PROFILE

• I observe somethings interesting from Nature using by my five senses in the study areas appropriately. I believe that Nature express the phenomena arising in natural environment as some regime to us. This is my stance for the study.First of all, observation is important, and count and measure it. Go around to the study area, frequently. Then, we can know the laws of nature.
