well in this country we can't see it, that's why example: 'when you go to discotheque, the porter will ask everyone a identity card...or when you go to the store, and you want to buy a alcohol or cigarette..then you must also show your identity card...alcohol is not allowed for youngster under 16 year also cigarette...but still, they smoke or drunk it...because they have always have an older friend that gives them, after bought that stuffs...here in this country are the young people drinking and smoking around 11 years, even they are starting with sex around that age...ridicilous! well if they agree together i don't care...but for me in my eyes, it is not good...because the body is not fully matured, and even their mind are not really well, because they are not thinking about the impact of that...

Yon, I truly hope you will make it, but, since when do Dutch citizens speak French?

The average Dutch person speaks Dutch (at some level at least... ), English and maybe German, but that's about it.


Mmmm, I just might go and try to find a teaching job there myself... Change is good... Can you bring your pet to Japan (without difficulties)?

thank you...yeah...i can't speak french because i didn't choose the language...but german...but i am getting more forgetful when i am not speaking german, the most spoken language is now English...

no i don't thinks so...the pet is still not allowed...or it won't be easy to bring to japan...i have a Kangal dog...very huge dog, but really trustworthy dog...
but if i would bring him, then there won't be a place for him, coz i am not going to live in a big house but more little appartment

Couldn't find it. You can bring it, but it has to be quarantined. Google "Japan pet quarantine" and you should find something.

Bad idea. It's my understanding that domesticated animals must be under quarantine for 6 months, unless you have the proper JAPANESE paperwork.

If finding those that drool over underage children makes me conservative, then I would guess that you would find most of the western world to be "conservative".

Ok, googled it and it seems that, if you have the right paperwork done at home or wherever you are (blood analysis results etc.), no quarantine's required (or only for a max. of 12 hours).

Maybe it isn't as easy in reality?

Mmm, and maybe I should stop polluting this post?

Though I've never been to Japan, from what I've gathered its not that easy to be a non native English teacher... But the suggestion to see if there are positions for a Dutch teacher is pretty good if you think about it. I mean every country has teachers of every language. This would be why you can learn any language you want (English, French, Japanese, so on) in your home country, why should Japan be any different. If I learned Dutch(here in New Zealand) to the same extent that you know English, You probably could get a job as a Dutch teacher well before I could. Same thing visa versa with myself and English. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I think you are quite correct in being more likely to get an English-teaching job than a Dutch job and vise-versa. I have actually been thinking about an attempt at a job teaching English in Japan myself... probably to younger children due to the fact that they are more fun in my mind. I have been attempting to to teach myself how to speak and read Japanese since 7th grade due to the fact that I have always wanted to go there and I have always wanted to be a children's teacher at the same time.

I don't think a vacation could satisfy me simply because I have wanted to live there for a large portion of my life and have been moving toward that goal during it.
I truly desire to live in Japan, but I am still not entirely sure how to go about it.
If anyone has any ideas, I would be much abliged.

Thank you.
