I’ve heard from a lot of expats who reluctantly have to be relocated to Europe that it could be difficult to adapt back to life in European cities again, some told me they got ‘’spoiled’ by the feeling of safety in Seoul, Tokyo Shanghai or like Hongkong, also the convenience such as accessibility to supermarkets, convenient stores etc. There could be more but that’s all I can recall.

So did you find it difficult or challenging once you go back to live in Europe, after experiencing Asian cities for several years, if not, i would be interested to know why as well.

    I lived in Japan, and crime is low of your male but quite high if you’re a young, slimish female. In terms of safety, I feel safer in the UK from assault and harassment but more likely to get my phone stolen

      I see, where in the UK do you live to feel safer from assault and harassment?

        South London. I’ve grown up here. But only in Japan, have I been felt up on the train, followed home, and had my underwear stolen from my balcony.
