I’m getting ready to move to Japan around April, working as an ALT. I’m moving from the US, and I know the first month, or first couple months can be a struggle. Cause you’re basically uprooting your life and moving to the other side of the world alone lol. I’m ready to face some challenges, but I’m trying to be optimistic and prepare as much as I can. My parents also immigrated to a new country when they were around my age, and they gave me advice.
But I’m wondering if some of the people that moved to Japan can share what they did to help cope or adjust? Like what helped you get through some of those struggles at the beginning? Or anything you would’ve done differently?
Thank you!
