Because that was only for a few weeks, I think that it was easier for her to make that sacrifice.
I'm going back, this time for a year. I'm a little worried. It'll probably be more difficult for the host family to give me the food I need since I'll be with them for a longer time. Yes, I'm going to try to immerse myself into my host family's life. No, I don't want to be sick.
Any advice, comments?

im not in japan, but what they usually serve on table? i recall there should be miso soup or somethin. then just eat some on table that is not a seafood based, that is after u tell them ur allergic be4 hand. not enough? go buy chicken ramen or bento box, its quite cheap, i guess?
NB: oww, dont tell any of host member bout u eatin out, a lil rude to the host mother
