Going to be student in Japan. Please recommend good web/blog/page to follow for knowing more about Japan.? - Twinkle [DA] - 10-15-2012 07:54 PM
Please recommend good website/blog/facebook page etc. for me to follow. I want to know more about Japan by reading interesting story about Japan. Now I still can't read Japanese please recommend only English website. The pages which I already followed such as kyotofoodie, the Hokkaido likers, Cool Japan etc.
And if someone know where I can practice language with Japanese people, please advice too.
Thank you very much! Arigatou gozaimasu
To answer Boyaki. Now I'm studying Japanese language but I'm sorry that it is not good enough for reading whole Japanese pages. That's why I asked for English pages and learning more and more in anyway I can.

You're going to be a student in Japan, and you can't read/speak Japanese. Something doesn't belong there.
Unless you're planning on attending the one or two international schools in Japan, unless you can pass at least Level 2 of the JPLT, you're not going to be taking any classes in Japan, since 99.8% of all secondary education will be taught in Japanese.

I'm ryou, living in Tokyo.
My recommendations are
NHK World(public broadcast in Japan)
http://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/
Nikkei(famous economic newspaper in Japan)
http://e.nikkei.com/e/fr/freetop.aspx
These are a little bit boreing for you.
If you are OK, please send me a e-mail to me.
I'd like to improve my English skill.
So, I visit this site.
Good luck!
