Hamabe-sensei is one of the longest-teaching Japanese teachers at Genki Fukuoka’s Japanese school, and he’s especially esteemed for his lecture classes, as his extensive life experience makes for exciting discussions. Last month, his new book was published, and it’s now available in all good bookshops, and of course on Amazon too!
The book is called 気づきと感謝で、苦を楽に変える道を学ぶ (roughly, “Learning how to turn suffering into happiness through watchfulness and thankfulness”), and deals with Mr. Hamabe’s life experiences, thoughts, advice, and much more. We have to confess that we haven’t finished reading it yet, but we started with the chapters about GenkiJACS. The book is of course written in Japanese, but could be a really interesting read for former students of Hamabe-sensei, as well as anyone else with good kanji skills. And congratulations to Mr. Hamabe on publication! It’s great to see his hard work pay off.
