Well, good luck with that. I'd love to go back to Tokyo, but since the 
company stopped sending me it has become a lot more expensive, IYSWIM.

I would strongly recommend you (or anyone, for that matter) read "River 
Town - Two years on the Yangtze" by Peter Hessler - although the quicker 
witted readers may have spotted that it's about China rather than Japan,
it 
gives a wonderful insight into teaching English in a foreign culture and 
living abroad generally. It's also just very beautifully written.

Do let us know if you find a potential employer.
