Hey I'm Jody (he/him) and I studied abroad at Temple Japan Kyoto in Spring '25.

Ask me about exploring hidden gems in Kyoto and how to maximize your budget while having fun abroad!

"Studying abroad is an opportunity for you to challenge yourself and really put yourself out there and try new things like conversing with people who might not speak the same language or trying new foods and activities in a completely different environment, especially if you’re participating in a program where you don’t know anyone from your home university."
