Such a nice video, thank you for that! I hope you get well soon! Oh and I wouldn't say your voice was unpleasant to listen too, so no worries in that regard!
hi! sorry if this seems a bit weird, but as a psychology student I would be really interested in hearing about your experience getting a therapist in japan and how it went :)
me too! i'm not a psych major but i do wanna try going to a therapist in Japan. but i've heard pretty negative stuff about it and I know mental health awareness and services aren’t that great here so I was surprised to hear she had a positive experience and it actually helped.
eeep! Going to a uni in the states, they had traditional quads (2 rooms, shared shower, then another 2 rooms) and each floor having access to a medium sized kitchen. In addition to the main dorms, there were apartments yet people were lazy af even in smaller living arrangement. Each apartment had a kitchen and 2 bedroom, 2 bath. Thus you were sharing with fewer people than the dorms. Sadly I was the only person cleaning up after I used the kitchen. Maybe if we had a dishwasher, that would have helped more but they were knuckle heads for letting the sink fill up with dirty dishes x.x Not sure I could be paid any amount of money to live like that again x.x
I applied for Nagoya Uni and did not make the interview. I wondered if you could give any insight or tips on how to increase that success rate? I know it's highly competitive and I probably shouldn't be surprised that I didn't make it!
To be fair, in terms of comparing US apartments to the price of the dorm, you're paying $145/month for 1 room and a small bathroom. I pay $600 for 2 bedroom, 2 bath, a living room, a kitchen, a garage, and already provided appliances (apartment came with fridge, washer/drying, and dishwasher.) Granted, I know there are many places in the United States much more expensive than that, but what I'm saying is the value of the dorm room is highly subjective, and dependent upon where in the US you are actually from. If you're from New York, yeah, that is an absurdly low price for rent. But if you're from Tennessee or something, it's kinda average, you know? That said, there aren't really places you CAN rent for $150/month in the US, so if you're ok with the small space, the fact that that is even an option is a great thing, especially for young people.
You realize that places in dorms are limited and that not everyone who wanted to, got their room, yet you straight up admit not living there and using it as some sort of storage unit? Have thoughts of people being poorer than you and actually needing accommodation ever crossed your mind? This would have been funny if it wasn't that sad.
Little question. Is there not a shortage of dorms and living places in general in Japan. Why didnt you pass your dorm to another student who really needed it?
good question! so first of all NU accepts a limited number of exchange students each semester to ensure that there's more than enough resources available (including dorms). second, when I studied abroad the Japanese borders were still closed off to many students due to covid policies, so actually a lot of the dorms stayed empty :( on my floor in particular there was only 1 other exchange student and a couple local students. I totally get where you're coming from though, thanks for bringing that up
Hi! I'll be going to Nagoya University to study law for a year starting September 2024. I was wondering if you could tell me a bit about how 'international' the city and university are, and whether there are many students from Europe?
@@derekapkhi, i will go there as an exchange student but i would like to do an internship as well. can you share a bit about what your field of study is and under what programme you are having an internship. Thanks.

Well hii, i just found ur video Actually im from india northeast so im just thinking to come over there for study purpose so can u tell me is it good to study and living purpose in there huh ? And what bout the needs and all ?
Hi Alise, great video as always ❣️ would love to hear all the backstories you mentioned (like the therapy one!), and glad to know you're doing better a year after! Take care!
Strange that you had a gas bill? Like everything looked like it would run off of electricity. I'm not even sure a pilot light would even be that cheap.
I think most Japanese kitchens still have gas stoves and also gas water heaters. So regardless of where one lives in Nagoya they get bills from Chubu Electric Power and Toho Gas.
@@willowwillow9370 Yet the kitchen is shared. How are they going to charge students when anyone in the dorms can use the gas? I also assume the hot water to the room was a central boiler and something not metered to each room.
Plz help! I am a Bangladeshi students. I want to study in Nagoya University. The undergraduate program is a mechanical engineering, with 30 scholarships worldwide. 1. How to Apply for Nagoya University and Global 30 Scholarships? 2. What are the ingredients to get admission in the university and get 30 scholarships worldwide?
Heyy, I will go to NU next semester (April 2024) in Graduate School of Engineering. You can apply at NU with MEXT Scholarship, and askrd for G30 Program. You have to prepare some common files such as Research Plan, IELTS/TOEFL, etc. But the most important is Research Plan
I don't think that's the case! I chose to rent the dorm to have my own space if I needed it and have an easier way to meet other international students. But if I could go back in time I would probably save my money because I rarely ever went to the dorm haha
I find it a bit sad if its so that you must post this tour a year later because of being afraid of stalkers. (I wonder if that is a real issue like -> danger/harassment or so. But I’m not a girl so what do I know about how far guys actually go?) I followed you quite a long time (from a year before you went to Japan or so and I would guess you can say "I know a bit about you as a YT’er." But not any private information. i don't know you personally. I just watch your videos. Yet, I would not even if I tried, be able to find out your real full name or what dorm you stayed. Nor travel around the whole world unannounced. (I traveled to Greece one time for a girl. But I was in direct contact with her, we had meet the summer before. We had had a romance then. And where I grew up I think that was very bold done compared to all the guys I know. I could be wrong though.) When it comes to stalking my experience is that it is actually people you know rather than strangers. People in your social circle. Like friend of a friend, classmate, x or colleague. Not that it’s not so that you can reach out to strange people with bad manners from YT. But they must be top detectives if they gonna stalk. I would hope, as long as you keep your real name private. Address and phone private. And not tell us exactly data. Like dorm room number this or that address or so. That you will not get any trouble. Then again. You do you and I could be wrong. Anyway. Have a good day, night or whatever it is 😃
Such a nice video, thank you for that! I hope you get well soon!

thank you for watching!! and I'm glad you didn't mind my sick voice haha
You are so smart that you are going to study at Nagoya University!
A beautiful campus. I used to live about a mile and a half from there. And of course it's the top university for all of central Japan.
全然！I am very lucky to have the opportunity to study here!
@@4alise I hope your study and life at there will be good ones!
Is it that popular University?
Please make a detailed video on how you get admission in Nagoya University

So you went to even bigger university. WOW. I went to Nagoya University of Foreign Studies in 2022.
