Assignment #26- Where Children Eat and Sleep

Hey ya'll, this is my post on where children eat and sleep in my made up country! 
My country--which has yet to be named--is located in the pacific ocean (in between Japan and North America). It is a developed country that was created by an earthquake and volcano that caused a landmass. My country is best known for it's fashion, it's liberal and environmental attitude, it's wide range of tea and amazing beaches. Most of the people living in my country hail from Canada, the United States (particularly Hawaii), Japan, Indonesia (particularly Bali) and parts of Australia.

The Kaio family from my country is a family of two parents and three kids. They spend about $250 a week on food. 

The mother of the family, Fiona moved to my country from Canada to go to University. She is a surgeon and her hobbies include flower arranging, surfing and traveling on family vacations. Her favourite foods are sushi and cheesecake. 

The father of the family, Saku is originally from Japan. He works as a chef and enjoys playing tennis and studying astronomy in his free time. His favourite meals include Kare Raisu (japanese curry rice), Miso soup and Grapefruit dessert.

Their oldest child is 16 and his name is Aaron because it is both a common Japanese and American name. when Aaron grows up he wants to be an artist. His hobbies are photography, camping and sculpting. His favourite dishes include Balinese skewers, potatoes and bagels. 

Their daughter, Naomi is 14 and when she grows up she wants to be an writer. She is very interested in anime, cosplay, archery, origami and playing the harp. She often eats Godoh (fried Banana dish), pasta and pancakes.

Their younger son is Naomi's twin brother, Uke, who they decided to give a traditional Japanese name. He wants to be a fashion designer when her grows up, since my country is a very well known for its mixture of modern North America/European and Japanese street style fashions. Uke also enjoys the art of feng shui and does competitive Kendo (sword fighting type martial art). His favourite foods are stir fry, pineapple and ice cream.

The Kaio's live in a comfortable sized house near the beach where they enjoy surfing, swimming and playing beach volleyball. The house has four bedrooms and basic household necessities.
