What Inspired and Inspires me to Live in Japan.

There are still a lot of things you can do you know? Just because you are over the age of 25, it doesn't mean you won't get any chances. My father didn't have a single degree up until a year ago. He is 43 now. He completed a technician educational program. He did all of this by following a course which he had set up for himself.

I tend to come to most things too late in life to do much about them. I suspect that I'm now too old to ever realistically view living in Japan as a real option. Best of luck to you!

Don't worry about it. You don't have to live in Japan to appreciate the country.

An extended vacation (or several of them) will allow you to experience the people, culture, their way of living, etc. while avoiding the complexities such as visa sponsorship, accommodations, etc.

I always find myself dreaming about living in Japan one day but I'm always reminded by my Japanese/Canadian friends who've been "tainted" by western living that I'm much better off as a visitor than as a citizen.

Exactly. I'm thinking of spending six months there next year, as immersion is realistically the best way to get to grips with a language

That's awesome!

I'm thinking of taking some time off and doing something different. Like spend 3 months hiking from Tokyo to Osaka, cycle the country from tip to tip or circumnavigate the country in a sea kayak... or do all 3.

That would be so awesome! Do it, do it

Yeah I love Australia to much to move out permanently. A six to twelve month stay would be more than enough to get a feel for the Japanese way of life I think.

I plan to treat Tokyo like candy. Really shouldn't have to much of it in one sitting. Abcence makes the heart grow fonder.

Too fond. I think I've spent more on flights and trips than it would've cost to just rent an apartment for half a year LOL.
