The Korean ambassador to Japan once told me in perfect English “the language is an endless battle. Just be yourself and don’t try too hard to fit in. If you do try to be Japanese, you’ll only be as good as the worst Japanese employees and you will lose everything about you that is special.”

The insights shared in this AMA...

arrange and oversee video shoots, do media relations, meet tourism stakeholders. I also go on a lot of business trips to different regions of Japan to advise on their tourism content.

I watched your proof video, on which you describe arriving at the location, not finding it, then being kinda snubbed off as what are you doing here.

After your years of public relations work, how differently would an interested tourist be received?

That is interesting, after joining you're their problem.

Edit: what I see as a mutual responsibility

As one wondering, I Googled this page to see what local plum blossoms look like:
