Chad

Chad is always kind. When I caught a cold, he made some hot drink for me.

He likes Japanese food, for example, gyoza(jiaozi), curry and rice and kewpie mayonnaise. He likes a Japanese retail company MUJI too. Actually, I work at a MUJI, so we talked about it.

Everyday, he taught me a lot of things, for example, English, American coluture, and so on. When I didn't understand the conversation, he talked to me in easy English to understand. It was helpful for me.

Host Father

Sloan

Sloan has such a cute smile, which made me happy everyday. She is a good cook. She works as a health coach, so she cooked me very healthy and delicious dishes. I like cooking too, so I enjoyed cooking with her.

I ate a lot of vegetables and fruits thanks to her. Sloan likes carrots and she eats carrots every day.

Host Mother

Rachel

Rachel is a beautiful and smart sister. She is one year older than me. When I needed some help, she always helped me like a real sister. We made a lot of memories together. My picture folder got full of Rachel's faces.

I was surprised to learn that she had been to Niigata and my hometown Shibata, so we talked about it often.

Rachel is a good singer and dancer. She was always singing while dancing with Tanner.

Host Sister

Tanner

Tanner is so funy and friendly. He is one year younger than me. He works at MOD Pizza. He is a hard worker. I was surprised when I met him because he looked quite matured for his age.

Tanner always carries a camera with him, so his instagram has a lot of good pictures. We used some gestures while talking when I couldn't catch his words.
