Last blog.

Hi, Kate here!

Today is my last day at JPNavi, so it will be my last blog as well. I'm going back home next week, and I have a lot of packing and cleaning to do.
I enjoyed being here at JPNavi; even though I only worked for a little bit, everyone was really nice to me, and took care of me. I had a lot of fun being together with everyone, eating and talking and, of course, working here was a really nice experience. I am very happy to have met such nice people, and I hope they will keep well while I'm gone!

Being in Japan was really fun. I cam here last year in the end of August, and I have no idea where the 10 months have disappeared. I fell in love with karaoke, making a point of regularly going to sing my heart out; I've learned to discover new dishes by combining spices that I've never used before and of course I practiced kyudo, which became an important part of my life.
I really wish I didn't have to go back home, and could stay here another year and study at Aichi Shukutoku University. The teachers were always nice and helpful, making every lesson extremely fun and relaxed. The students were always interested in us foreigners, but I never felt more welcome.
The whole experience of studying abroad made me feel more open to the world, and accept a different thing without questioning it too much. I've had a really friendly environment where I lived, and I feel like I won't be able to live without everyone, but we'll keep in touch I hope!

Do come to Japan, and see how it is for yourself! You won't be disappointed! :)
