On Condescending Expats in Japan

Posted on June 28, 2012 by Eryk Salvaggio

Written as a counterpoint to my recent post about being condescended as a foreigner in Japan, I wrote a snarky column rant for Fukuoka Now! magazine this month about being condescended by foreigners in Japan.

You can find it in English here and in Japanese here.
