Hi!! My name is Lauren and welcome to my life in Osaka, Japan.
I am a native Floridian and moved to Japan in 2012 with a dream of making a life here and working in a Japanese company. I successfully graduated from Elon University in 2012 and made my way to Japan to study for my MBA at Doshisha University, where I graduated in 2014 and successfully entered a small business in Osaka, Japan.
If you want content about Japanese pop culture and life in Japan, this is the place for you! I'll talk about everything from how to get a job in Japan to how to organize your Japanese idol goods. My goal is to bring Japanese culture to the world by explaining how life really is like here for an expat and how pop culture is the ultimate soft power.
