How many times have you ever been to Japan?: 1
Q1. Why did you come to Japan?
I had been studying Japanese for 4 years at university in China, and I wanted to learn ‘real
Japanese’ in Japan.
Q2.What did you think of Japan before you came here?
Japanese TV drama, anime, and fashion magazine made me believe that there are many
cool, cute and stylish people in Japan.
I couldn’t understand that Japanese eat raw fish.
Q3.Did the impression change after you came here?
I think Japanese people are stylish, as I had thought of.
But I had to change my mind about eating raw fish. I realized how delicious it is as I tried it
for the first time. Even though I thought I could never eat raw fish, I LOVE Sushi now.
Q4.What do you think is the attraction of Japan?
Delicious food, cute clothes and clean environment.
Q5.What do you think is inconvenient to live in Japan?
It is difficult for me to take trains here. The train system is so complicated that I sometimes
have trouble changing in between lines. I am more used to it now, but still once I took the
wrong train and couldn’t reach my destination.
Q6. What would you recommend for foreigners who are visiting Japan?
I would recommend 100 Yen Shops. They sell high quality items at a low price.
Also, I definitely recommend Japanese food. My favorites are Sushi, macca green tea
desserts, and cooking oil. I prefer Japanese cooking oil because it is healthy and less
greasy than Chinese one.
