Hi Ben,
It is amazing how many of us there are. Nice to find another Ben with a sense of humor and interest in Japan. Isn’t it great how many Japanese meanings can be attached to our name? Study, dialect, *&^*&^ etc. =D I look forward to taking a more indepth look at your posts!
Dear Mr. Shearon,
I came across your website and blog as I was researching for teaching positions in Japan. I am about to finish my university degree in Canada and it has always been a dream of mine to teach overseas.
Can you tell me about living in Japan? The pros and cons? A teachers salary? Living expenses, etc.
Looking forward to speaking with you.
Thank you,
Tarek
