Hi! Thank you for coming to see this!
I'm a 23-yo woman living in Japan (Osaka).
My last full-time job is not working out so I am living part-time now.
Lately, I feel like I can live a fun life that suits me without spending too much money.
So, I'm going to record my favorite trips and life in videos like this!
I'm in an early stage, so I'd like to hear your opinions from all over the world^^

Algorithm be praised! I've watched this video and got hooked instantly. I know life can be difficult at times although you'll always have the power to make yourself happy. Do the job at hand but at the same time, take care and look after yourself. Thanks for the tour and I'll sure catch your next one!

I struggled with what to with my life...I found I like to help and meet people, customer service became my skill. I have used that skill in a couple different fields, mostly heating services in people's homes. You seem very thoughtful and intelligent, I think you will succeed in whatever you pursue.

[@lmclrain]

It is so true that you mention what you realized your life style was getting you into. Many think working and money is everything, and those are important, but a the same time, no amount of money will get you back your youth or improve your health as you do by simply being on nature and eating good foods. I am 34 years old and I have changed my life style not long ago, and because of that I improved my health better than ever, even when I was much younger. I have simply never looked this better, never felt this good. I know many people my age will start experiment health issues as they age, I was actually heading there, but things have improved and that is not the case anymore. I do train daily very often, 30 or more minutes, and that was the best I could do. In a way I wish I had realized that earlier in life but I am doing great still. I got plenty of advice, that might be a little too much, since not many people are into training as I do, but perhaps I can share that with you eventually. I will keep watching future videos, keep it up.

[@rcboatnut]

Thanks for sharing your day, the more videos you do the more natural they will feel, its just getting use to talking to the camera and sharing what you see and feel. A creative outlet like this can be very satisfying and it may with you for many years. Enjoy.

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thank you for watching and for your kind message! Yes, it's still a bit awkward, but creating is fun, surprisingly. I'll keep at it! Wishing you a wonderful everyday life too!

[@_Sho_oK]

Dont worry too much, you are doing good in your english compared to most japanese. more conversations with foreigners or with people you know who speak english well will polish your fluency. About your carrer, you are not alone in feeling like you feel lost in what you want to do. Hope to see more videos and maybe see how you progress in life. Keep it up duds!

[@ireachy]

Another nice, refreshing and open and honest video. As ever, thanks for sharing with us and your pronunciation is really great. Take care 😊

[@tanory07]

Your conversation in English was very good. The guy understood what you meant super well! Speaking more fluently just takes practice, you cannot study and improve that sort of thing. It will come naturally, don't pressure or put yourself down! :)

[@sopor0]

Keep it up Saiko Chan ...Make life beautiful as you see! Never let things get you down :)))))

[@DanKxxx]

fushimi inari is so nice. I went there about 10 years ago. I should go back some time. I did it at night time and it had a really spooky atmosphere but was a lot of fun.

[@Grondhammar]

KZbin just recommended this video, and I'm glad it did. Thanks for exploring Kyoto, and showing us alleys, and very quiet nature, and shrines. As cool_yeti said, your English is very good (pronounciation especially), and it was really kind of you to stop and talk for five minutes, in English! I'm sure you made that man's day brighter. いつも幸せな道を！

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thank you for your warm comment! I'm very happy to hear that. I'm planning on making more videos, so I hope you enjoy them again,ありがとう！

[@kimvaj77]

Just visted the same Shrine about a month ago. Funny enough i think we took the same route but in reverse. I got my friend and I lost and we went all the way around to the top of Mt. Inari. Really enjoyed your video 😊

[@MovementElements]

the honesty and sincerity is definitely warming. and the location is amazing, connecting with nature around you. You have an eye for this for sure, good job!

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thank you for watching and for your kind comment! It's great to hear that! I'll make another video soon!

[@JosPower91]

I like how organic your videos are. Keep on sharing your thoughts and life, you will find out that a lot people do and feel the same as you. Good song choices by the way.

[@monogramadikt5971]

the first time i visited Fushimi Inari i had no idea that it was such a popular destination ? i was staying in gion and i rode a bike there not knowing what to expect, it was a weekend day so it ended up being pretty crowded there but it was still pretty good walking to the peak and spending time in an old graveyard there. i was also lucky enough to see a traditional music performance at the temple there. hopefully i get the chance to visit again someday ;)

[@shwetha9617]

Randomly came across this video, keep going, you will find your purpose, Thank you for the video.. Good luck!

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thank you for watching and warm comment!

[@ss-manoa4534]

Thank you for sharing these videos! I just discovered your channel today and really appreciate how you show us life in Japan. What may seem plain and ordinary to you is special and interesting to those us who have been to Japan or who want to go to Japan. Your English is very good and doesn’t need any subtitles, but so that we can learn some Japanese, maybe if it isn’t too much work, maybe some subtitles in Japanese when you are speaking in English as well as speaking sometimes in Japanese with subtitles in English? It seems your English is good enough to work for many American companies. I think you only need to have more confidence in your English. Maybe speaking with more tourists in Japan, like you did in this video with the gentleman from Mexico, would help your confidence? Are there jobs related to health care where you can use your English skills to help patients who don’t speak Japanese? We will appreciate whatever you want to show us of Japan at whatever schedule is comfortable for you. Take care

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thank you so much for watching! And thank you for your kind comments. I'm so grateful that you enjoyed it! Your words really lift my spirits. Yes, I'm thinking about adding Japanese and English subtitles. I'll start with the next video and gradually improve! If you have any suggestions, please let me know! And as you mentioned, I do need to speak more English. I'll work on it, especially considering future opportunities that involve using English. Thank you for your wonderful comment. Take care to!

[@Kotayato]

Your videos are so fun :) your English is also really good and easy to understand! Please keep making more videos 😊 I'm visiting Japan in a month from America and I'm really nervous but your video makes Japan look so comfortable! ❤

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thank you for watching from America! I'm glad to hear that. Oh you will come in a month! it is exactly the best season for cherry blossoms! I hope you have a wonderful and safe travel!

[@ruthiepruitt9086]

Thank you for sharing your video. I will be back in Kyoto again next month and you’ve provided me an ideal spot to visit and have quieter scenic routes to explore. I feel like doing more videos and interaction with your viewers here will help you feel more comfortable with English speaking. 👍 be brave and keep up the good work!🙏🏽😁

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thank you so much for your lovely message:)Have a wonderful travel in Kyoto

[@sopor0]

Your english is great ...No worries! Do what you enjoy. I feel the same as well I live alone and feel same as you? But, I should say ...I understand what you feel but only you know how you feel. :))

[@Jarhead1076]

Your English is good. Much better than my Japanese.

[@phillydisco]

I love mountain hiking. For the last few years, I've traveled to Albert to hike in the Rocky Mountains, or to Quebec to hike in the mountains there. It's best when there isn't any rain or cloudy, so you can see a nice view. But I will still get out for the exercise. I used to lead groups for hiking, but then during pandemic, I did more solo hiking, and have stayed that way. I don't feel lonely in the outdoors, I have my music playing in my headphones and appreciate being able to see beauty in nature. I appreciate life because not everyone can enjoy it the same way.

[@smbaskins]

Thank you for uploading this video. Seeing the paths around Fushimi Inari again made me really nostalgic. Kyoto is a beautiful city. We all feel lost from time to time. Don't be too hard on yourself and keep doing things you enjoy.

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thank you for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed the footage of Kyoto, and I appreciate your kind comments. I'll definitely be posting more videos of Kyoto in the future. Thanks again, and I'll keep pushing forward without getting too pessimistic.

[@augustoluciano6444]

Hi, Saiko! Thanks again... Japan has many beautiful places to see... Many kisses... Meyer from Brazil...

[@user-lk2qf4rt3m]

Awww you made that man so happy by stopping and talking to him... He will treasure the memory

[@SaikoTakahashi]

I'm glad to hear that! It's also a memory for me. Thank you!

[@xpd03]

this is wholesome

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thank you for watching and commenting! I am very glad to hear that!

[@marioluigi3212]

Your videos are so good, I love how sincere and real they feel. Keep doing what you’re doing, it’s great. You’re English seems to get better each video

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thank you for watching! Your kind comments mean a lot to me. Yes, I'll keep going and strive to improve. Thanks again!

[@arghentrock]

It's so interesting what can be done in one day with little money in Kyoto.

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thank you for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Yes, we can be satisfied just by walking around Kyoto empty-handed! I'll make another video soon!

[@pawkyyy]

thank you. i also occasionally feel the same way, stuck in life. as long as it's possible to not give up, and make the smallest of progress, i think it's okay.

[@johnpaolobalmaceda]

ur english is good 😊 more videos soon please! take care always. greetings from 🇵🇭

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thank you for watching, from far away in the Philippines! And your warm comment! Yes I will make another video soon! Thanks🇵🇭

[@stephen.macleod]

I simply adore your videos and can't wait until new ones drop. Much love from the U.S. 💖 By the way, your English is MUCH better than my non-existent Japanese, but I'm working on it. 😂

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thank you so much;; I’ll upload soon

[@TheDennyvu]

Hello, me again, just going through all your videos lol, I agree with you, when I visited Japan I enjoyed Osaka and Kansai a lot more than Tokyo and Kanto. If I ever lived in Japan it would definitely be in Osaka or the Kansai region. Don’t be to hard on yourself, take some time to find yourself and what makes you happy before you commit to anything long term, nature definitely helps, I started backpack camping as a hobby in university to get away from society and clear my mind/ hear myself think as a form of therapy, it taught me to slow down and enjoy the beauty in life.

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thank you for watching! I'm really happy to hear that. As you said, it's important to try out many things to find what I love.I'm also interested in backpacking camping too ! I definitely plan to give it a try." And if you like outdoor activities and camping, Shikoku and Chugoku regions is great for your next trip to Japan!mThank you again!

[@TheDennyvu]

@@SaikoTakahashi I think you would love backpacking! I will need to go to those regions on my next trip then, however my Nihongo is not that good which makes me anxious about venturing out into the countryside… maybe you can be my guide and also help me learn Japanese? lol

[@johnfoster4905]

Wow that's a pretty cool video . My relatives went to Japan they liked it. I took a Japanese class in middle school it seemed like a fun language i think i want to go to Japan lol.

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thank you for watching! Oh I'm glad to hear that And I hope you come to Japan and enjoy someday!

[@luischicas9556]

'This ware house like room is my home I don't know why it made me smile', but then you couldn't invite a bf even if you could made me laugh 😁. Hello from Australia saiko-san 👋

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thank you 😽

[@60vik]

you are making very soothing videos! thank you

[@adilelhantaoui7588]

Hi cheers from Morocco..l guess you are lucky to study and be nurse if you work hard young its good for you to have expérience in young age ...you are beautiful just believe in your self and every thing will be ok . Greetings from rabat Morocco

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thank you for your warm comments from far away Morocco! I'm glad to hear that . I will try my best without thinking too much! thank you🇲🇦

[@sarkwalvein]

Hi, how do you do? I am enjoying your videos, they are very sincere, kind and relaxed and you show a part of life in Japan that is not usually shown. I hope you enjoy making your videos as much as I enjoy watching them. I hope you find your answers regarding how you want to live and how to go further with your career. Regarding tips about English, I guess it is the same as with any other language: study and practice, practice, practice. I would say try to find some other Mexican guy, or any other kind foreigner that would like to talk, practice makes the master. Perhaps there are also language groups where foreigners that want to practice Japanese and native Japanese speakers that want to practice English meet together to drink some coffee and practice the language. That kind of thing at least exists here in my land. I know there are also apps and websites following this concept (language tandem) where people that want to practice some language meet together for free, but I have no experience with them. Anyway, I hope you have a great life!

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thank you for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed it. You're right. I need to speak more, but I haven't been able to. I'm introverted, but I'll speak up more! Thank you!

[@OnceUponADoctor]

You are a wonderful human. Any chance you have some free time when I visit Tokyo Japan to walk around? I’m from the US and don’t like touristy/busy spots. I just want to do things like this. 🔥

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thanks for watching!I'm glad to hear that Oh you're coming to Tokyo! There are quiet and calm places in just a little outside of Tokyo, so have fun! Thank you for your comment from the US!

[@mlaing37]

You're too critical of yourself. You are not your thoughts. English good.

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thank you for watching! You might be right about that. I'll try not to be too pessimistic. Thanks again!

[@cool_yeti]

Hello Saiko, your video really resonated with me and I wanted to thank you. I was also stuck for some time, and still am in some ways. Try not to worry too much about what you want to do for work, it took me quite some time before I found a job I enjoy. Your English is great, and I hope you keep learning! Sending some confidence all the way from Norway

[@SaikoTakahashi]

Thank you for your very warm comment from far away Norway! Yes, I try not to worry too much and I hope that someday I will find a job that I love as much as you did. And,This is the first comment I've received on this channel, and it's worth a video on its own. thank you!
