I prefer more "fighting martial arts" with kicks, punches and such, where you need to be strong and work hard, so I keep my shape up until I'm going back to norway again. If you understand my point : p

But in Japan, if you join a dojo for instance, how many days each week do you need to practice with the club/dojo? In Norway it's usually 3 days a week, is it more in japan?
Do as little or a s much as you want. Most dojos in Japan are similar to others in that respect. However, you will find the dojo culture a bit different. Most dojos will let you chack them out, just like most places. Just check out dodjos until you find one you like. Ask new acquaintences and they might have suggestions for local dojos.
