>>15687673I went on holiday and met her while out drinking. She, or rather her friend, actually hit on me - I apparently was the person she was most interested in in the bar, so her friend ended up chatting me up and introducing me to her. Ended up at her place for the night and then the rest of the weekend and it went from there.
She visited me a few months after in my country.
Corona happened, we were "remote" for quite a while - after which she moved to my country.
Probably wouldn't have worked out if it wasn't for the roner.
As for jobs... I could probably get a job as an electrical engineer here, but I'd earn like a third if not a fourth of what I earn in my home country. I can work (normal 8 hours day) In my home country for 2/3rds of a year, keep renting my apartment, spend 1/3rd of the year neeting in Japan living in hotels and so on, only eating out, and I'd still have more money left over than if I worked full time in Japan.
Retirement in Japan, sure. We might, once we're like 40 or something.
