こんにちは !! I am Romain, the new intern from France!
I arrived in Japan few weeks ago and yet I can say that I have done a lot of things and たのした a lot!


 Me fui como intern de Hippo en México por un año antes de llegar en Japón entonces ya sé un poco de Hippo… ¡Me gusta mucho el entorno multingüe y este estilo de vida único!


Je trouve ça génial que tant de personnes soient impliquées dans le projet, j’espère que Hippo va continuer de grandir de plus en plus!


Como les dije ya he hecho un buen de cosas aquí…

Je suis arrivé lors de la Golden Week du coup j’ai eu pas mal de temps pour visiter un peu le Japon… Par exemple je suis allé à Kurukuma et j’ai vu le Grand Buddha, c’était impressionnant!


I also went to the Caballeros Camp, we were more than 200 men (only)! Can you imagine that? That was super fun and I could talk a lot in Japanese and different languages with the Hippo Members
With the Hippo Judo Club we did a judo presentation. That was　めちゃ　うれし !! We had a lot of fun remixing the track of Ichiro going in the school bus…

-          どこからきたの ?
-          Mmmm 日本だけど
-          Waaa 日本 ?! Yaaa 柔道　できるでしょ ?
-          柔道 ?? YES OF COURSE !!!


Mis familias y los miembros de Hippo son todos buena onda, disfruto mucho mi tiempo aquí porque no veo el tiempo pasar. Estoy en Japón por solo 4 meses porque tengo que regresar a la escuela en septiembre ☹ pero だよぶintento de disfrutar de casa momento que tenga!


Petit à petit les sons que j’entends deviennent de plus en plus clairs dans ma 頭… Je ne comprends pas encore tout mais j’arrive à m’imaginer de quoi on parle. C’est la première 言語 que j’apprends vraiment de manière naturelle (comme un こども) et c’est très intéressant d’observer le processus qui se passe dans mon cerveau…


Now I am in Sendai… A new adventure began! If you are from Sendai I hope to meet and have fun with you!! For my friends from Tokyo, we will see each other soon!
SENDAI

日曜日 Sendai 糸と ゆふとままやえしぶやおrestaurantたべた．かみしばいあなした．All the people from Sendai seem super cool. The lunch was really fun y nos tardimos un buen.

El lunes fuimos a la universidad!!
大学わdivertido. Hicimos la sesion en el aire y nadie tuvo verguenza.


J’ai visité le 大観音.　おき !!　おもしろい !! 仏教わおもしろいだからヨーロッパない.

ぼくはかそくわげんきとmamaのぃおりわうえし !!! Hippo Members are also super cool but I guess this is the same in all Japan 😉. Can’t wait to make new friends here!!

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,...
