I am so glad you are here! Although you are right in saying that certain things will be a challenge, I hope you ask for help when you need it. It's going to be a great two weeks!

Hi Yuya,
I think it is normal to feel anxious when you encounter a totally new experience. I am glad you were able to relax somewhat after arriving here and spending your first night. In two weeks, I think you will feel quite comfortable here and maybe not ready to go back to Japan!
