Greetings from the netherlands

[Ran]

hello everybody!

I have been browsing the board for about 4 years now an finally decided to create this account.

I am a dutch boy and am 18 years old.
I have had an interest in Japan since I was pretty young.
I have lived in japan for a year (2006) as an exchange student, and am back in the netherlands for 2 months now.

As this experience has definitely changed my lfe I think it will be interesting to hear other peoples stories. and if people are interested I might put my story online.

Pleased to meet you all.

I went to japan with a highschool program of YFU.
My school was in Hiroshima (hiroshima daigaku fuzoku kotogakkou a.k.a. hirodai fuzoku) and lived in hatsukaichi which is about 25 mins. from hiroshima station.

I studied al the mandatory subjects at a highschool.

but I will ost more about it in a thread later.

@ Hiroto=Love

I went with YFU but it seems like there are a lot of different organisations (if that's what your looking for) with exchange programs to japan.
Because of my number of posts I can't post a link to their website, but I think your can figure out their webaddress by yourself

You'll probably find something you like if you search around

If anyone has questions about being an exchange student, or about anything, please ask.

Furthermore, I want to thank all of you for your kind replies.
