Please give a short introduction of yourself.
I am Ginto George, my hometown in India is Cochin (Kerala state). Currently I am doing my doctoral studies at Department at Biophysics, Graduate School of Science, Kyoto University.
What is your favorite thing about Kyoto?
Kyoto is very peaceful and beautiful city. We can easily travel around Kyoto by bicycle. That is very good thing.
In what way has your impression of Kyoto or Japan changed since coming here?
For me Japan is very good. I am learning many new things in Japan. I like the Japanese culture and the kindness and dedication. I want to adopt many good things of Japanese culture.
What attracted you to choose Kyoto University as a place to study?
Kyoto University is the one of the top university in the world. I can do the high quality research in Kyoto University more over. I am very much interested to do my doctoral studies under Prof, Kazutoshi Mori in the field of unfolded protein response.
In what way did you adjust yourself to Japanese culture?
Language is the only thing I am facing little problem in Japan. I started to interact more Japanese people to learn the language. I don’t have any restriction in food, so I can eat Japanese foods and for me it’s delicious and healthy. Japanese culture is very liberal so I don’t have to do any adjustment to learn the culture.
Please give a message to students or researchers in your home country who may be thinking about studying in Japan?
Japan is one of the good place where you can do well standard higher studies. If you have scholarship for your study, Japan is very convenient place in case of culture, nice people and their sincere behaviors, and the good living standard.
