About my host family.

 My host family is from Nepal. They are Hindu and lacto-vegetarian.

 Host father, Ganesh tells me a lot about Hindi. Every morning, he prays. And he eats some kinds of fruits that say a prayer as a habit. We eat many fruits too. It likes me, because I really like fruits.


There are four people in my host family, father, mother, and two children. Kiran is ten years old boy, and Uji is twelve years old boy. We play badminton in the sports centre, play trampoline in our house. Every day, we play together, for example, watching movies, playing Wii sports, "Pictionary"game, bowling, and so on. We spend really good time enjoying with our host family.

 Grandfather and grandmother are coming now. They are also from Nepal and they cannot speak English. Iwas so surprised that I thought it was so difficult to communicate with their grandchildren. I wonder how to communicate each other. Then I found one of the answers.  They are using non-verbal language. Gestures and expressions tell us their feeling more than words. It seems that they have much more varieties of expressions than Japanese. Even if the language is different, they are very close to each other. They have really good relationships.  It was impressive for me.

 I don't know Nepali except for"Namasute", however I can surely communicate with them if I try to do so. I try my best!!!
