Just a little intro about myself. I am from Australia and have been living here in Japan for 4.5 years now. I have worked in a japanese office of an international company for 3.5 years and decided to quit the job and learn japanese fulltime.
I just happened to find this forum and realized that there are many people out there like me who want to come to japan or will actually come here in the short future.
This has just reminded me how difficult it was to settle in and adapt to japanese cultures and their way of doing things when I first arrived. Luckily, I have my husband to help me a bit (he is japanese) but I can really imagine for those who are coming here on your own with no friends/family, it can be hectic.
So, for those of you who want to have some advice, please feel free to post a reply to this. I will help as much as I can.
