Ups and Downs
Living in Japan has been one of the best experiences of my life. However, it hasnt't been all sunshine and rainbows. I have a huge respect for the culture but there are aspects I will never understand.
Like why isn't there central heating?? JEZUS! It's cold af here!! HELP ME!!! LOL
I guess I'll make a list of the top 10 or 20 reasons I like and dislike Japan.
Reasons why I dislike Japan:
1.) No diversity
Differences are not really accepted
2.) No feminism
3.) Rape and sexual assault is not handled very well
4.) If you live outside of main cities you don't really have access to foreign companies and there aren't many people who will speak English.
5.) Bullying is horrible because of the culture. They want you to figure everything out by yourself.
6.) Passive aggressiveness\ Not direct
7.) No central heating or insulation T~T
8.) Recycling is a pain in the ass.
9.) You have to take your shoes off in some public spaces.
10.) If you work as an ALT people won't really talk to you or info you about important events, changes in your schedule or anything LOL.
11.) OVERWORK
Reasons why I love Japan:
1.) It's SAFE!
2.) It's clean :D
3.) Public transportation is always on time! ( At least when you go to the city or take a train in the inaka)
4.) Japan is small and close to other countries so it's easy and cheaper to go to different places.
5.) It's so easy to eat healthier and make healthier decisions.
6.) I love my bathroom because it's actually a BATHroom.
7.) Toilets are separate.
8.) People are nice
9.) Cost of Living is affordable.
10.) Pay as an ALT is awesome :D
11.) Shipping is cheap :D (within japan)
12.) Convenience
13.) Kotatsu
14.) Yummy cheap food
15.) Anime
16.) Self-sufficient
17.) Collective Culture ( The community before oneself)
18.) A lot enrichment programs at low cost or free. (Language study, food making, music)
19.) Nature <3
20.) Oshare people (fashionable people)
21.) Universal Health care (Or at least something close to it)
