Re: Hawaii Aviation info
If you can adapt to the japanese way, life in osaka is cheaper than life in sydney, or even adelaide.
My salary when working as a truck driver in japan was about 200,000yen/month. I managed to save 50,000 of that, and still get out on the piss a couple of times a week.
Its a great place if you are an adaptable open minded person who is willing to make an effort to fit in. Having a decent shot at learning the language will earn you more respect from the locals than anything. Otherwise, you will likely hate it.
