Studying in a different country can be challenging but when the language is totally foreign, it can present huge difficulties.
Nica and Jerica are both from the Philippines but are studying in Japan. Nica moved there with her family when she was still in school, Jerica chose to go there as part of her university's foreign exchange programme. Japan for both of them was a childhood dream.
In this episode, they talk about the difference in culture compared to The Philippines and the difficulty they both experience making friends because of the language.
Nica has now adapted to life in Japan and speaks Japanese while Jerica is slowly finding her way. We hear about the loneliness you can experience if you can’t make a connection but also advice on how to navigate this.
They talk about looking after their mental and physical health health and why you should never be afraid to try things and make mistakes.
