there's no place like home.

I just got the email this week about my placement and I am oh so excited. My welcome letter came complete with maps, a contract and tons of information. I will be working for the Niigata Municipal Board of Education. The best part is that the office is about a 15 minute walk away from my apartment. I will be on a rotation between the 5 local junior high schools. The average winter temperature is -1 to 7* C and the summers are described as tropical. The average snowfall is only one meter! I am very excited to move somewhere with less snow than here.

If you care to write to me...I would love it. Here is my address:
Kitaku-Toei-cho 3-6-2 Ribate haitu 201
Niigata-shi
Niigata-ken, JAPAN 950-3323
