HOME | EXCHANGESPAST EXCHANGES | JAPAN EXCHANGE

 

Gaylord Becker

have nothing unusual to report about the homestays in Taketa City and Matsuyama, Japan. The Japan exchange was my first exchange experience. My only regret is that I did not spend more time studying and leaning more of the Japanese language. The most unusual thing was in the San Francisco airport, where Willie Nelson’s double was in line for United check-in with a five gallon plastic pail and a shopping bag as his traveling gear. He paid for his ticket with a roll of cash after some lengthy discussion with the ticket agent.  Mike Heavican and I had never met personally before the Japan trip. We were compatible roommates. I am looking forward to the Birmingham, Alabama exchange in June.
