RealJames..you are like 35 ? o.O


anyway. my friend told me that living with her host family was probably the worst part of he experience that Japan had to offer. while friends at school were cool and fun the family was rather cold. they went to dinner and all the family did was to play game-boy that each one had. same with everyday life - usually watches tv or plays games. even when asked to cook them hers traditional foods they added rice since only potatoes are weird presumably.

well many families are like that but for 留学生 it was a bit disappointing since she didn't get much of a practise in a way of speaking with them. Other than that not much of a "pushing" or "stares" from others. probably since it was Osaka and everyone is used to gaijin.
