モコサです

Añohaseo, Je iro mun Stephanie Juarez eo. Pyulmuo ung Mocosa eo. Mocosa rago plojuseo. Chyl buta turimida. 

Esto es en Coreano. Se lo pueden creer, vine a Japon y pense "a si voy aprender Japones." Peeeero no nomas Japones e aprendido tambien un poco de Coreano, Frances, y mi Español a mejorado. Guau! 
Now I am with my 3rd Host Family. My family consists of my dad, mom, and 3 younger sisters. I currently live in a very 多言語 household. We speak in Spanish, English, Japanese, and at times we throw Portuguese words around.I enjoy spending time with them and they are all very nice. 守屋ファン。いつもありがとう
This is my former Host sister and she is the cutest little human (ちさいひと) ever! She now sends me videos asking me to hang out with her. Or asking me where I am.  Her name is Hana. Ella me llama Macosa, no Mocosa! かわいい beaucoup!めちゃMinion!! Muy Linda!♡ 
Ellos son Mexicanos que conoci en Japon. Uno es Ivan y el otro Iram. They both came to Japan for a year-long exchange. Now Iram is in Japan and Ivan came back to visit. They both told me how funny it was to be in Japan and still be able to speak Spanish. "Es chistoso conocernos en Japon y estar aqui hablando en Español" Y es verdad! Lo increible de Hippo es que no nomas conoces de nuevos idiomas y culturas. Sino haces muchos amigos y te acceptan por quien eres. 
We had our Intern Kondankai yesterday. This is where the interns from different countries get together and talk, to people that join, about the different experiences. Now there are 5 interns from different countries. As shown below. Todos los que pudieron venir y participar Muchas Gracias. Thank you for attending.

Stephanie-こんにちは！Konnichiwa! Hello!

こんにちは！Konnichiwa! Hello! My host sister Asuka and I in 小えど, Japan Hi everyone!  My name is Stephanie, but in Japan I've already been given the nickname  Su-chan　 す－ちゃん    (su from Stephanie since the Japanese pronunciation is su-teh-fah-nee, and -chan is added to the end of a name when you are speaking to a younger person or a friend), so you can call me Su-chan! I am one of the five Hippo interns working in the LEX headquarters office in Tokyo this year. In addition to me, from Wisconsin, the intern team is made up of Tino from Mexico, Sakun and Ken Ken from China, and Hiu-chan from Korea. It's great to have such an international group!    Before coming to Japan I attended the University of Wisconsin and graduated with a degree in fine art. During that time I also worked for Wisconsin 4-H International Programs, which is how I first learned about Hippo through the 4-H/Hippo summer and yearlong exchanges. Last summer I had the opportun...

Jess- Half Way

Half Way The arrival of March marks my halfway point through my Year-Long stay in Japan. In the past six months I have made more language discoveries than I am even aware of. Japanese, Thai, and Korean have started sneaking their way into my dreams at night and are invading my thoughts throughout the day.

At the end of the school visit, the guy from Korea came up to me and asked "nan nen gurai nihon ni imasuka?" "how many years have you lived in Japan?"
