Less than 2 weeks from now (on the 5th of July) I'll be heading to Japan. Am I excited? That's undetermined. However, I feel grateful for the opportunity. |

I've also been attending weekly Exchange Preparation classes with Mr Ali. During these lessons we’ve discussed culture shock, money, going to the toilet, sleeping of futons and don’t even get me started on Onsen! In Jishukan High School, I will be taking subjects that aren't offered at Aorere College like Swimming and Judo. I think it's strange to have those as subjects, but I'm willing to try.
The best part of these lessons was learning about my buddy and host family.
Meet Junna. She's 15 years old, loves music and lives with her parents and older brother. I know we'll teach each other a lot and I'm excited to meet her family. |

Welcome to Japan Tina! If I am right then you will have not long touched down and so hope you all had a safe and enjoyable flight. I look forward to hearing all about it on your blog and don't worry if you chopsticks skills still need some honing as you will get plenty of opportunity now for that!
