So the conclusion of this video is that yes, you're able to move into Japan without a degree, its just that you need to prove that you're able to make enough money to actually live in Japan. One thing that I didn't fully understand was that you marrying a Japanese woman gave you a permanent visa? Is that because you're married that they don't just want you to have to fly out of the country after your 1 year of "Working Holiday Visa"? Were you a teacher at one point without having a degree? I'm still confused about some topic and i'd like to learn more before trying to become a citizen in Japan. Great video none the less! ❤

I know this video is nearly half a year old but the chance you're still replying to comments I'm interested in going as a solo traveler. Would you recommend going for 2 weeks or a month I can't decide? Also what is the recommended budget for 2 weeks or a month? What time of the year do you recommend going? I was looking at October to November or November to December/. Also I am 18, thinking about going when I turn 19 (depending on the time of the year) if this gives you any information. Any help would be appreciated!

As a small growing youtuber who wants the channel to grow more, I'm always looking and responding to comments no matter if the vid is old! I would recommend a month if you want to experience as many regions as possible. I'd also do October to November, since the weather in both Kanto (Tokyo) and Kansai (Osaka) is nice that time of year. Remember that to be recognized as an adult in Japan, you need to be 20. There could be possible issues booking hotels and Airbnbs if you are under that, so make sure to confirm your stays in advance! Hope this helps! Edit: if you want more help feel free to join the discord full of Japan travel veterans that will help you with your itinerary and any questions!
Oooooo very helpful and timely😂 so as a SP freefancer, do you have to be registered with some special site in Japan to prove that you are a freelancer? You just provide them that documentation one time? Lol this sounds like it would be more fitting to my situation

To go that route, you need to set up a sole proprietorship in Japan (immigration lawyer will help) then show you've earned the minimum cap (2-3m yen per year) for 2 years ✌️

I’d love to move to Japan and live in Kamakura but what would I do? The one thing I would never do is teach English. It’s the worst language in the world and is volatile. I’d only move to Japan if I could make just as much money as I do in the U.S. and I make $102k a year.

Just stay out of Roppongi/Golden gai in Tokyo, and south of Dotonbori in Osaka. You'll be fine! LGB bars are among the safest in Japan, and has a great community behind them so you have nothing to fear frequenting those!

I think the apartment noise problem depends on the apartment. I have lived in several apartments in Japan where you can't hear a thing of your neighbors. The only time I would get complaints was if I had friends over and we were on the balcony. One apartment even had all double-glazed windows (there were a lot of windows), which meant there was no street noise.

Yeah, that is very true. But it's usually the more affordable apartments that have paper walls, at least from my experience!

Thank you! There are many people from places that are considered "third world" that get a different kind of visa to come and work at factories in Japan. Even in my little village, there's at least 50 people from southeast Asia and they are all working in the same place. Check if your government has any work exchange deals with Japan and use that as a springboard to other employment and longer stays in Japan. 頑張って!

I'd rather just visit. The American Dollar is strong over the Yen, so pretty much stay in America, save, save, save, $3000 ($1,500-$1,300 for Plane, 600-800 for Housing. And the rest for food.) That's all you need, what ever the plane ride costs, match it with Housing + Food.) 2 weeks.
