Changing the Da to Ta-Da! - JALT PIE Conference video by Countryside Kids: Kiyo & Cuillinn Paterson

Video made by Kiyo & Cuillinn Paterson
Japan has an urbanization rate of 91.78%, while the worldwide rate is  only 55% (O’Neill, 2021). As so many Japanese people live in densely packed cities for convenience, they can forget what kind of exciting lifestyles people can have in the more spacious countryside. So we made this video about the backcountry activities we regularly do with our German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, mountains bikes, etc to highlight some of the benefits of the country life, as  in comparison with large Japanese cities like Tokyo, people have more opportunities to take part in outdoor recreational pursuits. We hope this video opens your minds about what a modern Inaka lifestyle 
can really be like and realise that Saitama should be Ta-Da Saitama!
Enjoy!
