Learning Japan
Hello Readers!
I believe it is very important to learn geography: geography allows you to understand the spatial organization of society and history and current events in a visual manner. Therefore I incorporate maps into my English lessons at least once a month.
However, while I teach maps to my students, I also struggle with geography!
I am currently trying to learn more about Japanese geography but I can never remember how North or South certain cities are.
For example, I thought Sendai was far closer to Tokyo than it actually is! After some reflection, I realized that I truly remember locations after I travel to them or study them in class. As I am no longer in school, I've decided to travel as much as I can in Japan to learn geography!
Where should I travel to next?
