Response from Host, May 2025

Thank you, Kenichi. I’m really glad you fell in love with the beauty of the Anbo River. Yes, its crystal-clear water and peaceful silence make it such a special place to be. Since you enjoy a calm and serene atmosphere, I think the river was a perfect match for you. I really liked the way you embraced Yakushima😉
