RULES:
- Think of my streams as being invited to my house. If you enjoy it and behave well, you are welcome to stay. If you don’t like it you can leave. But if you are annoying, leaving rude comments or being disrespectful, it will most likely just lead to me closing the door to you and never let you in again. I use the ban function very liberally.
- Comments about individual people that appear in the background of my video will be removed.
- Read the FAQ (below) before asking questions.
- Generic questions about Japan/Tokyo are better asked to Google.
- Avoid foul language (as it might be blocked by Google and/or channel moderators).
- Do not communicate exclusively in emoji.
- Use English or Japanese in the chat.
- Sexist, racist, xenophobic or other comments deemed inappropriate will likely lead to an immediate ban.
- Arguing with the moderators will most likely also get you banned.
- Don't spam.

FAQ:
Where are you from? Are you Japanese?
- I am Swedish.
For how long have you lived in Japan?
- I came to Japan in 2008.
Why did you move to Japan?
- I was interested in Japan since I was a child, largely thanks to growing up playing a lot of (Japanese) videogames as well as a brief interest in anime during my teenage years. When I finally came here for the first time I felt that it was a really nice and interesting country, and I decided to do what I could to move here permanently.
How did you get a visa to Japan?
- It's complicated and my case is quite different from most, as I've always been self-employed. But basically, as long as you can show the immigration authorities that you have a stable income, there's usually a way. Personally, I was here on journalist visas until a few years ago when I got married. Now I have a spouse visa.
Do you work in Japan?
- Yes, I'm a photographer. Currently, most of my work is related to tourism and travel in Japan, but I also do portrait photography as well as documentary work. I used to write news stories and articles about Japan as well, mostly for newspapers in Sweden, but for the last 3-4 years, my work has been almost exclusively about photography. Sometimes I appear on TV too.
What camera do you use?
- My live walks are recorded with my phone, a Samsung S21 ultra, mounted on a DJI OM4 Gimbal. 4K videos are mostly shot with an iPhone 12 Pro Max but sometimes also a DJI Osmo Pocket or DJI Pocket 2. For my "real work", I mostly use a Nikon Z7, but I also have a Z6, Fujifilm X-T3, Leica Q, Sony RX1R mk II and Ricoh GR III that comes with me from time to time.
What advice would you give to someone wanting to move to Japan?
- Study, learn a skill that's in demand in Japan. There are plenty of available jobs here. Some knowledge of the Japanese language would also help a lot, not just to get you a job, but also so that you can actually enjoy life while living here as well.
How did you learn Japanese?
- I went to language school in Tokyo for one year in 2010-2011. After that, I've also taken some online courses and studied on my own.
How many languages do you speak?
- Swedish, English and Japanese reasonably well, and also a bit of German, as I lived there before coming to Japan.
Will you make bicycle videos?
- No. Streaming and interacting with my viewers while riding a bike would be too dangerous.

[@pilotgrrl1]

My love for shotengai started in Asakusa. It's nice to see at least one of them looking more lively! I'm going to have to go down to that underground passageway and visit the sake bar, then up to the tourist information office to see the view!
