Also, what did you do with your things while over there? At most I have DVDs, books, and Native American artwork that I want to keep, but my family is already complaining about how many boxes I will have for them to store.

TIA!!!

then when i had about 500,000yen i made a big transfer and paid off the remainder of the loan.
as for what to do with your stuff- i have a few boxes at my parents' and a few things at friends'. i know other people who brought everything with them here.
view it as a good way to simplify your life.
