It has only been a few days and I have fallen in love with Japan. From the culture, to the beautiful castles and temples, and especially to the amazing company from the faculty and students from KGU and Osaka University, it’s everything I imagined and more.
So far we have sightseen in Kobe, Nara, and Osaka, while we have more sites to visit. Each city has its own culture and personality. I enjoyed all the deer in Nara, as well as the great shopping centers in Osaka, and the amazing fireworks we saw in Kobe.
I am excited to learn more about the pharmacies in Japan. So far, I understand that pharmacy students start right out of high school, which is different in the U.S. Honestly, I think starting right out of high school is beneficial because they can finish quicker, although, I imagine the stress of deciding what career you want to persue at 18 for the rest of your life. I also found it surprising that pharmacies in Japan do not have pharmacy technicians, which is a huge difference from the U.S.
All in all, I have had a wonderful time in Japan, and look forward to more wonderful days.
