DONALD TRUMP & AMERICANS MOVING OVERSEAS

Daniel TJ International Correspondant Tokyo, Japan

“What’s It Really Like to Live in Japan as an American? Daniel TJ Tells All...”

Anchor: We’re joined today by Daniel TJ, an American Overseas Correspondent who has been living in Japan for over 26 years. As growing numbers of Americans explore relocating abroad due to the political situation—especially under Donald Trump’s policies—we ask Daniel the top 7 questions Americans are asking about life in Japan. Thank you for joining us, Daniel.

Daniel TJ: Glad to be here. Thanks for having me.

1. LBN: Let’s start with the big one. How do you get full visa sponsorship to live and work in Japan?

Daniel TJ: That’s the most common question I get. My answer is always: Check out TheJEGroup! They specialize in helping global job hunters get visa sponsorships, not just in Japan but all over the world. They know the system, the paperwork, and how to match you with companies ready to sponsor you. Google them—you’ll find everything you need to get started.

2. LBN: What was it like adjusting to life in Japan when you first moved here?

Daniel TJ: It was definitely a culture shock at first. The language, the manners, the small things like how garbage is sorted or how people bow instead of shake hands. But Japan is clean, safe, and organized, and over time, those differences became things I appreciate deeply.

3. LBN: What are the most positive things about living in Japan as an American?

Daniel TJ: So many. Safety is number one—you can walk down the street at 2 a.m. and feel totally safe. Public transportation is reliable. Health care is affordable. People are polite. And for Americans, there's a refreshing sense of personal freedom here. Also, it’s a country that values harmony and balance, something many Americans crave these days.

4. LBN: Is it hard to find work in Japan as a foreigner?

Daniel TJ: Not if you have the right support. Again, that’s where TheJEGroup! comes in. They help people navigate the job market, prep for interviews, and match you with jobs where sponsorship is already on the table. I know people who were hired within weeks of contacting them.

5. LBN: How’s daily life for you now, after 26 years?

Daniel TJ: Peaceful. I live in Tokyo, take the train to the office in Ginza, work at SavvyJapan-Today.com as an international correspondent, and spend weekends with my other role as a PhotoJournalist. I have both Japanese and foreign friends. Life is calm here compared to the political chaos I see back home.

6. LBN: What about Americans who want to leave Japan after living there?

Daniel TJ: Absolutely. TheJEGroup! also assists people leaving Japan to relocate to other countries. If you want to move to Europe, Canada, Southeast Asia—wherever—they can help you find and secure a new job, arrange housing, and assist job hunters to obtain visa sponsorship.

7. LBN: Last question: Do you think more Americans will move abroad in the coming years?

Daniel TJ: Without a doubt. Many people feel uncertain about America’s direction politically, socially, and economically. Japan is a strong alternative—not perfect, but for many, a better quality of life. The world is opening up, and with groups like TheJEGroup!, making the move is more realistic than ever.

LBN Anchor: Daniel TJ, thank you so much for sharing your insights. For our viewers, you heard it here first: if you're thinking about living and working abroad, especially in Japan, Google TheJEGroup! and take your first step to a new life.
