		<description>Hello Tom,

I came across your blog when searching for sites about Lake Toya. I live close by in Muroran and work right next to you in Date. In fact I've heard about you, or at least the existence of overseas volunteers at Lake Toya, from several people and have been meaning to get in touch with you. 

I am a director at a local marketing company, konnichiwa-japan, inc. (www.konnichiwa-japan.com). We are working on helping to promote Lake Toya and prepare for the upcoming G-8 Summit. We are building an online guide at www.laketoyaguide.com which will show our recommended viewpoints, walking paths, picnic spots, etc. At the moment we're still working on the site design and as a place holder we've installed a WordPress blog with links to various websites about Lake Toya and the G8 Summit.

I would like to meet you. Please give me an email at the address on our website or call me at 090-6210-8779. I look forward to hearing from you.

		<description>Hi Eringu, thank you for the valentines wishes and apologies for the slow reply. It has been hectic lately (my own doing, as I have become obsessed with studying Kanji.) Congrats on being one of the lucky next Japan volunteers, you will love it here, wherever you go. 

Dad - glad you found it amusing! And more importantly glad you enjoyed your holiday out here! I'm unfortunately still a way behind on my posts, as I mentioned above I have become obsessed with studying lately so haven't had time. Even dreamed about Kanji the other night. Was a boring dream I tell you.</description>
