11:00 you might find some king-size duvet covers and sheets in hola or ikea. If you want to have more choices, you should go to bedding store like '床枕e專家', '山鶯寢飾', '柔瑟家具名床寢具' and so on. You could search chinese key words like '寢具'(bedding), '被套'(duvet cover), '床包' (bed sheet) with your living city name in google map to look for these bedding stores. 12:53 yes, it's msg + salt. One teaspoon is 5 gram. It's lacto vegetarian version.

The green bottle one you asked is lacto-vegetarian version, and yeah it's MSG+salt. There should be a green spoon in the bottle, use it as a measurement. Usually we put one spoon when cooking a 3-4 person dish, so maybe try1/4 or1/2 spoon first.

All the food from this episode looks so good! I would highly recommend not storing your oil in the container you had bought in this episode because the air makes the oil oxidise really fast and can actually make it go rancid faster, so keeping it there in small amounts and taking some out of another large storage container every so often for convenience should be fine, but storing most of your oil in there could be a bad idea.

They're pretty expensive here in hawaii but all her japanese friends were raving about them on their facebook pages so she just had to try them. Wish she hadn't, they're $4 each

Did you personally have any issues going to onsen or sento while living in Japan with you tattoo? I've heard that a lot of places are starting to allow foreigners with tattoos entry.

[@LayersOfJenn]

Well, they "say" a lot will let people enter but I have yet to hear anything more. I have only been allowed into one public onsen with tattoos in Hakone. The rest (Shimane, Nagano, Hakone again, etc) I wasn't allowed to enter so hubby & I rented private rooms always. The same applies for public pools. If you hotel has a pool, there is a strong chance you won't be allowed to enter. When in doubt, always ask!

Ahh I'm having a super bad week but been waiting for this video since I saw bits on insta 😊 Is it really expensive having to furnish such a large place compared to Japan, are things expensive? I know you did the conversion for the meat but I don't eat meat so I have no idea if that's expensive 😅

[@LayersOfJenn]

I definitely find some things are expensive but that’s why I’m sticking to IKEA, Nitori, and muji (more affordable places)

[@veganryori]

@@LayersOfJenn ah ok, that's so funny, Muji is incredibly expensive in the UK 😅 But amazing there's Daiso there (wish we had Daiso!)

[@franklinthewoman]

ahh it just melts my heart to see you (and hear T 😂) exploring the city and practicing your chinese! btw why did you guys send boxes to your in-laws too?

[@LayersOfJenn]

They took some things we didn’t bring to Taiwan for themselves if other family members. (Tv fridge etc) & then took care of the garbage for us since we didn’t have time to book through the city
