Hi everyone,
In this video I am exploring how Japan is an amazing destination for digital nomads who are on a moderate or tight budget.
We will see how Japan is the new best destination for digital nomads, through exploring the cost of life in Japan.
If you are moving to Japan and want to know how much does it cost to live in Japan, or how much does it cost to live in Tokyo, hopefully this video can give you an idea about the average monthly cost for living in Japan for someone like me who is moving to Tokyo on a budget.
You will see the cost of rent in Tokyo, Japan, the cost of food in Japan, the cost of transportation in Tokyo, and the cost of shopping on a budget.
Hopefully after watching this video, you will want to visit Japan and travel to Tokyo to discover for yourself this amazing country, and you will realize that Japan is very affordable.

Guy casually drops that he has a brother living in Japan. No biggie.
Lol it does help to have fam who knows the place but I really spent most of my time on my own and did everything by myself. My brother came in clutch with the Landlord tho
Bro, missed my Japan trip because my passport is still missing 😢😂. Hope you continue to upload more vids. Been idle for a while but now back for more
Same bro. My mext video will be from manila rooftop
Great vidéo editing, as always... 👏👏👏🌈🌙
thank you my dear #1 fan!!
What about language challenges? Do you speak Japanese? Are there signs in English? If not, how do you order food in a restaurant? shop at the grocery (i.e. read the labels to know exactly what you're buying)? know which train to take? Do they have map booklets of the city, the way London does - so you can get around and know where you're going? Are these in different languages, especially English?
I do not speak Japanese. There is very little English written or spoken except in touristy areas. I often use google translate and literally show my phone to staff at supermarkets who are always SUPER helpful and go above and beyond to help me find what I need. I use translate-camera on ingredients lists and store labels. As for the train, google maps directions tells me what station and platform to take, and the ticket machines have English option. At restaurants I often point at pictures 😂 but waiters understand basics like "small/ medium/ large" and I often eat at Sushi places where you order with a tablet which has English option...etc just jump in with both feet and don't be afraid, you will make it. I will make another video about living in Japan without speaking Japanese. Cheers 😊
@@badrtravels Thanks! Can you also do a video comparing Bali and Japan - for digital nomads? With pros and cons for both?
@@TheVeritie great idea!
Hi, great video, thanks! Would love to rent a similar studio like you mentioned in the video. Could you provide more details?
Look for Leopalace
Is internet included in your rent? How about electricity? Thx
Amazing video
Can you link to the studio listing please?
Look for LEOPALACE tokyo. They have a website and they also post on Facebook. Look for Japan expats groups and Japan rental groups.
Hey! How hard to rent from that website you shared? Im going to Japan in this year as digital nomad. Still researching for accommodation. Apparently Airbnb is rather expensive and not fully finished. Preferable internet included.
Depends on the Landlord. If you have a friend in Japan who can call for you and speak Japanese it will help you 100x!
Great content! Which visa should I apply to work as Digital Nomad?
They are changing the laws this year. Please look for the digital nomad visa, or the work visa.
@@badrtravels work visa is for japan jobs only
Which visa you apply as a digital nomad ?
So far I only wanted to test what life was like there, so I stayed for only 90 days.
But I am thinking of applying for a work visa which needs a sponsorship, and I found many English-teaching schools that can sponsor me.
@@badrtravels good luck 👍 but i am dogital nomad as a forex trader ... i earn 10k dollars to 13k dollars per month ... what visa will you suggest for me ?? I think business manager is only option for me now 🤔
@@trendyshort_ in your case I would recommend talking with a visa agency about the Startup visa, or the working holiday visa.
@@badrtravels at first i have considered about student visa to learn Japanese language but then many people say if u send large money to your home country in your student visa then there will be problem in visa extension
@@trendyshort_ I also heard about certain rules, which is why it is important to speak to a Visa Specialist.
Hi,
you mentioned your brother helped you with getting some stuff sorted out there. Did you apply for a tourist visa with guarantor? Is it legal to work for your company back home while on a tourist visa in Japan? I can't find any reliable resources on this, so some firsthand info would be great to have. I am planning a trip for 90 days, but not sure which visa i should apply for.
I only stayed for 90 days which was allowed by my american passport however if you would like to stay there you should research the visa options, as i have not researched all the options except the visa where you are sponsored by a japanese employer for a year or two
Text me on ig @tamethewolf
@@badrtravels Do you mean that for 90 days and under it should be fine? or for the tourist visa?
@@badrtravels Thanks for the reply! So do you mean that for 90 days and under it should be fine to work for me to work remotely? I'm kind of asking from a Japan's legal perspective for a tourist.
@@badrtravels I would like to know this too, if you can legally work remotely with a tourist visa?
Can’t you only stay in Japan for 3 months though? And you’re not really supposed to work on it? It’s my dream to live in Japan and I’ve been learning the language but hard with a remote job.
Yes I spent 3 months to try how I like living here. The plan was to find a sponsorship for a long term visa, but I decided to keep travelling for now. I will definitely come back to Japan at some point on a sposor contract of 1-2 years and take it from there. And yes the language is hard man.... but doable if you apply yourself
wow that's pretty cheap, especially compared to here
I know. Japan is way cheaper than the US
❤️❤️❤️
😊👍

Lol, rooms like in a russian prison
how do you know? lmao.
Probably more like a Norwegian prison.
