about me

  Hello! I'm Nanako Sakai. Please call me Nana. I'm an international studies of regional development student. I'm interested in culture, languages, and so on. 

I was born and grew up in Niigata. I like nature. Niigata is rich in nature. My favorite place in this prefecture is the Yahiko shrine.  That place has a lot of memories for me. When I was a preschooler, I used to go there with my grandmother and grandfather, and go there for field trips at nursery school. When I was in elementary school, there were mountain climbing events at school. When I was in junior high school and high school student, I went there when I wanted to refresh myself.

These days, It's been a long time I took the ropeway to the top! I'm glad to go there. I want to go there to look at the autumn colors.

 I have some hobbies. Especially, I like listening to music. My favorite K-pop singer group is SEVENTEEN. Recently, I often listen to BLACK PINK. I also listen to many other groups. In addition, My favorite J-pop singer is Mrs. GREEN APPLE, Aimyon, and so on.

 I was a member of the track and field team in junior high school and high school. I majored mainly in short distance and hurdles. Practice was hard. However, it was an awesome memory for me to practice and talk with team members. 

 I attended a summer seminar during summer vacation. Summer seminar is an exchange-type program with students from other countries. Each group thought of solutions to the problem and made a final presentation. I had a wonderful experience attending. Also, I could notice my low level. Speaking level, listening level, thinking, amount of knowledge, positiveness are low level. Knowing these things has motivated me. My goal is to study hard and to study abroad next year.
