"Near the Nanzan University, the opening of the Studio Ghibli Theme Park allowed visitors to check out exhibits based on a variety of Studio Ghibli films."

"In the Nanzan International dorms, there are 5 Japanese and 5 international roommates that share the dining room and kitchen. We hosted events weekly to get to know each other and share our favorite foods."

"A 3-hour bus ride away from Nanzan University is Nara Park, an area famous for the deer that live there. You can feed them senbei (rice crackers) and enjoy a lot of deer-themed things."

"I got assigned a language buddy while attending Nanzan University. My language buddy and I met every other week during lunch to talk about our backgrounds and culture. I got to meet my language buddy's friends often. This picture was taken by another Nanzan student who ran an account taking photos of those that ate lunch in the 'Green Area'."
