Recently, many people are returning to Japan
most of them are in their 60's or older.
We would like to hear the opinions of those who have decided to return to Japan, or
those who have already done so.
On the other hand, I would like to hear from those who will continue to live here.
My husband is American and I will stay here unless I get divorced. My children are also here.
Also, climate is an issue, and my parents are gone.
I think I'll be patient and only go to Japan on vacation.
But recently I hear a lot of talk about going back to Japan, and it makes me a little nervous.

I had simply longed for the "blue skies of California" since I was a teenager.

After three years and one term as an expatriate, I realized that I would get married, have children, take them back to Japan, where they would start school and where I could not speak Japanese.

He realized that it was impossible to settle down in Japan and decided to quit his job as an expatriate and live in Japan permanently.


I am now "late in life" and my grandchildren have sent me off on a walking pilgrimage to the other side of the world.

Having said that, I would like to walk the path of Shikoku with my current legs for another 10 years.

Thank you for your experience.
I understand that you are u-turn to the U.S. again after returning home. Perhaps you came back to Japan too soon.

I would imagine that you were in a very healthy （ and young ） group at the assisted living facility. That would make them a bad fit.

We are talking about returning home when they can no longer drive. That would be in their 80s. I am in my early 70s now. Right now we are in a house with no problems and neither of us needs care.

We still like the climate here （ and the South Bay ） is hard to leave.
We don't have to worry about the cost of medical care anymore since we are on Medicare.

When the children started school, they could not speak Japanese, and their conversations with their parents were also in English?

Many Chinese and Korean Americans speak Chinese and Korean, but Japanese Americans are not so good.
