I’d love to move and could probably swing it but I have a lot of pets that cannot cross the country. I have made a lifetime commitment to them so until they pass I will not leave. When I do will be to Japan or Uruguay. I have no problem learning languages quickly. I just can’t leave these animals behind.
they do like white westerners though, especially the ones that have money, or they are married toa japanese spouse. im guessing if you’re an asian, you can blend in more easier.
To visit. Immigrating is a whole other thing - this BBC retrospective paints a pretty clear picture in the section about the village. I remember reading an account of somebody that’s been going to the same corner store run by the same guy for decades, but who still gets followed around because “foreigners commit crime”.
Looking Asian might make it worse if anything, because Japan has less than awesome relations with other Asian countries, and some of them come with a poverty stigma.

What’s your plan to get into Japan? It’s not a place that likes immigration.
