    You’re so considerate of your audience!! I love your camera angles ❤ like how you showed what your Onigiri 🍙 was filled with. It’s those little details that make the video enjoyable. I’ve been binge watching some of your videos because my husband told me he wants to move to Japan. I’m terrified of the thought but I’m also excited to consider it haha. But I love watching your videos!!

    The part where you ask what does it mean: they are the Japanese vowels a-I-u-e-o in that order And I’ll take your pilot G2 and raised it to the Jetstream pens. They are a little fat due to the fact that most of them have blue, black, green, red ink plus mechanical lead pencil but man, they make my handwriting look nicer than normal.

      Yesss enjoy!! And I don't ever throw these "be careful" our lightly but Paris is known for pickpocketing and people walking up to you to distract you -- so don't be afraid to be rude and make sure people are standing right next to you. I wouldn't want your trip to be spoiled by a stolen phone or passport!! OTHER than that EXPLORE and have fun and figure your plans out as you go!!🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

Life here is just so simple and amazing. The freedom is incredible when things are orderly, polite, convenient, and affordable right? Back home, things are just… crumbling and getting scary. Japan is like a peaceful bubble in the world.
