Nao Miyahara

 My name is Nao Miyahara. I’m from Osaka, Japan. I’m 19 years old and live in Mornington with the Gutschlag family. I feel Dunedin is incredibly peaceful compared with other foreign countries, and the people who live in Dunedin are so kind. My favorite subject in high school was world history. This is because the history of France and German is extremely interesting to me. I am doing this course because I will study at university from the end of October. So, I have to prepare for more academic things here. I like watching movies and dramas. Especially, I like Korean dramas. The most exciting movie was Goblin. This is a love story, so I recommend it. On the other hand, I dislike reading books and running. Therefore, my least favorite class was the winter marathon because I don’t have enough strength. The reason why I don’t like reading books is that it takes a lot of time to finish reading, and it needs long concentration. The good thing about me is that I’m positive and optimistic, and the bad thing is that I’m indecisive. My goals are to improve my speaking skill and to get to know my host mother. My host mother likes cooking and baking, and I like making sweets too. so, I would like to cook something with her, and I want her to teach me how to make kiwi food because I would like to make kiwi food for my family after going back to Japan.

    Thanks for introducing yourself. Do you have a bird or does your homestay family have one? What is its name?
    I enjoy reading about European history too. I am fascinated in the Byzantine Empiire, which lasted over 1000 years and was centred in Constantinople (which is now called Instanbul). I also like reading about the Medieval, Rennaissance and Reformation periods. Then as for English history, I am interested in the Victorian era and its art, architecture, literature, theology and ideas.
    What eras of French & German history appeal to you?
    David :-)

Volunteering - Paz

I think that volunteering can enrich peoples live in different ways. Volunteering is a very good way for help people with real and biggest problem such as, lack of basic necessities, like food, health, education or a roof.  So, volunteering, makes you see you life in a different way, you realize that your problem are not as big as you thought it and you start to live a more relax and happy life. You face yours problems with a different attitude.  And at the same time you are helping people that really need it, so is a win - win.  Also, it may increase your self - confident and get out of your confort zone. In this way, I think people that do volunteering star to appreciate more theirs live and little things or actions that happens in it.  However, I think that volunteering is not for everyone.. I would like to do a volunteering some day.. I think would like to do something that involves animals life or health care.

  I think the world in 10 years time will have more AI and more professions that can work in place of humans.I expect that systems such as facial recognition will become more advanced, and people will be able to shop using facial recognition without wallets.  However, as this facial recognition system develops, there are problems of who will manage it and whether privacy will be properly protected.On the positive side, it makes it easier to prevent crime and find missing persons. Additionally, as I mentioned earlier, lives will be made more convenient.Therefore, it is impossible for me to say whether it will get better or worse.

 I believe the world will improve more and more because of the development of technology, whereas the environment will be getting worth. I think AI will improve more and more. For example, Al will be able to express their emotion in next revolution. I think the world will be better for human, but other animals and plants will receive a bad influence from next revolution. we have to keep my mind that our action effect on the environment.
