Best Way to have your questions about Japan answered is to read blogs by people who have been there! Unfortunately there aren't many on this site, For all the returnees who blogged please add your links here.

Also for people who are going to japan and planning on blogging also put your links here!

Oooh! Agreed, thanks to you I was inspired to blog.

Can't promise my consistency, but I can guarantee some good stories?
Just check in every few days.

I thought i'd put some other blogs here, they aren't aiiu students but they still have the same experience. Kirstie Swinn's blog {returnee from last year} for some reason it;s not working anymore >.<.

http://beibaby.blogspot.com/2006/09/day-in-life-of-japanese-exchange.html <- that would be my favourite blog, though i haven't really looked at any others. You have to go back to June 06 or so for any japan posts but you can always click the tags!
