Traditional Wedding
Our hotel have wedding ceremonies and receptions every weekend. One day, the couple had a Japanese traditional wedding at a temple and came to the hotel for their reception. They wore formal and special Kimono for wedding. When the couple arrived at the hotel lobby, people who are from Russia were at the lobby to get ready for going out. It was a rare opportunity for Russian people to see Japanese traditional wedding style. Russian people were excited and happy to experience Japanese culture. I was also glad to see intercultural experiences at the hotel. It is one of my goals to provide understandings of Japanese culture to foreigners through hotel visits.

Keiko- that sounds like a really cool experience- getting to watch cultural interactions like that! What a positive goal- trying to provide an understanding of culture through hotel visits- it sounds like this internship is right along the lines with what you want to do!
