I’ll try to keep this short
I’ve studied Japanese for a while and I’m probably around N4 level, maybe between N4 and N3. I studied last fall in Tokyo and loved it, and I got a lot of help from the exchange department to get in touch with other students (Japanese and foreign) so I quickly made friends.
However, while I really wanted to study for a year in Japan, but now given the chance to study in Kyoto, I’m hesitant. I’m a party girl, I’m scared of the hostility that I’ve heard some foreigners are faces with in Kyoto specifically, I’m scared of being entirely independent and making no friends for an entire year.
But I long for Japan, speaking Japanese, the student life there, everything. I’m just scared of how well I’d integrate in Kyoto.
Advice/thoughts?
