Looking for English Language Expat info in Tokyo, Japan?

Posted on May 12, 2011 by admin| 3 Comments

I recently relocated to Tokyo, Japan from New York city and I have
been trying to find English language web resources similar to what I used on a regular basis in New York. I often used craigslist to find activities and for online dating in New York and haven’t been able to find a similar English language site with a large user base in Tokyo. I’ve found sites but they have very small user bases. What I am looking for is where on the web I can connect with the English speaking expat community to meet people, find dates, find a sports team/league similar to www.zogsports.com, find a running group similar to New York Road Runners http://www.nyrrc.org/ and where I can find
classified ads for things like buying a used bicycle.

How do I get a cheap apartment in New York City?

Posted on March 14, 2011 by admin| 2 Comments

I’m looking for a place to rent in NYC for around $500 or less a month, I’m young but I do have great references. I need a place as soon as possible, I’ve tried craigslist, and I don’t have the time to wait for low-income application processes. I’m willing to be a roomate, or a handyman, or do just about anything for just a little place to keep my clothes and a bed. PLEASE HELP!

How can I get lots of people to come to a show in NYC?

Posted on March 13, 2011 by admin| 1 Comment

I run various shows at different venues in New York City, including comedy and music shows. I have no problem getting great talent, but I’d like to build up more of an audience at the shows. I’d rather not send people out of the street with flyers and stuff, and craigslist event postings don’t usually help much. Does anyone have any new or interesting ideas for attracting an audience to a show in New York City?

Need somewhere cheap to stay in New York (or area) for 3-4 months. Suggestions?

Posted on February 23, 2011 by admin| 1 Comment

I plan on doing an internship in New York City-area for 3-4 starting at the end of May and will be there, more than likely, until the end of August. I need somewhere to stay, but can only go $650/month max.

Is this even possible? What are some areas relatively close? Other suggestions? I already looked into hostels and it’s just not cost-efficient for me. I tried looking on Craigslist for temporary housing/sublets but it’s too early to get a good idea.

How can I get an affordable room/apartment in NYC for 3 months?

Posted on September 7, 2010 by admin| 4 Comments

I want to spend two to three months in New York City next year (starting April) and would like to know whether you know where to find accomodation. Since I am German I guess this whole credit check that people have to go through to get a (furnished) apartment could be a bit difficult. I also don’t want to pay tons of money for a real estate agent, when I only intend to stay for such a short period of time.
I already looked at Craigslist, but there are only very short term apartments available.

I am from CA. I would like to try to find a roommate in New York City. I don’t know if it’s unrealistic to do that with my income. I saw a lot of listings on craigslist, but the inexpensive rooms are usually around harlem or bronx. I need a little general advice about the city and what it would cost to live there.
