I have moved to Iwata City, Shizuoka Prefecture.
Before moving to Iwata City, I visited Iwata City and had the experience of actually living there.
At that time, I was fascinated by Iwata City's mild climate, rich nature, and the kindness of the local people, and decided to move there.
Warm climate
The first reason for choosing Iwata City is its mild climate.
Where I used to live, the climate was cold in winter and hot in summer, but Iwata City has four distinct seasons, but I found it relatively mild and comfortable even in winter.
Diverse tourist attractions
Iwata City also offers a wide variety of tourist attractions.
Close to both the ocean and the mountains, you can go to hot springs, museums, parks, and many other places.
I myself enjoy going to hot springs with my family on weekends and taking walks in nearby parks.
Accessibility
Furthermore, Iwata City has good access to transportation, providing smooth access to Shizuoka City and Hamamatsu City.
In addition, there are many commercial facilities around Iwata Station, and I feel that it is easy to get all the necessities for daily life.
Struggling dialects
However, after moving to the area, I had some difficulty communicating with the locals.
At first, it was difficult to understand each other's dialect and to convey what we wanted to say to each other.
However, as we gradually interacted with the locals, we became accustomed to the dialect and began to have a good time.
Also, having lived in the city, I was sometimes confused by my living environment.
Need to drive a car
I was particularly puzzled at first by the need to drive a car.
However, Iwata City is a car-oriented society, and it is sometimes difficult to lead a daily life without a car,
I am now licensed and able to drive a car.
Nevertheless, I feel that life in Iwata City, Shizuoka Prefecture, is very enriching because of the rich natural surroundings for plastic surgery.
Since moving to Iwata City, I have enjoyed interacting with the local people.
I was able to make new friends by greeting and chatting with neighbors and participating in community events.
Iwata City is a city of soccer
Iwata City is also known as a soccer town, and since it is home to Jubilo Iwata of the J-League, people also enjoy watching sports games.
Before moving here, I was used to the conveniences of the city, so I was sometimes confused by the living environment.
I was particularly puzzled at first by the lack of public transportation and the need to drive a car.
However, Iwata City has a bicycle rental service, and I have gradually become accustomed to bicycle commuting and shopping.
In addition, the local people were warm and supportive, and the information and advice they provided us with for our daily lives was a great help to us after we moved to the area.
Iwata City has many delicious foods, and is especially famous for its tea and sweets.
There are also many hot springs in the city, so people enjoy visiting hot springs on weekends and outdoor activities in the nearby mountains and ocean.
The abundance of nature and the mild climate were among the reasons I considered moving here, but now that I have actually lived here, I have been reminded of its charms.
Immigration Consultation
Iwata City has many programs and events that provide various types of support to those who move to the city.
Prospective immigrants were able to move to the city with peace of mind thanks to the immigration consultation service that provides information on properties in the city and local living conditions.
They also hold matching events with companies and agricultural producers in the city to help people find employment or start their own businesses.
Life in Iwata City is quiet and serene, yet offers nature, hot springs, delicious food, and sports games,
I have recently felt that having too many things to do because of the variety of activities is in some ways a luxurious problem.
Subsequently, we began to interact more with the local community and participate in local festivals and events.
At first I had a hard time adjusting to the local dialect and culture, but with the support of kind local people, I now have a better understanding of the local culture and customs.
Furthermore, I was amazed by the abundance and deliciousness of foodstuffs in Iwata City.
Because of its oceanfront location, fresh seafood is readily available, fresh vegetables and fruits can be bought directly from local farmers, and many local restaurants are frequented to taste these dishes, which make the most of local ingredients.
At first, I was confused by the living environment, but now I am used to driving a car and it has become an indispensable part of my life in Iwata City.
I'm all for moving to Iwata City.
Iwata City, Shizuoka Prefecture, is a charming place with abundant nature and food, friendly locals, and a safe, relaxed lifestyle.
I myself am very attracted to the idea of discovering new things in a new environment, but even if I didn't, Shizuoka Prefecture is a wonderful place,
If you are really on the fence about immigrating, I would suggest that you start with the experience first in order to consider immigrating.
If you are impressed by Shizuoka's charms, you may consider moving there in earnest, as I did, and you will want to live in Shizuoka Prefecture, which is full of many interesting things to see and do.
If you are in doubt, I recommend that you first look into the things I have told you about.
