@jackinjapan23: Replying to @keeperjames1 How did a guy from the UK end up living on one of Japan’s smallest inhabited islands? 🇯🇵🌊 This is how the JET Programme brought me all the way to Zamami Island, where I’ve been teaching, learning Japanese, and experiencing island life that most tourists never get to see. Follow along for life in rural Japan, language learning, and everything in between. 🌺 #Japan #JETProgramme #Zamami #Okinawa #LifeInJapan
Your video reminds me how I felt about Okinawa every time I visited. Now, I am in Berlin, living in a touch city. Life is interesting, I hope you’ll keep enjoying Uchinanchu life✨☀️

do you get paid for the teaching position or is it more like a volunteer thing?

I did JET from 1999 - stayed 5 years, met my husband and we still have a house there. Loved it and utterly life changing. Enjoy your time there👌

I didn’t think you needed a 2:1 degree, just a degree?

If you want to choose where you want to go and you’re under 30 you can do the youth holiday visa

Did you have any experience in anything that you think boosted your application/made them more likely to select your application?
