Here’s life lately! I’ve been having such a rewarding experience so far. I’ve been to so many new places and learned so much!

Everyday I learn a new word from my Japanese dorm friends and going out to fun places with other international students. The culture here while is strict it is so rewarding, it made think deeply about my culture and our behaviors.

As of now I’ve only met amazing, kind, understanding people who are always willing to lend a hand for any trouble I encounter.

They are always willing to teach me Japanese so I can be more “neitibu” (local) and teach me their customs like “itadakimasu.” Every place I’ve visited has left me in awe and I’m just having such a great time learning and exploring in Japan!
