I’ve been watching this channel about a Canadian couple moving to a little village in Japan. The locals have been very welcoming. They’re renting a home from a local who were apparently very happy to have them.
I’m sure small town attitudes happen. They happen everywhere. I’m just not sure Japan is uniquely bad.
Idk. Why go to Japan if you want to live in a village when you can go go to Thailand.
what if you like Japanese culture and first world amenities
You should research Thailand a bit to update your worldview
Why the fuck would researching Thailand suddenly make me like their culture and amenities any better than Japan's
You seem like a nice person, and any culture should be proud to welcome you and your reading comprehension levels!
