰りは山ルートで
（かなり大回りなルートなんですが）
植物の観察をエンジョイしました。

写真を撮り、見つけた植物について
帰宅してから子供たちと調べるのも
楽しみのひとつです。


we found out that the green flower is a species of Jack-in-the-pulpit
この植物マムシグサと言うそうです

    How to did of you is very extraodinary! Cuz you and children examine plant's name together. I think your children feels enjoyed.

      Hi Tomo,
      I was wondering too why its Japanese name is called "mamushi gusa." I found out that it is because the pattern of the stem somewhat looks like mamushi. I didn't take an up close shot of the stem so we can't really tell. I believe, that kids should learn as much as they can in actual life than just on text books. They need to sense things by seeing, touching, and smelling as well, don't you think? Also, I make them walk a lot because I don't want them to reach the destination in an easy way. But of course, I do it only when I have time!!
