I came to Japan in 2014 and am now in my 5th year working as a Specified Skills. Now I live in Japan with my wife, who also works as an engineer.

There are some difficult tasks at work, but the people at the company teach me carefully, so I am gradually able to do it. I try to ask immediately what I don't understand. I study Japanese on my own with books and YouTube brought from Vietnam. I want to pass the Specified Skilled Worker (ii) exam, so I study hard even after I get home.

On my days off, I went sightseeing in Kyoto and Osaka. I was deeply moved when I saw Kiyomizu-dera Temple and Kinkaku-ji Temple. Japanese temples and shrines are so peaceful and calming. I'm enjoying my life in Japan, including these memories.
