When I started my English teaching job, I was making around $35-40k a year and living surprisingly comfortably
I had a relationship, was able to travel all over the country and do little weekend trips and activities with friends, was able to buy new games, go to work drinking parties, have crazy nights out in Kabukicho, etc
It’s all amazingly affordable and you pretty much get a good dining/drinking/activity experience everywhere because of generally higher standards.
People meme “THING BUT JAPAN BASEDFACE” all the time but it’s legitimately better over there as long as you maintain a social life (which is very easy if you aren’t absolutely ugly and/or an autist).
The country has so much to offer, each city and region is very different aesthetically and culturally so you’ll never get bored of the same places, and the people are all welcoming and fun whether you’re out drinking or just doing something social like hiking (again, assuming you aren’t a complete failure).
The only thing truly holding you back is lack of language, but you can learn reasonably quickly, or enough to get by and enjoy yourself.
If you’re an attractive WHITE foreigner who has a good grasp of the language, it will be your paradise because women will fawn over you, jobs will be offered to you, and you will generally enjoy a great life.
Japan is only xenophobic to other Asians, blacks, browns, and ugly people.
