There's not many places to work in Japan, coworking spaces usually only have long-term packages, there's not many cafes except Starbucks and Tully's and they have absolutely terrible WiFi and few to no power outlets. To get WiFi, you need to rent a Pocket WiFi router. English speaking is non-existent. Japan as a society is not welcoming of foreigners and has hidden racism against foreigners is prevalent. All of this makes Japan a nice place to visit for a week but completely unsuitable to visit as a digital nomad (for now). | ||
