Japan: The Safest Country

Japan is well known for its safety. Ever since I came to Japan, I stopped being worried about leaving my stuffs in public places. I know nobody would take my belongings. That well-known stereotype about Japan was also the reason why my parents supported the idea of me coming here to study. However, a stereotype like that also has its downside. Everywhere we go, no matter how safe it seems, there will always be good and bad people. I have seen many news on television during breakfast with my friends, and the cases have shown that the stereotype is not entirely correct. That is why it’s important to always be careful. We can never let our guards down. I feel scared when I walk alone at night, and some of my friends feel the same too. I think the most important thing is to never feel too safe, because we have to always be careful no matter where we are.
