See a Japan that is off the tourist routes and listen to the host, Paul, aka ExJapTer, along with a variety of guests, talk about what life is REALLY like in the land of the rising sun. Explore, learn, see footage of daily life and enter the conversation about what it is like to live in Japan LONG term. From tourist, to resident, to lifer.

Originally from the United States, I have lived in Japan for more than 14 years and decided there are plenty of things you just don't hear or know about Japan unless you have been here for a while. I hope you enjoy hearing my perspectives, as well as the perspectives of my various guests! I also hope that I can provide solid advice about how to stay sane as a long term resident and also what to expect if you decide to move to Japan with maybe, just maybe the possibility of staying the course.

Comments, questions, and requests are always welcome!
