[Quiet Man Cometh]

Might be one of those exchange programs where you stay with a local family. I know there are a few school exchange programs. My college had one with a girls school in Japan that was geared toward basic study in Japanese culture/history/language/etc as well as for people learning to teach English.

I'm hoping to save up some money to visit Japan while my friend is still there so I have a free place to stay :)
