Moving to Japan confirmed

Got the job I went to Japan for. So I guess I'll be moving to Japan in a couple of months(unless my visa gets declined for some reason).

Took a few pictures while I was in Tokyo.

@Justin: I think programmer/IT jobs are easy to find pretty much anywhere. IT professionals who speak fluent English is especially in high demand in financial institutions in Japan.

It's a shame you've written nothing about yourself on the FAQ page, I'd love to learn more. But then again, it's better to ask you directly

@Anonymous: well... that's because no one asked, so it's not really a "frequently asked question". Cool

Ganbare yo Lu-dono! I can meet you! My girlfriend lives in Yokohama which is about a half hour train ride from tokyo. I moved down here and learned Japanese before hand, I speak it quite fluently but am I ever happy to be able to speak fluent english with great confidence, the respect I get for speaking this mut language is astonishing! The people in Japan are so admirable. I currently work as a programmer as well, working mostly with the .net framework and C# for a financial institute. We should perhaps meet one time, have some Sushi and sake? You do drink right? It will be fun. Good to see a familiar face from time to time :)

Send me an email, don't use my japanese one, send it to saif.aldin@hotmail.com
