The Sausalito-Sakaide Sister Cities Program is a once-in-a-lifetime experience and opportunity to promote international friendship, understanding, and cooperation between the citizens of Sausalito, California, and Sakaide, Japan. Through homestays and cultural exchange activities, our program seeks to build bridges of friendship between our two communities to promote world peace at the local level.

Twelve lucky Marin County students will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the rich traditions and customs of Japan through a homestay experience with a local family in Sakaide and engage with a diverse range of activities prepared by the City of Sakaide.
