Bro, number 4 about the visa stress is way too accurate. I spent more time at immigration offices than at cafes smh

Omg the isolation part hit me hard. I thought I’d make friends instantly but it’s weirdly hard to connect on a deeper level

I moved to Japan for a year and honestly, the honeymoon phase wore off fast. Loneliness hit me harder than I expected lol
