Leaving is an End. Re-entry is a New Start.

I first knew the meaning of the term “re-entry” in a re-orientation meeting for exchange students.

Re-entry means adjusting back to your own culture, or getting another round of “culture shock”.  IES staff encouraged and preped us for re-entry and so …here I come.

I will definitely miss Japan, miss my IES family and my host family. We all know that it’s not the last time we see each other. Japan, I will be back. My IES friends, see you next time.
