On Monday evening Jack and I were able to eat dinner at the ISI house. Over a meal cooked by a Japanese resident, we got to know the current house manager, another ISI staff person, and four of the current resident students. We spent about three hours eating, walking, touring, and talking, and by the end of the evening we were very excited about our future. It's a good fit for us.
Also, Seattle is amazingly beautiful. Green. Mountains in most directions. A lake in the middle of a neighborhood. A densely wooded park with walking trails just down the street from our house. And there are fun friends and relatives who hospitably entertained us for our first 36 hours in the city. It bodes well.
We're currently in Riverside, CA, preparing to leave for VN. The curriculum we've been given is excellently written, which excites me.

The ISI house looks like a haven from the storms of life. I'm sure you'll make it so!
