how expensive would it be to move to Tokyo Japan from east coast US?
i live in upstate new york and i badly want to move to Tokyo Japan, i currently live with my parents so i dont have much just entertainment stuff and clothes id leave my bed and shelves behind so itll be a small moving load. how much would everything cost? anything helps.
Wow that would be fun to move there. I lived in Japan for 5 years. First off like the earlier people it is quite expensive to ship stuff. My wife paid around a hundred dollars for small boxes going to japan via seamail. However, that was from japan to the states. So the less you can bring the better. Plane tickets could probobly be gotten for around a 900 dollars from east coast. Your next step would be to look up housing. I would reccomend avoiding staying in a hotel unless it is just for a day or two as hotels can run around 120-150 dollars and up from that even for a small room. Second Tokyo is SOOOOOOOOOOOO expensive for housing. So you would be better off living about half an hour away by train. The next thing that you will have to deal with is immagration. Now if you want to go there for a short time you could probobly get away with staying there 90 days without having to do anything. My friend there he stayed past that and married a J/N which that helped him get a working permit but nothing states that the government has to give you legal status to stay in the country. But like here in the states people do stay past there allotted amount of time. Just be forewarned it will reflect negativly on your status when you try to make yourself legal. If you have any type of two year degree you could work as a english teacher for any of the numerous schools in the tokyo area. Some of them even provide housing. Not great but it is okay. However there is a language gap. Not everyone speaks English and sometimes those that do will not always let on that they do. The first thing is i would suggest is a vacation to make sure that it is really something you would enjoy. My first six months i was missing my family as i moved there at the age of 18. However since i am in the Navy i avoided alot of the drama that you will experiance Good Luck….I LOVE JAPAN
