introduction

Konichiwa
My name is Laura ,
I am 15 years old and from the Netherlands,
I am going to japan as an exchange student for a hole year (yhea...take your time ....)
You may ask yourself  why the blog title is' a japanese live of a panda' instead of laura in japan or something like that...well the main reason was that I wanted something different I guess.. also some people told me I look like a panda ... ya ...dunno why they say that though haha ^^

why Japan?
It all started with anime and manga (Japanese comics) after that I felt in love with the hole culture (shrines ,landscape ect)
A friend of my sister went to Japan a few years ago and i thought why shouldn't i go too ?
so my mother and I went to a few exchange organizations and ended up with AFS.
Its a exchange organization that offers exchange all around the world(pretty awesome huh ?) .

host family :
I am going to live with my host mom and dad , also I am going to have 2 little brothers ( 8 and 6 years)
and my home town will be Chiba city( 40km away from Tokyo)

I hope you will follow my adventure sayonaraa  <3
