I really agree with the Austin's lesson about socializing, that his "mentor" gave him long ago. I deeply suppose that it's important to embrace all chance of socializing. Now I'm coming to UK as an exchange, and after a couple of months I realized that if I refused any chance, I would never meet and get to know people that I could have meet there. Definitely I spend rest of my time in UK as actively as possible, thanks Austin and Arthur!
Bad advice about not saying no in Japan. Definitely do not say "Yes" to any bar barkers or street touts on the streets of Kabukicho, Roppongi and Ikebukuro. You might get scammed for a $1000 bill after drinking.

I love the Austin’s stories about western country bars and reggae bar😂
日本人が友達少ないとか自殺が多いということに関して、私の意見では、日本人は職場の同僚や同じ学校の人以外と友達になる習慣が少ないと思います。
また、外国人のように"hang out"するぐらいのeasyな友達関係もつことにもあまり慣れてないですね。
私もそうですが、introvertな人たちならば、なおさらそうだと思います。
外人特有の東京=日本とナチュラルに思ってるところ謎すぎる
NYの常識をシアトルに当てはめたらたぶん否定してくるんだろうなあ
