For a while now, this website has contained a bit of information about living and working in Japan. I have now redesigned and updated it, so I hope it’s now easier to use and to find whatever you’re looking for.

I plan to keep the website updated with current links and information on living and working in Japan and learning Japanese, so if there’s something you can’t find, please leave a comment and I will try to address it.
