Description
For a decade, Chris Broad immerses himself in everyday life in Japan—learning the rhythms of local neighborhoods, navigating cultural differences, and discovering what it truly means to belong in a place that’s both familiar and endlessly surprising. Across a series of vivid, high-level snapshots, the book follows his journey from newcomer curiosity to deeper understanding, shaped by friendships, work, travel, and the small moments that reveal a country’s character. With warmth and humor, it explores themes of adaptation, cultural exchange, and the long arc of personal growth that comes from staying long enough to see beyond the headlines. Broad’s engaging, observational style makes Japan feel immediate and lived-in, offering readers an inviting window into the land of the rising sun through the lens of a long-term outsider-turned-insider.
