On this board?
Lots of good advice on how to retire in Japan, finances, property etc. but how about the non-material, how do people find these?
For example, lack of family close by, transient international community, age-related health issues (e.g. cognitive decline), and dealing with all of these things in a country where the spoken language isn't your first language.
I'm interested to hear retired peoples experiences.
For me the problem with retiring in Japan isn't financial, it's more a case of do I actually want to be here when I'm 80yr old and falling apart.
