hey guys! so i’m at a last resort asking here since doing research has scared me away from wanting to move to japan.
my boyfriend has had a a dream of moving to japan. and now that i’ve been watching shows and movies and just overall love the aesthetic of japan i’ve also been wanting to move too.
however i currently live in MN and have been raised in the UP of MI, so bugs and spiders aren’t really a huge issue. i have a FEAR and i mean genuine feels like a deathly FEAR of spiders and roaches and just anything like that in my space. if its outside, i can ignore it. i can avoid it and let it be. the fact there’s japanese huntsman, mega cockroaches, giant killer centepedes and “murder” hornets, im very scared and discouraged from wanting to move. can someone please tell me how realistic it is to see a huntsman or a very large spider in your apartments/homes ? i want to make this dream happen. i’m so so scared my fear will get in the way of what i and my boyfriend truly has wanted.
and can someone also please let me know how bad the fat shaming, sexism or assist is? i’m not a fat person by any means but i could definitely be considered it in japan since im 5’3 and 127 lbs. and i also just have a worry of discrimination for being a foreigner, a woman, and someone who doesn’t meet the beauty standards of being skinny.
TLDR: how bad are the spiders and bugs? i’m talking any at all to very BIG ones. also how bad is the sexism, fat shaming and discrimination from being a foreigner? i want to make a living after i make my name streaming and im just scared i wont even be able to find an apartment, or decent job with all of these issues
sorry for all the questions but i just have. a lot of doubts i don’t want to at all):
