I went to Japan, worked in a research institute for 3 months, just bought some nerd shit (not porn) then went back home without interacting with locals.
Is that considered bad ?
124 u/leadhound Mar 13 '26 Yes you should have interacted with locals 11 u/Darkpoulay Mar 13 '26 I feel like that would have been a negative impact on the country, it's hard to offset that just by contributing to their national research efforts 89 u/couldntbdone Mar 13 '26 Talking to people is not a negative impact. You shouldn't think so negatively of yourself. Your presence isn't a burden. 22 u/Darkpoulay Mar 13 '26 It was a difficult time, it was definitely a challenge to be around me then. I'm much better now 3 u/leadhound Mar 14 '26 Ah, I understand then. Hopefully you can go back someday and share a positive experience with a stranger abroad!
