Mariko is a very optimistic, generous, warm and diligent movement person. She always careful contemplation of your needed, and good at listening to your cultural exchanges. Mariko even cook dinner treat me once, then I discovered that she was good at cooking.
A lake park near Mariko's home, is a good place for sports and leisure, enthusiastic local residents also very kind to give this new comer interaction in the park.
I am very lucky that able to listen Mariko playing two songs, after she finish class teaching that time, which I feel the professional of great momentum of Mariko.

If she doesn't mind, I next time to west LA, certainly come back to her house.
