Nature Acting

[shellygossip]

Feel and Sink in great nature. I climbed Mt. Hinata on my business trip. It was not from usual course which most of people use, but from advanced course which only our nature guide knows well. It was first time of mountain climbing for me so it was tough, but when I saw the scenery from the summit, My mind got cheerful and cleared up. Climbing got to be in my list that I want to try more. 出張で初登山、日向山に登ってきました。しかも一般の登山道ではなくて、ガイドさんが開拓したアドバンスコース。 初めてだったから途中心折れそうな時もあって、最後なんて気合だけで登ったけどら頂上に辿り着いた時は来てよかった、って思えた。 登山すると精神的にも強くなれそうだし、続けてみてもいいかもしれない😌 登山のついでに、尾白川渓谷にも行ってマイナスイオン浴びてきたよ✨(途中急な濁流に身の危険も感じたけどw) #mountain #climbing #mountainclimbing #mthinata #hinatayama #climbingtour #privatenaturetour #privatenatureguide #natureimmersion #mttrek #mtclimbing #mtsummit #businesstrip #travelagent #ojirogawavalley #waterfall #hakushu #feelnature #natureactivity #outdooractivities #日向山山頂 #日向山 #初登山 #出張 #アウトドア #登山 #尾白川渓谷 #ネイチャーツアー #プライベートツアー (at 日向山山頂) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1WOInwAyaR/?igshid=11ypfiw63s9ui
