Hello everyone, recently I had the pleasure of interviewing two young students who I met through my college's host family program. For privacy reasons I refer to them as Y and M. One of them is in highschool, and the other is in Junior highschool. During my time in Japan, I've become quite close to my host family and often return to their house to make food or even just to practice English and Japanese together.
Breakfast:
Y: I usually eat rice and miso soup, or Fried rice.
M: For breakfast, rice, baked salmon, miso soup, natto (fermented soybeans), and Japanese pickles.
Lunch:
Y: Usually, I eat school lunch.
M: The same.
Dinner:
Y: Usually, I eat rice, miso soup, and fish.
M: Kiriboushi Daikon (dried daikon radish)
Y: Old, Japanese house. With tatami floors, and low tables. We sit on the floor on a zabuton. (A floor cushion)
The house is two stories tall.
