What was your high point in 2021?

<div>Send us your stories about your favorite experience this year and how it got you through the challenges of 2021. It could be a new hobby you started, a trip you were finally able to take after getting vaccinated, things you did for other people, anything really as long it helped to make 2021 a memorable year for you. <br> <br> Record a voice memo on your phone — the inbuilt app is totally fine — and tell us your story along with your name and where you're recording from. Try and keep it to only a couple of minutes in length. Once you're done, email your recording to deepdive@japantimes.co.jp with the subject line “So long, 2021.” <br> <br> Please send your recordings by Friday, December 24 to play before the New Year. Thank you.<br> <br> Listen to last year's episode, <a href="https://www.japantimes.co.jp/podcast/episode-76-long-2020/">here</a>.</div>
