Japan Vlog 14 - Exchange Student Issues

WYS and CIEE are not always the best in getting their stuff together... they had quite a few disagreements mainly due to cultural differences. Im glad I can stay and that the mess of "family-less-ness" is over!!

@dubworldo ...but I'm not asian. I'm caucasian.

@AzumiRM I don't understand your comment. How do I "not understand culture"? I went to Japan to leave my comfort zone and improve my linguistic and cultural awareness. I went there for high school not Uni, so I dressed in a uniform. And why would anyone ever want to look "regular"?

so.. would you suggest doing an exchange to japan? I want to go but i can't tell if there have been more positive reviews than negative.

i feel like if you're an asian in the states and then you go to japan for an exchange program it would be easier. just b/c most of us have been to asia before and knows a little about the "overall" idea and culture.
