A Message to Students and Parents

Japan was the first country I visited outside of my language comfort zone and it was a humbling experience and a reminder of how important language and culture play a role in our lives. Japan is a beautiful country with gorgeous landscapes, a wide range of experiences to explore, and amazing food! I am looking forward to returning to Japan next summer to learn more about Japanese culture, and to share this unforgettable experience with the students."
