Day 11 The End of an Era (last day)|| Emily & Ella

Fukuoka + Overall Trip Reflection Video || Emily and Ella Hello everyone it’s Emily & Ella 😀!! We will be sharing our last day in Fukuoka and a video we made to capture all of our special moments we experienced together throughout our trip to Japan. For our last day in Japan please read below and we hope you enjoy the video of the overall Japan trip ;) To start our day, we got to go to the lobby to eat breakfast. After breakfast, we finished packing the rest of our belongings to check out of the hotel by 10 am. A few of us met the group at the restaurant as we were sick and had to get checked on by awesome chaperones. We left all of our belongings at the hotel lobby and made our way to lunch. The group ate a very filling lunch at Hakata Hanamidori Hakata Station Store restaurant. It was our very last day in both Fukuoka and Japan. At Hakata Hanamidori rest...

Global Citizens: Diplomats in Class || Joshua & Jay

Tokyo and Kawasaki Day 3&4 | Joshua and Jay Today is our third day in Japan! Jayneson and I (Joshua) woke up bright and early (lie) to greet the morning sun. For the first in a while, I, and a few other students agreed at breakfast we were closer to adjusting to the new time zone. Unfortunately, we did not have the luxury of a slow morning as we had to be down by breakfast at 7:15 am. After a hearty breakfast, we were picked up by bus to make our way to the US Embassy here in Japan. Entering without our electronics, we were greeted with multiple security checkpoints and a shrine dedicated to President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, and Secretary of State Antony Blinken.

We had the valuable opportunity to talk about each professional's career in foreign affairs. Our questions ranged...

Day 9 (Hiroshima) | Ari and Julie こんにちは！Today was our only day in Hiroshima, made infamous as one of two cities in Japan who were affected by the atomic bombs dropped by United States bombers to accelerate the end of World War II. Our day started pretty early, since we had to be done with breakfast by 8:15 am, and a lot of us were still tired from the previous day in Himeji. However, we were allowed to go to breakfast on our own time, as long as we were all in the lobby by 8:30 and ready to go. Our first destination was Eikei University! We had met with some of the university students virtually prior to the trip, so we were excited to meet them face-to-face. When arriving at the university, we split up into small groups of 3-4 students and went to separate classrooms. Julie and I, Ari, went to Professor George’s class first, speech class!! The class was spoken entirely in English and we focused on body language while giving a presen...
