Just some guy living in Japan
I Spent 14 Days Traveling Japan (with a first time visitor)
Japan has so much to offer, especially for first time visitors. When my cousin came to visit, I was excited to introduce him to some of Japan's most iconic destinations. We explored three of Japan's must-see destinations: Hiroshima, Kyoto, and Hakone. Despite living in Japan for six years, it was also my first time visiting both Hiroshima and Hakone, so I had the chance to be a tourist again!

Filming a JAPANESE MALL with a 90's Camcorder
Просмотров 2 тыс.21 день назад
Japan is one busy country and Japanese shopping malls are like theme parks - always busy with plenty to see and do. So when I picked up a 1999 camcorder, I knew it was my destiny to use it at my local mall. Outside of shopping, there are always so many things to do. We visited the Pokemon Center (and maybe bought several Pokemon plushies), held some puppies, stumbled across an anime cosplay con...

Japan is one of the best countries in the world for motorcycle touring - beautiful countrysides, excellent road conditions and awesome bikes! So when I moved to Japan, I made it a goal of mine to learn how to ride a motorcycle. After completing Japanese driving school and getting my license, I have been renting various bikes in order to help me decide which one I'd like to buy. So buckle up (oh...

Is Japan Entering a Digital Renaissance?
Просмотров 1,8 тыс.5 месяцев назад
Many of us envision Japan as a technological utopia, adorned with cutting-edge innovations and quirky tech wonders. However, the reality might surprise you. In 2023, the futuristic dreamland we often imagine falls short of the mark. While cities like Tokyo may appear advanced on the surface, the truth is that the foundation of constant innovation is not as solid as it seems. In this video, we d...

1989: The End of Japan's Greatest Party
Просмотров 11 тыс.Год назад
During the 1980’s, Japan was a country in the midst of a giant bubble economy. It was a time of unprecedented growth and prosperity. Stocks were constantly in the green. Real estate prices were high. Just about everyone was able to make money in one way or another, and people were not afraid to spend their hard earned cash. It was a kingdom of wealth and a time of prosperity, optimism and eupho...

New sub !
Thanks! Hope to see you around more 🤝
What a gorgeous apartment! Just shows how much the west is a complete rip off lol
Applied for the data center ops trainee in Tokyo/Osaka and denied within a week, no interview even. I have a decent bit of exp in tech, I did apply from overseas though
I think timing plays a big role too. Sometimes the job has already been filled but the advert is still up. I wouldn’t give up though, there’s going to be so much expansion in the coming 5-10 years in the DC industry in Japan. It’s very early days still. You got this
@@Retro-Japan Thanks, I ended up reaching out to a recruiter for now to try and get into the country while remaining in tech. Hoping for the best
The view is so beautiful. Wish I could go there someday
yea but sure you need to proficient in the language. I mean whimsical things come to even my mind, but japan is another world.
There’s plenty of people I’ve worked with that can’t speak a word of Japanese. Personally I would encourage anyone who wants to live in Japan to learn Japanese but it’s not a requirement
you dont mention anything about the facility maintenance side, is it harder to get into or are you just not as familiar with it?
It’s mainly because facility maintenance requires Japanese and usually some kind of mechanical engineering experience depending on the place. Most of those teams are made up of Japanese. Also, I’m not entirely sure I would class facility maintenance as an IT job either
The BG music is disgustingly distracting.
Sorry
If only I get a passport Japan is what I recall
I would like an appointment like that
I am going to Japan for a year as an ALT, do you think these kind of jobs would give out a visa for someone who has lived in japan for a year but needs to be sponsored again?
It’s exactly what I did mate
Cut the music hard to hear you properly
Sorry mate, can’t change it now unfortunately
@@Retro-Japan ok thanks mate , ill get a hearing aid to help me 🤣
@@iaind3185 crack up 🤣
Wow. I’m studying to be a devops engineer at the moment… I wonder if this path would be good for me to get into Japan.
You need experience.....
You don’t need any experience, especially for the trainee positions. Getting certifications can help but those are not equivalent to experience. When I got my first dc job I didn’t have experience or certifications
Great video, thank you for sharing! Can you offer more insight on Working Holiday Visas since you mention a "transition". I live in a country that has a working holiday visa program with Japan but the thing is they ask you to return after 1 year without being able to extend your visa or change it, so did you mean by transition as being from a country where you are actually able to change visas after 1 year? Additionally, I'm currently working as a Security Analyst remotely for a North American SOC (I speak Spanish and English on a native level and I'm starting to learn japanese now), so my question is: Do you think it's as easy to land a Cybersec job there?
Perhaps it’s different depending on the country. I know a few people that were on working holiday visas and then ended up finding full time employment and got a visa change
Be honest, were you able to keep the front wheel down for the entire trip or did you edit out a cheeky little nooner here and there?
👀
We're working 90 hours a weeks with this one bois!
Not in foreign companies 😎 40 hours no overtime 🤝
My dream 🤩
I'm a mobile software developer do you know if it is possible to find a job in japan without japanese? 🤔
Dang this is a super nice place for $500! Makes me question my decision to live in central Tokyo for double the cost and a smaller place haha
I guess it depends on several factors such as work location and personal preferences. Personally, I like to have access to Tokyo but I prefer having more living space in a quieter area so it works well. Maybe 5 years ago I would have chosen a box in central Tokyo for the same price though haha
Where in Japan is this apartment ? And what agency did you go through ?
It’s along the keisei line. Didn’t go through an agency either I got a direct referral from a friend living in the building opposite (an older iteration) and they put me through to the owner. Got pretty lucky as it was one of the last rooms available
@@Retro-Japan thx 🙏, tech guy here and I’ve been looking to eventually go overseas as America’s housing / rent crisis is bad like the UK
You are Living the dream! Hoping to be in japan in the next 6 months!!
Thanks for watching mate, best of luck with your Japan trip/visit/move 🤝
Im so jealous but atleast i can enjoy japan from your perspective, many more fun adventures 🎉
Thanks for watching mate 🤝 I hope you get the chance to experience it for yourself at some point as well!
Love the spoken content of the video. Background music soundtrack is far too loud, very distracting. Thank you for the information.
I love baked beans. That’s why I’m here.❤
I miss them everyday!
Your channel is so inspiring. I'm working to get a working holiday visa next year. Thanks for these amazing videos
It’s only the morning here in Japan but you’ve already made my day 🤝 thanks for watching. Best of luck with getting that visa, I’m sure you will ✌️
This deserves so much more views! Feels like OG aboard in japan. Great job and keep at it 👌
Thanks for watching mate!
Jealous. Really want to visit Japan!
Very helpful. I'm going for it, wish me luck.
Best of luck mate!
This might make japan more multicultural not sure if thats a good or bad thing
Wish I could live there. It's the perfect place to settle down and enjoy life. I'm trying to get into IT so one day I can move to Japan and enjoy happy life. If the company I work for doesn't overwork me to death that is.
Of course it’s not perfect in Japan as is the same everywhere but it’s a very pleasant country to live in. Best of luck with your goals!
I think one of the main reasons why Japan as a whole is behind on the technology and why their websites look like they were created on Geocities, is because most Japanese don't know enough English to program in latest codes, which are primarily English based.
Also because software development is really undervalued here and many Japanese companies pay software engineers the same amount as English teachers
Freaking awesome video man!!!
Thanks buddy!
My spidey-sense tingled when I saw the thumbnail, and knew it had to do with cloud computing. This is one of the dangers of falling down the Linux personal research rabbit hole. You may just find yourself with a fun IT job...
外資のIT企業なら、言葉の問題も無いし、賃金も日本式の低い水準じゃないからいいんじゃないのかな。
日本人にとってもいいと思う。特に新卒の場合、給料が多くの日本企業よりも高いことが多いし、残業もなくて、好きなときに有休を使ってもいい
Chocado, achei super barato pelo tamanho e localizacao o.o
obrigado por assistir ✌️
Only America looks like concentration camp
stop adding dogshit music so it can be watchable in 2x
Stellar video! I have some feedback about the video, it might be only me but the music is overpowering your voice which makes it difficult to understand. keep up the good work!
Don’t worry you aren’t the only one😅Thanks for watching though glad you found it helpful! 🤝
My favourite noodle
Commenting again for the algo :)
Great video once again. You have the rare combination talent of charisma, filmmaking and music selection. You definitely have a future as a RUclipsr should you so choose. Looking forward to the next one.
Very kind words. Glad you enjoyed the video and your support is always appreciated. Next video should hopefully be out this weekend ✌️
Being a weeaboo helps a lot.
There's also the dark chocolate web
Sounds delicious 🍫
as someone who has the JLPT N1 and is currently learning programming, this video gave me motivation to change to data science 🤣
Great info! It would be nice if you continue to create videos about IT in Japan.
I mean, it's good if you have no career and you want to start. For myself as an IT Professional this salary is a joke. And the bad thing is that I earn as normal employee as much as a senior manager in such a data cente. At least I assume it. I checked several job offers for my profession (Test Automation Engineer) and they offer around 7.000.000 bis 9.000.000 Yen/year and I earn twice as much. I'm not even a senior though. I would only move to Japan as a business owner.
It’s a fair point. When moving to Japan you have to take into consideration how far the money goes. Even my current position pays much more back in my home country, but if I was there I wouldn’t be able to buy a house, see a doctor and everything else is far more expensive.
