I had a great stay at Haruko's, just wish I knew Japanese better so that we could have had more conversations. She was so very sweet and provided breakfast, and I met some really cool people in the evening who were having a party there. I loved sleeping on the futon on the tatami floor, one of my favorite things about being in Japan. Thank you so much, Haruko, I wish I had more time to stay and I would like to check out Jiyugaoka again!
