Welcome reception


Dear friends:

How exciting and interesting this experience has been! We are learning and enjoying a lot. All scholarship awardees have been treated as kings and queens. Japanese people are so kind, sweet, helpful. They do all their best to make us feel at home. There are no words to express our gratitude.
The WorldCALL Committee organized a welcome reception to all attendees and look what happened. It was a wonderful cultural experience!


All scholars were invited to wear the traditional kimono and were called one by one in front of the reception attendees, country by country. In this picture you see from left to right: Evelyn (Venezuela), Erika (Brazil), Nelba (Argentina), Jennifer (Argentina), Hala (Sudan) and Susan (Iran).
