Life in the land far away from Japan was a valuableexperience for me. There are three unforgettable experiences.The first was data gathering.

The subjects consisted of undergraduate students, graduatestudents, and high school students in the citizen’s course. What impressed me was thatthey had a deep interest in Japan. I also realized that I didn’t have enough knowledge ofJapan to satisfy the students.
