Believe me, I am way past the idea of thinking that visting a foreign country would in any way make me "fit in". To me, that is childish to think of such a thing. I used to have that kind of thinking process when I was younger, however, with me being in my mid 20's now, and gathering as much information on Japan's past history as well as present on how they respect us or other countries, both good and bad. I can honestly say, that just visiting the country or any country would be a good experience for me, as well as a good culture shock. (Which I don't mind at all.)
