I am very humbled and excited to have been chosen as one of 165 educators to participate in the Japan Fulbright Memorial Fund experience in Japan during October 2008. During this three-week educational adventure sponsored by the Japanese government, I will learn about the Japanese educational system, culture, and ways of living and visit some very famous places. The most exciting aspects of this experience for me are to have opportunities to live with Japanese families, eat what they eat, visit their schools and cultural events, learn about their art, history, and music, and come to know new friends in a country I have not yet visited - and, crazy as it sounds, I really want to experience an earthquake, a little one...
Travel along with me October 12 through 30, meet my new friends, and learn a bit about a fascinating country and wonderful people!

I'm very excited for you, Vannetta! Have a great time. I'll be looking forward to your posts. I have a penpal from Japan and have enjoyed learning about her culture through our correspondence.
Yokoso!
Thank you for all the informative infomation.
Do you know what I like the most? --the sushi plate
Do you eat Japanese cuisine all the time? Are you tired of it?
