She loves Japan, and has spent 5 years learning the language. She's pretty good at it too.

Here's a bit of advice she has too, from an old IM conversation with her, when we were talking about the pervertedness of Japanese culture:

i know about some of the stuff in japan
one of my japanese teachers told this girl who was gonna study abroad to either wear pants or long skirts
there are perverted guys that get away with touching girls on the subway/train
then theres the gangs



So, not meant to scare you but doesn't hurt to be prepared, eh? Good luck!


I've been warned about the close quarters on mass transit, especially the subways. Wearing long pants won't really be a problem, as that's what I'll be wearing most of the time I'm there.

Thanks, birdy. If she is interested in signing up to do volunteer work, I can give you the information for the organisation I'm going through. There is an application process to go through, but unlike the International Red Cross, you don't have to have extensive medical background to be considered.
