Katie and Ryne
For those of you who may not know how or why we ended up halfway across the world, Katie is a recent college grad from UW-Madison who majored in Japanese, and Ryne is her ever-faithful husband and sidekick. After graduation, Katie got a position as an Assistant Language Teacher in the JET program, and is now helping to teach the youth of Japan how to speak, write, and read English. Ryne spends the majority of his time smiling and nodding when people try talking to him, and watching Japanese variety shows.
