My co-workers are also very caring and great mentors. They try to explain well and appreciated our work and always gives feedback for me. That is why I get confidence boost to do even better in the next project. It is a little bit difficult because everything is in Japanese. Working in Japan means I will get both experiences, life experience in Japan, and also challenging working experience.
