BestLivingJapan.com does accept guest posts. However, we are pretty picky about what we put on the site and are very specific about what we consider a guest post as opposed to a sponsored post (which we also accept)! Learn, Laugh & Live! Lauren & Sandra

BestLivingJapan also likes to guest post. Let me know if you are interested. We are available for phone, Skype, in person, and email interviews. Just ask!
We also love to write guest posts on other sites and typically have a few posts that we am working on to pitch to other bloggers and company blogs – so, we should be able to get to it pretty quickly. Again, please just ask!
Hope to hear about your post ideas! Lauren and Sandra

Dear Mrs. Kawasaki,
Sorry for my email yesterday, because I wasn’t sure how to deal with your system.
I realize that you have quite good coverage of how to live in Japan as foreigners, so if you are interested in Makie or if someone is looking for good advice for gardening, please let me know.

Hi,
When will you publish your Antique show events for July?
I just learned about the June events today (June 17th) when I received your newsletter, however many of the month’s Tokyo Antique Markets have already passed.
I enjoy your publication.
Hi Jim, We always publish the list 2-4 days before the next month. Thanks for following. lauren
