Our summer vacation?Ebi chan?
Ebi-chan came back from Thailand last week.
He traveled to Bali in Indonesia and Thailand for 10 days in total,
and came back with his face suntanned and refreshed.
This is one of the souvenirs that he brought us. It's a tapestry with cute elephants.
It is a common understanding that Japanese employees cannot take a long vacation.
But! Sakura Hostel wants to be an exception because we all like traveling.
10 days is not long at all for Europeans, I guess, though.
Koji went to Hokkaido by motorbike in June.
Tsuyoshi is currently driving all around Japan with his new GPS.
Tomoe is also on her vacation and is somewhere in Japan.
It will be my turn next :)
These are also something sweets from Thailand↑↑

Absolutely. Here in Europe it is common to have a month off work. Here in Spain the Law says 28 days, not counting weekends, so it goes to 5 weeks more or less.

In Europe it can be very different between countries. Take nothern countries, it's common to have 6 or 8 weeks of holiday.
In Switzerland, I think, we are the harddest workers in Europe : "only" 4 weeks of holiday and at least 42 hours per week.
For example, in France it's only 35 hours per week !
Anyway, I would like to wish you great holiday !
Greetings from Switzerland !
