Right after I returned to Arizona. I started starching for flights to Japan for next summer. This is how much I miss Japan!!!
I started my trip about a week earlier than the group. I arrived in Tokyo first and travel to Mt. Fuji, Nagoya, Kyoto, Osaka, Kobe, Himeji and Hiroshima. I accomplished so much in those 18 days both professionally and personally.
Personally, it was my first backpack trip traveling with friends. I spent about two days on Mt. Fuji and hiked to the top of the crater. The weather was freezing, foggy and rained a lot. I didn't get a chance to see the sunrise, but I overcame the bad weather and high attitude (12.389 feet). I put in lots of perseverance and dedication. The achievement with friends was more than anything else.
During my trip, I received lots of help from KGU faculty, Osaka University faculty, Japanese friends, and strangers. I think I talked to the most strangers in my life during this trip to ask for direction. All of them were willing to help out even though they didn't speak English. I met six people that were helped and walked with me to find the place I wanted to go. I also met up my friends that I knew since my undergraduate career and I had a great time catching up with them in Japan after graduating from U of A.
The hospitality from KGU, OU, friends, and strangers gave us the best time in Japan. I felt very respected, friendly, and happy. Everyone was super nice and sweet. They made my time in Japan warmhearted and wonderful! Yoshie (my pen pal), took me to an awesome hair salon and we went bakery shopping. Without her guidance my experience in Japan wouldn't have been the same.
Professionally, I enjoyed all the lectures we had at KGU. I really enjoyed the time in Kampo pharmacy! I like Kakkonto (葛根湯). I would like to learn more information on herbal medicine in the future. It was my pleasure to visit clinical pharmacy in Kobe City Hospital and the pharmacists there were very friendly and tried their best to answer our questions.
I am glad I decided to join the Japan trip! Traveling to Japan in the summer of 2016 was truly a life changing experience! My daily schedule in Japan was very packed, yet very meaningful. I enjoyed every second in Japan and did not waste anytime!
