Easter holiday

The month of March passed so quickly although I was not particularly busy of anything...

Yes, a shame,

I did not write even a blog during the month...

BUT!

This blog is the 100th blog since 2008!

So this is a sort of accomplishment, isn't it ?!

I have the will to keep writing this blog thanks to YOU who tell me that YOU look forward to reading my blog regularly and YOU are interested in following my life!

Thank you so much for your support!

April normally indicates the arrival of spring.

This year, yes in England, it has been so sunny and warm since a couple of weeks while in Japan, no, the winter does not seem to want to leave from the country... 

Nevertheless in Japan, in April, a new year starts for (most of) all companies and schools.

People take a sort of new resolution of this year and start working fresh.

My spring is also approaching.

Although my job hunting has not brought any fruit yet, I got the chance to do a three-month internship with UNICEF.

So mid-April, I am heading to Ethiopia to gain more work experience, particularly in the WASH (water, sanitation and hygiene) sector. 

What exactly I am going to do there?

I do not know... So keep following my blog, please!

I will surely talk about my life and work there (more frequently than once a month, I promise.)

While preparing my trip, my best friend from University in Japan came to Brighton to visit us with her family.

I attempted to visit them several times but every time, it was bad timing and I have never made it.

So I was really happy for their visit. 

During their stay in Brighton, they were sooooo lucky to have always nice sun above us!

We took them to beautiful Seven Sisters

with our homemade Afternoon Tea picnic

Enjoyed the sun at the Brighton Beach

Had fun at the attraction park on the Brighton Pier like children

Me and my friend got on a roller coaster of a ghost house. At the beginning, it was a bit scary but suddenly the coaster stopped and we were stuck for about 5 minutes.

In the end, a technician came over and told us that the operation computer broke and we needed to get out by emergency exit.

Well, this gave us the impression of how old all the machines in this park are...
 

Anyway, I am quite sure that they got the best impression of Brighton from this visit ♪ 

From 6th until 9th April, it is the Easter holiday and a long weekend in England.

We have had several Easter eggs before this holiday..

Instead, on 6th as the start of the weekend and my birthday, Ben prepared an excellent dinner for me :)

With the arrival of spring, I get older.

This year,  I put much more efforts to advance my (professional) life with my age!
