Hey yall! So I'm not applying just yet as I'm still in college. However, there are a few places I've been considering to put for my placement requests (I know they aren't definite but still wanna hear thoughts) was wondering what people think of them and if anyone has personally been sent there.
First is shimane prefecture, more specifically, matsue. To be completely honest my reasoning for this one is a little silly as it's just the location of a game i played and i grew to like the representation of it.
Next is aomori. Ideally aomori city but anyplace there would do. Chose this because I really enjoy cold weather and snow and I heard there's a lot of snow there.
Finally, I'm not even sure if they do the program here but kusatsu. I saw some imagery of this place and I instantly fell in love with it. Additionally like aomori, I enjoy snow and I've seen this place covered in it.
Another place I was considering was beppu.
Again, I know these placement requests are not definite but these are just where I would ideally like to go.
Would love to hear thoughts, as well as recommendations for other places. Additionally I would LOVE to hear some stories of where any current or former JETs got sent and what the locations were like. I'd like to be in a rural area that still has some city traits.
Have a good one! 🙂
