Always make Japanese local friends! Especially Japanese university students! They are so kind and fun and they’ll show you so many aspects of Japan’s culture.

In general, I think the KCP program is really great and I’m very glad I decided to do it. It was a lot of work, but I learned a lot, met many interesting people from all over the world, and got to have a very different experience of Japan than the normal tourist.
