@Karl with a K what channel mike comes from?

@Karl with a K his what

Do you happen to know which language school and housing company he was talking about?:) Specially the housing situation sounded like a good deal! Thanks!:)

Where you live sir

We love Japan! It is so clean and safe.

we all want to!, but its sooo damn far away 🤣

You're so lucky man! Living in Nippon is my dream...

Absolutely! I'm excited to move

✋

That is exactly why I'm here watching this. America is looking scary right now.

This is very helpful info. What neighborhoods would you recommend staying in?

Very interesting. What kind of temptations?

Healt insurance 75 month? In USA it's 500+ per month and still not covered fully. Usa is such a ridiculous country. Japan❤❤❤

And he's very cute to watch

@@putjesusfirst9814 love your channel name, God bless you ✝️❤️💜

Lord Jesus Christ is coming back everyone, please don’t worship celebrities and entertainment, focus on Him alone. I promise there’s more to life than money, partying, homosexuality and music. Hell is real, repent from sinning confess your sins and ask God to forgive you, I know He will if you’re sincere. Anyone who thinks the Name of Lord Jesus Christ is a joke, boldly mocks and scorns Him or takes pleasure in people who do is in for a big unpleasant surprise on judgement day IF they don’t repent and follow Lord Jesus Christ. Hell is very hot, people please repent! In the mighty name of Lord Jesus Christ, Amen 🙏💪✝️💜❤️✝️! Idolatry such as, Islam, Catholicism, Sangomaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Santa Clausism, Confucianism, New Age, Science, Evolution, halloweenism, Harry Potterism, Politics, Donald Trumpism, Easter Bunnyism and other religions/faiths that are outside Biblical Christianity lead to hell! Don’t believe them, believe the Almighty God the Father of Lord Jesus Christ, who begot Him. Our Creator, The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is mighty, He doesn’t need a woman to beget a son, He is God. I choose to put my faith in a God who can do anything and everything, a God who has unlimited and infinite power to beget! So, it’s time to confess that Lord Jesus Christ is the Lord and to believe that He died and rose from the grave after three days and you shall be saved if you only obey Him by praying, worshipping, praising, reading the Bible and living holy and righteously according to the Bible. You have to endure until the end, carry your cross daily and build your relationship with God by following Lord Jesus daily until the end. You must never renounce your faith in The Lord Jesus Christ, there’s hell awaiting those who reject/deny Lord Jesus Christ and those who continue living sinfully, even the Christians who don’t want to repent will face the same fate, so please repent beloved people, in Lord Jesus Christ’s mighty and precious Name, Amen.

depends. you can get airbnb per month in tokyo for about $500-1000 average being just under 900 usd. if you are only doing like a week or so for first trip, I'd recommend minimum 9 days. hotels you can find smaller ones about $45 a night you can find places just outside of tokyo like chiba for cheap weekly around a few hundred. if you want to visit Kyoto as well you'd want more than 9 days. and should stay in Osaka, can find monthly airbnb for about $450. flying between osaka-tokyo will be about $45 and a shinkasen will cost about $110 one way. food and entertainment will be probably be biggest cost outside of that. food isn't expensive. breakfast and lunch you can get under $5 a meal easily, but eating at nicer restaurants will cost you more. going out at night entry to a nightclub is about $10-$20 depending on if you are going before about 11:00pm/happy hour or after and if you are male or female. drinks are typically about $5. you can drink on the streets so best to pre-game by getting a cheap strong zero from konbini store before about $1. then train tickets to get around will cost about $2 each way. don't recommend taxis at all. so solo person for a 1-2 week trip with souvenirs etc. about $2000 is plenty. less if you are going with more and will split cost of hotel/airbnb

It depends where you're coming from for how expensive the plane ticket will be. But I would recommend saving between 3k(if you're gonna be frugal) -5k(if you want to buy lots of souvenir). From where I live, the plane ticket is like $1500usd round trip. So it's a large portion of expense for me.

A comfortable amount is $3k excluding the plane ticket, a luxurious experience should bring $5k onward. Food being cheaper is a myth, unhealthy options are cheaper (however still good) and staying at nice places is really underrated, a good place to sleep without too much noise and too little space is better for you mentally. I feel like the local crowd would really be all over the place if he interviewed with how much should be saved for a trip to Japan but its good idea for more content!

How much should you save up if you plan to stay for one month, and to stay in multiple cities like Tokyo, Kyoto?

It’s difficult to interview “travellers” as the borders are (almost) close. It’s not easy to get the VISA for travelling to Japan right now due to covid 🥹.

@@nubscrub J'avoue qu'à 5$ il n'y a pas vraiment d'autre option! Valentine peut-être... 🤣

Un bon hotdog 😂

A Japanese person getting a tattoo is so rare because they are considered a taboo right? In the US, tattoos are so common that even my grandparents have them lol

Sure I'll subscribe Takashii. I always watch your all videos. You are doing great job. These videos helped me a lot to know about Japan. I really like Japaneese culture and want to be there with my daughter. But I think for single parent , survival will be difficult. I don't know how safe are girls and kids there. If you can make videos on these topics I'll really appreciate. Last not the least I really like the way you speak and gestures to give ❤

love you^^😘❤

I'm surprised that he asked her were part of Canada she from

Nice, sounds fun! Can't wait for the new channel

Ciao, sono Veneto, volevo sapere se non sono troppo invadente, quanto ti hanno richiesto più o meno nel conto bancario per restare 6 mesi. Grazie in anticipo anche se non rispondi:)

Well done buddy, HAVE FUN

@@Shardmind seguo anche io!

oh i rather watch youtube videos then lol way to expensive 🫰

@@Shardmind per caso sei riusciuto a leggere la mia risposta?

Hi David. How old? What made you decide on that school? I’m late thirties and wondering how I could realistically spend time in Japan beyond just being a tourist.

do you plan on living there rest of your life?

I was going to turn on that notification bell on but realized I already did 😅 I gained a lot of perspectives from binging his videos this past week (and others as well).

Problably more now to live in the U.S. than Tokyo today. From what I hear from family back in the U.S. it's became ridicously expensive.

​@@CL-gv2fxhousing prices are for sure the kicker. lots of places right now (even in the better states) start at 1k a month min and typically are more around 2-3k. Most housing values have double over the last couple years so property taxes, mortgages, and rents have gone up accordingly. hopefully the bubble pops before it gets too bad.

It does. More so 23 years ago (they paid for your flight to Japan and return if you didn’t find another job)… but still CLAIR gives an orientation and your local office will probably give additional orientation and help with finding housing. Some places may even arrange for free housing (as typical on JET… YMMV). It’s a great experience!

My apartment in buttfuck Oklahoma is smaller than a 2 car garage and I pay $650 plus my energy bill is average 180 from my ac unit. Gas is 5 dollars a gallon and a coffee is 8 bucks.I’ll sell my shit for a plane ticket, I’m moving to Japan fuck this

That's sounds troublesome but is it worth it in your opinion ?

@@syrupuusabc5774 Just learn Japanese and look up shared room in Japanese to rent with Japanese roommates. If you get lucky, you just need to pay the rent upfront . That's it.

@@user-ul5wq3kv4p nah lol. I’ll learn Japanese but I’ll happily pay much more to not have roommates. Pass

You could probably do it a lot cheaper going with long stay apartment places like Sakura House to start off while getting yourself settled. They have no issue letting to anyone for as long as you need and don't require a huge deposit.

Hey είσαι Ελληνίδα ? αμα χρειαστείς βοήθεια με κάτι πες μου.

Heyhey!! Ναι Ελληνίδα, πριν κάποιους μήνες μετακόμισα Όσακα. :) Ευχαριστώ, και εσύ αν χρειαστείς καμιά βοήθεια με οτιδήποτε μπορώ να βοηθήσω. Έχεις γνωρίσει κανένα άλλο άτομο από Ελλάδα στη Ιαπωνία;

@@danail.1188 Αα είσαι Οσάκα? Θα ήθελα να την επισκεφτώ κάποια στιγμή. Ναι γνώρισα 2-3 άτομα αλλά δεν ήταν για πολλα πολλά χαχα. Το Ινσταγκραμ μου είναι Μαϊκ Καραβάκης, στα αγγλικά όμως, άμα θες κανε με add εκεί. Οπότε άμα κάποια στιγμή έρθεις προς Τόκιο και θες βοήθεια με κάτι να μπορούμε να επικοινωνήσουμε. 😁

Τουλάχιστον αυτό, εδώ δεν έχω συναντήσει Έλληνες, όχι πως είμαι και πολύ καιρό εδώ. Ωραία θα σε κάνω εκεί add. :)

I think the video had a more financially focused purpose.

How "little"? 10 to 25 thousand is "little"? Okay Mr. Moneybags. Whatever.

@@dustinwatkins7843 If you live in certain places in the states? Yeah. Unfortunately. If anything that’s nowhere near enough sometimes…..

​@@dustinwatkins7843sadly, especially if you end up near a major city, rent is 2-3k min in my state (not always including utilities). if you don't have a job that's set in stone or helping you relocate then 10k will run out in no time once you include costs for food, transport, and possibly recreation.

If they let you enter, I'll probably try in 2 years

it all the depens on the city/accommodation some school it more expensive then other

Only 6 months?! Idk if that’ll actually work, depending on what your plan is. Most work contracts (like for language school teaching) last for a year.

How did you find the school that you are going to?

Yeah this has been my perspective as well, seems by design tbh

you are not wrong hah...the only other option is working holiday visa but that may also not be available for you, depending on your country and your age.

@@chardrive i think so to

They say you can buy abandoned houses in japan for only 500 dollars in the countryside.

@@xelou1947 yes you can but you don't live alone and you will often hear a footsteps at night

im here. i feel u. good experience. bad on the wallet.

You moved into a place without furnishings? 6k in one month? You're a fool with money.

I don't get what kind of jobs do ppl do in US and how much do they get payed to afford 4k just for an apartment, crazy difference in standards.

It's all relative, depending on which comparison you choose.

what do you do to afford that rent price?

@@muzammilhalimov Have rich parents

Average japanese people don't be making LA type of money bro...

@Karl with a K Haha yes. I'm on my way to Japan now 😆

@Karl with a K Whoops I am late, its been 6 days! That's how long it takes from the UK lol and I'm still not there yet!
