Hey, I’m Justin! I grew up in a single-parent household, and my mom has always been my biggest supporter. But ever since COVID, things have been tough—her work hasn’t been as stable, and while she’s done everything to keep us going, it hasn’t been easy. Despite the challenges, my love for history, culture, and travel has never faded. I’ve always been fascinated by France—its art, its stories, and the way life moves there. I studied European history, took French courses, and connected with French-speaking friends, but I know that experiencing the country firsthand is the only way to truly understand it. That’s why I’m taking a leap and heading to France on a working holiday! My goal is to immerse myself in the culture, improve my French, and gain experiences that I can later use to bridge cultural understanding between Japan and France. I’ll be working, exploring, and sharing my journey along the way—but I need a little help to make it happen. Any support goes directly toward essentials like accommodations, transportation, and language courses. Even a small contribution means the world to me and helps me take one step closer to this dream. Merci beaucoup for being part of this adventure!
