Success Stories
A calm presence amongst a lot of misinformation
Nick was very knowledgable and insightful offering a range of different pathways to making a life in Japan. I’d recommend his services or a consultation if you’re looking to build a life in Japan.
Great listener
Nick is a good listener and even though I have spent many years already living in Japan he listened carefully to my goals for the future and was able to focus in on personalized suggestions. He is very open to following up after the consultation as well. This consultation was definitely time well spent!
I contacted Nick from Japan
I contacted Nick from Japan Remotely rather early in my journey.

I loved how personalized… Read more “I contacted Nick from Japan”
I love the location you suggested
If it weren’t for Nick coaching me and talking me through different areas in Japan to fit my lifestyle I am not sure I would be in such an amazing prefecture. 47 to choose from and Nick helped me narrow it down even having lived in Japan for 20 years. I picked a prefecture I… Read more “I love the location you suggested”

Immigration consult

I did find Nick to be quite knowledgeable about immigration issues and decided to use his services… Read more “Immigration consult”
Life after the Navy in Japan
Nick’s initial consultation with me changed my life! I’m in the Navy in Okinawa, Japan. I love it here and wish I could stay forever. I thought my only option was to leave Japan after my contract ends. Then I learned about Japan Remotely from Unpacking Japan on YouTube and scheduled an initial consultation. Nick… Read more “Life after the Navy in Japan”

Excellent advice!

He was also willing to connect us to people within his network to get additional information that we needed to make an educated choice.
