What is Japan like — I’m scared?
Being someone who has never experienced Japan myself, I will have to go from what I’ve heard. Japan seems really scary, when you don’t know how well you will be prepared but it will be easy. Japan is really, really fun. All the 8th graders like going and it is a real learning experience for them. After you have learned a lot of Japanese in your three years at Odyssey, and had so much preparation from the teachers and Odyssey alumni, it will be a piece of cake.
