Here’s a translation for those who struggle with Japanese.
“Seika Town’s New Coordinator for International Relations, American Kai Wiesner-Hanks”
=Seika Town Minami Ina Yazuma
From a young age, Kai loved Japanese food and had a strong interest in Japan, studying Japanese history in college. He also studied abroad in Tokyo, and was a member of the Taiko and Judo clubs. Having just graduated in May of this year, believing that this could be a chance to improve his Japanese, he applied to be a coordinator for international relations.
He says that Seika town and Tokyo are very different, and that Seika is a much greener place. There are also many children in town who often call out and talk to him in town. He hopes to teach these children some American games to held spread internationalization. Because he likes to cook, he also wants to try and teach Japanese people some recipes they may not know.”
Well, that is pretty much what I said. The cooking will be interesting to see how it goes, but as long as I can teach Japanese people to make a burrito sometime, I’ll be happy.
oh papa
ReplyDeleteI think your cooking ambitions are a wonderful idea. While my son was attending APU-Ritsumeikan in Beppu, he enjoyed cooking "American" for his host family that he visited on weekends. In turn, they taught him recipes and showed him the tourist sights of that area. What a wonderful intercultural exchange!
ReplyDeleteBest of luck in your cooking project!
