Japanese Culture Experience! 4Day Homestay in Itakura! During the time from Oct. 31th until Nov. 3rd it was Toyo University’s pleasure to welcome the exchange students to Itakura Campus in Gunma prefecture. This special program was meant to provide the students with the opportunity to see and experience life first hand in a typical countryside of the Kanto area. As part of the program, host families in Itakura shared their homes and their lives with the students and showed them how they live and what being a member of a Japanese family means. Huh?
