The July heat has arrived. You might consider spending time outside of the city in cooler temperatures on an enjoyable hike in Miura, as featured in this month’s issue. We also highlight two new university campuses in Naka-ku that make Yokohama an even livelier and more attractive international destination for higher education. July is the perfect time of year to enjoy a day by the ocean, a barbeque party, and of course your get-away summer vacation. As the great British author of children’s literature and short stories Roald Dahl once said, “If I had my way, I’d remove January from the calendar altogether and have an extra July instead.”
