The Nanzan University is well known for the exceptional language system. The University is composed with two branch locations which is Language focused and Humanities focused college. I am in the Language focused college and learning intensive Japanese language. A lot of Japanese students in our college has language major, such as English, Chinese, German, French, and Arabic. So for international students, it is easy to feel some intimacy. Most of the Japanese students in Nanzan University are able to speak at least little English, and had or will have study abroad experience in past or future. Since they already know what it is like to be in abroad, Japanese students are really willing to help us out.
The following picture is a symbol of the Nanzan University in front of the main entrance.
If you have ever traveled outside of US, the most rough experience it the food. Each country has different cousine with difference sauses and cooking styles. I personally really enjoys Asian foods and raw fish, so i had no hard time getting used to Japaese food. However i did saw some other foreign students who still cannot fit their tastes to the local food.
Here are some pictures of our dinning hall foods.
Even for me, it was hard to eat actual Japanese food at first; not American-Japanese food which sells in US, those are made to fit Americans taste. As you can see, Japanese Lunch is simple and only one dish with everything together. It looks like just mixing all ingredients together, but it is harmonious blended to have great taste. Please try if you have a chance.
This is it for this blog, but i will update more information about the life in Japan within this week. thank you very much for reading, and please come to check out more photos on future blog.
Location: Nanzan University, Nagoya, Japan

the Japanese foods are way less spicy. and cafeteria food is totally different with Korean.
i can say your Korean is really good, haha, by looking at typing does words.
the cafeteria food here at Sogang is pretty bad from what everyone says.
but since i love korean food, i even like the cafeteria food.
how does japanese food compare to korean ? less spicy ?
do they have things like 비빔밥 and 떡볶이 ?
also, happy Hangul Day !
Actually, your lunch menu looks pretty darn good! Looking forward to seeing more pictures of local culture.
The food looks so yummy! Glad you have adjusted to the food there, that can be difficult. I bet Japanese food is a lot different than American-Japanese food, probably way better too!
