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, EnglishJapanese, 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.

Hayley- Life goes on

Life goes on Yesterday, I was able to go into work for about half the day.  It was great being there, but it struck me how tired everyone looked.  It wasn't just them though. . . I know I looked tired too.  The emotional toll of the past days has been very draining.  There is so much going on, and so much uncertainty as events continue to unfold.  No matter where you turn, there is something to remind you that life is not as it should be. I look at my laptop, where BBC News' Live Stream reminds me of the unfolding situation at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.   I think of the rescue efforts in the north and all of the people who are living in temporary shelters.    And yet, looking outside this morning, life appears to be normal.  The sun is shining, people are riding by on their bikes, and the kindergarten bus shaped like a giant dachshund just drove past . . . to all appearances, life is normal.   ...

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.

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...
