Solo Female Traveller: One Year in Japan

Description

The book Solo Female Traveller: One Year in Japan talks about adventures and student life of a Czech traveller in the land of the rising sun. She spent there one year, and, among others, hiked the highest mountain Mt. Fuji in a typhoon, hitchhiked to the northernmost point of Japan (in the freezing island of Hokkaido) and surfed in the tropical paradise of Okinawa. She was also learning Japanese and found a job for a few months. The book describes various culture differences and challenges she faced while arriving in Japan without knowing even a word in Japanese, being the only non-Asian student on the campus in a small town where not many people spoke English.
