Hi!

 

My name is Verity and I'm from London. Nice to meet you!

 

My favorite color is green, and my favorite Japanese dish is okonomiyaki. I go to the gym 3 times a week. I also go swimming about 5 times a week.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I also love soccer, dancing and drinking beer. 

I studied Japanese and Music at a university in London.

I also studied for 1 year at Osaka University of Foreign Studies in Minoh.

It was really tough! I had to study traditional Japanese, linguistics, and learn 50 Chinese characters a week.

However, we had many parties, and I made a lot of friends.

After I graduated,

I lived in Kyoto for 1 an half years, where I worked as an assistant language teacher (ALT). I worked in about 7 different junior high and elementary schools in North Kyoto.

I really enjoyed working as an ALT; we played many English games, especially bingo and janken games.
