Gunma ken trips part 1 of 5

This is a slide picture/video I took at Konuma lake, Mt Jizo and Kakumanbuchi Marsh in Maebashi's Mt. Akagi. This place is quite near to drive from Saitama or Tokyo. I came from Saitama and just used the Route 17 coming here 3days prior because I had a teaching job at the Friendship Youth Center at the foot of Mt. Akagi. This is the first I made out of the collection of pictures while there from Sept.30~ Oct.3. You see the autumn season was just starting. Also please bear with me as I am just staring this blogging and vlogging thing and so the quality of videos, content, talking I know is not good. But I think I have to start somewhere. As I really want to share to you my travels as I love to travel a lot here in Japan.
 I usually travel alone with my car sometimes with my pet, sometimes on a rented car depending on a situation, and for me  driving the best way as I can travel cheaply and at my own pace and time and explore the unbeaten paths. 
Although it is lovely if my friends or family members are with me but usually here in Japan it is  difficult  with so different jobs, schedules, preference of activities and accommodation.  My motto is " To travel and have adventure while able", because soon I may not be able to do what I can now and so I need to go as soon as I have available time. Traveling alone here in Japan is for me a very safe, enjoyable and educational hobby, that I can sometimes use for my students, because we can talk a lot about their culture discussion. 
I will be posting in the next parts as I travel to Gunma on different trips. 
I have travelled a lot to Gunma ken years ago when blogging or facebook wasn't in the radar yet but I think I have lost those pictures, so I need to travel again to appreciate and discover more the place that as I remember has beautiful nature and delicious vegetables and fruits.
