Represent the dialog for retrieving similar scenarios Speaker2: Hi! :) How are you doing?
Speaker2: How do you find yourself in Japan? Do you like your new job?
Speaker2: I haven't heard from you for ages!
Speaker1: Hey! :) I'm doing fine, thanks.
Speaker1: My job is just ok, but, you kow, nothing overly exciting. I'm sightseeing a lot and generally enjoying myself. :)
Speaker1: The only thing that sucks is that I feel an outcast.
Speaker2: Why?
Speaker2: You speak Japanese fluently, you're very knowledgeable about Japanese culture, you've been in Japan several times, so what's the problem...?
Speaker1: My appearance.
Speaker2: ???
Speaker1: I live in a very rural region of Japan, I'm the first gaijin that some of these people have ever seen, so I cause a sensation everywhere I go.
Speaker1: People take photos of me (often without my permission), follow me or just stare. I even had two marriage proposals!!
Speaker1: It makes me feel like an animal in the zoo... I knew that this region isn't as diverse as Tokyo, so I was somehow prepared for it, but, still, it's just upsetting.
Speaker2: :( I hope that  you'll find your place on this island and get to know some more open-minded people. :/
Speaker2: I miss you a lot. :( Are coming home for Christmas?
Speaker1: I miss you too. :( I don't know yet, but I'll ty to.
