I’ve dreamt of writing down the crazy stories and experiences I’ve left out of Youtube for many years.
Off screen there’ve been ups and downs, great moments and emotional ones, that I’ve never been able to share until now.
Life in Japan has certainly been a rollercoaster.
Release date is AUGUST 3rd.
BUT if pre-orders go well, a book tour might well happen!
So if you’ve ever wanted me to hop on a plane and pop up around the world, this year could be the one!
Many thanks guys – here’s the official description!
OFFICIAL SYNOPSIS
When Englishman Chris Broad landed in a rural village in northern Japan he wondered if he’d made a huge mistake. With no knowledge of the language and zero teaching experience, was he about to be the most quickly fired English teacher in Japan’s history?
Abroad in Japan charts a decade of living in a foreign land and the chaos and culture clash that came with it. Packed with hilarious and fascinating stories, this book seeks out to unravel one the world’s most complex cultures.
🌟’Chris Broad explores Japan in all its quirky glory..Endlessly fascinating!’
– Will Ferguson, author of Hokkaido Highway Blues
🌟 ‘Carves a unique path across Japan bringing him into contact with far too many cats, heartening renewal in Tohoku, and even pizza with Ken Watanabe.’
– Iain Maloney, author of The Only Gaijin in the Village
🌟’Fascinating, fact-packed and very funny..An excellent and enjoyable read for the Japan-curious. I loved it and learned a lot.’
