Hi my name is Tohgo. nice to meet you. I m from japan and i grew up in the middle part of Japan, called Gifu, where is the two famous places as Japanese historical monuments. One is called Sekigahara, where the biggest battle in Japanese history was occurred in 1600 and the battle field remains as historical place. the other one is called Shirakawago, which is located in deep in mountains, where there are many old wooden houses with big roof featured for withstanding heavy snow in winter. now its spoiled as tourist spot but original scenery of old Japan still remains there a bit. If you are interested in my birth place, i listed link below.
I have studied abroad since i was 20 to Canada and the United States so I can speak english quite okay.
