Tips and Advice on France from Your Fellow Japanese Expats

Obviously, expat life in France goes well beyond shipping your belongings and taking care of red tape. Socializing with fellow Japanese is an important facet of living abroad and can be a huge stepping stone in getting to know the French mentality and way of life. Japanese in France are a part of our community, calling cities such as Lyon, Nice, Paris, and many others home. You can use InterNations to look for fellow Japanese in Paris, for example.
