Winter Sports, Snow fun and a lot of Japanese in between

April 10, 2026by: Lorraine Wonders - New Zealand

Program: Meiji Academy - Winter Course in Hokkaido

10

I went to Hokkaido for six weeks last Winter and had a blast! My instructors were super fun and very attentive to my study needs. As I have dyslexia and need special attention for reading and test practices I was relieved that the Meiji instructors took my concerns serious. At the beginning I was worried how it would turn out but it went really well and everybody was very helpful. Outside of the class there was always something happening. I often went with fellow classmates to explore more Miso Ramen places around the school. Pssst you have to make sure to check them out! The Winter activities were also so much fun. I recommend to always ask the teachers or Kai for recommendations as they are super lovely in helping out with all my queries.

Snow Fun and Nihongo

I had a blast in Hokkaido last Winter with Meiji and enjoyed the Winter activities a lot! My favorite memory was the trip to Mount Moiwa and the ski gliding fun we had with Meiji students in Otaru. Can't wait to come back and meet all:(

2 Wochen Bildungszeit oben in Hokkaido

Program: Bildungsurlaub (Germany)

Joa das hat schon Spaß gemacht. Diese Schule hat ein gutes Programm und war recht gut organisiert. Ich habe mir eine private Wohnung organisieren lassen über die Schule und das ging auch sehr gut. Alle Kochutensilien, Decke, Staubsauger und so weiter waren alles da nur leider gab’s keine Handtücher die müsste man sich selber organisieren. Aber einen Föhn hatte ich auch. Neben der sehr zentral gelegenen Unterkunft kann man noch dazu sagen dass Japanischunterricht sehr viel Spaß gemacht hat. Es war teils recht intensiv aber das konnte man leider nicht umgehen da die Bildungzeit rechts strikte Anforderungen hat. Meine 30 Stunden pro Woche habe ich erfüllt deswegen war alles gut aber es hat mich natürlich auch gefreut dass ich nicht die ganze Zeit im Klassenzimmer saß sondern durch die vielen kulturellen Aktivitäten auch ein bisschen frische Luft bekommen habe. Gerade der Katanaschwertkampf, die Meditation im buddhistischen Tempel und die Teezeremonie haben mir sehr viel Spaß gemacht. Ich kann’s auf jeden Fall jedem empfehlen der gerne seine Bildungszeit im Ausland machen möchte gerade in Japan.

I’ve always been curious about other cultures and wanted to challenge myself by living somewhere completely different from home. Japan, in particular, fascinated me because of its unique blend of tradition and modernity, and I’ve loved the language and culture for years. Going abroad was a chance to really dive into that world, not just as a tourist, but by living day-to-day life there.

I’ve always been curious about the world beyond my own little bubble. That’s really what pushed me to go abroad. I wanted to challenge myself, try something totally new, and get out of my comfort zone. Learning a new language while actually living in the country where it’s spoken felt like the perfect way to do that.
