[Sometimes weakness is also important]

Finally, my part-time job at work holiday started 🇨🇦

This is my first time in the restaurant business and I have a lot to learn every day 😵‍💫

But little by little, I feel like I'm getting used to it... I'll do my best 💪

The books I met in November,

"You can relax your shoulders more."

"It's okay to be yourself."

I feel that there were many works that gently pushed my back.

Read Books in November

What should I have for today's snack?

Taking a leisurely walk around the city, watching the latest work of the musical "Wicked," meeting with children studying Japanese... ✨ It was an exciting month with "friends" increasing little by little.

December is the holiday season 🎄

You will surely be able to meet new scenery again. I hope you can make a lot of wonderful memories ☺️

ワーホリでの生活は、新しい環境に慣れるのがなかなか大変ですよね。私自身も最初の頃は覚えることが多く、毎日がとても慌ただしく感じました。そんな中で感じたのは、ほんの少し肩の力を抜くこと、そして自分らしくいることの大切さです。例えば、私が11月に読んだ益田ミリさんの『今日のおやつは何にしよう』や、よしもとばななさんの『白河夜船』、原田マハさんの『フーテンのマハ』は、普段の忙しさから解放されるやさしいメッセージが込められていて、毎日の疲れを癒してくれました。特に『白河夜船』は、心の居場所について深く考えさせられる作品で、落ち着きを与えてくれました。また、街をのんびりと散歩したり、ミュージカル『ウィキッド』を観ることで新たな刺激を受け、新しい友達との交流も始まりました。こうした体験が、慌ただしい日常の中でも自分なりの“居場所”を見つける支えになっています。のんびりした時間を意識的に作ることで、心身ともにリラックスできることをおすすめします。新しい場所での生活は不安も多いですが、自分を大切にする時間を持つことが、長く充実したワーホリ生活に繋がると感じています。

The Power of Self-Control ✨❤️

Self-control isn’t just about saying “no” to temptations — it’s about saying “yes” to God’s will, even when our emotions, habits, or weaknesses try to take over. The Bible talks about self-control over 170 times — because God knows how important it is in the life of a believer. It’s not easy, but i
