Hi All, Im going to be spending the winter in Nagano, and was just wondering what the wireless internet coverage was like in the area around Happo, Iwatake, Tsugaike Resort? Deciding whether to bring a laptop or not, or just use the internet cafes that Im sure will be around. Thanks, Anthony.

Well I applied 2 weeks ago online for boobooski and havent had a phone interview yet they've missed both call times they said theyd call me on...all signs looking good so far

Hi All, (Go easy on the newbie) Basically I've been getting a bit bored with my current job lately and have decided to take 6 months off at the end of the year for a working holiday and ski Japan, and Im trying to get a job and everything set-up before I go. So far I've only seen a few jobs such as on these forums, but also boobooki and am also trying to get one off hokkaidotracks, any other places I've missed I've gone the furthest with boobooski and they have a few destinations (not paticular resorts) listed; Hokkaido, Niigata, Shiga-Kogen, Nagano and Gifu, anyone recommend wh
