A Long Way from Home

Yuri Kato (left) and Yumi Kawakami are
exchange students from Aichi Gakusen in Toyota City,
Japan. In addition to studying E.S.L. and Canadian
culture, Yuri is taking drawing classes, and Yumi,
music. Although both admitted to feeling a little
homesick, they smiled broadly when asked if they liked
Canada. Yumi says “it’s not so cold in Japan”, and they
both thought our Hallowe’en customs were fun, but a
little strange.

Yuri says she wants to be a travel agent eventually
and realizes her experience in Canada will be an
advantage, but insisted it would be difficult to get such

a desirable job in the highly-competitive Japanese job
market. Yumi says she would like to be a public school
teacher, but says “there are already enough teachers
now.” She hopes perhaps to find a place in a private
school. Both will be at Cap through Christmas then fly
back to Japan.
