partnerships to tackle an expanding range of social issues.

EXCHANGE STUDENT GETS TASTE OF CALIFORNIA
Milpitas Post: August 30, 2007
During his five-week stay in California, 18-year-old exchange student Noriyasu
Sahara was treated to a buffet of American experiences. He enjoyed two baseball
games, In-N-Out burgers and, maybe most red, white and blue of all for the right
age group, “The Simpsons Movie.” While spending his last two weeks in Milpitas,
one thing stood out most for the Kyoto, Japan native.
“I like the sky,” said Sahara, who deejays and also aspires to be a history
teacher. “The California sky doesn’t have any clouds. Japan has many clouds.”
Along with 34 other Japanese exchange students, Sahara’s stay in California
began with two weeks in Los Angeles as part of a Lions Club student exchange
program. The students from Japan then enjoyed a week-long camping trip with
European exchange students, before landing in Northern California for the final
two weeks of their trip.
Sahara’s host parents in Milpitas, Marie Pham and Jose Leon, had just
finished housing one of the program’s European students, but jumped at the
chance to host again. “(The students) feel like part of the family,” Pham said.
“It’s a privilege to share the American experience with them.”
Sahara left for home Saturday, but the exchange experience has left its mark
on the Pham-Leon family. Inspired by their visitors, Pham’s daughter, Sabrina,
wants to visit Belgium, and her son, Brian, wants to see Japan. For more
information on becoming a host family or participating in the student exchange
program, contact Ray Maglalang at 262-8425.
