jaPODCAST – 5: Interview: Rochelle talks life in Japan as a Jamaican JET

My first interview with a Guest is Rochelle Brooks-Mighty; A Jamaica JET participant living and working in Japan. This interview is following up on previous blog posts with awesome text interviews of Jamaica JETs Marc Mundy and Nicola Williams who are living and working in Japan. Enjoy the episode and provide feedback! Please excuse a few audio issues and a few beeps in the background (Rochelle’s heater, it’s winter in Japan). Rochelle was also quite the ninja and was balancing her baby while sharing her story. Thank you for your time!
