I met with Yuma Moriya for the first time at Starbucks. On our first meeting, I introduced myself and learned a little more about Yuma. He told me he is from Osaka in Japan. He is in Group 3 classes at CIES and is hoping to graduate school in sports management. Yuma was interested in improving his listening and conversational skills. I asked him about how it was living in Japan and told him I have always been fascinated by Japanese culture.

Since we were at Starbucks, Yuma had gotten a pumpkin spice latte for the first time and we talked about how it was very sweet and had an interesting taste. He said he loved coffee and drinks around 3-4 cups a day. I prefer tea and drink very little caffeine, which he found interesting as Cubans are known for their strong espressos. I told him how my other family members are caffeine addicts and I just never developed the habit. We spoke of our Friday night plans and we were both were planning to enjoy Happy Hour after the session.
