Its that time of the year. I made a trip to the Japanese immigration office in Shinagawa in order to renew my visa and ensure that I don't get deported!
It was a generally painless process except for the fact that it is about an hour trip each way and all together the fees totalled about $100. I was a little worried this year as it was my first time applying for a "Self-Sponsored Visa."
For those who are interested in learning more about the various kinds of visas available my next video will be a "F.Y.I Visa" video explaining all that in greater detail.
Music:
Going Down South (Remix) - R.L. Burnside
Tick Toc (Live)- Eastern Standard Time
The Waiting - Tom Petty
Dancing Fever - Claudia Barry
