Description

Today I chat with Faye Valtadoros, a  Japanese teacher in Michigan who lived in Japan and taught English there through the JET Program. She shares her experiences, what she's learned, and what she teaches her students about how to make the most of their time in the country. This episode will be particularly useful to anyone looking to move to Japan for any length of time, though her stories and thoughts are worth listening to for anyone with an interest in Japan.

Today's Phrase: 
いただきます
i-ta-da-ki-ma-su
Meaning: "I [humbly] accept."
Usage: set phrase used before eating
