Japan, But the work culture there and lower pay can't help me justify it. Right now its better for me to just take 2-3 month long vacations at a time there instead. Would have to start my own company there or get hired by a western firm and get sent there.


I would someday love to live there but language seems like a challenging issue.


it's only an issue if you're outside the big cities. I spend a pretty significant amount of time there, my minimal japanese has gotten me around on the country side too. but moving there would mean dealing with the local government bureaucracy like registering with your local city to pay taxes, which is still very foreigner unfriendly (though they are trying to improve it)
