I’ve lived in Japan for 16~ years and here is my advice… I haven’t heard an original complaint about Japan from a foreigner since my first year here. So focus on your life and time in Japan and do your best to to make your own experience.

@DivaLaci I found a the carrots I chopped up for the reindeer in the garbage the next morning. I insisted I cut up a whole bag because there are so many reindeer. They could have used them for Christmas dinner, I wouldn’t have noticed.

The genkan is almost finished! It will feel good to have some part of the house finished! Just need to attach the mirror to the wall (it’s VERY heavy.) Then hang a couple of paintings. Still waiting for some furniture and appliances on the 26th.
