I was a little nervous at first because I wasn't sure how comfortable shifting would be with my left hand, but it took maybe 5 minutes and it felt completely natural.

No - the turn signals vary based on the side the country that makes the car drives on, not base on LHD/RHD. So my BMW has them on the left so I can operate them with my left hand while changing gear with my right. A LHD Japanese car would have them on the right, because the steering column is simply shifted from the right side.
