I have sort of the opposite problem.
My wife and I moved to Japan in our 20s and it was pretty damn easy because I’m a citizen and I had family help me find an apartment for us. We were 100% set in terms of basic necessities in like a week and could start job hunting immediately.
Now that I’m in my 40s, we’re trying to go back to Canada so we can take care of our parents more and let the kids experience Canadian schools, but it’s so god damn expensive to do anything.
