Hello everyone, how are you?
It is getting warmer every week.
But sometimes it gets cold again like tomorrow it is supposed to be only 3 ℃ in the day….
I can’t wait spring will be here.
BTW, do you like collecting stuff?
Goshuin is becoming popular among the foreign tourists, so you might know. It is the original stamp from each shrines and temples with date.
When I started collecting those, it was not so popular yet, then they did calligraphy in front of us. It was pretty cool.
In these days, also because of covid-19, they just give you a sheet of paper they ‘ve already wrote and stamped on.
It is a little bit a shame but even though, each stamps are different and it is fun to collect those, and it would be a good memory and sometimes it can be the purpose of trip, even.
Here is another collecting idea you can try if you live in Japan, or travel all over Japan.
I like to visit Michi no Eki (roadside station), but I had never heard about Michi no Eki stamp book till I started working here.
Here is a book from 2021.(360 yen) The one sold at Michi no Eki Aso is for Kyushu area. Stamp book 2022 will be published in Apr.
They publish the new book every year just because they have giveaways which is different every year. If you don’t mind the annual giveaways, you can keep using the same book.
We had customers on Feb.12th (Sat.) and 13 th (Sun) who achieved Michi no Eki stamp collection!
The first person, he started collecting since 2013, then finally reached to 100 stamps!
The other group had all the stamps from Kyushu, and they came back to Aso to get certified by us, just because they like Michi no Eki Aso. How honored we are !
Manager of Michi no Eki Aso signed for the certification!
Even you are not going to enter the giveaways, it will be fun to collect all these different stamps of Michi no Eki 😀
The design for Michi no Eki Aso stamp is very simple.
Maybe I should suggest to change it to something more cool…
In April, I am going to get a new stamp book for 2022 and try to have fun with my family. Why don’t you start with us?!
