Thank you very much for the hospitality you extended to us during our recent visit to
Port Angeles. Thanks to your thoughtful support, we were able to enjoy Port Angeles very
much. The meeting I had with you was very enjoyable and rewarding, and I was moved by
your ideas and compassion.
Our students were deeply moved by your tremendous hospitality. They are now very
positive about communicating in English. They are motivated not only to learn English but
also to be kind to other people as they were given by their host families. The five-day
experience they had in your city has broadened their horizons and led them to become
internationally -minded people.
After experiencing your generous hospitality, I realized how hard you worked to
educate young people so that they can play active roles in the international society in the
future. You taught us what real hospitality is. I'm sure all the students who have joined this
project feel the same and will try to improve themselves. The bond between our two cities is
truly supported by your good intentions. I hope that Port Angeles and Mutsu will
commemorate our next anniversary. Again I really appreciate your hospitality. We would like
to show you our own when you come and visit us in Mutsu.
Sincerely,
Hiroyuki Imai
Principal of Tanabu Senior High School
