Hello, I'm new to this forum. Seems like a nice place though!
I created another tread about finding a place to live in Tokyo, but I did'nt really introduce myself. Anyways, I'm a 22 years old guy from Sweden. I've almost studied 3 years at university-level and in September im going to Japan (Tokyo) for an exchange year at Waseda U.
Oh, and I've lived in Saitama (Kita-Koshigaya) for four months back in 2005 whilst studying some japanese. I feel really rusty now though, but I hope to brush that up ASAP and also try hard to learn alot of japanese in the coming year.
Anyways I just wanted to share my happiness really quick, have fun all travelers!
