Living in another country sure can be interesting. Is being foreigners in Japan our whole personality? I guess so. Stick around for silly stories (from us and you, the listeners) about work, dating, language learning, embarrassing moments, current events, and deep dives on Japan-related topics we’re curious to learn more about.

  • They’re the Best

    I moved from Japan several months ago, but I really enjoy listening to Cheyenne and Frankie’s podcast. It makes me feel nostalgic for my time in Japan. I think they paint a realistic picture of what living in Japan is like without playing into the dramatics that other content creators do. I really recommend giving their podcast a shot!
