Japan

I'm going to japan this summer and spending about a week with a host family in Iwateken (specificaly Kitakami). I was wondering what there is to do in Iwate as far as sightseeing, tourist attractions, and other attention drawing things.

Also does anyone have any tips about Iwate or Japan in general? Anything would be helpful. Including what to bring as omiage for my host family and some do's and don'ts.

Thank you.

Why are there so many young women interested in hostessing? I mean, what's so attractive about been treated like a slave? is it money, an unloving family?. Why would a modern woman want to degrade herself?. Doesn't make any sense to me..could anyone explain this to me? thanx in advance.

I've been accepted into a program to teach in Japan for a year. I am curious to know how realistic is it to find a Catholic Church in Japan? I am a devoted Catholic and while I really want to teach in Japan and immmerse myself in the culture, I can't see myself not being involved in church ministry for a year. Any info or advice would be appreciated.

Which do you think hurts more: rug burns or tatami burns?

(I don't know what made me think of this, but I know I haven't seen it asked before)

Often times, I see people asking questions about teaching English in Japan. I've noticed that a substantial amount of people want a teaching job in Japan. However, I always wonder how many English teachers Japan actually needs. Is this a high demand job or do people simply look at teaching as an easy way to get to Japan?
