Well, considering the size I believe that it really isn’t worth the prices. So say a one bedroom is 700$ while a two bedroom is 800$ (hypothetically) considering the size difference, the second option seems considerably better. So yes I agree a smaller space is easier to clean yet would you want to be paying for a room that’s not worth the price ?.

I think that when most people think of ‘moving to Japan’, they’re thinking of Tokyo. Tokyo is amazing, yes. But honestly, life there is pretty hard compared to many other (especially less urban) areas of the country. Ilive right in the center of Japan in Mie prefecture, and it’s pretty rural...but also convenient. Cheap and fresh food, relaxed culture and lifestyle, beautiful scenery and nature. AND it’s only an hour from Nagoya one way, and an hour and a half from Osaka the other way on the train. And guess what? I’m still here after 20 years!

Exactly, my friend. If you let the internet and the media decide everything for you, you will never reach your dreams.

If you end up loving it, great. You can stay as long as you like and enjoy it for yourself despite what everyone else says. After all, are you not the one who will actually be present in Japan?

I've never lived abroad but I imagine a big part of it is adapting and integrating into their culture (without necessarily giving up your own). I never understand the people who go to live abroad but expect everything to be the same or to have the same products/brands as back home. I want to move to Japan because I appreciate the culture - what's the point of living in a different culture if you refuse to experience it?

[@mazenbraika2069]

You can, uh, visit? Bro you won't be thinking of culture if you live in Japan, you'll be thinking about paying your bills not your romance anime "culture"

[@meganingram-jones7587]

@@mazenbraika2069 yeah, I'm definitely going to visit first. It's very different living somewhere than visiting, I am aware of that. But it also has nothing to do with anime for me - that's not what I meant by culture. There's a lot more to Japan than anime, I'm sure you know that. I also get why you assume that's the reason but I assure you, it's not. And I wouldn't move somewhere if I had no plan of paying my way. My point still stands - I don't understand the people who move to another country but not what to experience their culture. In fact, I imagine it would be very hard to avoid the culture when your own is so different (your meaning general, not you personally). I know a lot of things would be different in my every day life.

[@mjspice100]

@Meghan Ingram-Jones. You are more or less right. I moved from the UK to Malta 5 years ago having visited several times first. There is a world of difference between visiting a country and living there but embracing their culture is one part. Of course what makes things easier is that most Maltese people speak English as it is an official language here but learning a few words and phrases in the Maltese language goes down well. There is only one way of doing things and that is the Maltese way, knowing people helps and they will guide you, while their bureaucracy may seem antiquated it is strangely efficient and things get done reasonably quickly. Maltese people are polite, friendly and helpful for the most part but if you behave like a self entitled brat then they will slam the door in your face, I have heard foreign people here complain of that but they only have themselves to blame. Getting involved with the local community helps tremendously here too, the local people really appreciate it. It takes a little time and you have to grit your teeth a lot but once you get used to things then life is good… 🙂

I decided in 2007 after my first trip to Japan that I can't work or stay in Tokyo for long. Don't get me wrong. I love the food, culture, shopping, scenery, people, safety, cleanliness, etc. So, I would come back to Japan again. Planning an Osaka/Kyoto trip in 2025. For some context, I'm from Singapore and our population density is pretty high but not like Tokyo. It's honestly a bit overwhelming there and I prefer somewhere like Otaru. It's fine to travel and stay a few days but long term, I just feel it's too crowded, especially after my 2nd trip in Dec 2022. Dealbreakers for me: I'm used to owning my home so renting just seem weird. The bureaucracy is CRAZY! I came in Dec 2022 and the online immigration paperwork took me 2 days to complete for 5 of us. We even need to upload scans of our travel documents for verification and there are 3 steps for each person and 10 uploads to get it approved. Owning a car in Singapore has to be the MOST expensive in the world so I'm not daunted by the inspection, which is required here as well. I remember I was wearing summer sportswear with leather jacket to a high-end cafe frequented by mostly women and I get looks from a obasan. It didn't make me uncomfortable but I guess she didn't approve of what I wear since I don't conform. Too bad for her! I'm just a tourist.🤭 For tech, honestly I prefer to buy in Japan. The specs are as high-end as USA (laptops) and the audio equipment are awesome! I even have an Amazon JP account and I'd ship things from Japan on and off. The only issue with laptop/PC component is, Japan seems to be more expensive than USA or Singapore. The other thing I can't get around is the hierarchy system for careers. I prefer working in a team that has a flat hierarchy and I can't imagine myself working in a company that has such strict hierarchy where seniority, instead of meritocracy, is the norm.

Japan is a great and beautiful country, i love to live, i feel very safe and comfortable.

I also find it difficult to make friends here, but some Japanese people i know told me that its difficult for them to make friends with other Japanese too.

Late releases on movies Me, a pirate: no problem All jokes aside- I have wanted to live in Japan for years. Yes, I’m kind of weeby, but never to the point that I am ignorant to the reality of Japanese culture. I visited Japan in 2018 and have missed it so bad everyday. I don’t think I’ll live there forever, as I would miss the variety of food that I have here in the US, as well as my family, but I am not surprised by most of these things. The one thing I would not compromise on are drinking parties and things like that. Being part of the group is all okay I guess until it comes to things that may compromise my health. I will never compromise on that. I think people go with, it’s another culture, so you can’t really say anything about it... I can personally say that I believe it to be part of the culture that I consider bad. No culture is perfect, Japan sucks in many, many ways (like sexism, transphobia and homophobia, for example), just like where I’m from, the US, sucks so bad sometimes it makes me want to run away and never look back. Just because you move somewhere else doesn’t mean you have to accept every unfair thing thrown at you... I think this excuse is used a lot for the very archaic Japanese practices. I fully believe this for every place, like I’m not one of those people who are like, this is america, we speak english 😤 Like talk about being an asshole. Japan is often xenophobic and they need to get over it just like the US needs to chill the fuck out. What is the point of this post? Every place sucks! But if you want to try out living somewhere completely different try it... compromise is essential but that doesn’t mean you have to say everything is okay just because it’s a different culture.
