If you’re planning to study at the KCP International Japanese Language School in Tokyo, Japan, you might be curious about our Ikebukuro dorm and its surrounding area. Jessica Dales, one of our Fall term students from affiliate school Elizabethtown College, gives us an insider’s view through her photos and descriptions.
