What were you studying to become while you were there? I think that probably plays a pretty huge role in it all, depending on demand or ect. Another thing to think about is getting a job where you'd live there but work for a Swedish, for example, company. I know quite a few people that have had luck living in different countries when doing something similar to that.
Of course, this all depends on your willingness to potentially be shit broke for a long time due to a, potentially, low paying job. And again, hating your job is always a possibility.
Just my thoughts.
As I said, any advide is appreciated

thanks for the reply!
What I was studying was Japanese, my lifelong goal is to become a teacher. One of my few strong points is that I learn languages fairly easily by just listening, even though I'm hard of hearing.
My English is pretty much fluent except when I get a brainfreeze, thus I'd like to become an English teacher in Japan one day or perhaps if someone asks for it a Swedish tutor.
My demands are quite low, I've lived a relatively poor life (not neglected, just that i've had it tough with money). Therefore I'm used to and not oposite to living in a cramped and/or "uncomfortable" space. I'd take basicly any job I'd find as a temporary job or, well anything.
My willingness is basicly limitless, I've had my share of "crap" jobs before and I realize that the Japanese market is alot different from western but I'm a sturdy fellow and not afraid to rough myself up abit for the potential of becomming something bigger

I'm an educated welder you see.
