    So a WWOOF host got back to me! On July 8th I will be helping out at a lodge in Nikko, one of the most famous places for temples, waterfalls and onsen! Not much to complain about, especially as the physical labor potential is much lower that some of the other ones that I applied to (one was with a lumberjack, even)! They need help with hotel-like tasks, and their website, and landscaping tasks. So I get paid in 2 days, and then it only costs $30 to get there, and I will be able to save most of the rest because the work is in exchange for room and board. So they have net access so I can do interviews and apply for jobs while I’m there, too! So, as long as I don’t die of starvation tomorrow (which would be really impressive) then this should cover the difficult patch until I get a job. I should be able to stay with them until then, I think. Yay! and PHEW!
