A summer well spent!

Japan always fascinated me! This summer, I wanted to do something different from my usual summer holiday which I would spend chilling by the beach. So I decided to save up and come to Fukuoka to chill by the beach here :lächeln:
Of course I didn’t just waste my time at the beach but also studied a lot. The summer intensive course that Meiji offers allowed for a fantastic balance between relaxing in the Fukuoka summer heat with a bottle of Pocari sweat (yes, that’s a drink here and it’s surprisingly good) and studying hard to improve your Japanese. My teachers were awesome! One of them even invited me to a BBQ party. What better way to practice Japanese than with locals, aye?
Apart from my teachers, I also got in touch with a lot of other students from a long list of different countries, cities, age groups, educational backgrounds etc. At first I was a bit confused to see 18-year-olds study alongside 25 or even 35 year-olds. But it’s the best thing! I am still in school, indecisive about what to study once I graduate, so talking to all these people about their studies/education/jobs was a huge plus for me!
Thanks Meiji for everything! Japan? I will be back!
