house tutoring 3: Love in the times of Corona
Who could have ever imagined this, a pandemic as we have read it in books or seen in movies.

My trip through Japan was much more than a trip to visit temples and eat a lot of sushi. It was a trip that I learned more about this amazing country and their culture. Therefore, it is perhaps not surprising that my new mentor is wearing a kimono. In the short time that I can spend it taught me a lot with my mentor on the Japaanse culture containing interesting life lessons. These lessons can be useful for anyone who is concerned with personal development or simply want to learn new things. So for anyone who is interested in Japan but hasn't had the chance yet…
