オーストラリア人ゲスト来綾/ Australian guests came to Ayabe

先日オーストラリアからHugoさん（二人とも偶然同じ名前）が里山ゲストハウス　クチュールにきてくれました。オーストラリアは学校が２月から始まるということで、今長い夏休み中。先月からオーストラリアの方よくきてくださっています。二人は初めての日本で今回３０日間の旅。彼らはなんと高校卒業したばかり！

到着後、ランチは綾部市内の「茶つぼ」さんへ。ここは料理に一手間かけているのか、とても美味しいです。食後に初の抹茶を飲んでもらいました。お店の方と話しているとご好意から抹茶を点てる体験も急遽させていただけることに！

その後、上林の茅葺の家へ案内し日本の家屋について説明しました。夜は上林鶏と市野瀬米を満喫、そしてあやべ 温泉にて初めての温泉デビュー！気持ちよかったのか、長く入っていました。

We had guests from Australia. Recently we have lots of Australian due to their summer vacation.They are just graduated high school. Young! They are just sons to me.

When they arrived in Ayabe, we went to Japanese restaurant for lunch. I didn't know they are teenager at that moment. so I felt sorry it costs a bit expensive for them to have lunch. But the food is very tasty and lots of first encounter for them too. The food, and MACHHA(green tea), and at the end, they had chance to make Green tea by themselves!

After lunch, we headed to Kambayashi area where the guest is. but before arrival in guesthouse, I took them to Torigaki village where Japanese old thatched house located. Then tell them story of Japanese houses.

and at night, we enjoyed local grown Kamabayashi chicken as a dinner, and then another first time experience which is ONSEN( hot spring!). We headed to Ayabe Onsen.We hope they had fun even it is only one night and have a good trip and meeting lots of nice people!

Ayabe Once is about 10 minutes from Guest house Couture
