Smasha!

I'm going to be in Takayama-shi, Gifu-ken... so about 2.5 hour drive from you! I know someone who is in Yamagata-shi (teaching on another program), so I will definitely have reason to be out that way. PLUS... sounds like everyone in my city has a car, so I'm assuming/hoping that I'll be getting one.

I used to live in Gifu-shi, so I'm already familiar with the prefecture.

You're from Victoria too right? PM me if you're interested and we can connect on facebook/meet for coffee or something!

Hello Smasha!
This is Heather, one of two current ALTs in Ono-cho. It looks like you'll be taking over for me in August!
We have many things to talk about, I'm sure, and you must have many questions.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have!

Hello everyone,

I just signed up. I'll be placed somewhere in Saitama-ken as a prefectural ALT. I'm from Vancouver :) Any one else going to Saitama?

Well, I'm not going to Gifu-ken, but I'll be in Hyogo-ken, and I'm from Alberta, so this humidity thing might just kill me! :shock: We'll see :lol:
