About this listen
Japan is full of fascinating differences, and today, we’re looking back at the first culture shock experiences we had when we first arrived! From learning Japan’s detailed approach to trash sorting to navigating life without late-night trains, every new discovery shaped our understanding of daily life here. We’ll also talk about professionalism in Japan, the realities of owning a car in Tokyo, and how visiting rural Japan felt like a refreshing change from the fast-paced city life. If you’ve ever wondered what adjusting to Japan is really like, tune in and join us! 🇯🇵
