Daily Life Living in Japan | Grocery Shopping after Work| Cooking Japanese Food | Weekend Routine

[@LouCslife]

Hello my dear friends! How’s your week? I hope everyone is doing well. Please do enjoy this video of my ordinary routine on weekends. Thank you so much for always supporting and motivating me. Love you all my dear friends! 💖Stay safe and healthy always 💕🤗

[@teresiavlog]

hi u've been missed🙃

[@M123OCT]

We really enjoy your videos, but I think the recent increase in music is spoiling them, especially with singing - it distracts from the atmosphere. If you must have music, instrumental would be better. Or even a little Japanese music to help support the vibe. 👍

[@susanjenkins6893]

@@M123OCTI love the music and find it very calming. Please Lou - keep putting music in your videos! 😊

[@laurapruett323]

Hello from Texas! Hope you have a lovely day! 🌹🌞⭐

[@normastrickland5704]

The music is really nice LouC and doesn't take away from the wonderful videos.. Your breakfast creation looks yummy delicious. Oatmeal Delight by LouC. Thank you so much for all that you share! Your videos are so heartwarming! Thank you!

[@userone6140]

I was just watching a video from a few months ago when you mentioned a comment saying your life is boring and nothing special. I really disagree - you've moved to a new country to help yourself and your family, which is so much more than 99% of people on this planet would ever do, and your videos make a difference to hundreds of thousands of people. You should really be proud of everything you're doing in life, and aware that you're helping other people too

[@IngeLyck]

I agree 🌺🌺

[@carolevandunn6101]

Yes i have respect for you, you did this all on yourself. You can be proud on yourself girl.❤❤

[@yanggarden3327]

One thing is for sure, we your viewers want a peaceful life and we find comfort and peace in your vlogs. Keep going!

[@susanjenkins6893]

Very, very true. I love her videos.

[@sanaamin7597]

True

[@NewSoul1985]

Yes we also love it that the videos are so calming, the silence and simplicity is good to relax.

[@IchigoOren]

I wish we could live in a peaceful homogenous society like Japanese. It use to be like that here in Sweden but not anymore. Its chaotic and now violence in our days everyday. I feel so sad living in my own country anymore.

[@Str8Maddeness]

@@IchigoOren I'm really sorry to hear that. The world is falling a part all around us.

[@kencreppin2146]

Love your videos. I am a 70 year old person also living alone. You have given me so many new ideas for cooking single meals that I want to thank you for! Keep them coming!

[@mrs.marshajohnson7431]

Since I’ve been watching you, I find myself opening the door to the outside every morning and going out to check and see how the weather is and what the day is like and I have a gratitude for the new day. Thank you for the inspiration.

[@mistyvioletconservative.3889]

1st thing I do 😊❤

Well, maybe 2nd after the coffeemaker is turned on LOL 😂

[@beverlyledbetter4906]

I used to do all my laundry on the weekends because I didn't have the time during the week and it was really stressful. Glad I don't have to do that anymore!🥺

[@mordeys]

I finally figured out why i love this channel so very much. We get unboxings, get ready with me's, cooking videos, clean with me's, shop with me's, nightly routines, crafting, go with me's....everything!

[@AndreLuzzardi]

My wife and I love to watch your videos! We are from the South of Brazil. We wish a lot of happiness to you!! Best wishes!!

[@LouCslife]

Thank you so much 🙇‍♀️

[@cyndiebodkin4963]

I’m relatively new to your channel but very much enjoy it. It’s nice to see someone your age taking care of themselves properly. You lead a simple, structured and happy life from what I can tell. Thank you for sharing some of your life journey with us.

[@sharonj.2865]

I'm intrigued at the shopping that portions things in such small quantities. It's nice that you can shop like that for one person.

[@claudiagrafwall9800]

Kann man in Deutschland zum Beispiel auch so kleine Mengen kaufen ist aber viel terurer😢

You have become one of my favorite KZbinrs. You are a very courageous woman and I’m sure that everyone is proud of what you have achieved so far. Do take care please , see you in your next video

[@rebecca-chrisndrewsmom]

Lou C is my absolute favorite KZbinr! She inspires me to keep going! Lou C you look fabulous!

[@professionaltrollgirl2682]

How is she courageous? Looks like she has an easy life

[@bytchesagainstbullshyt3696]

​@@professionaltrollgirl2682seriously, you said that 😂 her life is what it is because she MAKES it that way, she chooses to live in Gratitude daily and simply, she chooses happiness, courage comes in all forms, she lives in a very different societal structure and deals with many things that women in America and other Countries would not have to deal with, it's also courageous to make yourself vulnerable and put your life out on YT, do you have a channel ? You sound like you have a unhappy, miserable life

[@lemoncrinckles]

How nice to see a new vlog from Miss Lou C. 😊 Thank you for showing the food costs in dollars. Our food prices in the US are very expensive.

[@jeffmonje5452]

I find your videos wildly breathtaking. They take on a life of their own and have a pleasant harmony throughout that's beyond description......BRAVO! 😁

[@ulyssesfewl1059]

I remember the first time I entered a supermarket in Japan (Australian here), I was walking down an aisle, thinking to myself "This must be the Asian Food Aisle"!!! My two years living and working in Japan (2007 to 2009) were the best two years of my life (so far).

[@carries2173]

This may sound silly but your videos came up in my feed as a suggestion and now every night at bedtime, I watch your videos and they help me relax after a long day. You are brave for moving away from your family. You show everyone that they can do it too. Continue to be strong. We are watching and supporting you along the way. Best wishes from San Antonio, Texas. USA 😊

[@fahrimuratt.8903]

Lou, you should be one of the few people who can keep the kitchen so clean while cooking. Thanks for sharing 🎉

[@samysdefer]

Standard socialmedia cooking I would say.

[@rachelsirett8809]

Why savory things for breakfast in England probably be cereal or toast

[@aprilforrett7081]

My kitchen looks like a storm went through it and my husband's kitchen is clean

[@mariefein5544]

Finding peace in routine & joy in everyday things is a gift. Be happy and live everyday the best you can. I enjoy your videos.

[@darryldraper9708]

I’m starting my day with a special gift. You do not lead an ordinary life. You are an extraordinary person!

[@LouCslife]

Aww, thank you ☺️💕

[@darryldraper9708]

I mean it. You have touched many lives.

[@MonsterSoap]

Lou’s videos are just perfection ✨ I enjoy Nami’s videos sometimes too, but I love how authentic and vulnerable and down-to-earth Lou is. She lives a simple life, makes mistakes like the rest of us and so relatable. I feel like I’m visiting a good friend each time I watch. ❤️ Thank you, Lou!! 🎉

[@auzzieartist]

Hi Lou for your nails invest in vitamin E oil and rub into the nail and cuticles every night I suffer from Sjogren's disease, and this has helped my nails you need just a drop on each nail so a small bottle will last a long time :)

[@johnnewkirk8831]

Just watched your newest video you always have a wonderful way of presenting your favorite meals and day-to-day activities. 😊 Have great week

[@ericaluna00]

Thank you for the video and sharing your week with us. I hope your medical check goes well and the pain isn’t something worrisome and goes away. Hugs 💜

[@patriciatorrealba1680]

I really enjoy your videos. Thanks a lot. It feels so calm and relaxing when I'm watching them 😊

[@penguinandthechef7302]

As a nurse, we were always taught when making a patient's bed to place the open end of the pillow case facing the wall. That way, less bacteria can enter the pillow case while sleeping. So when you make your bed, place the open end of the pillow facing the wall 😊

[@rebelrunner3526]

Love your videos. I really look forward to them. They are so calming and relaxing and I love your recipes❤

[@katherineashley5712]

Hello Lou. I hope your week went well for you. You are such a sweet, calm, and conscientious person. The world needs a whole lot more people like you. You take care and I pray that everything in your upcoming medical exam goes well. Keep safe sweet lady.

[@jessajoyomongos731]

I can't get enough of your videos. They're so interesting and surprisingly comforting. I hope you also try cooking Filipino dishes using the ingredients available there in Japan. 🥰🥰🥰 Thanks, Ms. Lou C. for this video update!

[@arthurg7894]

After just 3 or 4 videos your channel has become one of my favorites. There's something so magical about every video 🙏🏻❤

[@mackcappel844]

Oh how nice it is to have this on a Sunday morning. Lou, thank you for all your hard work on your content. Especially on days I’m feeling down.

[@raymondng9379]

Thank you Lou C for yet another terapeutic video. Just like you, I live alone and often eat my dinner after work at home. However, as a lazy guy, I buy ready to eat meal. The sound of the cracking of eggs, the chopping board and cutting of vegetables in you video gave me the impression of eating a self cooked meal. And I enjoyed that. Many a times you have shown us your impeccable means of taking care of your home. Is there any chance you will do a video face to the camera about who you are? what do you do for a job? What challenge you faced for now and what is your goal working in Japan? We really want to know the humanity side of Lou C

[@LouCslife]

You’re welcome ☺️

[@cherrylane8648]

She has done one before..not face video type, but she has shared about her job and some aspect of her life in one of her other videos. She mentions about challenges and things she goes through.

[@robinrichards3884]

Good for you (and your colleagues) for deciding to be more active! It has so many health benefits. I hope your pain turns out to be nothing serious

[@neaththeburishade]

Hi Lou! I've seen people missing you and waiting for your next vlog, and I am one of them! Of course with a full time job, it is not easy to film and edit, or plan which content to post. But sharing what you call your ordinary life in Japan is actually inspirational for most, and relaxing for others. I work remotely at home and after work, I relax before I cook dinner. I turn on the tv and watch your vlogs. My family will say, is that Lou again? See? You've become a mainstay in my home. Love your simple cooking and how much you try to keep yourself healthy! Take care, see you on the next one!

[@jamessilva5818]

I love and embellish the fact that one can conquer obstacles in their path. I too have fallen on that path, sometimes it's hard and others a bit easier non the less it's not how u fall but how u get up so I like the way u said "fall down 7 times, get up 8"

[@Interestingness101]

Thank you for sharing your life with us. You're an inspiration to us all. Keep smiling, be happy and love yourself and rest assured we love you too.

[@judyfugate7136]

You are a shining example to lots of other young women. God bless you for all you do ❤️🙏

[@maggie27377]

I love how grocery stores there offer items in smaller quantities than American stores. Being single, I find it wasteful to have to buy larger sizes of items which can be wasteful.

[@brandylou9132]

Hi Dear, Sweet, Lou. It's me, your friend from TX, USA. If you don't mind, I would like to tell you I also had the same problems as you (weight, dry nails, pain under left breast, tired, sometimes sad). These are all signs of low thyroid. Many doctors said my thyroid is ok, but, finally a specialist did the proper tests and we found out my thyroid is very low. Medication helped me so much! Doctors often don't listen or respond well to thyroid issues. Its very important for your health to make sure thyroid is at a good level, especially since you had some of it removed. Good for you for the exercising. Remember, muscle weighs more than fat so don't get too discouraged if your weight does not reduce like expected. 😊

[@bytchesagainstbullshyt3696]

It's great to see the daily lives of others in different Countries, it's through your lens that we see how different but yet similar we are, that is powerful in bringing people together and understanding each other and our customs better

[@wazz1154]

Lou, keep going girl, you are heading in the right direction! Taking care of yourself is so important in life, because without good health life can be incredibly hard. I have to say your hair is looking really pretty these days, and your mood has definitely lifted. So proud of you, give yourself a pat on the back, a UK way of congratulating yourself, lol!

[@sarahchan4807]

Dear Miss C, I stumbled across your channel a couple of weeks ago. I am saving to buy my own apartment, gonna be a small one but I hope I can be self sufficient like you after buying my dream home. I look forward to cooking my own meals and enjoying the peaceful solitude.

[@niktve]

These videos are so calming and fun to watch

Lou I have to agree with everyone. Your videos are so calming. I love to watch him at night before I go to sleep. Thank you for sharing your life.

[@melangegirl]

Thank you for another interesting and very relaxing video. The next time you purchase green onions, save the root part that you cut off and stick them in a glass of water. After the roots become 2-3 inches, you can put them in soil and never buy green onions again. They are the easiest plant to grow. Watch a video on it for to see.

[@tesshackett5590]

A little balcony garden would be a great idea for onions, herbs, and be nice idea for fresh garlic chives too. 🪴Not mention fun.

Hello, i wanted to tell you. That since i discovered you, your videos are therapy for me. They make me calm down and feel at peace. I adore.

[@maidsua4208]

Thank you so much for sharing parts of your life with us! It is interesting to see life from a completely different part of the world than where you live. I am Scandinavian, half Danish and half Norwegian, and I live in Norway. I also lose weight quickly, but I also gain weight quickly. I had put on weight during the cold season, but with a little extra cycling and a slightly reduced food intake for breakfast, those kilos came off quickly. Wish you all the best!

[@vinnchen_696]

hey :) when you get up in the morning, leave your window/balcony door open and don't make your bed right away. You sweat when you sleep and should (so that no mold develops) air out the bed for 30 minutes. means that you do not lay the blanket straight, but put it to the side or from the bed, for the 30 minutes and with the window/balcony open.❤

[@Frightknighty]

I just want to say thank you. For the awesome videos you do. Also thank you for how much effort you put into the videos. Telling everyone in English, what every item is called. Also putting American money, so we know how much every item costs. Thank you so much for everything you do! ❤ from 🇨🇦❤️

[@deidrebee1]

Hello, Lou C. I had pain, also, under my left breast at your age. I had scans and biopsies more than once. I am 60 now, and have had the pain for 35 years. Otherwise, I am in excellent health. The pain is just part of my life but nothing is wrong. I pray the same for you.

A good thing to remember for dry nails is to make sure when you use hand lotion to include your nails the lotion helps them as much as your skin

[@bucknut7241]

The spanish writing on yr bag says ''with you till the end of the world''

[@xxkitsunaxx187]

I hope your weight loss journey goes well. Best thing to remember while at the gym is that you weigh yourself before your routine. Plus muscle weighs more than fat. Hope this helps! :) I have been told this by an instructor at a local gym I go to.

[@bmwrules28]

The soup 🍲 with gyoza (dumplings) looks soooooooo good. As well, the okonomiyaki type breakfast you made yum yum 😋 You’re a chef in the making 😆 👏🏼 👏🏼 Thanks for sharing how life in Japan is for you. Out here in Las Vegas, NV 🇺🇸 during the summer it is very dry with little rain. As well, the temperature today will be 40 degrees Celsius (next week one day may be 48 🥵 🥵) so it is very hot in the desert. The air conditioner runs but we use fans to keep cool during the day and night. If your new pillow doesn’t help, a small fan may help or (weather permitting) leaving your window open slightly to let the fresh air/cooler weather inside may help too. Hope your medical exam goes well! Enjoy the new bicycle! Have a blessed day 🙏🏼

[@andrewtucker3943]

It's such a different cooking experience from here in the "meat and two veg" UK. I had to look up what exactly gyoza and bonito flakes were. Garlic chives? Hang on, we have garlic and we have chives, but garlic chives? And pouring the beaten egg into the stock? I haz a confused. It does look sort of tasty... I need to expand my culinary horizons.

[@tesshackett5590]

Garlic chives and regular chives are both in the onion family. Much milder in favor and delicious, they are very easy to grow in a container yourself. I recommend that you try them. The purple flowers on the regular chives can be eaten too and make beautiful addition to salads and the like. (My favorite are the garlic chives)

[@Mekhinya]
