Nagomi Visit Guest Story: "it was a wonderful opportunity for the young men to exchange experiences and advice."

2025-06-25

Describe your host?

Our visit with [my host] and her family was an unforgettable experience. I was particularly excited to meet [my host], a mother of three teenage sons, as I have a 19-year-old son interested in studying abroad in Japan. [My host]’s sons have both studied abroad, so it was a wonderful opportunity for the young men to exchange experiences and advice.

The evening began with snacks and tea, giving the boys a chance to get to know each other. They quickly bonded over shared interests in anime, movies, and video games, and my son enjoyed practicing his Japanese while they practiced their English. Watching these young adults connect and share their worlds was truly heartwarming.

Later, we enjoyed a delicious home-cooked meal, and the lively conversations continued. The evening flew by, and none of us wanted it to end, but we had to catch the last bus. [My host]’s entire family kindly saw us off at the station, a gesture that perfectly reflected their warmth and hospitality.

As a fellow mom, I also loved chatting with [my host] as we watched our kids thoroughly enjoy the evening. It’s a memory I’ll treasure forever. Thank you, [my host] and family, for such a special experience!
