No, not at all. But I had a realistic image and realistic expectations of what life was like here.

How did you get by on only $100?

I didn`t. I had $500. :P
I lived with a host family, and paid them for my food, etc.

is it true that its really expensive there?

It depends upon where you live and how you live. I would say the median cost of living is quite high, but that doesn`t mean you couldn`t survive at a very low level. Your life would just be pretty crappy.

I spoke pretty much close to no Japanese my first time here.
