They look sweet but they are not actually! They tasted bitter Matcha!🍦 We went to Uniqlo also! Anyone knows AC/DC? That's the T-shirt my daughter bought. Ahhhh, Sayonara Panda chan😂 **Language**: Japanese *16 likes · 10 comments · 129 views* [View this moment](https://www.hellotalk.com/moments/OcRJqNLFSaXNHD.md) --- ## 2. 8/14/2025 I went on a date with my husband🥰 It is so hot outside but we decided to hang around Ueno park. We visited the five storied pagoda, Toshogu, and Kiyomizu Kannondou. I loved the stone lanterns in a row, they are so pretty! We are having a hot summer here and hesitate to go out, but I was happy to go out! Had a lovely day! Last pic: I recieved letters from the children I took care of at my previous workplace. They enclosed some crafts they made for me. Sweet🥰 旦那さんとデートをしてきました❤️ 暑いけど上野に行ってきました。 五重塔、東照宮、清水観音堂に行きました。 私のお気に入りはずらっと一列に並んだ灯籠です。すごく綺麗 暑い夏で外出したくなくなりますが、たまには外に出るのも良いですね🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️良い1日になりました。 最後の写真は..前の職場で保育をしていた子供達からお手紙が届きました。手作りのクラフトも同封されていました。かわいい🥰 **Language**: Japanese *26 likes · 4 comments · 162 views* [View this moment](https://www.hellotalk.com/moments/AEpFBVFIvJMjHD.md) --- ## 3. 8/4/2025 娘と一緒に夜のお散歩🎐 風鈴の音色が綺麗でした **Language**: Japanese *17 likes · 4 comments · 184 views* [View this moment](https://www.hellotalk.com/moments/BVARIyAFOHytHD.md) --- ## 4. 8/3/2025 ハムスターを飼っています。名前は"むぎ"です。 ある日、私がお昼寝をしている間に むぎは脱走しました😱 真夏の大冒険を楽しんだ様で、その後ぐっすり寝ました😴💤 やんちゃで最高に可愛いハムスターです🩷 We have a pet hamster named むぎ. One day, while I was taking a nap, he escaped from his cage!😱 He looked like he enjoyed his big adventure in the middle of summer, then he had a good sleep afterwards! He is our naughty but stinking cute hamster🐹🩷 **Language**: Japanese **Voice**: [Listen to recording](https://cdn-global.hellotalk8.com/ht-global-1312929133/mmnt/2/250803/0/142604908/0/0/1d9ab09c-9a8f-4f2b-bb08-03b062481c47.aac) *13 likes · 10 comments · 187 views* [View this moment](https://www.hellotalk.com/moments/qDutp2qwVRutHD.md) --- ## 5. 7/27/2025 We had a family gathering last night⭐️ My parents invited us and my brother's family to see the firework display from their place🎆 Our firework displays have no special ocasions as Independent Day or Guy Fawkes Night or other special ocasions😊 My daughter and I got to wear Yukata that is a summer Kimono!👘 We played Jenga, made pom poms with yarn, my nephew dancing.. had a great night!😂 My mum and I cooked 1.5kg mince and made hamburger steakes for all of us! That was a lot!!😂 昨夜家族の集まりがありました。 両親が家から🏠花火を見ようと弟家族と私たちを招待してくれたんです。 日本の花火大会は独立記念日やガイフォークスデイの様に記念の花火ではありません😊 私と娘は着物を着ました。夏の着物で"浴衣(ゆかた)"といいます。 皆でジェンガをしたり毛糸でポンポンを作ったり甥っ子は踊ったり😂楽しい時間でした。 母と私は1.5kgのひき肉を調理して家族皆にハンバーグを作りました。すごい量です!! **Language**: Japanese *30 likes · 2 comments · 307 views* [View this moment](https://www.hellotalk.com/moments/qPuxpDxmIFAtHD.md) --- ## 6. 7/27/2025 I went to the National Museum of Nature and Science and I had a good time!!! The blue whale is a real size! Look at the sizes of the meteorites fallen over Japan!😳😱 I have enjoyed the fossiles, the residence made with mammoths' bones, dinos..🦖🦕pretty stained glass windows of the museum!! The real-looking stuffed animals (how do you call them?🦌) belonged to someone who lived in Okinawa. How did he keep them..?🏠 I gradually recalled old memories I have visited there once when I was a teen. But I enjoyed much much more this time maybe because I got old?😆❤️ **Language**: English *21 likes · 13 comments · 175 views* [View this moment](https://www.hellotalk.com/moments/xcIkM2NvOPAtHD.md) --- ## 7. 7/18/2025 Any Damon Slayer fans out there? I am so sad now that all the series of TV broadcast (7 nights, 2hours-2 and half each) ended, then the story continues to the new movie that started today! Who is your favourite character? Mine is 煉獄杏寿郎(れんごくきょうじゅろう)🔥🔥and 甘露寺蜜璃(かんろじみつり)who is cute and strong. In my opinions, it doesn't need to be too much skin exposed, nor gory.. Also it's definitely not for small children!! It is still a great story including a family bond and friendship. My favourite story is 堕姫(だき)and妓夫太郎(ぎゅうたろう)- brother and sister story🥲✨ By the way, all the characters have tricky names (also Kanji!) when I talked about them to my daughters, I had to say, "The one with tears" or "the one with the fox mask"😂 Anyways I can't wait to see the new movie! Go! Destroy all the demons!!! **Language**: Japanese *17 likes · 22 comments · 248 views* [View this moment](https://www.hellotalk.com/moments/rNLJzPucI3MDHD.md) --- ## 8. 7/18/2025 夕飯にねばねば丼を食べました。 ネバネバ丼の食材は長芋、おくら、モロヘイヤです。これらの食材は食べやすく胃に優しく、暑い夏を乗り切るのに役立つとされています。ここに納豆があれば完璧なねばねば丼です😂 違う国の食事は面白いですね🥢 We had NebaNeba sticky bowls for dinner. The ingredients were long potatoes, Okura and Moroheiya. It is said that they are refreshing and easy to eat, gentle on tired stomaches, helping you get through the heat of summer even when you have no appetite. If I added "Natto" in there, it was a perfect ねばねばどん!! Different culture, different food, isn't it? **Language**: Japanese **Voice**: [Listen to recording](https://cdn-global.hellotalk8.com/ht-global-1312929133/mmnt/2/250718/0/142604908/0/0/88007afe-7651-4596-9458-9835bb5fac7e.aac) *13 likes · 6 comments · 172 views* [View this moment](https://www.hellotalk.com/moments/AOZJvFMHt3MDHD.md) --- ## 9. 6/28/2025 回らないお寿司に行きました🍣 We went to the "mawaranai sushi" that means "Not turning sushi" お寿司屋さんには回転寿司と回らない寿司があります🍣面白い呼び方だね😆 There are "Kaiten zushi"(turning)and "Mawaranai sushi"(Not turning) and I love the way we call it so😂 (それにしても上野も銀座もどこも変わりましたね〜17年ぶりの東京に浦島太郎状態です🐢) **Language**: Japanese *18 likes · 2 comments · 182 views* [View this moment](https://www.hellotalk.com/moments/ptzEEHJNPVSNHD.md) --- ## 10. 6/14/2025 ありがとうHT!!🥳 I was able to meet wonderful people here on HT to exchange languages and cultures! I got to meet some of them in person when they were traveling here🇯🇵 It was so much fun chatting and spending time with them. The lady brought he daughter and her friend and I brought mine, they were able to communicate each other thru Google translation!! Awesome! Next time, we will have to go to Karaoke!😂 Have a lovely weekend to all. **Language**: Japanese *30 likes · 6 comments · 394 views* [View this moment](https://www.hellotalk.com/moments/VJVVqPAaRvRjHD.md) --- [View all moments on HelloTalk](https://www.hellotalk.com/partners/a_setsie77/moments.md) [Back to Setsuko's profile](https://www.hellotalk.com/partners/a_setsie77.md) --- ## Language Exchange Partners -
