Touring to My Favorite Photo Spot in the BMW

Heading to Haga in the 320i The other day, my family of four and I took a trip to Haga in Hyogo Prefecture in our BMW 320i.

Many car and motorcycle enthusiasts in the Kansai area might already know it, as the roads and scenery there are truly beautiful. At our house, whenever we get a new car, the...

Thoughts on the Accident Where a Car Crashed into a Line of Kindergarten Children in Nish...

Accidents Caused by Elderly Drivers In recent months, almost every week, I see news reports about accidents where a car driven by an elderly person crashes into a line of kindergarten children, resulting in precious lives lost. Every time I see such news, my heart tightens painfully. The feelings of the parents whose child—whom they had just dropped off at daycare as usual, the child who waved goodbye with a beaming smile—suddenly became someone who...

Enjoying the Night View on Royu Driveway in a BMW!

Aiming to Be an MT Lady Driver It’s been a week since I took delivery of my BMW 320i. Since then, I’ve been driving almost every day, so I’ve gotten quite comfortable behind the wheel. I no longer stall, and I don’t roll back on hill starts anymore. Even on gentle slopes where auto-hold doesn’t kick in, I can start smoothly without panicking. So far, I’ve been to Harborland in Kobe, driven on the Hanshin...

Photo Gallery Page Launched – Porsche Boxster, Panamera, 911 GT3, 964…etc

Photos of Porsche I often hear people say, “The photos in your blog posts are really beautiful.” I’ve always thought, “If I’m going to post them, I want to share beautiful, high-quality photos,” so I try to be mindful when taking pictures. But I only use my iPhone for shooting, and I don’t spend much time carefully composing the shots. On the other hand, my husband’s passion for photography is truly on another level lol....
