My 16 year old daughter will be staying with a host family in Fukuoka from late Nov - late Dec.
Would it be approporiate to give the family christmas decorations or such or just Aussie made gifts?
Also is it cheaper to buy a digital camera duty free in Aus, Singapore (she has a stopover there) or Japan?
Thanks
Therese

If you are going to choose from either Christmas decoration or Australian gift,i would recomend australian gift.
Maybe some Australian candies and cockies make host family very happy.
A card from your family would be nice also.

with the other two, that Aussie gifts would be better. I looked at cameras recently in Singapore, and the model I was interested in was not cheaper there at reputable shops. I'm pretty sure that it would be cheaper to buy the camera in Japan because the Aussie dollar is so strong and the yen is so weak.
