It was such a special 'once a life time' trip, meet up with my friend Karin from Japan in Alice Springs then went to see the Ayers Rock !
When we travel, everyone asks ''Where are you from?'' so most of us travelers will say the country we grew up or nationality.
My friend Karin who has been living in japan for 7years says ''I am from Japan''. She said when she flies back in Narita Air port (Japan) from her travel she feels ''I am home'' so much.
Yes, Inside of her, I can see her Japanese soul... well actually more like Japanese pride.
When people ask me general question about Japan, sometimes she answered better.... shame on me huh !? but that is Karin. Indeed.
It's fun to traveling with her, Me, Japanese and have spent last few years in abroad, Karin, American and has spent maybe most or half of her life in abroad. We both have different perspective but we know those differences a bit better or in her case, a lot better !
Next day Karin arrived Alice springs, We joined 3days out-back tour. The weather was getting better from one day to the next !!
We met great people from all over at this tour !
It was a great tour ever ! It's because of the member !
I won't forget everyone, because we made it !! We made this 'once a life time' trip together !
I liked the words Ole the guy from Germany said to Karin last party.
''We will come across twice in our lives.''
It might be so... I think even if we couldn't see actual person it self again, we have heaps of chances to remember the person, It doesn't matter if it's only one day we spend the time together. Every meetings are precious.
Ole left the pub with the words said to only Karin, without saying bye to everyone but We'll see each other again in somewhere in this world. I feel so.
Ayers Rock, called Uluru in there.
When I first time see the rock, I felt this place is definitely sacred place.
I don't remember when I saw the Mt.Fuji first time... It was probably around 5 years old.
When the first sight Mt Fuji came into my eyes was when I am still on my dad's car.
When I saw the Mt.Fuji, I said to my parents ''I see aura''
My parents laughed at me that this little girl said pretty big comment.
However when I saw the Ayers Rock, I remember the time when I saw the Fuji, and I again felt the rock is covered some kind of veil. I felt like being sucked into the rock with great dignity and felt tremble, thought how we are tiny and powerless.....
The huge rock is changed its color like northern lights by the sun,
especially the rock with sun-rise makes me very emotional...
The nature creation is very precious, pure being and really beautiful.
I am here because There is mother nature.... I was reaffirmed this by the rock.
