Bonjour!

Je m’appelle Stephanie Juarez. Surnom Mocosa. Tu puovez m’appeler Mocosa. Asante
J’ai 22 ans. Je viens des Etats-Unis. Soy de el estado de Oregon. I like to read, binge watch Netflix, and listen to music. He estado en Japón por 7 meses. Y han pasado muy rápido. Durante mi tiempo aquí he hecho muchas cosas nuevas y he aprendido mucho. Y me encanta Japon!

La semana pasada fui en un paseo en un bote por Tokyo. Fue durante la cena y pude ver los edificios de noche. Fue muy increíble poder ver Tokyo de noche así. Y durante ese tiempo pensé “ Wow! I have been here for 7 months! Que rapido paso el tiempo!”  Sooo enjoy your time.

When I arrived in Japan I participated in Hippo for the first time. I questioned it a lot and was very uncomfortable. After a couple of months I became more used to it and slowly my questions were answered. I can now say I enjoy the atmosphere created with every Hippo Family and the uniqueness brought into each one.
With this blog, as it was mentioned before by Adriana, is to update people around the world as to what Interns do on a weekly basis. Each post will be of a different intern per week and topics will vary. Enjoy reading about what we do or find interesting in that week. Until next time!

Hayley- Looking back

Looking Back The Month in Review: As we begin February, it is time for me  to write my monthly report. Technically speaking, I haven’t  been in Japan for a month yet, but this report covers all  that I have done in January. As part of the report, I put together a summary of different categories within my life.  While the following is rather dry, I thought my blog readers  might find it interesting and informative. Host Family: I have a wonderful host family, and I’ve enjoyed settling in and getting to know them. My 8-year-old host brother has adjusted to me, and we get along very well. My 13-year-old host sister has been a great help as I learn Japanese; she has a notebook where she writes down new Japanese words and phrases that I am learning. Sugoi-ne! My host parents are wonderful. My host mom makes me feel like part of the family. She understands about the little things that make one feel “included” in family life. Something as smal...

Daniel- Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! (Daniel) あけましておめでとう!! New Years is probably my favorite holiday because it is the only time I am expected to hang out with friends all night long. This is the first time I'm celebrating New Years in another land, far away from my friends and the mandatory  оливье . Still, I had fun learning the Japanese customs and traditions during New Years. Japanese people usually head to their hometowns to celebrate New Years with their extended families, causing train stations and airports to be crazy crowded. My host family and I traveled to Osaka, my host mom's hometown, to celebrate New Years with her parents. Most of our five days in Osaka were spent sitting around the  kotatsu  reading, sleeping, or watching TV. We greeted the New Year by watching a live-broadcast of Japan's most popular artists and celebrities performing famous songs. Four hours and fifteen minutes of J-Pop O.o Though I was far away from my  оливье , I enjoyed having an authe...
