Just received the papers from my Contracting Organization in Kazusa. Here are the highlights:

Rent: ¥35,000 (about $320 a month)
Deposit: ¥105,000 (about $1000 - yikes! But this is because I have no predecessor...I guess it's better that this fall on me than on someone straight out of college)
My new address: 3382 ki, Kazusa town Minamitakaki-gun, Nagasaki, Japan
Under the "Special leave" section: Special leave shall be provided for the periods set out in the following items: (Menstrual leave) Those days when a female JET is unable to work due to severe menstrual discomfort. (LOL!)

Overall, it looks like a fair contract. I am relieved that there isn't a statement prohibiting others from cohabitating with me. I've heard some horror stories on Big Daikon about prefectures not allowing couples to live together, even if they are engaged.

I also found out that this is close to me - how cool!
