I have visited Japan several times, but the most impressive was  Hokkaido. The snow we saw at the Sapporo Snow Festival was so pretty.  And Japanese food is delicious! I like a bowl of rice served with eel  and katsu-dong. I’m now studying Japanese watching Japanese animation or  listening to J-pop. I look forward to meeting Japanese fans!
