Niseko, the snowland

Halo~~~~

It has been a while since I last stomped into my BLOG 

Been really busy~! << my favorite iiwake *excuse 

I was actually really quite busy for real that you have to know, I MOVED my house from Tokyo to Hokkaido

Big BIG project..

Anyway, besides my house moving project, and should I say before I could settle down myself with a cup of tea, I realized that I was already on the plane flying back to Malaysia..

I then had myself backpacking to the SEA. Not the ocean, but the SOUTH EAST ASIA
Singapore, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, Hong Kong and Taiwan 

I’ve a lot to tell about this trip of course A lot of pictures taken A lot of VIDEOS recorded My blog is not going to die!!!!!!

Left Hokkaido when it was still green, and it is allllllllllllllll white when I came back a week ago~~~

My new-house (rent of coz ), this house is so big with 5 rooms…still thinking what to do with them??

But the real snow hadn’t arriving yet by then…

 Still rain, snow, rain, snow.. washing off all the fluffy white stuff without any mercy..

People’s been crying for SNOW since weeks ago~ And SNOW, you are LATE this year!!!

But thank god you are finally here..

Real sorry for not updating lately..

My excuse, I was really a lil’ bit busy with my new work and getting myself settling down here in a new place comfortably. 

Just got my internet connection 2 weeks ago anyway 

When I first came to Niseko here in Hokkaido, it was all white and snowy 

Like this 

And the 2nd time I came here, which is now, it was all colorful and flowery

me climbing up to the PEAK of Mt. Annupuri!!! 

Hirafu top top lift, King lift 4 Top lift is the scariest lift! with single lift without safety guarding rail  always feel like falling down from the chair lift..

So, here we are at the top of the top lift and the GATE to the PEAK

But..

I started to shiver when we haven’t even started to cross the gate..

The platform of the top lift was already so high up, looking so steep..

Seeing the peak from here makes me shiver even more..

Hiking up normally takes 20mins for those who are used to it, and I was being told that I might take an hour to reach the peak..

So, I ended up without hiking up..

Anyway, at least I was able to go up till the top lift for the first time! and I was quite satisfied with it.. coz the run from the top is still for expert level!!

Even though not from the peak, I can still able to have this incredible panorama view of Mt.Yotei　     

Next WINTER *2011* mission : TO THE PEAK FOR SURE

 日本語 

Niseko the land of SNOW still SNOWING a lot even it’s Spring

On a day like this, nothing is better than go SNOWBOARDING

Coz the more fluffy snow dumping down, the softer the runs would be! The softer it would be, I’ll have more confidence to slide without worrying getting hurt when crash and fall 　

Fluffy powder snow forms a big cushion

I even hit my head to the ground…and I was OK! 　

But of course it was not OK of falling and hit the ground…no matter what..

Actually, I just realized that I really need a helmet after hitting my head 3 times to the ground in a week.. die…

Take as in Ta Ke　He is the one who filmed me snowboarding~! Good guy

Megumi, call her Megu Cute ski and snowboard instructor at NISSShe’s cool

Pretty snow stick on my hair~

Stroooooooooong WIND~ 

Strong wind is a lil’ bit scary, sometimes can’t even ski or snowboard coz the lifts will be all closed, and if the wind grows stronger, it might blown you off..

But it can be quite exciting~ 

 日本語 

This is what I call a perfect day in Niseko 

>> beautiful snowfalls + some light sun rays + no wind = The day I Love 

Only on this kinda day, there’re snow trees!

Snow trees？

I was so addicted to snowboarding last 2 weeks that I’ve not been touching my ski since then..

Felt a lil’ bit awkward and I just fell when trying to get off the chair lift..

Got back the feel of it after a few runs and never thought ski is as fun too haha

 日本語 

Big big SNOW yesterday~ Been sunny for the whole week and at last~

Snowboarding on a day like this is not to be missedSnow is so soft like PILLOW, no pain no hurting~

BEST for practicing
