The People

Ok so first of all, I figured everyone might like to know who is on the trip with me and how the other teams are divided before I update again.

There are 17 people on the team, 10 men, 7 women. The men are Greg Triplett, Beau Wirick, Gen Nakamura, Kris Fortin, Steve Crockett, Bo Cox, Russell Champoux, Joseph Benson, David Burkett, and me. The women are Megan Mumey, Cherie Fontanilla, Sarah Kelly, Christina Carey, Heather Brainerd, Maria Bo, and Kristin Oketani. Greg and Megan are the directors of the trip, and they shift which team they go to school with everyday.

Like I said before, my team consists of Beau, Heather, Bo, Kristin, and me. We are team 3, and Beau and Heather are the team leaders. Our team goes to Todai (Tokyo University) and Toyo University.
Team 1 consists of Gen, Christina, Kris, Cherie, and Russell, with Gen and Christina as the team leaders. They go to Waseda and Gakshuin Universities.
And team 2 consists of Steve, Sarah, Maria, Joe, and David, with Steve and Sarah as the team leaders. They go to Sophia and Rikyo Universities.

We are all living the same apartment complex withing a couple doors of each other, but on different floors. The rooms we have are 104, 105, 204, 303, and 305. As you may have guessed, the first number in the hundred signifies what floor the room is on, and the last two numbers are the room numbers.

David, Russell, Joe and I live in 104.
Greg, Beau, Gen, and Kris live in 105.
Steve and Bo live in 204, and that room is also our meeting room, so one of the bedrooms is left empty so we can all gather in there for group meetings, which is why only 2 people live there.
Heather, Christina, Kristin, and Maria live in 303.
Megan, Cherie, and Sarah live in 305.

I will try to write up a short bit of info about everyone on the trip sometime soon, but until then you can go to genintokyo.blogspot.com to read a little about everyone and to get updates from Gen if you would like hear things from a different team's viewpoint.
