RE: *** Follow me on my journey as I struggle to make my dreams since 7 become a reality in JAPAN!*** -Dylan(20 yrs old)
Welcome to Steemit. I think you’ll find it can really supplement everything you’re already doing here quite well.
I’d recommend reposting that video and introducing yourself, or just the video, in Japanese and labeling it with the tag #japanese so that you can begin making contacts with the Japanese community.
I think you’ll find your identity crisis really developed in another year or two when you visit home, or later when you have kids in Japan.
Thank you this is hugely helpful !
I thought about reposting it in Japanese but was very worried people would think I'm just recycling content.
I will be sure to post in Japanese as well!
For sure! I currently am visiting home and feel I guess what you could call "reverse culture-shock" .
Thanks for the advice! Much Appreciated!

I’ve found reverse culture shock to be much bigger than culture shock in itself, at least when dealing with Japan.
Many people make two posts, one in each language. I’ve never seen anyone complain about it, and it looks much neater. Sometimes having two languages on one page looks really messy.
And when it’s your own content, you can definitely use it as you want. If readers don’t like it, they will let you know, either by not voting, by downvoting, or by leaving you comments.
