hi..long time no see..
ok to make long story short,this is my first time of going to homestay..
actually this is not the usual homestay prog.as i met my foster mother(Ayako) during my visit to sadou island in niigata.
it happens that being the unusual type of japanese,Ayako-san loves to have foreigner friends or what we call here in japan--gaijin(which,annoyingly means "alien" in their small,secluded community huhuh).
as i said this was the first time for me to visit japanese-style house,i didn't know what to expect,so i brought along my family album and some souvenirs for the family.
it turned out that Ayako's husband(whom i call papa) owns a cake house,and their house is not the usual japanese-style house but instead,western-style house with a combination touch of french and english interior..and the hostility was tip top..
this page is dedicated especially to my mom who shares the same hobby like Ayako,which is gardening,and i hope they can meet some time in future.. and to my younger sis who dreams of opening her own cake house one day...enjoy d pics!
