 你好!Hello! Hola! こんにちは!

Hi everyone! I’m Bruce, the intern from Taiwan in LEX America.

I had stayed in Boston for almost 2 months, and I kind of felt like Boston is my second hometown now.

My family had several homestay experience before form LEX, that’s the first I knowing  about LEX. And then my sister Nancy, became an intern in LEX in Japan for a year, she recommended me should experience it. (With all the blessing and exciting, here I come, Boston!)
Since we don’t have LEX club in Taiwan, so this is my first time to join the LEX club, and I was enjoyed in it a lot!
For me, it’s a whole new way to learn another language like this. It’s more natural and you felt absolutely comfortable in the community that create by LEX. And I think it’s easier for kids and adults to develop their first or second language in this 
environment, and also they know the concept of sharing and other social skills.
My hostfamily were super nice and friendly to me, so I don’t have to worry about what to do on weekend.Living with hostfamily, I felt I’m the part of their family and having a strong connection with them. The relationship between me and my hostfamily is more like family not just friends.And by living with them, I felt fully immersed myself in their culture and that’s the things you never experienced by only traveling.

I have traveled around Boston and the nearby city by myself too! Always exciting to visit new cities and those famous places!Time Flies, it’s already two months passed, I’ll keep exploring and learning in the last one month!


For those who are interested in being an intern in Boston, just do it!

Michael- Arrival in Japan

Arrival In Japan What an experience! I'm Michael Gobin. I will be the 2009-2010 LEX Intern in the Tokyo Office. LEX America has been telling you a lot about me, so I won't take a lot of space on introductions. I will be contributing to this blog a couple times a month over the next year. However, my mentor here in the office is gone on a multi-country adventure for the next week, so I will be spending those days contributing more often. I'll try to paint a picture of what my first few days in Japan have been like. Even though I spent 14 hours on a plane headed to Japan. It wasn't until I took those first steps off the plane that it hit me like I walked through a curtain that I was in Japan. First of all, it was immediately warmer. Kana went from being an equal language in places where it mattered, to everywhere with English only as a back-up in the important areas. Most importantly though, I became completely illiterate and that's when I knew the adventure h...
