Go! Go! Nihon Live and Study in Japan!
In 2009, after meeting and studying at a Japanese language school together, Davide and John start working on a project that will make the process of living and studying in Japan much easier.

There is an immediate positive reception to the service and the first long-term students start the October session that year.
