What’s it like to be “Living the Dream” in Japan? I often receive this hypothetical question (as with many of my foreigner peers who have weathered many cherry blossoms on these shores) and there is never an accurate answer. Some say it’s living a life of self reliance among the communal pressure or others can argue its to be fully assimilated in that same community. What I do know is that those that live this life in Japan successfully maintain a healthy balance in between both ends of this spectrum. But how does one do this while working in Japan’s highly oiled and over intricate corporate machine? For this question I had a chat with my man, Walter. For those of you wondering what’s it like for a foreigner working deep in the corporate scene, his story gives some clarity. And if you are curious in taking this path in your career, his valuable advice should be considered when you’re searching for your own dreams. 🤘🏻🐼🤘🏻
