Good sheet Fortitudinal! Are you teaching English there? How is the visa situ for Canadians outside of the teaching visa? Is it easy to get say a cultural or student visa? How about biz visa? I know we Canucks can stay there for up to 90 days upon landing, can that be extended by doing a quick and short visa run to China/Korea and back within 2-5 days?

Just to add to the above, if you are under 30 and from Canada, Britain, Australia, NZ, France or Germany then you can get a Working Holiday Visa in Japan. Lasts for a year or more and you aren't compelled to do any particular activity while you are there. This is the best and cheapest option if you are eligible.
PM me for accommodation options in Bangkok.
