Minori's report 

Host family diary 1

 🤗Cheryl's house

 My first host family was  Cheryl's family!!

 They are very lovely!! She arranges my host family, the schedule, and so on.

 In her house, I had a lot of special experiences.

 For example, Mornington Beach! She took me there and paddled my feet in the ocean.

The ocean was very beautiful!! 

Another day, I enjoyed the BBQ in her house. Actually, this was my first time that I had!!! I was so excited!!

And, she likes various dishes from around the world. So, I cooked Japanese dishes, Japanese Curry rice and Sushi! I was glad that they liked them.

In addition, I watched Rugby, Football with her daughters!! The one of them is Tiahna! This was the first time that I saw them live. They were very impressive.

And, it was so fun for me on even casual days. Watching a movie on TV together, going to shopping, and taking a walk... They were all special. I got a lot of other things from her family. I spent about 3 weeks there, but felt so fast. It was so special! Thank you for your  invitation and kindness ❤️

🤗Langley's house 

My second host family is Langley's family! 

Thank you for your invitation!!! 

This family's mother is very kind! She is good at cooking and always cooks yum yum dishes!  And, the father is good at playing cricket!  They took me to a cricket game. This was the first time that I watched. I was surprised that it was so tough.

The daughters are Eloise and Isla, grade 5 and 2. They are very lovely and friendly. I sometimes play trampoline, basketball, and tag with them!! It's so fun!

I spent Mother's Day with the family. We enjoyed the special brunch at the restaurant and after that, walk around it. Then, I saw wild kangaroos! I will tell you more stories next time.

Great Ocean Road!

Last weekend, Tiahna took me to Great Ocean Road, which is one of the most famous places in Melbourne. I was so happy!! She drove so long. We saw Twelve Apostles, and so on. It was very beautiful. Then, During driving, we enjoyed listening music, eating some snacks, and talking. I tried a lot of snacks which were the first time that I tried. Maltesers, FANTALES, LIFE SAVERS... So yum!

After that, we stayed at Warrnambool. We enjoyed dinner, watching movies.

On the next day, we went to Flagstaff Hill Maritime Village. This was the old town and very beautiful. Then, we went to the Japanese Festival at Box Hill. I got a lot of Japanese snacks!! Have you tried them before?? I like all of them!! If there is something you want to check out, please feel free to talk to me!!

By the way, this weekend was so amazing!! Thank you so much, Tiahna. And I am looking forward to sharing this experience to everyone!
