Details

Experience Japan with the AYFN’s Japan Experience Program. This program is open to students and learners desiring a short-term immersion program in Japan culture. With the goal of increasing foreign students’ understanding of Japan, The AYFN Exchange Academy is offering an invaluable Japan learning cultural immersion program. The program offers cultural excursions to enhance the Japanese experience. This entails a program which is specifically designed to offer Japan trip for students/youth from ages 17-25 as well as a chance for these students/youth to gain a cultural understanding of Japan. This will be done through both visiting famous Kyoto and Osaka attractions and partaking in typical cultural activities such as experiencing Japan tradition (wear Kimono), eating traditional Japanese foods (Ramen, Udon, Curry, etc). Our aim is to inspire the students to open their minds to other cultures. We want the students/youth to end their trip by leaving with a better knowledge of Japan. During the program, participants will take public transport (Bus, Metro, subway train) to deepen understand the Japanese way of life and be like a local.
