A cloudy and fine day in Paris



Have you ever been to Paris?
 
 
With a typhoon approaching, it was cloudy last Sunday.
 
I woke up earlier than usual, opened the window, and noticed  the grey and extraorinary clouds in the sky. Something is weird. I sense clarity there. The atmosphere was full of transparency.
 
I went down the stairs. With such fresh air, I suddenly wanted to go far away. I couldn't help.
After 5 minutes' walk, I dropped by a convinence store. I was in front of a lot of magazines. One of them attracted me. It was love at first sight.  
 
 
Who can resist this cover?  A perfectly fine day with the Eiffel Tower. A boy and a girl are walking to the left, smiling. I could see a river running, some trees and a few cars but there was no soul without them. I also liked the blue sky and the white and grey cloud. 

 
I read many articles about Paris in this magazine. A lot of pictures were helpful to know a lot of shops and restaurants there. I felt as if I were in Paris too.

Enrich your life with a newspaper

Do you like to read a newspapaper article?
I hope so. For I'd like to show you one of Japanese newspapers.  
 
 
This is Tokyo Shinbun, a local and daily newspaper in Tokyo.("Shinbun" means "newspaper" in Japanese) You may be surprised to see that it is in print, not on Ipad or Kindle. Of course you can enjoy electronical papers here in Japan, but I do love this edition. 
 
Anyway, the newspaper have about twenty pages. They consists of articles and pictures about politics, economy, international affairs, life, sports,TV programmes and weather forecast. Under the articles, there are many ads, which are about books, magazines, travel and so on.

For a person who searches the world for the real japanese readings

Do you have anyone to help you to do something new? 
If the answer is "yes", you're already wealthy in human resources.
      
 
Whichever your answer is, today I'd like to introduce a book to you, which will aid you to lead a greater life with the Interet.

The book shows us some tips to change your life with the Web, especially by begining a blog.
For example, Katsuma says "Be strange and unusual because the readers wants information which is not around them." The good blogs have articles that is never seen on TV or stories that is never heard in the reader's life. The guests will be surprised at the news the superior bloggers tell.

 
"Have you ever heard of the blog? "
"I have and I love to read some articles by my favorite bloggers", you may answer.
"Me, too" I will answer. "I write some stuffs on my blog"
"Oh, you do?" 
Yes, you're now completely different from what you were.
That's the spirit!
