Takeshi Fukumoto, from Nara prefecture, obtained a working holiday visa in November and moved to Toronto, where he works at a restaurant kitchen.
He makes 22 Canadian dollars ($16) an hour and averages 40 hours a week. “Despite my short hours, I earn a lot,” he said. “Including tips, my monthly income is over 400,000 yen.”
He said he keeps living costs down by cooking for himself and has saved more than 1 million yen.
Also if he calls over 40 hours a week short hours…
That made my eyebrows want to climb above my face.
