You built a life in Japan- a routine, a community, a version of yourself that made sense in that place. Then you packed it into a couple of suitcases and flew "home" to people who ask, "How was Japan?", which is an impossible question to answer.

Join us for an honest, interactive evening with fellow recently returned JETs. Together we will look at what reverse culture shock is, reflect on your experience and the growth that came with it and share resources for rebuilding your life here- personally, emotionally and professionally. You will also have space to talk with other JETs who are exactly where you are right now, in small groups with our facilitators. That's often the part that matters most: the relief of being understood without having to explain.

Our facilitators are all JET alumni with expertise and experience in intercultural transition and specifically the JET experience. We have been through this ourselves and we are here to help you make sense of it.

Registration is limited, so sign up early. Come unpack with us.

Presented in partnership with Positive Global Learning, one of our wonderful JET-Alumni Owned Business sponsors.
