The Kasahara Family

I finally met my host family today!!!! They were there waiting the moment I stepped off of the train. There was tons of excitement and pictures being taken. I have a host father, a host mother, and a host sister who is about a week older then I am. Her name is Midori, although she goes by Mimi.
On the way to their house we stopped at their favorite bakery and bought every kind of bread and sweet roll imaginable for lunch. The Kasaharas live in a small suburb of Sendai City and it is beautiful. There are trees and lush greenery everywhere. We passed by my school on the way to the house. I start tomorrow!
