Been offered a teaching gig in Tokyo. Want to know if this salary will allow me to live a good life and see lots of the country at weekends and holidays (including doing things like skiing in the winter) or will be a more austere lifestyle? It's a fair salary cut from what I'm on now in cash terms, and I've never been to Japan so would really appreciate the advice! 🙏🏻🇯🇵
Also I'm middle aged so not looking to live like a student!
