Topic 1: Balcony gardening

Actually, I have just moved to new house from the end of March.
One of the decisive reasons why I chose this residence is the balcony of the room. 
I had a strong longing for gardening, barbecuing, and enjoying drinks on the balcony. But, it was quite difficult to do these things in where I lived before due to space constraints. (Basically, balconies in Japanese apartment are only about the size of cat's forehead.)

So, When I choose the room, it was a important factor how spacious a balcony is. And then, my new room has a scenic balcony spacious to allow for light exercise. 
And then, I immediately started gardening using that space. To start with,  I planted olive, rosemary, cilantro, basil, mint, and tomatoes respectively. I expect that these vegetables enhance the quality of life.

   

Topic 2 : I found a public bath in my neighborhood.

As I said above, I've just moved to an unfamiliar city. To get accustomed to the new city and its own atmosphere, today I decided to go to a local public bath.
(In my opinion, if you want to know the city a little bit deeper, you should go to the local pace. I think that a public bath is one of the most local amenity place.)

(And I just simply love bathing in a public bath)

Fortunately, there are plenty of public bath in this area. For this time, I chose one very close to my house. That bathhouse's service was very satisfactory, it offers bathing and sauna with reasonable price. 
I definitely want to invite friends next time and revisit.

That's all for today. Bye.
