Final Thoughts - Japan 2018

I've been back in U.S. for just a few days now and I already miss Japan. I feel so fortunate to have been hosted by the gracious faculty and students from Kobe Gakuin University (KGU) and Osaka University. Everyone I encountered was so welcoming and eager to help us foreigners experience Japanese culture and enjoy our time in Japan. One of the professors from KGU and clinical pharmacist, Dr. Nakagawa spent entire days with us making sure we were able to get the most out of out time in Japan. We were also accompanied by amazing guides. This experience allowed me to better learn about serving others and selflessness, which are both character traits I hope to display as a person and future pharmacist.

I have returned extremely thankful that I had the opportunity to go on this trip. To UofA faculty, KGU faculty and students, and Osaka University faculty and students, thank you. I cannot wait to one day return to Japan!


Sincerely,

David Perez
