So I will be in Nagoya for a job interview. Their main office is in Nagoya, but the location I would be offered would either be in here in Shizuoka prefecture, which will only be part time until around February next year and then would become full time. My other option would be to take full time work in either Mie or Ishikawa prefecture, which would start right away. If I'm sent to work full time in Mie prefecture, it would most likely be Tsu City. If I'm sent to Ishikawa, it would be Kanazawa City.
I have been to Kanazawa City two times with different friends and really enjoyed it but that was as a tourist. The city did seem really peaceful and the locals seemed friendly for the most part. I noticed that the people in general dress a lot more modest and less trendy than the people here in Shizuoka City, which is most likely due to being much further away from Tokyo and its world of fashion.
I have traveled to Ise shrine but I was only there to see that place and didn't see anywhere else. Has anyone ever visited or lived in either Tsu City or Kanazawa City before?
I know the gaijin-friendly adult entertainment is almost non-existent in both these cities and prefectures in general, which is fine. I could check some places out in one of these areas and report on them here if I relocate. I'm just curious about day to day life and costs in general in these areas.
I'm tempted to take the part time to full time job offer here in the Shizuoka area because one of the schools is nearby where a good friend of mine lives and I wouldn't need to quit any of the jobs I have going now until the full time starts early next year. I'm earning a decent amount each month from part time work, private students and online work I do with my brother, so I could afford to take the Shizuoka prefecture option as well.
P.S. Are there any interesting places to see in Nagoya in the evening or night? I'm just thinking about going to ロボットふぁーめん where they have the two robots that make your ramen for you. For some reason the address doesn't show up at google maps and I can't find an official website for the place either.
I did come across this map though: https://tabelog.com/aichi/A2301/A230105/23031421/dtlmap/
Is this place still in business?
