My 1st time skiing experience: Winter in Japan

21 March, 2025

On February 8, the MSP members went to the ski resort.  It was the first time for some of us to see snow, and everyone was very excited.  I was also a little nervous because it was my first time to ski, but I had always wanted to do it when I come to Japan.

When we arrived at the ski resort, the whole area was covered with pure white snow, and it was so beautiful.  The members who saw the snow for the first time said, “It's really like a dream!” and touched the snow again and again.  And what a surprise!  We could see Mt. Fuji in the distance!  Mt. Fuji, standing tall and white under the blue sky was truly impressive.  I had seen it in pictures, but seeing it with my own eyes, I was amazed at its magnificence.

Skiing was difficult and I fell many times at first, but I practiced again while laughing with everyone. Even though we fell down, we had a lot of fun, and we were excited like children.  By the time we left, everyone was tired, but very happy in our hearts.

We had been busy with exams and reports, but we were very happy to have this precious experience of skiing while enjoying the beautiful scenery of Mt. Fuji.  I would definitely like to go skiing with everyone again!
