Glossary of terms

This has been introduced to avoid confusion when referring to Japanese words and popular culture
Onsen – a hot mineral spring used for bathing
Mukade – giant centipedes that bite
Horse sashimi – raw horse (they also eat raw whale and dolphin)
Ian Thorpe – Australian swimmer and Olympic gold medallist known for his large flipper feet

NOTE: It is not acceptable to place images of the students on the Internet like Facebook. I was able to take photos but I am not allowed to share them so my images of Yufuin are mostly of the scenery*.

*Also I am sorry Henri but there are no onsen pics either. You will just have to come visit – and bring your own food because you will starve.
