Japan · Vietnam passports · started 2015–2019
Considered leavingIts good only if you were a local, otherwise, consider choosing something from UK or US instead.
Before they found their people
It took longer than a year
What surprised them
Japanese people are really not that nice, honestly. They're nice with their people but act mostly based on prejudice to foreigner. Another thing was how I imagined the life there will be like from anime. Turned out it just another grind after another because the expense there
Wished they'd known
There would be no love life, no youth adventure, no international friendship or true friendship.
Choose it again?
Honestly, maybe i would still choose it because how harsh the reality was when i enrolled. You know, to not daydream about that country ever again
Why they nearly left
I mean, Vietnamese people, not just student were never treated well because of the infamous activities in Japan. We litter, cause noise and steal property everywhere we went and always among the highest criminal list for foreigners so yeah, that was to be expected. People looked at me like i was already stealing something from them and treat me with not an ounce of respect i expect from normal Japanese social standard.
Across every review here, expected to already be local predicts whether someone belonged. Treated as foreign doesn't. Why that is
