Finland is very calm, clean and the nature is beautiful. Forests and lakes everywhere. First I recommend during summer because we have the midnight sun.

Finland does seem stunning :) thank you for sharing your view! I do have some questions I wanted to ask to someone familiar with Finland, I hope you don't mind. I wonder if you can get by without a car in Finland, and how the public transport system is? And is it safe to go hiking alone, are there hiking trails throughout the country or is it possible to just hike freely without being in danger for getting lost or for any wild animals? I don't know much about Finland yet but eager to hear from someone who does :)

10:47 This part reminded me of one experience I had a few years ago: I went grocery shopping with my family, and we happened to run into a group of 4 Japanese young adults who were cycling on the coast from Canada to Mexico. They happened to take a break at the grocery store by my house, in Southern California (we decided to reach out to them since we overheard them speaking Japanese), so we invited them over since I was having a party with my friends. They felt right at home since our household language is Japanese, while also getting a slice of American life, by partying with my friends. Being California, near the Los Angeles County, there was beer and marijuana at the party. Needless to say, those 4 cyclists got high for the first time in their lives. Despite the stigma on weed, especially in Japan, they wanted to try it anyway. We all had a great time that night. Thank you for the video!

I hope you can go abroad soon! If you come to America, you can get quite a different experience or impression depending on which city you choose. Some cities are more diverse and more open-minded than others. These ones I recommend, but maybe you can go to multiple cities during your stay. We have the Amtrak train you can take around the country. It's also a great way to see sceneries of America. They have beds on the train too! 1. NYC - biggest city, subway/don't need car, very diverse. They call it the city that never sleeps 2. Southern California (Los Angeles, San Diego) Northern California (San Jose, San Francisco) - Sunny warm weather, lots of palm trees make you feel like you're on vacation. Very diverse(lots of Asians). Many events and activities. Especially in LA. Food hub of many different cultures 3. Washington, DC - Capital of U.S. Smithsonian Museum is free. Lots of things to do, architecture to see. 4. Hawaii - nice sunny weather, diverse, many Japanese restaurants and people here. Like you're on vacation. Many tourists. 5. Seattle, Washington - Diverse, Liberal, weather is usually cloudy. One con about U.S. is that we are a car-dependant society, which I don't like. I really like public transportation like the trains in Japan. So you will see that there are a lot of roads for cars and everything is more spaced out. NYC will give the closest feel to Tokyo.

"I also wanna be based in Japan because of the food and toilets." TBH I can relate. I miss the food in Japan and it was so easy to find a free public toilet in Tokyo. Just go to any train station or department store. Some convenience stores like 7-11 and Family Mart also have public restrooms that are CLEAN. When I came back to America I realized how difficult it is to find a free and clean public restroom.... especially in NYC!!!! 😒

[@melid4162]

thank you for explaining. I didn't know what he meant specifically!😅 I believe in Europe they say "toilet" to refer to the bathroom but in Canada we say washroom, and I guess in the US it's common to say restroom. I took his comment too literally, and was like what's wrong with the toilet (seats, bowls, etc) 😅😅😅😅

Hi great video. I would recoment Peru if you want to meet some japanese people.

Otherwise I can recommend you to visit Spain and Irland.

[@ryanparkthepandabear]

If you want to come to America, look up the cities where they have a Mitsuwa Marketplace. If a city has one of those supermarkets it's a good sign there's a Japanese community in the area. Over here in Washington DC, there's a handful of Japanese family owned restaurants and stores you can check out if you want to see the differences between larger and smaller Japanese American communities.

I really do love the people here as well! we have some really really breathtaking nature! obviously you won't find much nature in the cities like Toronto, we do have a community in Toronto called "little Tokyo"! lots of Japanese people, restaurants, businesses in general etc. Also something I love about Canada is how different every province is, sometimes there are dramatic changes between provinces in terms of scenery etc.!

[@HaggisIsGross]

Aloha Takashii! I live on Maui in Hawaii. It’s a real melting pot of people from all over, I think you’d be very comfortable here, especially at the university. My hometown is Seattle, Washington and is a welcoming place for travelers too. When they were growing up both of my daughters had Japanese exchange students in their classes and at summer camp in Washington state so it seems a popular destination. I enjoy your channel, keep up the good work!

[@isabelle441]

I'm from 30 minutes south of Seattle but moved away a few years ago! I definitely recommend it for travelers too :)

[@Kaatmast]

If you come to the states, each state has multiple Japanese societies and clubs, so that would be a good way to connect with fellow country men/women. Also Universities have Japanese language programs which would be interesting for you to visit.

[@mrahzzz]

"I want to stay in Japan for the food and the toilets" ... okay, lowkey a big part of what makes me want to make a full move to Japan after being there for a few months... Some issues I encountered scare me away and make me think _I'd_ be a bad fit for Japan (actually working there more than anything), unfortunately, not to mention the difficulty and cost of an international move for most people... *but* that dang food, and the common existence of bidets... they call to me. They make me forget the things that didn't work out for me while I was there. Ah. In my dreams, I guess.

[@jhaymendez8401]

Im from Philippines. Its so inspiring to hear that some Japanese people sharing their experiences. Here in Philippines we have absolute freedom, and our laws here is not so insanely strict just normal average, and l hope you'll explore our culture and our tradition.

[@gfm9565]

I will prefer Japan to other countries although I like Italy and Spain because all the stuffs are clean compared to other western countries and the foods are more delicious than other countries ( I used to think that western countries should be cleaner than Asian countries, but I am wrong after I witnessed. I haven't been USA, Canada and Australia so I don't know if these countries are clean or not but UK and some European countries disappointed me, I don't understand why the people just litter around without caring about their place.) Italian and Spaniard are friendly and passionate and make you happy but it's just superficial emotion, not the feeling of being indeed friends each other.

[@raistlin906]

I don't agree with Spain being that clean but we eat well, that one is right. And you are also right about Spanish behaviour. People may be more talkative and expressive than in other countries, but most of them are not specially nice or friendly on the inside, just superficially. I preffer Japan too.

It’s not as accommodating for taller folks but I’m 5’4 so I had no issues with smaller rooms/bathrooms. I was treated with respect and kindness. I had many lovely interactions and folks expressing curiosity about what brought me to Japan and what I thought about it. Standard of living is nice, but of course more pricey. I didn’t work there so I can’t speak from that point of view. 3. I truly love and respect Japanese people. They had always treated me kindly and with interest. Even the strange encounters I had really didn’t sway me. (I had a guy run from behind me, pinch my butt and bolted before I knew what happened.) I wasn’t even upset. I never had it happen to me before, so it was more of a surprise. I laughed it off and kept on. (This was 97/98). Also New Years in Japan is FANTASTIC. 4.

Good topic. I saw many Japanese who live in bkk as a family. Half of students in an international school are Japanese like they literally settle down in this country. I wonder why they choose to live here where it’s very inconvenience, dirty but yeah.. the food is so good hahaha

Nice channel, very interesting .... What about "Kirishitan" (キリシタン) people nowadays ?

Yuka should visit the west coast of the US, especially Seattle. Many Japanese visit here and many people of Japanese ancestry live here.

I went to college and worked in NYC during a period of high crime. I never saw any crime in Manhattan (and that is were most people go).
