I need to move to Japan π
Discussion
Please do! Itβs not perfect, but I love it here ππ«
You lived there your whole life?
Almost
Cool, I kinda want to try living in another country in general.
do it before you get too old
I went for 5 years a lifetime ago.
I would probably never do it if i waited until now
now i sit in my rocking chair scrolling nostr zapping plebs π
Yeah, good point.
What he said, and what I replied in a longer form πππ
(I lived in 3 countries so far, but not wanting to move anymore)
Is it hard to obtain a visa?
everything is hard until you figure out the best way to do it :)
Yep, if there is a will, there is a way! π
I did go through the process on behalf of my cousin from an Eastern European country to north america back in the early 90s, it was a disaster, rejected the first 2 times, and third time family member sabotage. Tried a 4th time with his younger brother and worked on the first attempt.
The purpose of the application and interview is to determine if they can see any reason that you would not return to your country of origin when the visa expires.
So its a good idea that if you are making up an imaginary storey that you have all the made up documents to support the story as fact.
Its best if you are honest and want to attend some program, but you can prove that you can cover all of your own expenses, you might have to show bank account balances, any supporting friends or family that already live in that country, maybe you can zap a nostr pleb! (just kidding, i dont want anyone to get in trouble with the law).
But my point is this a project you have to launch seriously and work hard on to make sure it will be success. Otherwise you are wasting your time and money and happiness.
yeah after moving 12 times throughout 15 years in 7 countries and finally owning a house attached to an endless field surrounded by quiet and silence, working from home and zapping.
I think im good now.
Would I do it all over again if I could go back in time and be that young again? HELL YES!

LFG! This is the way! We live only once, might as well enjoy to the fullest extent ππ₯
Ok, here is a little secret for you! Stop wanting and start taking actions and making progress towards your wants and needs. You ainβt getting younger, and youβll remember all your coulda/shoulda on your death bed with a lot of regrets. Nobody regretted taking and action, only all the missed opportunities and inactions π«‘
