hostfamily

alright sailors, i'll keep this one short.


I've been doing plenty of fun stuff lately, it has snowed a lot.

I am changing host families tomorrow,

I like my current host family, they dont have any very comfortable furniture, they dont bend any rules for me, and the laundry system has officially stretched several of my favourite tee's beyond redemption, but they are fantastic people. They have treated me with the utmost hospitality since my arrival, but at the same time have treated me like a real member of the family; I do my own chores, I have cut wood for them, I have helped renovate a building they own, I call them Mother and Father, I have climbed mountains and harvested sunflowers with them and their grandchildren, I play basketball at the community center with my host brother and his friends.

I dunno, I owe them a lot. I have Japanese life figured out here, its going to be lame having to adjust again, being twenty minutes farther from my friends in their apartment, and that much farther from school as well.

here some pictures i havent posted anywhere else yet.
