Alissa

(Host Mother)

Alissa is always full of energy. She accepted a Japanese student when she was a child. She is very good at cooking. She made me many dishes that I wanted to eat. I was surprised that she made everything by herself. I spent a lot of time with her. We talked about many things, for example, different cultures between America and Japan.

Ralph

(Host Father)

I was surprised that Ralph can speak Japanese a little, for example, greetings and numbers. He is very good at pickleball. He usually played games and worked on his computer at home. He was always serious when we played games together. His laughter sounds very funny for me.

Remi

(Host Sister)

Remi likes dresses, and she has a lot of dresses. She lent me her dress. She likes listening to music, and she usually listens to some music and sings some songs. When we went to a gym, she became a hard trainer, but she was always kind. She took me many pictures. Her laughter sounds funny for me too.

Genie

(Host Sister)

I enjoyed making pancakes and waffles on the weekends with Genie. She likes hugs, so she always hugged everyone including me. She likes the color purple, so she has a lot of purple things. She is interested in everything, so she tries many things. She is always cheerful.

CC

(cat)

CC is usually quiet and cool, but she likes something like a long string very much. She sometimes played with it and ran around.
