Anne Crescini, an author, blogger, and media personality, has a unique journey that spans continents. Originally from the United States, she has called Japan home for nearly a quarter of a century. Recently, Anne took a significant step by naturalizing as a Japanese citizen. In this episode, I sit down with her to discuss her experience during the naturalization process and delve into some of the challenges she has faced—both with fellow expats and the infamous netto uyoko—on Twitter and beyond.
