Dear Alissa

Hi, Alissa!

Long time no see! How are you doing?

Thank you for supporting our homestay. I spent a great time with you.

You are always bright with smile and friendly. First, I was nervous, but thanks to your smile, I got energy.

You taught us a lot of things. For example, I learned that to say "No" is important. I got courage to say "No."

Then, I enjoyed dancing and singing with you, and I was glad that I visited many famous places with you.

I really enjoyed spending the time in America. I am very happy to meet you.

I would like to see you again!

Dear David and TerriLee

Hi, David and TerriLee!

Long time no see! How are you doing?

Thank you for sharing great three weeks with me.

Before I met you, I was nervous, but you were very kind and listened seriously to my stories. I was happy.

David often made me smile. You are kind and your jokes are funny, and your truck and hat are very cool. I like them. Then, I really enjoyed making Japanese dishes with you. You were good at making hand-rolled sushi.

TerriLee is good at cooking. All of your dishes were really tasty, and I was surprised because you had many convenient kitchen goods. I was excited using them. I would like to cook with you again.

Your house is really comfortable and your four cats are very cute. I was able to relax and enjoy my homestay.

You took me to many places. For example, Ms. Gracie's house, Akasaka, the zoo, the aquarium, the flight museum and so on. Thanks to you, I was able to learn and experience a lot.

I really enjoyed homestaying in America. I am so glad to meet you.

I'm looking forward to meeting you again!
