Let me introduce myself.. My name is Chinmay Karkhanis.. Originally from India, Born and raised in Mumbai. Completed my bachelors of electrical engineering. I have a huge interest in learning foreign languages, love travelling, socializing on the international standard meaning I love to make friends and meet people not just from my country but from all over the world. Literally boosts my energy.
When I was very young, my father (Pravin Karkhanis) use to tell me many stories about Japan(The Land of the rising Sun).Stories like Japan is the most cleanest country in the world, Japanese women wear Kimono, Japan experiences a lot of Earthquakes and Volcanic eruptions, Japan has the worlds fastest bullet train etc. etc. which made me motivated, and eager to come to Japan.
While I was studying my bachelors, I started studying Japanese Language but it was quite difficult to focus on both things at the same time. Hence it took me a while to reach to this level.
After finishing my bachelors I started working in the Japanese firm called Fujitsu Consulting India Pvt. Ltd. in Pune for two years as level 1 Technical support for 2 years. It was a good opportunity where I could utilize my Japanese in the workplace but the only problem was I had to work in 3 shifts(Morning-Afternoon- Night) which was so random and tedious that it affected my health. Also I was looking for Job opportunities in Japan.
Later I was contacted by a recruiter who were hiring for the position in Japan. I was so excited but at the same time I was scared with less years of experience, how would I survive in Japan. On my confirmation in this firm I had to create all the documents and the day finally arrived where I got my working Visa for Japan. I still couldn't imagine it. Then I got the one way flight ticket from Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminal International Airport to Narita International Airport Japan. Still it was unbelievable for me that the dream of me going to Japan has come.
Along with the excitement I was super nervous that How would I travel by plane, because I never traveled by plain ever in life, didn't knew any internal procedures. Also if I go to Japan how will I survive too much of positive stress and anxiety. But on the contrary I had decided that I will Do it... No matter what happens.. will do it without giving up. Not knowing where would this journey take me.
