Cultural Differences

Every time I talk with my friend from America, who lives in Japan now, I come to think that I also want to live in another country and to experience cultural differences. My friend can speak Japanese but I think he is facing many challenges in this country. This is because Japanese people tend not to express their opinions clearly and to tell opinions which is different from what they have in their minds. My short term target is to get a job as a programmer next year and the next target is to live abroad. I want to achieve these two dreams by the age of 34.
