> Tokyo is an amazing city, though it can be very lonely for an expat.
Could you expand upon this? I've been thinking of moving there for a year or two to focus on my language skills and work on my startup.
I spent a lot of time in Obihiro, Hokkaido in my late teens and had a blast hanging out at the university. Everyone was super friendly.
When I traveled to even more remote towns like Hobetsu / Mukawa, Makubetsu, Ashoro, and Honbetsu, the children would run up to meet me and want to take photos. (They don't see foreigners often.)
I never spent much time in Tokyo, but I did spend a lot of time in Shanghai, Changsha, and other big Chinese cities and almost want to consider that a proxy.
Why is Tokyo lonely? Is it this city in particular? Is it a certain age range?
Post-college and into adulthood does it become lonelier?
Also, what's the startup scene like in Tokyo? I'm considering something a few steps beyond VTuber streaming and think Japan would be a great environment to pull talent from.
