The thing I enjoyed most about working at NC State University,

was all the wonderful people I met. It was my pleasure to be the first person 

our international group members met.  Each and every visitor arrived full of excitement for their visit. with us.  My correspondence with them started at least a year before their arrival date as I arranged for their H1B visas.

 By the time they arrived we had formed quite a bond. 

I will be sharing a few of these short stories about my favorite international visitors on Final Feature Friday.

1.  First up is Koichi, Japanese Post Doctoral fellow.

Koichi and his wife Mana  were a delight.  Both spoke excellent English...but for some reason they were intent on learning my Southern accent...not sure if they learned the accent but they surely master understanding it. Just a month short of the first year of his two year post doc,  I learned Mana was expecting their first child.  Of course needed an OB/GYN.  I gave them several names of practices. Happy to say she had a healthy pregnancy. Mana delivered a precious Baby boy. The proud parents wanted their son to have a name that was associated with his birth state. They loved Raleigh area and coastal North Carolina, in particular Kitty Hawk/Kill Devil Hills, NC. Which is where, on December 17, 1903,  Orville and Wilbur Wright had the first successful flight of powered controlled and sustained heavier than air...air craft. 

Koichi shared four names they were considering as the middle name of their son. (Sorry I cannot remember their son's first name).

Wake (the county where Raleigh is located) Orville, Wilbur or Wright.

They decided on Wake.  I often wondered how many times they proudly told their son about the significance of his middle name.
