Going Abroad to Come Home | Kakehashi: Building Connections Abroad

The application for the Kakehashi Program is dropping next month, and this is an opportunity you don't want to miss! Created by the Japanese government to promote American travel to Japan, this 10-day all expenses paid (including airfare!) trip will take you and a group of other young JA adults on an adventure to explore culture, food, history, society, and diplomatic relations across Japan. In this heartfelt Part II, we chat with Scout, Hannah, Kelly, and Cris about the “Japanese goodbye”, breaking matcha machines, feeling like we come from somewhere for the first time, and what it’s like to be welcomed back to a place many of our families haven’t been for two generations.
