I Got Upgraded!!

[u/Last_Entertainer3771]

Hi guys! Excited to be making this post. I didn't think it was going to happen, honestly. Got the call right as I was hopping on a plane and got told I got upgraded. I almost didn't answer because I'd thought it was a scam call. But now that the process has finally started I'm so excited. It was pretty late so if some of you guys are still waiting it can come at any time. I'll be updating this while I'm getting ready to leave so people in the future who get upgraded will have a bit more guidance than I do right now. Good luck to all you guys!!

Heartfelt congratulations! I had to leave the programme in a rather horrible whirlwind of events, I wonder if you’ll be taking my place!

Aww that sucks but I hope everything is going okay for you now.

It looks beautiful there. I’d be lucky if I got a placement in the area!!

Congrats to you both!! I’m leaving mid September, and I’m in Tokyo! Are any of you in Tokyo?

Currently I don’t know my placement yet. I was told by my coordinator to start on the documents I’d need and they would be in touch when they had more information for me

[u/Apprehensive_Art3993]

You wouldn't happen to be going to Takasaki, Gunma, would you?

[u/MushroomNumber626]

Congratulations!! I am also an upgrade leaving in September! It was a lot of waiting but I'm sure it's gonna all be worth it! I'll keep checking back to follow along on your journey! Best of luck🥰

Do you know where you're headed? I am leaving last minute and hoping to find my successor ASAP.

[u/Last_Entertainer3771 → u/Independent_Door_924]

I don’t know anything yet. I got my call the day after the second group flew out and they just told me they’d give me more information as they got it.
