I've been writing this blog for about 8 years and it's probably the first time to handle Holland as a topic. That's because my youngest daughter set out for Holland a short while ago. She was dispatched to The Hague in Holland through the Youth Camp Exchange Program organized by the International Lions Club. Young exchange people from Japan to Europe are supposed to leave Japan tomorrow morning from three principal airports of Japan, i.e. Narita, Chubu and Kansai Airport. My daughter flew to Kansai Airport to get on-board tomorrow's flight LH741. All of them will get together at Frankfurt Airport when they arrive. Then they'll head for everyone's destination, like Amsterdam, Zurich, Helsinki, and so on.
Back to my daughter's story, it's her 7th time to go abroad, but the first time to visit Europe. She can speak English really fluently, but will be puzzled by other countries' unfamiliar customs. I hope those experiences will help her grow up. She is a budding doctor and wants to work in an international organization like WHO in the future.
She is due to stay with a Dutch family for 2 weeks and spend another 2 weeks in the countryside near the border with Germany with young people from all over the world. In the camp, she apparently seems to be a single Japanese and co-campers will ask her lots of things associated with Japan and vice versa. I'm looking forward to hearing her story about the camp.
