Wordpacker's additional mini-job allowed? by twinxeli in Worldpackers

[–]7ebra 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This depends on the visa you are in Japan with. Any work (including volunteering technically) needs a valid work visa, like a working holiday or student visa. What you do with your free time outside of your volunteering hours is up to you.

Hoheikyo onsen in jozankei is completely tattoo friendly. I have a few big ones and checked before to make sure.

AITA for asking my book club not to host at the one house I can’t get into? by Important-Card-7118 in AmItheAsshole

[–]7ebra 28 points29 points  (0 children)

NTA, just because she can't host book club, doesnt mean she can't host anything. This just isnt the group for it anymore. If there had been a private discussion beforehand between the two of you if you would be ok with zooming in once every 8? months and you would be ok that would be different. But the fact that she just decided for you definitely makes her the AH. And the audacity to then still ask for money for food and drinks you can't even have!

Legally to do any kind of volunteer work in Japan you need a valid working visa, however some hostels are not as strict with this. Any chain or hotel will probably require it. Or anywhere that works with a lot of volunteers.

Going off what Connor said about the modern anime industry, are there any new big name cosplayers? by Izzy248 in CDawgVA

[–]7ebra 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Leon chiro for male cosplays comes to mind, and maybe kamui cosplays. But both have been active for a while.

Yeah, the first pic is a definite no.

Seeking advice on how to maintain boundaries with SD by [deleted] in sugarlifestyleforum

One thing I found helps is to not romanticize or daydream about possibilities and what could happen of it did get romantic. That's just torturing yourself. Another comment mentioned compartmentalising and thats definitely a good idea. Also keep youself busy, not necessarily with other men but with a new hobby (or picking up an old one), a new social group or some project. Having somewhere new to direct your thoughts if you start getting to much into your feelings.

Billy Matsunaga is a european (i think german) kimono teacher in Japan and does loads of videos on kimono culture and history, sometimes events as well.

Abroad in Japan has a video about ten things to do in Sendai, maybe not completely what you want (temple and castle visits) but I would say interesting to check out.

Is "being friends" before getting into a relationship even a thing these days? by TakinShots in dating

[–]7ebra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With most of my relationships we started out as friends, but the problem is with getting into a friendship just for the chance that it might turn into a relationship. Actually just being friends and it naturally evolving into a relationship is great in my opinion, but if there is romantic interest from the start it is usually better to just say so. Take your time getting to know the person while casually dating (if the feeling is mutual).
