Japan Society of Boston Meets Aiya Perrine (Akita, 2022-2024)

 
 
 
 

In partnership with Japan Society of Boston, USJETAA is proud to share the JSB Meets JET Alumni interview series which explores the JET experience across Japan.

In October of 2025, Japan Society of Boston got to know Aiya Perrine (Akita, 2022-2024).

If you were to return to live in Japan, would you choose to live in that same prefecture? 

Absolutely! My partner and I have discussed getting a home somewhere in Akita, or in the greater Tohoku region, to live in part-time. It’s a beautiful, lush, bountiful area of Japan, filled some of the kindest, funniest, and most open-hearted individuals you’ll ever meet. I recommend everyone to visit Akita if they get the chance!
