During this program for me as an usual student who had never been in Japan, this exchange propram, in which I had the honor to participate, was wonderful. I enjoyed Japanese culture very much, through such things as communication with Japanese students, natives in Gokayama and Shiramine and usually on the streets, shops and other. Japan is a country that is very positive. In my opinion, Japan is an amazing mixture of urbanism and old culture, from which Europe is so eager to move away. It is very difficult to compare Japan and Russia because of the mentality. We all do a lot of things in different ways - work, do cleaning, relax and etc. Nevertheless, we can respect and understand each other, customs and habits. I was very glad to see it, and I hope this year's program will be another one step for International Unity.
