Home Stay Life

The home stays were the cultural equivalent of jumping in the deep end with only a few brief swimming lessons for most of the kids. Jereme, Samora, Akeem, Eva and Dylan share some of their delights, dismays, shocks and, ultimately memorable moments of their home stay experience in this recording made shortly after the first night of their home stays. Listen now!

  3. Your impressions are so wonderful to read about. I am laughing to myself as I remember my first months in Japan and the discoveries to be made. I love the story from the girls about the hostess who kept them in their rooms. Suzanne
