Hello Scorum,

The weekend has passed and this week we are now approaching a new month. December is almost here and also winter is just waiting around the corner. For some it might become a rather quiet time but if you go out into nature you can see there is still a lot going on.

Here on the westcoast of Japan we are getting some visitors from way up north these days. On many lakes and fresh water lagoons you can see lots of ducks gathering and chilling together. And soon they will be joined by a big bunch of swans who have taken on the long journey down from east Sibiria.

Already now it is a wonderful scene, when looking over that lagoon. Seeing that snow caped mountain in the background and the calm but busy water, I am just feeling wonderful. Actually, the sea is just behind that mountain, and from here you can get there in about 15 minutes. Sometimes the beauty of the world is concentrated in a nutshell, and I am very grateful about it.

I hope I can get out there again soon, as I really love this place. I like walking around there in any season, even though in winter it can be a little cold and stormy. But still warmer than up there in the north.

Have a great week everyone!

Love and Respect !
