From a senior foreigner working in a construction company
one thing

I want to live in Japan with my wife and children as soon as possible. Fat is a family man.

For me, the most important thing is my family.
My two children are currently in Vietnam. I am working hard in Japan so that I can raise them without any hardships.

One of the things I enjoy about working in Japan is going out for drinks with colleagues, both senior and junior, on my days off. It's very relaxing and fun.
I also like Japanese food, and I especially enjoy going to yakiniku (Japanese barbecue) restaurants.

My wife also loves Japanese scenery and culture, so we hope to live in Japan as a family someday. In order to obtain permanent residency in Japan, I also need to improve my work skills.

For that reason, I am now studying for a first-class Paper hanging Certificed Skilled Worker.
I definitely want to be Specified Skilled Worker (ii).
