Hello everyone, I am new to this forum and looking for some info from those who have taken the road I am about to take. I am a 29 year old who has just been hired by ECC. I have accepted the offer and I'm looking forward to my adventure in Japan.

I was wondering if anyone here has worked for ECC that may be able to offer some helpful tips or general info. Also, I know it's mostly younger people who go to Japan to teach English and was wondering if there are many others who are older like me who do it as well. I'm just so bored in Canada and need a change of environment.

Also, how big is the Gaijin community in the Tokyo area? Is it easy to find other foreigners to hang out with?

Thanks all!
