Homestay

Went with 2 other JETs (Kate and Katie) and 2 Australian high school exchange students to the Sekine family's house for a homestay.

The Sekine family lives in a big 3-storey house. There are Grandma and grandpa, Chiharu and husband, and Chiharu's 5-year-old daughter Koharu and 2-year-old son Kanta. The children are hyperactive and Kanta is really cute! Koharu fell in love with Australian exchange student George, who is 16 years old, and declared that she wants to marry him. The children have a playroom on the second floor that has a loft!

For the special occasion, Chiharu's elder sister, Midori, returned home. The Sekine's family friends Yamoto-san and Kyoko also joined us.

After a fabulous dinner of mushroom and koniyaku rice, fried chicken, salad with bacon, miso soup, etc, we all retired early. The plan is to go mountain vegetable (sansai)-picking tomorrow morning at 6am!
