As with any adventure, International Students step out on to a new step in their travels. 

A part of getting about and finding new experiences is "how to" do things. 

In this series of blog posts, our ISA will take you on a detailed journey through the life around Biwako-Kusatsu Campus (BKC)*. 

Kyoto is the ancient capital of Japan. With so much history, one can find unique encounters with the past. All you need to do is take a careful look, and perhaps through a perspective. Through this blog, we follow Bondan, as he shares his views through his glasses on films.

As a student in Japan, exploring through the cities, especially Kyoto, this could be another way to enjoy life in Japan.

To international students at Ritsumeikan University, not only university life is new, student life in Japan is brand new too. They both could bring tons of new experience. For this blog entry, we invited Sulvienna Esther Susanto (Indonesia) of Global Studies (GS) major to share with us an episode of her experience in Japan.
