It can be really difficult, Japan is a great country to visit, but quite difficult to be accepted into communities and families. It isn't impossible since I know people who have done it, but I'm not there yet.<br /><br />Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00476943539943172099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6650276814399338933.post-87505320746333194742017-03-06T21:00:57.137+09:002017-03-06T21:00:57.137+09:00So nice to see the places where you come from.

I didn't stay there, just had meetings and such. <br /><br />I'm glad that you have visited Edmonton.

It looks like a castle and I think it was called the Hotel Macdonald. I will never forget the room as it had windows that looked out over the beautiful river and park-like area on the other side. Now that I’ve seen your post I wish I had John's Islandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03618219887687125402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6650276814399338933.post-77854878198973353162017-03-04T12:36:49.720+09:002017-03-04T12:36:49.720+09:00Thanks Maria, I'm glad that you liked the card...Thanks Maria, I'm glad that you liked the cards.

It's lovely to read what you wrote about your home town, your university, and the reason why you picked it. I hope you're having a nice weekend.
