Yasu, Hiro and Kimiko

This summer, we had the privilege to be a host family to the Katoka family from Japan.  They stayed with us for a month and we hope that they will come back every summer.  It was a great experience for our family to learn about a new culture and language.  What did we learn?  Japanese are kind, humble people who care deeply about family, nature and education.  Personally, I LOVE to learn about world cultures and languages because it gives me a global perspective and love for life.  ありがとう

Hero, the silly six-year old.
