Hi, I’m hoping someone in a smiliar situation is able to guide me through some logistics?
I’m 36F – I’ve lived in the US for 20+ years but am looking to move back to Japan. I was born and semi raised in Japan but moved to the US as a child so I have no knowledge of “adult life” there. I’ve got funds and citizenship so getting a VISA is not my issue.
Spoken language is no issue but my reading comprehension isn’t great so I’m scared of how to go about securing housing, banking info, etc. I know there are apps like Google that can translate, but are they accurate enough to rely on for legal documentation?
Essentially I’m moving back to my own country as a foreigner and don’t know what to do expect. My timeline is spring of 2026 so I’ve got time to prepare.
Any advice would be so greatly appreciated!
