An American citizen born in Gumma Prefecture, he lives year-round on the lake in his cottage with his wife, ukuleles and hamster.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I basically grew up here on Lake Nojiri, although I went to school in Tokyo, and did my undergraduate degree in Colorado in the US. It was always the place to come back to, though, the place that felt like home.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In fact, I went to the US a few year ago to pursue my graduate degree in fish sciences\u2014but I suddenly realized that I was much more interested in getting back to Japan and being out in the fantastic wild world all around the lake. So I had an early change of life, and came back home!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For me, this is just about the perfect place to live. I might get up and kayak or canoe around the lake early in the morning. In the winter, friends (or clients) and I often enjoy a day out fishing for wakasagi, tasty smelt\u2014if we have a day when I can\u2019t get out skiing. The autumn colors are almost perfect from the windows of my cabin, with the tiny island of Benten-jima glowing with color and surrounded my morning fog.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In short, I\u2019m just getting going on my new life in guiding, but I still do fisheries research work too, and just enjoy the traditions and the natural beauty of the area. I\u2019m really glad I came back home!&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Miles Peterson Ski and trekking guide, kids\u2019 outdoor leader in the Lake Nojiri area, fisheries biologist and p&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":18,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-143","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.shinetsu-activity.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/143","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.shinetsu-activity.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.shinetsu-activity.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.shinetsu-activity.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.shinetsu-activity.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=143"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.shinetsu-activity.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/143\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":269,"href":"https:\/\/www.shinetsu-activity.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/143\/revisions\/269"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.shinetsu-activity.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/18"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.shinetsu-activity.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=143"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
