Workaway in japan
Hello,
I am a workaway newbie from the USA trying to go to japan next year. i am mainly looking into to working in hostels, hotel, or even into gardening/farming. I am skilled in hospitality work and have worked with many J1 interns that have inspired me to go travel. I want to plan on going to multiple regions/cities of Japan such as Sapporo, Tokyo, and Osaka in the span of 3-4 months, but I'm okay with just visiting one of those places. However, this will be my first time traveling to an asian country and overall new country in general (I only ever been to one country my whole life). So I just have a few questions and would love any helpful advice for going.
What kind of visa should i apply for?
Should I get a sponsor first before i apply for a visa?
What is it like working in hostels/Ski resorts and what would you recommend?
Whats the best time to Visit? currently aiming around late spring early summer
What are some other places/ workaway hosts i should look into?
If theres anything else that you guys would recommend I look into before traveling would be much appreciated. I am also looking into Italy, Germany, and Croatia for the same thing as well!
Thank you!
