Hi,

When living in a foreign country, you have to adapt to a new environment, various cultures and different social codes.

How did you manage to adjust to Japan?

How long does it take to feel at home? Would you say it is an easy process?

According to you, what is key for a successful integration process in Japan?

Thank you in advance for sharing your experience!
