Assuming you have a job, a few ideas of where you could stay are: **Live in the suburbs or Western Tokyo and commute into Tokyo -- rents are a bit cheaper the farther out you go, although your commute cost will rise. **Find a roommate and share the rent -- check one of the English language weekly publications, where people usually advertise. One example is http://www.metropolis.co.jp/default.asp. **Find a host family. This website has links to get you started. http://gojapan.about.com/cs/traveltools/... Have fun in Japan!
Dude, don t do it! japan sucks!
A park bench, I was going to say a cardboard box in the park, but a cardboard box costs money to buy. Homeless people have blue tarps they use as well. You can t simply move over to Japan, you need a job offer first, plus you need a bachelors degree in order to qualify for a work visa. Sometimes employers might have accommodation other times not, depends on the details of your contract. Getting a job in Japan other then language teaching is not easy walk in the park either. Do you read, write and speak Japanese fluently on top of having skills above and beyond that of the average Japanese person? Heck even english teaching in Japan is not what it used to be. Read about the NOVA language school collapse leaving hundreds of english teachers out of the job. Just google it.
Are you sure you want Tokyo in particular? If not, most of the rest of Japan is much cheaper. It depends what you can take. Tokyo is just not cheap for accomodation, unless you want to quot;blue tentquot; it. (Live in a park under a blue tarp). However, you can make lots of dough teaching English. Just don t party too much. You ll end up a better teacher, a better person in general, and you ll have a better place to stay. The question is, how are you planning to get your foot in the door? Once you re there, things change. You ll see more opportunities.
