お悩み原文Constantin さんI am the only international student in my lab (I am doing a PhD in Japan) and the other Japanese students never talk to me. I arrived a few months ago and they were supposed to introduce me to the city and the Japanese life, help me with administrative documents but they never did. I proposed them to do little activities on the we or just talk with me during breaks, but they always decline or cancel last minute. I even try to talk with them in Japanese (my Japanese is broken, I only started to learn one year ago). So my question is how to make friends with Japanese student as a french student ?AzelさんMy dreamlife is to come to Japan to live, but I'm 44 now, and I have so much business and stuff in Spain, so I can't leave soon. Maybe when I will be free to try to come to Japan I will be 50, maybe I will be so much old? I wanna try to start learning Japanese, because I love languages and I know that Japanese is the hardest one, and I will need almost 10 years. I'm a Spanish Philologist and I hear that in Japan, Spanish teachers are very demanded.BenefisさんShould I work as a farmer or coffee shop owner in Japan?Episode mentioned: Why is it difficult to make friends in Japan?https://open.spotify.com/episode/5qbvjhusIpIKsfLb8jUfue?si=cYZaMJbFTdKjqa4Qlo3AaA10 ways to make friends in Japanhttps://open.spotify.com/episode/3O2ppzwK0h0lv8GbKGu2MO?si=mKwP9zpLQZCHGQx-v7po-gSubmit your Onayami here!https://forms.gle/AVoWR9YdryU1GgfD7 📚Download transcript with/without Furigana (how to read Kanjis) and English translation of each episode of Podcast→⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join Patreon Membership⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📒Get my original Japanese cheatsheet "MOU WASURENAI" for FREE→⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Download the cheatsheet⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.sayasjapanese.com/cheatsheet 🏫Take private lessons at SAYAS→⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Visit SAYAS Japanese School’s website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠💜More from me⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠お悩み原文Constantin さんI am the only international student in my lab (I am doing a PhD in Japan) and the other Japanese students never talk to me.
