Ibrahim from Saudi Alabia stayed with us for about one month. He likes contact sports. So, he experienced Aikido at the gymnasium where my boss takes lesson.

↑He got this certification after the lesson.

He is also good at doing UFO cacher, and he always gave us huge sweets which he got from there. It makes us happy!
