Administrator’s profile

My name is Mitsuhiko Kawamata.

After retirement, I spent ten years playing at being a farmer on a property consisting of a 15000-square-meter estate and a field of approximately 5000 square meters. To share anecdotes from this experience and prevent boredom, I’ve decided to start a blog.

While engaging in activities on the estate and in the field, I’ve become aware of significant changes in the ecosystem, prompting me to categorize the blog into the following three sections:

1. Rants about Ecosystem Changes
2. Tasks in the Field
3. Nature in the Estate Forest

Although this site may seem like a random whim, I would be delighted if you could accompany me on this journey. The site is named “Dacha Shose,” inspired by the resilience of Dachas (small cottages) that could withstand even the collapse of the Soviet Union. “Dacha” is a Russian term referring to a rural estate with a cottage.

Challenging Website Creation

I struggled with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and PHP on YouTube, but it took too much time for a late-stage senior, so I switched to WordPress. Eventually, I found myself flowing effortlessly into Cocoon. Still, encountering the high-quality communication skills of younger individuals through platforms like YouTube and podcasts makes me optimistic about Japan’s future. Thank you very much.
