N5 N4 Japanese Listening Practice: Let's Explore the Woods! #127

Hello everyone, I'm Ken. Now I am taking a walk. Today is a day off. Recently, on my days off I make it a habit to go for walks. Today, from now on Let's go to a slightly interesting place. I enter the forest. Today, together with everyone here, I walk through the forest. Here it is. Inside this one. While walking, simple Japanese I'll speak then. So, everyone, Please listen to my Japanese. Can you see it? This is a forest. It's not a mountain, it's not a mountain. This is a forest—a place with many trees, isn't it? Now I will enter this place here I'm coming in, yeah, I'm super excited. I really love this kind of nature. Forests, mountains, and such things I love it so much. The sea is nice too. I also like rivers. I always do things like this When I come to a beautiful natural setting, I get really excited. It's amazing, really beautiful. There's the sun over there. The sunlight filtering through the trees is beautiful. I always come here naturally like this It calms down, really calms down. The tree is slightly broken, isn't it? Trees usually grow upward, but This tree is broken. Here Crouch down so you don't hit your head It's passable, isn't it? Nobody's here. Since today is a weekday, Nobody's here, good. I currently live in town. I live in a town in Taiwan. Therefore There are quite a lot of people at my house. There are many people around, but this place is nice, isn't it? No one's here now, just me. There are no animals here either. For now, I'm still I am not looking at any animals, but... If a bear appears What should we do if a bear comes out? What would you do? Probably there is here There are no bears here, so it's probably safe. This way, I think. The road here is quite complicated. There are many paths; let's try this way. I have come here for the first time today. This is my first time, so I have no idea at all where the path is. You'll get lost. If you get lost on the mountain, That's tough, but since we're in a forest, it should probably be fine. There's no path, but I'll try going this way. Do you all like this kind of nature? On days off, I go for walks or Do you go hiking sometimes? I've been lately. On days off, I go for walks and enjoy things like this nature. I've arranged it so that you'll come, actually There is a sea beyond this forest. Since there's a sea, let's go together later. Do you all like the sea too? I was born and raised in the mountains, so I didn't go to the sea much when I was a child. Probably once a year. About once or twice, maybe. But I played a lot in the mountains when I was a child. When I played in the mountains, every day It felt like an adventure. Do you like adventures? I love adventures. Sorry, I'm currently talking while I was walking, so I got a little lost on the way. Since it's such a nice opportunity, let me show you all the view. Mushroom, yes, mushroom. It's a mushroom, isn't it? There are mushrooms on the mountain, you know. Do you like mushrooms? Do you like eating mushrooms? I like mushrooms, dishes like mushroom rice, for example. Then there's miso soup with mushrooms, for example. I love you always, me When eating mushrooms, at the supermarket I'll buy it in the mountains. I have never picked mushrooms or cooked them. Can I go this way? I can't go this way. This way, this way, yes While I was taking a little walk, my stomach suddenly felt... It's open now. It's a dead end. What should I do? I thought there was a path, but it's a dead end. I was in Australia for about a year back then. I used to live in Australia too. The sea is beautiful. There are many more forests like this one. When I lived in Australia I used to go to the woods or the sea on holidays. So now I'm walking here while I remembered Australia. There's no path, there's no path, but I'll go and see, even though there's no path. When I tried walking I have found my own path. This might be a bit too difficult. Would everyone here be able to get through it? This is impossible, but I'll go anyway. It's impossible, but... This way. If you keep walking without giving up, even if it's impossible, you'll eventually reach outside. I managed to get out today Just when I thought there was nobody at all, there were about three people here now. I was surprised. This way, please. Good, good Alright, here we go, everyone Can you see it? It's the sea. Wow, we've arrived at the sea. The wind is really strong here. Wind Wind is really strong Wow, the sea is great, isn't it? It feels so refreshing. Wow, the sandy beach is beautiful. Look, can you see? This is a sandy beach. It's incredibly beautiful. I'm visiting this sandy beach for the first time; it's been a long time. I came to the sea because there's a beautiful sandy beach. I am moved. Something's really exciting over there It was worth walking hard through the forest. There are a few people here, though. Two people there, one person there There is someone. I am currently in Japan. I'm in Taiwan, not Japan. Japan is over there across the sea. Beyond that sea lies Okinawa. It's here, but I can't see it clearly. When looking at a map of Okinawa, They are quite similar, Taiwan and Okinawa. It's close, but you know... I can't see it; I can't see Okinawa from here. Too bad, probably can't swim there. I like swimming, but Swimming in the sea is a little scary. There are waves, and also underwater There might be sharks around; I'm scared. You all enjoy swimming in the sea Do you like this place? Nobody's around here. Nothing at all, but I'm a bit curious anyway. I'll try walking a bit more straight. Maybe if I just went straight ahead There might be something, you know, I... I'm curious. I want to know. Then I'll walk a bit more. I've been walking nonstop now. I walked over from that direction. I came walking. Here is a very beautiful place. It was over there, in that direction. The waves are quite high. Everything that's turned white is waves, but here the waves are Not really. It's beautiful, isn't it? It's incredibly calming. That area over there is nice too; it has a good atmosphere. There's a mountain over there. Can you see it? I'll get a little closer to the sea. It's incredibly beautiful, amazing. I like the sound of the waves. About this much. I like the sound of small waves. How about you? Do you like the sound of waves? Today is... I'm truly delighted to be here, amidst such beautiful nature, together with all of you. That's good. Lately, I've been a bit busy with work. But on days off Whenever I come to a place like this, my heart becomes very calm. All of you also Even when work is busy, use your days off Please come by naturally like this; I really think it's great. I'm really glad to be here today with all of you. See you in the next video. See you later
