[vocal jetty]

Yeah I’ll try hopefully I wake up

[fair plume]

Where are you staying? I'm probably leaving my capsule hotel in Shinjuku around 9 in the morning so I can head closer to your area and just watch it there even if youre not up!

[ashen quail]

Update your role to in japan if youve arrived in japan 🙂

[fair plume]

Been in Japan since the beginning of October but I have no idea how to do that 😅

[scenic jackal]

Anyone going to design festa want to join forces in line?
I’m aiming for 9am

[radiant yew]

Good morning

Another day, another sightseeing grind

[wild linden]

Ill be going there as well at around the same time since idk what the line situation might look like

Guessing it might get long

[cyan spear]

I got the free festival ticket when i purchase my train ticket to Kyoto, what exactly is it?!

[scenic jackal]

It’s a huge artisan / craft / maker market

[cyan spear]

Oh okay is it in Tokyo or near Kyoto?!

[scenic jackal]

Tokyo (at Tokyo Big Sight)

[errant otter]

Some pics from Hakone

[tawdry crown]

That is the reason why I stopped grinding. A vacation is supposed to be relaxing, not a quest you must complete in a set time.

[late ginkgo]

Mood

I gave up on half of the stuff on my todo list lol

got tired of all the walking

[tawdry crown]

I have been in Japan for 6 days now and I only went to one tourist attraction.

[viral sapphire]

Where did you find this?

[tawdry crown]

The rest of the time I chilled at onsens and cafes, enjoying good food along the way.

[tawdry crown]

I didn’t plan to sightsee all that much but even I gave up a lot of stuff too.

[fossil knoll]

tbf onsens are amazing

im craving to go again

[tawdry crown]

Try the Manyo club. Maybe you went already.

I think that is by far the best onsen in Tokyo. Great panoramic view.

[fossil knoll]

i havent yet. i only been to kinosakionsen and otome yu in edogawa

ill have to check it out! thanks 😄

i heard there are some really good ones in gunma that look so nice

[radiant yew]

important to differentiate onsen towns in japan and day use bathing facilities in cities like tokyo. manyo club is one. it seems pricey, there are many options out there

super sento is what they are called

[crude holly]

I love how to fog makes ik kind of eerie

[idle roost]

No fushimi inari bamboo grove I guess

Nvm I still checked it, it's small

[willow idol]

whew finally no tourists

[spiral latch]

[spiral latch]

anyone going Yokohama todays

[idle roost]

Guess they just didn't want people to go there anymore

[storm cove]

YES!

To see an exhibition and have lunch

[idle roost]

@wise lantern are you in fushimi inari?

[misty flare]

Fushimi inari is closed??

Damn

[wise lantern]

[idle roost]

Oh, thought I briefly saw you

[wise lantern]

Hahaha man bun? Filipino?

[idle roost]

Nah, only the path to the small bamboo grove

[idle roost]

Yeah lol

[misty flare]

Oh okay

[idle roost]

But no nujabes sweater

[misty flare]

Not a big deal then

[wise lantern]

Ah dang. Must be my impostor >: (

Lmao. Funnily enough I am wearing that same sweater

[misty flare]

I'm excited for the bamboo forest in Kamakura

Going there this week

I heard it's nicer than the Kyoto one

[wise lantern]

Also I saw ichiko aoba last night for the 3rd time. Life gooood

No recordings cos Japan rules

[idle roost]

You can't record shows here?

[wise lantern]

Some shows are stricter than others

Ichiko's case I understand. New album on the way and tracks were played and it kinda removes from the atmosphere

[lime inlet]

Major acts generally prohibit filming

Indie acts are almost all okay with it

[wise lantern]

^

I'm guessing MOTFD are okay? 👀

[lime inlet]

and some formerly-indie alternative acts who blew up eg Otoboke Beaver

Yes you can film MOTFD

[wise lantern]

I'm seeing them in two days dude aaaaaaah

That still hasn't hit me 🥲

[lime inlet]

In Shimokitazawa tomorrow

[wise lantern]

Come Osaka? 👀 LOL jks

[willow idol]

anyone want a free umbrella? it's kinda big and a pain to carry around

pick up akiba or surrounds

[lime inlet]

Anyone who wants to see something incredible

Exhibition is in 20 min

[tawdry crown]

[storm cove]

Last day so it’s a bit hectic 🤣

But my determination for Spy x Family is too great

[pulsar wasp]

Do you need a reservation for cup noodle factory?

Anyone in Kumamoto? I arrive tonight before going to Kagoshima tomorrow and would be up for grabbing dinner

[late ginkgo]

Yes!

[tawdry crown]

and are we doing big echo?

[spiral latch]

after 9 I should be frees

[worn sluice]

Same here

[spiral latch]

or earlier

is this Shibuya?

[ionic wave]

famima

[tawdry crown]

I don't know what the best location is. I think we should pick a less well-known place so it isn't overly expensive and heavily booked.

[ionic wave]

oh thanks but nah, was keen on yesterday but today i might have other stuff

[worn sluice]

Great, I made borderless teamlab for next month instead of today 😭

[storm cove]

Oh no!

Go to the Pokémon instead

It’s right there

[worn sluice]

Sold out, just asked

Great morning 😂

[storm cove]

Did u click the QR

and check

[tawdry crown]

You guys wanna do big echo ginza? I thnk it is like 2000 - 3000 per person

[storm cove]

Cause they said that to me and I found one

[late ginkgo]

[tawdry crown]

If you guys can confirm, I will book for us.

[worn sluice]

Ye just checked 🥲

[pulsar wasp]

Anyone planning yakiniku for lunch

[tawdry crown]

Where are you?

[pulsar wasp]

Ikebukuro

[tawdry crown]

Do you already know of a place?

[pulsar wasp]

Nope lol

Prob check tablelog or Google maps

[late ginkgo]

what time at karaoke were you planning to book?

[tawdry crown]

Others wants to do after 9PM

I prefer a bit earlier, but can book for 9PM if that is the only available time.

I can only do 2 hours max.

[spiral latch]

I’m in Yokohama rn, but planning to be back by like 8

I’m fine with big echo

[late ginkgo]

Ok sure that works

[tawdry crown]

oh nice, so we do big echo for 8

are you guys OK with the one in ginza?

or whichever one you guys prefer

@worn sluice can you do 8PM?

[late ginkgo]

Seiya’s back to Tokyo by 8?

[tawdry crown]

yea

[late ginkgo]

Maybe 9 or 8:45 might be better for him?

[tawdry crown]

right that makes sense

[late ginkgo]

where are you staying in Tokyo?

[tawdry crown]

bakurakucho

I just need to go to bed before 12, because I am going to nikko tomorrow and the train leaves at 10:30

ok I am going to get us this one for 9PM: https://maps.app.goo.gl/LuDigLW58KAAxcTM6

[worn sluice]

Ye I can do it

As you wish guys

Just tell me 🫣

[late ginkgo]

That works for me

[worn sluice]

Why can’t I go forward
My goooood I hate it

[pulsar wasp]

So anyone want yakiniku for lunch?

[spring reef]

You going PA?

[storm cove]

My exhibition finished so I’m going to go to ginza as I need a suitcase lol

But I’ll be doing yakiniku

[tawdry crown]

Ok you guys organize. I will do my best to join.

I gotta do something now.

[spiral latch]

yup

[spiral latch]

I can’t find rental car 😅

[spring reef]

Wait so what?

[spiral latch]

For around 6pm-10pm

[spring reef]

You can take the bus back tho nah?

As in bus and train, not just the bus.

Ah shit you can't go on foot smh

Who was gonna watch the Tyson fight?

[spiral latch]

nah only option is car

u need car to get inside

[spring reef]

Yeah rip. Taxi would probably be a bump

I should've booked the experience months ago

[spiral latch]

could taxi but could also get stuck there lol

[spring reef]

Yeah imagine haha

[lime inlet]

Taxi is not a good idea because it can be hard to get a taxi out of there

[pulsar wasp]

Is he fighting Logan Paul

[spring reef]

Ye

Nah Jake

[pulsar wasp]

Oh lol interesting

[tawdry crown]

Guys I am gonna do yakiniku in my own time because I gotta take care of some things today.

Sorry

Unless you guys do it for dinner with better planning.

[pulsar wasp]

Probably dinner, I got tsukemen

[fair plume]

👋🏻

[raw plover]

Awesome pics 🔥🔥

[cursive holly]

Thanks for the recommendation, i just booked it for this evening. it just so happened I'm going to Teamlabs Planets in a few hours which is just down the road so that's ideal.

I've been walking around Yoyogi all morning and my feet are killing me, this should be perfect 😁

[sacred flame]

Planning to go here(kiyokawa) tomorrow , just 2 hours from Tokyo it seems-

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=lIVXmeH72ek

Let me know , if anyone else would like to join!

[upbeat lark]

Planets is so much fun

[cursive holly]

I'm looking forward to it, I went to Borderless yesterday and that was great. One room in particular was so trippy 😄

[tawdry crown]

Hope you enjoy your stay.

This is the view from the cafeteria.

It is the textbook perfect cyberpunk city view.

At night, of course

[cursive holly]

Thanks buddy 🙂 sounds like just what I want!

[late ginkgo]

Visual studio

We got a few devs here lol

[tawdry crown]

I am living the digital nomad life this trip.

[crude holly]

Not sure if candid pic or sneaky teamcheck 🤔

[reef hazel]

A curse on python

[worn sluice]

Maybe I was lucky, but I tried everything at the Tokyo Red with the 1 hour ticket 😂

[muted sail]

Ah, a fellow ML person I see

[sacred flame]

Hey do you have any suggestions for yakiniku places as well ?? Or in general from anywhere is fine ??

[tawdry crown]

Hell ya brother man

[reef hazel]

Currently walking from Sensoji to Ueno Park and these streets are deserted

Nice change from being surround d by loads of people

[spiral latch]

I’m programmer too

[worn sluice]

Software engineer here 🖐️

[tawdry crown]

wtf….we should have a hackathon instead of karaoke

[worn sluice]

🤣🤣
Let’s just sing away our bugs

[reef hazel]

I'm a data architect. Used to be a data engineer but I prefer to do less coding

[willow idol]

dang got a painful reminder of how fjejfhrfbing slow the Hakone tozan train is

[willow idol]

one bug found = one shot

[wise lantern]

Does anyone ever go to

The K-on school?

[late ginkgo]

hackathon but in swift 😎

[wise lantern]

Nyoooooom

I'm in the middle of nowhere

[spiral latch]

where

[wise lantern]

We'll find out in 15 mins lmao

I don't check in until 4pm so I thought hey cool random adventure time

[spiral latch]

don’t get stuck

I’ve been taking taxis, getting tired of walking 😅

[wise lantern]

I'll do my best!!

[upbeat lark]

No on yakiniku that’s @storm cove’s realm.

Kagari for Tori Paitan ramen and savoy for pizza are amazing

[sacred flame]

@storm cove - over to you !!

[feral topaz]

I just reopened the app and saw this msg. 🥺 So sorry to hear that. I was thinking of checking out Gonpachi on the night of the 19th if you are down o:!

Omg I had to scroll like 30 times to get down here but I made it!

https://maps.app.goo.gl/uDnBwFQCBKu3XHHT8?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy

[versed star]

Oooh I love the sound of that

[muted sail]

Has anyone used the cycling services in Kyoto? I'd prefer the concept of pick-up-from-the-street over rental shops, since then i wouldn't have to worry about returning the bike at certain time. But a shop might have better variety and offer helmets

[feral topaz]

Yay! Maybe around 9? Is that too late o:

[static acorn]

Currently cooking lunch (5 eggs) in natural hot spring (onsen) water in this tiny little mountain village called Yunomine Onsen 🤣

[storm cove]

Honestly in tokyo I haven’t found a yakiniku that was worth writing home about … apart from the 12k+ ones that isn’t what yore looking for

I just search on google ‘beef nearby’ lol

[sacred flame]

Ya even when I searched the yakiniku was costing more than 10k yen! Thought it was ridiculous!

[storm cove]

My favourite beef place is the steak rice bowl

Fuckin amazing

Sous vide steak with the biggest size being 2k lol

[pulsar wasp]

Where's that

[sacred flame]

Where is this ?

[storm cove]

Shibuya

Honestly I may even go there for the 4th time tonight

It’s that good

For value that is

[sacred flame]

Then shall I join you sen-pai!

😀

[storm cove]

Sure sure

[sacred flame]

https://maps.app.goo.gl/Cw3D8RtTB6gPFeLh9

This one ??

@storm cove

[storm cove]

Yup

[upbeat lark]

It’s very good. Worth the trip

[vestal topaz]

Ordered some food in Japanese and some random Japanese girl approached me afterwards and said where did I learn

It’s happening

Nihongo jouzed

[sacred flame]

I should learn something too ....

Yakiniku onigashimas

[vestal topaz]

I only know basic things like how to order and item amounts

But yeah I think it’s good to learn personally

You can impress the gajin hunters at the HUB

[wise lantern]

Hi. Where am I?

[lime inlet]

https://tenor.com/view/k-on-yui-hirasawa-mio-akiyama-tsumugi-kotobuki-ritsu-tainaka-gif-22045132

me omw there

[small hamlet]

Last night super fun in shibuyaa

[reef hazel]

Anyone been up on Shibuya Sky today and think it's worth going up? Got tickets for later but not sure how the view is (was meh yesterday with clouds)

[late ginkgo]

very fun lmao

wasn’t expecting to stay up until first train but it happened 🥴

[willow idol]

toyosato? :p

[wise lantern]

Yesss

I can't believe I'm here tbh

[willow idol]

(it was in the photo)

[ocean valley]

Mind if I join? Looks good

[tawdry crown]

@worn sluice @spiral latch @late ginkgo it is confirmed. We meet at 9pm at the location I sent you, and it will be for 2 hours.

[sacred flame]

Ofc , no problem !

[worn sluice]

Perfect! Just… where did u send the location? 🫣

[late ginkgo]

Ok cool, will be there

https://maps.app.goo.gl/LuDigLW58KAAxcTM6

[ionic wave]

@ocean valley try to go there early, queue gets bad on a weekend evening

[reef hazel]

What's the big thing about Akihibara. Just seemed ridiculously overcrowded on one street and a bit creepy with all the teen girls in costumes

[tawdry crown]

You don't know it is the anime capital of the world?

[reef hazel]

So overcrowded though

[alpine bison]

you should follow one of the girls, to challange your creepey assumptions

[reef hazel]

But maybe that's just cos it's Saturday

[alpine bison]

they can lead you to a nice bar, one drink only 5k yen

[reef hazel]

I assume as it's during the day, they're for maid cafes not bars?

[alpine bison]

mostly, yes

[tawdry crown]

For those of you who are interested in Pokemon. You can get this at mr donut near Asakusa station.

[alpine bison]

but both

[reef hazel]

Seemed kind of depressing. Everyone just walks past them like they don't exist

[alpine bison]

you should visit Okubo park

[lime inlet]

Well they are touts doing marketing

You can blank them like you do other advertisements

[reef hazel]

I still feel like politely saying I'm ok is better than pretending they don't exist

[alpine bison]

🙂

[reef hazel]

I did that before but collecting for charity and it doesn't feel good when people just ignore you completely

[alpine bison]

https://tenor.com/q44SDeldp3Y.gif

[storm cove]

Anyone else want to come to the beef bowl place

Do let us know

Or just ping me 😃

[tough storm]

I mean you're in Akihabara on a saturday.

Its a major shopping area + a huge tourist destination

[reef hazel]

Is it less ridiculous on a weekday?

[tough storm]

The main street is packed, but if you go 1-2 streets over, there's far less people.

[tough storm]

Yeah its less busy

[reef hazel]

Ya, found that. Can feel like a different city just walking down a parallel street as you see no one

[tough storm]

As for the maid cafe girls, they are basically just billboards. Its actually better that you ignore them if you aren't interested

If you acknowledge them and take up their time with absolutely no interest in going to the cafe, then you're just wasting their time

[reef hazel]

I just politely say I'm ok or give them a head nod and keep walking

Rather than ignoring them completely

[tough storm]

I just do a smile and a small head nod to decline and keep walking

[reef hazel]

Ya, that's what I do mostly. Lots just walk past or don't acknowledge and I know from doing charity collection how shite that feels

[tough storm]

As for Akihabara. You don't really go to Akihabara unless you're there to buy anime/game/PC stuff

The only time I really go there nowadays is for 2 shops

The e-earphone audio shop and the recofan vinyl shop

[pulsar wasp]

You know any shops in Akihabara that has a lot of pop up parade figures?

[tough storm]

Not really sorry. I don't really go shopping for that kind of stuff.

If you walk around the main street and some of the side streets, you'll find a ton of shops selling anime goods

but you'll also have to deal with heavily marked up prices

[slate laurel]

Yeah I wouldn't know what those figures look like either but you'll definitely not struggle to find some

[pulsar wasp]

Not having much luck finding pop up parade fate figures. I do commonly see the over priced stuff lol

[tough storm]

Yeah there's no real way to avoid it while you're in Tokyo

You either can go book off hunting which can consume a ton of time and have a lot of disappointment

or you have to search in another city

but you'd have to travel fairly far to get another major anime hub that has decent prices

[slate laurel]

Nakano is probably worth giving a look around too

[pulsar wasp]

Haven't been to nakano yet, probably check it tomorrow

[slate laurel]

Just the sheer amount of shops in a small location will help your chances of finding a specific type of figure

[vestal topaz]

Nakano and den den town gud

[meager bridge]

Anyone going to womb tonight ?

[ashen quail]

its at all mister donuts nation wide 🙂

[reef hazel]

So many people just be straight up sleeping on the trains here

Got like 5 in eyesight

[ashen quail]

Way better fate stuff than pop up parade at Nakano, youll be right

Only Akihabara stores really worth visiting are Jungle and Beep

[pulsar wasp]

That brands seems to be the best price to value compared to others

[ashen quail]

eh, theyre average

[pulsar wasp]

Wild how expensive figures are

I'm not willing to spend that much lol

[ashen quail]

I own the dynazenon ones, Id sooner opt for a scale for Fate over an inflated price crane game look alike

[slate laurel]

Different strokes

[ashen quail]

its well known that pop up parade is simply there to be a middle gap between crane game/banprestos and scales, and the only thing that adds to the price is the base

[pulsar wasp]

I see

Why are nendroids so expensive

[ashen quail]

Because nendroids are far more collectable and limited

[pulsar wasp]

Oh

[ashen quail]

plus you can pose + accesories

[pulsar wasp]

I've seen some fate ones going for like 8k

[ashen quail]

Kamen Rider SHF best value for quality always

though Ive spent a pretty penny on some in the past

This fella set me back a cool 23,000 yen

[pulsar wasp]

Damn

[ashen quail]

but its aight cause kamen rider is peak

[plain forge]

I’ll join in

[pulsar wasp]

What time you guys planning for the beef bowls

[sacred flame]

@plain forge @storm cove What time are you folks thinking ?

[storm cove]

I have no real time in mind tbh. Do you?

[versed star]

I don't think so!

[clear shore]

Hi! 36F solo traveler and first time to Japan! In Tokyo until Wednesday, would love to meet new friends while in town! 😄

[reef hazel]

These ones as I was up in Okubo on Thursday to get Korean food, so saw them already. Are they touts for maid bars or just straight up sex workers?

[alpine bison]

Yes

[worn sluice]

Guys, where is the pokemon center in shibuya? I’m freaking out up and down in the mall

😂

[reef hazel]

6th floor I think

[alpine bison]

What mall are you in

[reef hazel]

Assuming you're in the correct mall

There's a few I believe

[pulsar wasp]

All over Tokyo

[worn sluice]

The one with mewtwo i meant

[worn sluice]

Parko (?)

[pulsar wasp]

Parco

[worn sluice]

I’m going to the 6th floor

Found it

I love u ❤️

[alpine bison]

Don't catch them all at once

[worn sluice]

🥲 I’m afraid to end the budget of the rest of the trip 😂

[alpine bison]

Japanese economy appreciates your sacrifice

[idle roost]

Just do like me

Buy some packs on top of the other purchases and pull a big hit

[ocean valley]

I’m thinking 8

[lament bone]

@ocean valley do you mind if I join you guys?

[worn sluice]

What if I pull nothing ? 😂

[ocean valley]

Sure bro

[raw plinth]

tell us if you are exploring any areas

[ionic wave]

Mini stop chicken >>>>>> fami chiki

[ocean valley]

Damn I only pull up to mini stop when they out of chicken

[feral topaz]

Awesome! I fly tomorrow 😮 will check in on Monday~!

[sacred flame]

Its fine by me , but I have to start my travel accordingly. Let me know an hour before ,may be ??

[storm cove]

8 will be too late

It shuts at 9 and on Saturday night it’s too big a group

Going to be need to be 7-7:30

Probably

[ocean valley]

7-7:30 works too

[wise lantern]

That was so worth the visit

And it's so peaceful here. Why do I wanna go back to loud kyoto? LOL jks

[plain forge]

That works for me

[clear shore]

I am staying in Shinjuku and have been pretty much exploring only this area so far since arriving late last evening.

[raw plinth]

this whole chat stays in shinjuku

[upbeat lark]

Not all of us...

[raw plinth]

[shut flower]

[willow idol]

[errant swallow]

[storm cove]

Ppl for the beef bowl

Aim for 7 plz

[ashen quail]

visa hunting huh

[fair plume]

Well I ain't getting it on skill

[vestal topaz]

Spouse visa

Japanese waifu

[fair plume]

Literally met a swedish guy in his twentys in Osaka who married a Japanese girlie, they seemed very happy though

[raw plover]

What’s going on today? Anyone wanna go to teamlab planets and grab some food?

[alpine bison]

woah, a happy couple, that's a rare thing nowadays

[ashen quail]

When you meet genuinely, happiness

Otherwise you end up posting 5 years later on r/japanlife about how youre learning about the japanese divorce court system and cant see your kids

which seems to almost be a daily occurence on r/japanlife hahaha

[reef hazel]

Did they meet at Hub?

[alpine bison]

no, he just used the swedish pick up line

and it was supper effective

[ocean valley]

Oh yea shibuya might be better

[ocean valley]

Sure bro

[vestal topaz]

Japanese girls apparently cheat a lot

And so do the men

[chrome leaf]

I'm down to go to Shibuya if theres space for pool

[reef hazel]

Tbf do they cheat cos they think/know the other one does

And if they're in a relationship with no cheating, they might not

[ashen quail]

Average r/japanlife post

https://www.reddit.com/r/japanlife/comments/1gqxx1x/looking_for_family_court_info/

[vestal topaz]

Bros get me a space at pool I’m sat here fucking studying on a Saturday

[reef hazel]

Don't have kids, sorted

[alpine bison]

dont have wife, easier

[ashen quail]

but japan life is all about these posts

https://www.reddit.com/r/japanlife/comments/sfym8w/need_advice_after_finding_out_that_my_wife_cheated/

[cursive holly]

God damn this is a nice view

nice incinerator

[cursive holly]

Please don't upload that to wikifeet

[reef hazel]

It's raining 😞

[vestal topaz]

That first comment

😂😂

[alpine bison]

but I dont know, i feel like a lot of shit in r/japanlife is like the highlights of combini confessions

most relationships are somber

then there are these pretty vivid examples of how batshit insane some people are

problem is, there no americanlife subreddit for this kind of stuff

[ashen quail]

You gotta have a screw loose to share your relationship troubles on reddit to begin with

[alpine bison]

i mean, where else can i get free internet points ?

[worthy wadi]

I find it comical that people ask for relationship advice on Reddit

[alpine bison]

yeah, its easier to ask at the fortune tellers

[worthy wadi]

Or ask if they are being the asshole in a certain situation

[ocean valley]

https://discord.com/channels/440956791426383882/1307256642328330302

Made a thread for anyone who wants to play pool tonight

[plush basin]

I land in a couple hours then want to just find a food near my hotel in Shinjuku if anyone wants a later dinner

I’ll sleep after that though so might not be exciting. 🥹

This always happens, flying off on the day awesome bands play

[oak merlin]

Hi all, my gf and I are in Ginza tonight and tomorrow and are looking for some fun bars/groups in Shibuya/Golden Gai or anywhere else. Anyone going out tn?

[alpine bison]

everyone is

pool group for shibuya

and shinjuku should assemble later as well

there was also a beef bowl group for shibuya

[static acorn]

hoollyyy shiattt. If anyone is side-quest-onsen-chasing, no wonder Ryujin Onsen is considered one of the GOAT's 🤯 . When I got in the water, It was so slippery and silky smooth, I thought I might not have washed all the soap off me. Nope, its just how goated the water is. No wonder like Japanese Chad Athletes were just showing up for the day

out of the 4-5 onsens Ive been in so far, none have felt like that

[tough storm]

Yeah this post is less "get a cool job" and more "make actual money"

English teachers rarely make good money. They also often have to live in much cheaper areas.

[alpine bison]

you need to make a post on where to find cool money people around tokyo

[tough storm]

Haha

[static acorn]

If she thought that why did they marry to begin with?

[tough storm]

The few foreigners I know who live in Korea and Japan, they usually work in tech industries to make good money

[reef hazel]

Halfway down that thread in one of the responses, I'm like that guys girlfriend was raped

Odd thread

[ashen quail]

Yeah Im aggresively chasing a remote job so I dont have to work my part time (full time hours) job for a long while

[weary garden]

Anyone in Kyoto wanna grab some drinks?

[tough storm]

Yeah I have a friend who moved from Texas to Korea to work as a project manager for a tech startup. He's jumped a few companies since then, but he's doing pretty well over there now.

Makes 6 figures USD, which in Korea is absolutely amazing

[alpine bison]

let me check, visa situation for korean nomads

[tough storm]

He says he makes slightly less money than where he would be had he stayed in the USA

but his cost of living is like 30-40% of what it was in the USA

[reef hazel]

Need to earn more than 65k I think

[alpine bison]

ok, so not much

[tough storm]

So he's spending way less money, he's making good money, and he's mentally much better off

[alpine bison]

looking at k-pop bands all the time, definitely
