So we have made it to our little holiday! A week of teaching and now 5 days off. That's the life. We both love the teaching and our students are all lovely. The adults are so interested and engaging. The kids are up for a laugh and everyone, any age gets a buzz out of being able to communicate something that a few minutes ago they could not!
I am struggling with Japanese but if we want to do anything outside of school/home we'll need to get good. This is a very small foreigner free zone. We're the only gaigin (foreigners) in Seki. People nearly crash their cars looking at us in the street and one girl walked into her open car door this morning because she was so surprised to see us!
Everyone is kind though and I think if we can speak a little and make ourselves understood they will do everything to make it easy for us.
Anyway I'm on a high after getting through this week and we're baking muffins and sipping Khalur at 10.30 pm so sayonara for now.
With love xxxxxxxxxxxxx
