This looks like where I live, the U.S. Pacific Northwest which is covered in tall fir and pine trees on masses of government land.

Wow, that is great you have so many trees! Forest-bathing or whatever it is called is definitely the way to go…

The U.S. government owns large parts of the western states, and in the Pacific Northwest, many "evergreen" trees grow here due to all the rain we have. The weather is said to resemble the U.K.'s, with more light sprinkling rain than hard downpours. Forty years ago, I moved here from the Midwestern part of the U.S. and have loved it ever since. They also have many waterfalls here, which are lovely!

I have never heard of the term "forest bathing," but I like that better than sunbathing because of what it does to one's skin. Thank you for your kind remarks!
