This blog is designed mainly for Christ Methodist Day School students, as part of my follow-on plan for the Japan Fulbright Memorial Fund Teacher Program. Through it, students will be able to share my experiences as I prepare for my trip, travel to Japan, and learn new things each day about the Japanese people and their culture. Follow me to the Land of the Rising Sun, and let's see what we can learn!
