There are few Japanese residents in Belarus, so there is little opportunity to use Japanese and interact with Japanese people outside of the classroom. There are few workplaces that utilize Japanese, too. In addition, there is a narrow window of opportunity for Belarus students to study abroad in Japan. Results will be shared regarding an interview with a Belarusian student who studied Japanese in university, and came to Japan after graduating. This paper shall highlight his reflections on his learning experience, and how the study of the Japanese language and culture expanded his perspective on life and himself.
