My son also will be leaving for Japan in a little over 2 weeks. He called his host family after receiving his placement info., and has now spoken with them several times. I’ve never seen him quite as happy and excited as he was when he got off the phone! If you can speak enough Japanese to pull it off (or know if your host family knows any English), you might find it very reassuring to speak with your host family so you “know” them a bit before you go.
