Life at Keio University/Asian Australians in Japan?

I’m planning to go on an exchange to Keio University as an undergraduate exchange student. For those who've been to Keio, I’d love to hear about your experience! What program were you in? Did you join any clubs or circles, and how welcoming are they towards foreign exchange students?

I’m from Australia with a Chinese background and can speak fluent Japanese to a certain level, though definitely not at a native level. One thing I’m a bit concerned about is that people in Japan might assume I’m Japanese based on my appearance, and it would probably be confusing if I tell them I’m from Australia. Does anyone have any tips on how to navigate this and smoothly adapt to the cultural environment?

I’m really excited to make new friends in Japan and would appreciate any advice!
