6 Month Internship Abroad – Is the pay liveable?

Hello everyone,

I am currently applying for a 6 month internship at a hotel in Tokyo through my college, where my hourly pay is $10USD/hour, 45 hour work weeks. I am just looking for any advice or insight as to how much things generally cost there (not sure if time matters but i would be in Japan from December 2025-June 2026). I do have a car note of $500USD a month (im suffering) that I would have to take care of while im gone. Any and all advice is welcome and appreciated as im trying to start planning a budget in case I get accepted.

Thank you!

** edit – i forgot a big piece of information, my housing is provided by the internship, so housing is a cost that is covered
