year in Japan
03-09-2011, 12:04 AM
I really loved Tokyo and literally fell in love with it, the J culture, the food and of course, the super mad fly J girls and will everything to return there but this time, for at least a year. I realize my best option is to apply for the Working Holiday Visa which would allow me to stay there for a year and both work/study. I do not plan on working there, as I'll be running my little online biz, however, I do plan on enrolling in a J language course and other cool activities like Aikido, Judo etc...
Now, has anyone from here gone this route? I mean applied for the Working Holiday Visa and stayed in Japan for 1 year or more?
Also, while I did love Tokyo with a capital L, I'd like to spend time in other cities in Japan as well. I keep hearing/reading names like Osaka, Nagoya, Hiroshima, Yokohoma etc... Anyone here stayed long time in these places? If yes, I'd love to hear your thoughts/feedback on them. I also keep on reading that while the Hokkaido region is cold as hell, it happens to have the hottest and wildest girls in all of Japan? Is there any truth to that? I also keep on hearing that the Fukoka region has basically a tropical climate and has some nice beaches. Anyone from here been there?
I'm calling on all the Japan experts in here to shed some lights about Japan and living there for a year (at least initially, who knows after...).
Arigato gozaimsu!
