Japanese students visiting Macon get a taste of the American South
Students from Macon’s “sister city” of Kurobe, Japan visited Bibb County to take in the sights and meet American students this week, though many of the students were also eager to try American foods and do normal things like grocery shopping or dressing up for Halloween. Macon’s cultural exchange program with Kurobe, a city of roughly 40,000 near the Sea of Japan, has been going on for almost two decades now, with Japanese students visiting the United States nine times. The student swap is an extension of Macon’s sister-city relationship with Kurobe City, which began in 1977 and promotes a cultural exchange between the cities tethered by the Japanese zipper manufacturer YKK. While the first student exchange in 2008 brought only nine students to Macon, this year’s cohort included 20 students along with four members of Kurobe’s board of education, who got to spend time in town and learn about the American — and Southern — experience. Students got glimpses of everything from local music productions to Georgia’s renowned breakfast eatery, Waffle House. To Japanese junior high student Reiji Tanaka, everything in Macon is bigger. He said he also noticed that people felt more comfortable being themselves, whereas in Japan
