Meet the Ohsakis, the lovely Japanese family that has agreed to take not one, but two, clueless gaijin under their wings. The Ohsakis are my new host family here - we met on Sunday for a get-to-know-you lunch. Pictured here are only three of the family of seven (Mr. and Mrs. Ohsaki have two other children, plus grandma and grandpa live with them) and a fellow JET who's "sharing" them with me (hi, Jess!).
How cute is my imoto (little sister)? Her siblings are 11 and 13 - roughly the ages of the students I'm teaching - so this will be a great way for me to learn what makes a Japanese 'tween tick outside of school (I need all the help I can get, as I don't think I've hung out with Jr. High students since I was one). They're an incredibly sweet family, so I'll look forward to spending time with them!
