What do you wish you brought with you from your home country?
My friend got upgraded from alternate and is set to leave soon (I’m also alternate but have yet to get the call, fingers crossed!). I want to get her something as a bon voyage gift. She already has a Japanese phrase book and has travelled to Japan recently. I’m wondering what I could give her to take over there, whether it’s for travelling, housing, or teaching. Preferably something small or compact so it doesn’t affect her pack list, or maybe something she doesn’t realise she’ll miss.
We’re Australian, so I’m thinking stickers of Bluey to give to her students if she’s allowed to do that.
Edit: Thank you everyone!! I hope this post comes in handy for someone else in the future. I will take the suggestions into consideration. I’ve also decided to get her a personalised passport holder as a heartfelt gift that she can use. I love my passport holder so I hope she’ll like hers!
