Hey guys! I am working on my application to teach abroad for the JET program and just had a few questions.
To preface, I don't know a ton of Japanese, just under 10 basic sentences. I want to work somewhere more rural but I also understand that it may be harder to get around with limited Japanese vocabulary. Is there any rural or semi-rural areas where individuals know a bit of english, or maybe a spot with more JET's? I plan to learn more Japanese throughout the time before my acceptance, and (hopefully) once I am accepted.
Is there also an area where I could room with another person? I plan to go with my sister where we both wanted to work semi-close to each other. Is this a possibility? Also, what is rent like?
I was also wondering if any rural areas have train stations, but that said I wouldn't mind if I had to walk or bike anywhere.
I would love to know which places you guys liked working the most. I am not picky at all, but I would prefer a place that has nature and opportunity to meet others:)!
Thanks so much :)))))
