I met my host family this past weekend... Quite an adventure. So far I'm enjoying the homestay, although it was a bit of a shock to discover that they don't have internet. I suppose this is my chance to experience a wireless world, but I believe I'm currently going through withdrawal.
On Saturday I helped my host mother make つけもの, or a type of Japanese pickled vegetable. We cut up the giant pile of...something (maybe similar to rhubarb?), boiled it with salt, and then soaked it with kombu (seaweed) and sugar.
Also, you can see my room!
