As long as you can access the WiFi internet, you should be able to use "text free" in Japan, or anywhere in the world. (Maybe not in China because of the censorship.) The problem is, how you find a free WiFi, or even a paid public WiFi service in Japan? Most paid WiFi services in Japan require the pre-registration to obtain a WEP key to connect to the service in the public place. You can not sign up for the service online at the time of the initial use, because they use the WEP key for security and you don't have it (WEP key) until you sign up to connect to their web site. Some places sell a one-day pass, though.

How to get a visa that allows me to work in Japan
How to get a visa that allows me to work in Japan?
I'm from Ireland. How do I get a visa that allows me to work in Japan? (working visa,etc). I have already worked in Japan for 1 year on a working holiday visa. Now that visa has expired and I have returned to my home country. However I would like to move back to Japan again next year. As far as I know, I cannot get another working holiday visa. What visa do I need that would let me work in Japan long term (teaching English). Thank you.

search the US STATE DEPARTMENT JOBS site and ask them if you can apply for a teaching position there. They have several internal visa's available to those who work for them. see site below. best of luck to you.

Your employer will have to apply for an employment visa for you.

You could maybe get an English Teacher Assistant visa. It means, being the assistant of an English teacher in an English class. It's possible to get but you'll need to do some googling.

How does foreign exchange work? - Japan to America
How does foreign exchange work? - Japan to America?
To be blunt, I'm just trying to write a story about a Japanese kid going to America and figured I need details since I'm not japanese. What confused me was Japan's voluntary high school and their grade system. If you are a native Japanese exchanging to America, and you are in that "voluntary" high school, what do you exchange into in America? Say I'm "First Year" in Japan. Do I go to America's "Freshmen" grade? Also, how long can a foreign exchange student stay in America? A month? A year? Also, how young can these kids transfer? Is there an age limit?

>Say I'm "First Year" in Japan. Do I go to America's "Freshmen" grade? It depends on each school. 1st year of high school is 10th grade in US. So if the high school in US is 4-year one, he would be transferred to sophomore year. >Also, how long can a foreign exchange student stay in America? A month? A year? It's possible to stay one year if you got that kind of visa. >Also, how young can these kids transfer? Is there an age limit? If you are talking about high schools, you must be 15 to join a high school in Japan. So that's age limit.
