It's a beautiful sea. It's a beautiful sea. - Even if Japanese is not so good, swimming is so bad, you're OK!👍🏻 Very wonderful experience! とてもお綺麗で、英語もお上手で、最高のガイドさんです!💕 ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー I was worried that I could hear Japanese, but I was worried that it was difficult to speak Japanese, but Akari guided me well and made it fun even if I couldn't swim.
