Experienced Host waiting for you!
Overview
Our comfortable and relaxed home is a two-story home with big back yard and garden. I love flowers and animals. You will see flowers in our front and back yard, and hear bird-chirping all year long. We have been renting out one of our rooms for over ten years. (We are new to homestay.com.) We have experienced as a host-family to many foreign students. We enjoy meeting new people. We hosted over one hundred people. We wish you relax and enjoy your stay at our home, and we respect your privacy. See you soon! = Family Members = Mike (He was born and raised in SD. He is a Computer Engineer.) Kasumi (I am Japanese. I have lived in California for 30 years. I can speak Japanese and English.) We are a married couple. Mike cannot understand the Japanese language, so we speak English at home. We don't smoke and drink. We love to travel. We have been to Japan, Costa Rica, Canada, Bora Bora, Rangiroa, Iceland, Australia, Belize, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Botswana, and more. Dogs: Leon (Jack Russell Terrier), Ray (Mini-Pin and Toy Manchester Terrier Mix), and Pow (Chihuahua).
