[DreamingtoJapan]

ok so undoubtedly I have missed much since I did not read but a few of the above replies... sorry

I am 39 years old and have recently become infatuated with Japan... food, traditional music, arts, scenic beauty, etc. I am thinking about coming to stay in Japan for a few months if not longer. My work experience to date includes childcare, tourism related retail, various arts/crafts, and housekeeping. I am also a fairly skilled writer and photographer. I learn languages quickly (at least the basics), but do not have a Bachelor's degree.
What would you say my options are?

Thanks in advance from someone trying to figure out if this is practical or simply a dream!
