Self-Introduction

 こんにちは！

My name is Maximiliano García, I’m 22 years old and I’m from Mexico.

I came here to Japan to study and continue my home school major which is Languages, Teaching and Cultures. I plan to become a private languages teacher and pianist.

My favorite things in this world are the music, piano, hanging out with friends, parties, food, working out and running.

I’m enjoying my life in Japan, it’s amazing and dreamlike, I couldn’t have asked for a better exchange group!! I hope to make even more friends.

I want to start with the extracurricular activities because it is something pretty common in Mexico. In Japan there’s A LOT of sports clubs, art clubs, writing, journalist, etc., same as in Mexico and this is pretty common since early years of school like elementary, maybe I’m biased because I went to a really nice private school which I’d say most of them offer many activities after school; like soccer, volleyball, swimming, atletics, music, drawing, karate, school journal, etc. Most students join these activities because they like it but some others join because their parents said so, or maybe their parents are busy and they have to wait until afternoon or night to be picked up and they have to do something in the meantime, in Japan it seems that it is something cultural, people like this sense of belonging an...
