Hello my name is Ryan. I was wondering if you could give me some insight?
Im an American 38 year old Male with just an associates degree and 10 year experience Driving a semi Truck. Nothing that Japan needs or wants.
I am looking for a change and to cut it short, I want to go to japanese language school. I Have enough money in the bank to afford the school.
My REAL intention is to learn a second language. Ive been self studying on and off and currently learning hiragana and katakana. But I want the immersion, dedication and work that goes along with language school.
I don’t fully have the intention of working in Japan as I know I dont have a specialized field to go into. I just want to learn and do something different with my life.
I was told by gogonihon that the Japanese Embassy would basically ask my why I want to go to JLS. What my future plans are…
I dont have a plan to continue education or work as a “professional”. Maybe more “lower paying” jobs. Perhaps I meet someone, Perhaps I get a salt of the earth job that I dig?
Do I have a chance?
