1 year ago I moved to Japan to live with my husband, K, in his hometown of Osaka.
It has been the most amazing experience, meeting beautiful people, trying new foods, and adapting to a new culture and language.
After 1 year, I have learned so much, but there are still many things that I haven't gotten used to yet.
So I've put together a list of culture shocks that I experienced this year that had a large impact on me.
It's only been a short amount of time, but I hope you can either relate or find this list of things entertaining!
I'd love to hear your insights in the comments, and whether you've had any similar experiences, either in Japan, or experiencing culture shock somewhere else!
Watch this next:
I made a video about my Japan culture shock after only TWO MONTHS living here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCq2DQ71mNM&list=PLvQh0LCCqCc6mhSc7bR2T4kfH17tQf5B5
