“ Through this project I was able to gain many valuable experiences. I was able to experience the nature of Kashima and noticed not only our Japanese point of view, but also the foreigner's point of view and way of thinking. I also found the time spent exchanging opinions and discussing ideas with my fellow team members very stimulating and exciting. ”

“ This is my first time in Kashima. Through this program, I was able to be surrounded by the beauty of Kashima and experience its culture and traditions. Kashima has an old-fashioned atmosphere that is truly relaxing and peaceful. It is as if you have jumped into the past. ”

“ In the process of trying to convey the attractiveness of Kashima City through trial and error, we were able to learn about new aspects of Kashima, such as its historic buildings and the warmth of its people. By viewing Kashima through the filter of "communication," I was able to see the city from a different perspective than when sightseeing. I was also able to deepen my friendship with the other participants and made new friends, which made me very happy.　”

“ I have been to Kashima three times, but I did not know much about the attractiveness of Kashima. Through this program, I was able to better understand the beauty of Kashima and the story behind its attractiveness. If you ever come to Kyushu, you should visit Kashima. I highly recommend it. ”
