On January 25, KISSA hosted an exchange event “KISSA Mochi-tsuki,” between international and Japanese students at Kakuma-no-sato. KISSA is a club that provides a forum for exchange between Japanese and international students at Kanazawa University. About 60 students participated in the event and ate rice cakes made with a mortar (Usu) and pestle (Kine) and covered with soybean flour (Kinako) and red bean paste (Anko). Although it was a cold day, the students warmed their hearts and bodies with traditional Japanese games, such as origami, kendama, and fukuwarai (Japanese folklore game).

1月25日，KISSA主催で留学生と日本人学生の交流イベント「KISSA お餅つき」を角間の里にて開催しました。KISSAは金沢大学の日本人学生と留学生との交流の場を提供しているサークルです。約60名の学生が参加し，杵と臼でついたお餅にきなこやあんこをまぶして食べました。寒い日ではありましたが，折り紙やけん玉，福笑いなど日本伝統の遊びを交えながら，心も身体も温まりました。
