Hey oh y’all,
Greetings from Japan!
I have finally (and this time intentionally) arrived in
Tokyo!
So here’s the gameplan for the next 9 months: For the first
week, I will be in Tokyo, hanging out with a bunch of ALC friends. Then,
next week, I will travel down to the south of Japan to an area called Wakayama.
It's a beautiful rural area south of Kyoto. This past summer,
thanks to the Wakayama International Exchange Association and the Los Angeles
Wakayama Kenjinkai, I was able to explore the area of my great-grandfather’s
birthplace. I was able to stay with an awesome host family, who I will join for New Year’s. Finally, starting in January, I will begin my study abroad
in Kyoto (Doshisha University), where I will be joined by both ALC participants
and Stanford friends (and in the spring, a few ALC coordinators will come too).
Then in the summer, I will put my can-an-American-tourist-survive-in-Asia skills to the test during a summer internship (likely
Kyoto/Osaka area).
Let’s have a great 9 months! Gambarimashou!
Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays!
