Hello, my name is Marissa Castellano. I’m from the United States, and my hometown is Valdosta, Georgia, a place that stays green even in winter and is full of beautiful azaleas in spring and summer.

My hobbies include reading, playing games, gardening, and crochet. I studied Literature and Education at university, and I really enjoy learning as well as teaching.

I came to Japan because I wanted to experience something new, and also because Japan is such a beautiful country. I’m excited to be here and to share many wonderful experiences together!
