Hi everyone,
I am currently in Japan, visiting from Southern California. I am a female in my early twenties, almost reaching the mid-twenties benchmark. I recently graduated college to become an elementary teacher, receiving my bachelor's degree; however, I always knew I wanted to move to Japan. Now that I am here, that desire has thoroughly been solidified. The thing is, I recently got accepted to nursing school to become a BSN RN. It is a 3-year accelerated program, but the student loans at the end will be roughly 90K (USD). I am not worried about the loans since Registered Nurses are paid well in California. I am just wondering if there is any use in obtaining my nursing degree and getting into a lot of student debt to move to Japan and not be able to practice nursing. Or am I just wasting my time getting into nursing student debt to move to Japan?? I fear I will regret moving to Japan and miss a great opportunity: nursing school. Am I being too impulsive by wanting to drop everything and move to Japan? Should I go through nursing school and slowly pay off my student loans while taking vacations here and there to Japan? How did you guys move to Japan? What do you do for work? 😣🥺
