I have a experience to homestay in L.A. only for one month.
Actually I wanted to go to Boston.
Because when I was an university student, my major was English American Literature.
I chose a book which have story setting in Boston as a theme of graduation thesis.
But I gave up that. because of high cost.
a homestay in L.A. was cheaper than Boston.
And hostfamilies in L.A. are volunteer.
So cheaper than everywhere.
The participations were about 20 people from east and west side from Japan.
Some participations were unlucky.
Because their host family made them stay as a babysitter.
At that time, I was twenty years old.
In Japan, the twenties are celebrated as becoming adult.
Most Japanese women wear kimono japanese traditional clothes at a celebration party.
It costs expensive.
I thought if I wear kimono and take pictures, I wouldn't watch them later.
So I chose to homestay instead of wearing kimono.
Now, I ask many friends to have chance to watch the photo.
Nobody watch them.
I knew it.
I had a good choice.
