I'm in Saitama for my home stay, and it's the first time I've ever been here. To be honest, it's so nice to get out of the big cities for a little while and enjoy spending some time in a smaller town.
Today I had the pleasure of visiting a Japanese high school called Inagakuen. My host mother teaches there, and she showed me around the school. I was lucky enough to watch some of the kids practice karate, and they were excited to practice their English skills with me.
Even though I'm not at camp right now, I still feel like a counselor sometimes, and that's a good feeling. Last night, I helped out with a private English lesson briefly, and I'll have the same opportunity tonight with a different student.
My host mother is showing me some interesting Japanese musicians, and I'm now hooked to the song "Dragon Night" by Sekai No Owari. If I have the opportunity, I might buy one of their CDs.
That's all for now, and as usual, take care!
