4 Things in Japan that Get Expats Crazy
1 – Miscommunication
Even with Japanese language skills the rich cultural background of Japan can create a huge gap in communication.
2 – Never feeling like you belong
While you may live comfortably and feel adapted to the culture you will probably never feel like you truly belong.
3 – Rules & etiquette
Everything in Japan has its own rules and etiquette, while it is helpful in a way, it often leaves little space for spontaneity.
4 – Procedures & bureaucracies
Despite being a very technological country Japan sticks to traditional rules and procedures, it can be very challenging if you are working and want to innovate or improve procedures.
