Would your earnings teaching English in Japan cover living expenses and debt? If it would, the go for it. If it wouldn't, figure something else out.
If you do go for it, and don't want to make this a permanent change, make sure to stay current with technology. Build a public portfolio showing that even though you aren't working in tech, you are still working with it.
Another option would be to slowly transition away from teaching English to becoming a freelancer so that you could travel while still earning mid-high pay.
yes, they almost certainly would cover living expenses and debt, and id probably be able to save on top of that. I've already done some number crunching along those lines.
Yeah, honestly I was already thinking about teaching english as a means of full-time pay, and then doing ML freelance work to build my skills and portfolio
