I have a dream. I want all students in Japan to be more social and to bond more with one another. So in order to realize this dream, a senior student and I went to Tottori. In Koyama, Tottori, we met up with students from Tottori University. They belong to ‘Gakusei-jinzai-bank’ a Non-Profit Organization (NPO) which is active in the Tottori area. We discussed how students can become closer to one another and decided to build a new group which as yet remains unnamed.
The group’s mission is to improve the chances for students from abroad to meet other nationalities. In the not so far future I will approach students of Shimane University to see their reaction. Are you interested in this movement?

Last March, I took part in a study tour to New Zealand with other 15 nursing students. I took part in the study tour for many reasons: firstly because I wanted to improve my English communication skills; and secondly because I wanted to learn about nursing in New Zealand. During our 2-week-long stay, we studied English at school and visited many healthcare facilities such as rest homes and clinics. These opportunities helped me to broaden my mind and knowledge. If you are a medical or nursing student, I recommend joining the study tour as it will undoubtedly help you with your medical and nursing studies as well as improving your English.
