Hello! I am a computer engineering from Greece and i am thinking of moving to Japan.My university in Greece is in an island away from my home, and today i just got sick.Thank god i have friends here and people that know me and my family and even though i don't need their help it makes me feel a lot more secure.I was thinking if i was in the same situation in Japan being a 20 hour flight away from home i would feel terrified.I know rhe health care is excellent but i cant help but feel fear ,like ,will i have friends or a girl to talk to? To help me? Will i be able to tell my boss i am sick and can't work today (how will he react ) ,will it be culturally acceptable? Will i have anyone close to me that fking cares?Anyway i am not sure if any European/American had the same experience or thoughts so i wrotte this here to ask how you overcame this feeling,thank you for reading.
