This cat is hilarious! You will see ...
   

 

2 years with Antonio & Junko and
other great students were the greatest
memory in Canada. You made me
feel "really at home" during my stay
in Canada. I will not forget the taste of
the food and everyday life here. I will
miss Canada, Vancouver and you.

Thank you very much. Your great
caring and concerns made me grow
up more. I hope you are always happy.
See ya soon! I love you :-) I will call you!

I had a great time. Thank you for your
kindness. Much advice from you was
especially beneficial to me. I was able to learn many things from you, and those six
months were a good experience. I hope
that I will see you again after my trip.

My favorite food - Antonio's tomato sauce
pasta, miso soup w/noodle, salad w/miso dressing, poteto okonomiyaki,
couscous and charmen

- Sumiko

Thank you very much! I am glad to
meet you, stay at your house and spend
such a wonderful time. I learned a lot of
things here - not only English
but also many other things.

I will never forget you, so
please don't forget the ambitious
(prodigal?) samurai was here!!

P.S. I will come back to get
married with your cat BonBon

Thank you very much for everything. I
had only stayed for 1 month, but here was
most comfortable house in Vancouver.
If I come back to Vancouver I will stay in
Antonio and Junko's house again...
and then I will remember Antonio's joke
"2 hundred and twenty cups a day..."

I have to apologize to you, actually I fed
some rice to the cats twice ;-)

I'm really glad to see you guys!!
Even though I had always been out,
whenever I was here. I could feel
so comfortable. I think this is because
of Junko and Antonio's kindness
... and great dinner!! I hope I'll see you
guys someday in Japan or Canada.

If you guys get a chance to come to my hometown, please let me know. I'll take
you guys wherever you want!! Thank you
for everything!! I'm so happy to be here
at my last day of Vancouver

- Mamoru

Thank you very much for everything!
I really enjoyed staying here, especially the basement :-) and of course enjoyed
having communication with you guyz. I
made a good choice to switch from living
in an apartment to staying here.

I wanted to stay longer ... I will go back
to Japan. It was a hard decision for me,
so I'll come back and stay here again!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH! Please
keep in touch with me. See you.
