my visa got approved yesterday and i have to leave to japan in two weeks! sorta excited, sorta freaking out. alot of things going through my head. i’ve dreamt of this moment for about 10years now and its happening. a lot of things going through my head such as:
-
i haven’t found an apartment yet, do you guys suggest locking one in prior to arriving or staying at a hotel a few days and going to see apartments in person? i’ve been considering areas such as Setagaya , Takadanobaba , ebisu or meguro. my daily commute will be to Shinjuku. I want an area where theres nice coffee shops, quiet-ish, nice area to walk in the mornings. what do you guys suggest?
-
I already bought most of my “necessities” that arent “easily” accessible in Japan according to reddit such as deodorant, strong toothpaste, 500mg acetaminophen. is there anything else you guys suggest?
-
how do you guys cope with homesick feeling? im super close to family so i know it will definitely miss them. what do you guys do to avoid feeling super homesick?
any extra tips to make my move easier would be super appreciated!
I appreciate ya’ll in advance. !
