On student exchange in Japan you will go to baseball games, sing at karaoke clubs and eat mouthwatering food. Japan embraces futuristic technology, pop culture and bold fashion, yet it is rooted in tradition.
A vibrant island nation
Japan is a nation of contrasts. The bright lights, ultra-modern culture and fast pace of Tokyo have no comparison on Earth, but neither does the peace and serenity of the Japanese countryside. Nowhere else in the world do people embrace cutting-edge technology, popular culture and new fashions so eagerly. At the same time, few places on Earth still observe traditions that are centuries old.
Fun and friendly people
Japanese people are known for being polite, but they are also fun, friendly and warm people. During your high school exchange in Japan you will make new friends and experience Japanese culture to its fullest.
