Pre-Departure Orientation Toronto 2012

This weekend is the pre-departure orientation for new JETs leaving from Toronto.

I remember vividly my own pre-departure orientation back in 2002, and how much fun I had. It’s crazy that 10 years have passed since I was a newbie.

As is the tradition, a pub night was held today after the first day of orientation so that new JETs, alumni, as well as Japanese people can mingle and chat.

Met a lot of cool new JETs tonight. Got to share some of my stories from my time as a JET with the new JETs, and I can’t wait to hear their stories once they come back in a few years.
