    This is a comparison between US processed junk and Australian processed junk foods. The big difference is that in the USA almost all processed food contains corn oil / corn syrup (encouraged by US government) which spoils a lot of good US ingredients And Chips /fries without chicken salt are not worth eating!

    Good for you hanna , shit happens in life especially dark confusing times but its the way you cope with adversity that brings you out stronger the other side . Youve clearly got your head screwed on so with time and life experience your going to be just fine . Its funny our daughter went through the exact same stuff ( like millions of other young people) but she left australia and is now happily living in europe and is now as happy as a pig in pooh . Your so right we all need enough money to live but happiness is way more important .

      @@MarissaDownUnder A lot of kids wander off to uni or college pick a degree, do 3 to 4 years of study and when they’re finished expect to get offered a job with a 6 figure salary. Teaching degrees, degrees in land management, accountancy. Nursing, just to name a few, aren’t degrees that have 6 figure salaries attached to them straight out of uni. When this happens these people get discouraged and end up flipping burgers or working at Bunnings or waitressing, or doing some menial job that doesn’t pay very much instead of working in the industry they studied for and gaining experience.

    Your vlogs are getting better and better Marissa! It's a cultural holiday! Japan is a fantastic experience but you do have to do some homework and learn a few phrases to get by. It's a very safe country to travel but as a solo western female traveller you should probably stay away from touts in popular club areas like Shinjuku and Shibuya late at night as I understand western girls are often drugged and then worse.. Carrying a bag with you to block gropers on the trains is common advice too!
