¡Hola todos! 
Soy Adriana Lizeth Guerrero Tamayo, soy de México y ahora tengo 22 años. Pronto cumpliré 23 el día 12 de este mes! Por lo que estoy muy contenta de poder pasar mi cumpleaños en otro país. Será un festejo muy diferente. 
Now I'm living in Japan doing an Internship with LEX Hippo Family Club and I'll be here until next year! In Mexico I'm member of Hippo since 2012, and thanks to this I had the opportunity to travel and meet people from all over the 世界 (world) 
今私は1か月ここに住んでいる‼ Y he vivido muchísimas cosas en tan poco tiempo.
Ahora estoy trabajando en apoyar en la preparación de los diferentes intercambios que hay aquí para los socios que van de intercambio a México. Pero por ejemplo esta semana tuve la oportunidad de ir al 多言語雪の学校! que es un campamento multilingüe organizado por LEX y estuvo increíble, hablé en varios idiomas con ayuda de mis nuevos amigos de China, Indonesia, Rusia, y más de 15 países diferentes, todos dispuestos a pasar 4 días de momentos muy divertidos y muchas actividades muy interesantes como hacer helado con la nieve de ahí! :O!! Que chido no?


Keep reading this blog, all the Hippo interns will upload content weekly!

Daniel- こにちわ！！

こにちわ！！　(Daniel) Hello,こにちわ, bonjour,  Привет ! My name is Daniel Panasenko, and I am the 2012-2013 LEX intern in the Hippo office in Tokyo. I am from Sacramento, California, although originally from Dnipropetrovs'k, Ukraine.  I first came across LEX and Hippo when I came to Japan with People to People in 2009. I was hosted by members of the Hippo Family Club for four days, and I enjoyed the experience so much, that I came back to work for Hippo as an intern. Although I am fairly new to Hippo, I have been received warmly and welcomed into the Hippo family. Everyone at the office and at the family clubs are very kind, supportive, and incredibly patient as I unintentionally butcher their language. As the year progresses, I will blog about my experiences in Japan as well as my insights into the language and culture. Although I am a bit overwhelmed by the novelty of the lifestyle and language, but I am more than happy to be here, making fascinating new discoveri...

Dannielle- Setsubun

Setsubun In February, there is a holiday in Japan called Setsubun. In celebration of the special day, I ventured out to Nagatacho (close to my work here in Shibuya) and visited the Hie Temple. It was so beautiful and peaceful up on a small hill, and oddly placed among the city life of Tokyo. It was crowded with people (but not too crowded, hence why I chose Nagatacho over Asakusa) standing in front of the temple "stage", within which we could hear some music and see some people inside dancing and preparing for the event. Because I got there earlier, I had to wait a bit, and so I talked with the older couple that stood next to me. Turns out, the husband and wife had been to the US before and lived in New Orleans about 10 years ago, so we eased into some great conversation. Very sweet people. When the event started, I witnessed a person dressed as an oni (demon) emerging from inside the temple, being drawn out by the priests who threw beans at him and shou...

Danielle- Shopping Malls

Shopping Malls I noticed I don't talk about shopping enough, so here's a brief overlook of some of my favorite shopping malls (so far~) out here in Japan. AEON I have one about 5 minutes away from my local train station here in Chiba. It feels very homey to me, just because it's really spacious and open and reminds me of a shopping mall I had back in Illinois. What I love about Aeon, too, is that it has a bunch of different stores (other than just clothes). On the first floor, you have your groceries, bakery, and cosmetics, and stuff like that. On the other floors, you have your clothes, electronics, food court (talk about majorly nostalgic, especially with the KFCs and Subways), and mini arcade. Chiba is kind of out-of-the-way, and so Aeon has been a very convenient place for me to buy my toiletries and CalorieMate... and just walk around, if I feel like it. I bought my first winter coat there and some gloves, and it was all reasonably priced, I think (granted,...
