I am always left in awe with how you manage your study and social life. Most part of my life i have seen uni students complaining and not talking much about the good side. Uni is stressful i get it. I am in Tech field and sometimes it get so overwhelming i feel like not even god can save me but then you appear and i am so motivated to get back on track. I genuinely cannot put in words to explain how much i love your video and how good impact they leave on me. Can't wait for another episode!!! All the best wishes for your future. Keep inspiring and thriving Zeliha

[@luxendark]

The way you filmed this is very natural, it was comforting and cozy to watch !! I am myself moving to Tokyo alone next september for an uni exchange so I am thrilled to get a glimpse of how you adapt to the life there

My favourite thing in the world to do is go somewhere for the first time.

And my third favourite is stumbling on videos like this one of someone else's first days in a completely new place. Thank you, enjoyed seeing Tokyo through your eyes!

If by chance you read my comment , could I know why you choose to study medicine . I sincerely hope that I can accomplish as much as you . Good luck as you embark on this new adventure .
