    She is very sweet...she is 16 nearly 17
    She was very surprised when she got her itinerary and saw the size of our family
    She brought gifts with her...lots of hello kitty for the girls...so there are stickers every where
    They have even made it onto my lappy ;P
    It helps to have a japanese/australian dictionaries!
    She has a electronic translator which has proved to be very handy all ready. My dd1 (16) is introducing her to facebook
    Is she doing exchange thru the school?
    Yes through my kids high school.
    I think it is a wonderful thing to participate in.

    We hosted a Japanese teacher for a year, she was 22. It was a fantastic experience! If you have any questions feel free to ask.

    Have a great time with her!

    We hosted a Japanese uni student for a month a year ago. She was lovely and it was a great expereience but after 2 weeks I wanted my house back and she started to get confident enough to complain about my cooking! LOL!
