and ofcourse i wouldnt also mind working as a nurse in japan, i just think that registration requirements arent gonna be easy though, after having registered in the Phil (originally), the UK, and the US myself. i just can imagine, how technical its gonna be to register/practice in japan.

so i might have to forget working as a nurse in japan all together...
and, reading through some comments about how difficult it is to work as a translator/interpreter, i dont know if can work it all out. haha.

for some reason, i think that id feel at home the most if i were in japan. having said that, going there for a holiday prolly is the best thing to do for now.
I believe I saw a show saying there are more foreign nurses needed in Japan as the population is getting older, and some young people aren't able to take in their parents, as is common practice. It may be worth looking into.
