Hi, and welcome to Remote Work + Travel Japan Guide. My name is Nomad Shinya.
I’m someone who’s spent years living, working, and traveling across Japan — from the mountains of Kyushu to the hidden villages of Tohoku.
Through all those experiences, I realized one thing: Japan isn’t just about temples, sushi, or bullet trains. It’s a rich, diverse patchwork of people, landscapes, and cultures — and that story
often gets missed.
This guide was born from my personal journey. I wanted to create something for remote workers, digital nomads, and curious travelers who want more than just surface-level sightseeing.
Whether you’re staying a week or a year, I hope this site helps you connect more deeply with Japan — and makes your journey smoother, more meaningful, and a little more fun.
