A Book with 6 chapters
Hello, I’m glad to sharing my exchange experience with you all. :D My name is Angarag Munkhbayar, I’m from Mongolia where located at Central Asia. I’m 17 years old, 2nd batch of Asia kakehashi project.
The six months that I spent at japan were the most memorable and unforgettable time in my life.
My placement was the city called Sendai.
First month, I was new to this city, so traveling through city was great decision.
I remember that I was completely surprised that my host school had seven floor. In Mongolia, it’s not so common.
One of the major reasons that I was surprised was that my host school had so many clubs that I can join. It was little bit tough to choose the proper one, but basketball and music club seemed interesting to me.
I think if someone staying in foreign countries, there’s must be culture shocks. However Mongolia and japan both have some similar culture and lifestyles, but most of them were different. For example, Japanese jokes are not same as Mongolian, it depends on the difference between two languages. Also communication between friends was little bit different, so one the most difficult thing was to understand how they communicate to each other.
AKP project is the great way to experience this valuable experience. It will help me when I go to university of foreign countries. In one word, it’s the beginning of all things, perhaps it would be the first step to understand the different cultures, so it helps us to become global citizens.
