2000-2002 Nagasaki JET Alum

Konichiwa!! I’m happy, but not surprised, to find this community here on Reddit. If we know how to do anything, JET Programme participants know how to find good Japanese food and each other after participation. 😂 We are a community for life! ✊🏾🇯🇵☺️

Anyway, I just wanted to say hello. I was an ALT in a small town called Konagai (now annexed into Isahaya) in Nagasaki on the southern island of Kyushu. I was also the representative for the JETs in Nagasaki for CLAIR, so shout out to Nagasaki.

For all the current, new, or aspiring JET participants, enjoy the opportunity. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience that you will look back on and think, “Wow. I did that.”
