About this deal
It does off a small dictionary section in the back, but it only has Chinese and Spanish, not including Portuguese which many foreign students speak. Packed with hilarious and fascinating stories, this book seeks out to unravel one the world's most mysterious and impenetrable cultures. When Englishman Chris Broad landed in a rural village in northern Japan he wondered if he'd made a huge mistake. Abroad in Japan charts a decade of living in a foreign land and the chaos and culture clash that came with it.

Curious about Japan and what’s held behind the curtains? In conclusion, This book isn't a guide book as such, but part account of his experiences, part informative and interesting provider of trivial yet somehow important information, but most of all a reflective and appreciative account of a society so different from his own Western experience that he demonstrates a real love of the place.

Thanks Chris! I know Chris from youtube and he's great so I had to buy his book and I'm happy I did! It's not the classic book with the usual infos about Japan than most people who are into it already know.

While he's no expert, he downplays what becomes apparent - his willingness to learn and embrace his new setting. You're sure to learn something new and have a laugh whilst doing it.
