February was full of cafes and two into-nature trips. I was really excited to get outside and to try some new cafes. In this video, let's go kayaking, drink Starbucks, and try out the cafe Ruben.

This is my #JETVideoContest2024 entry. I chose the prompt "花鳥風月" or "the beauties of nature". Ibaraki is not known for its tourism, but it is a gorgeous prefecture. I wanted to show everyone what I see living here.

First Month Living in Japan
Просмотров 691Год назад
Let's reminisce about what it was like the first month living in Japan after my arrival on the JET Program 2022.
I appreciate your editing style! You had a nice mix of scenery and interpersonal goofin', and I always appreciate a voiceover giving more context to the video. Also, I liked that your camera movements were pretty steady? It's a little thing, but so many vlogs out there are totally nauseating with their swaying around lol Looks like you all had a blast! Thanks for showing off these flower parks - I'd been wondering what they looked like, but photos were only getting me so far. <3 (Side note I am shaking your hand about delayed update-dates, because posting videos shortly after they're recorded is hard!!)
Thank you so much! I always try to do something better in the next video from the last one. One day, I'll get a consistent upload schedule...one day.
It's so fun to experience it all again through your video. You have some great shots in there, and the chill music is great!
It was such a good time! I'm glad the video took you back 😊
Those flowers are stunning! I love the vibrant colors and variety. <3
Faith! I just found your channel! I'd love to see an update of the apartment since all this time has past! Also you're experience thus far with teaching, your city, etc!
I love those ideas! I'll see what I can do😊
Hi! I am also Faith & will be coming to Japan as a JET ALT as well!! :))) love the video
Yay! It's cool to see another Faith, and congratulations on getting into the JET Program!!
@@ThisWanderingFaith ikr we’re rare! & thank you !! I’m excited 😆
Hey! I’m so happy I discovered your channel, I’m actually moving to Japan this year in August! Quick question, how’re Japanese clothing sizes? I’m not sure if people are over exaggerating in the states but could you find clothing/shoes in your size?
Congratulations on moving here in August!! In the US, I wear a 14/16 bottoms and XL-2X in tops. In Japan I wear a LL (like a 2X) - 4L. It depends on the brand and style. It's not hard to find clothes online. I never find anything in stores. For shoes, I wear a 6-1/2 - 7 in the US and a 24 in Japan. I never have an issue with shoes in stores or online. My friends who are taller than the Japanese standard have troubling finding pants that are long enough. I have a couple friends who have to order shoes online because their feet are out of the Japanese standard for women. Sorry for the long reply, but I hope it helped 😅
How is your experience on the program now?
I still really liking it. It didn't take long for everything becomes life as usual. Teaching is what you make it. It can provide a constant challenge of wanting to be better and do more. It can also just be chill and relaxing if you want too. I like a mix of both😊
Nice!
I love your videos.
Thank you!
That kayaking looked SO fun! I hope you're able to find a place with beginner rapids-maybe without the cold hands this time. :) Also that Starbucks looked SO good! The artistry is half the taste as far as I'm concerned and it looks like they nailed it. :). Great vid! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you! I love how cute and pretty restaurants make things out here ❤️
The self-awareness in the beginning is literally iconic. Also, keep up the good work! This vid was so cool. :)
🤣Thanks! And thank you🥹I'll do my best!
Thanks for sharing your adventures-esp all the food! That sweet potato croissant looked divine!!! Btw- you look beautiful in all the videos. ❤
Thank you!😊 I'm glad you're enjoying them!
Hi Faith, are you based in the rural area or city? And how is it like living there?
I think most people in Japan would consider it rural. To me, it feels like living in the suburbs. I really enjoy the peace of it. If I want some city comforts, the capital city is a 40-minute train ride away and about 2 hours for Tokyo. The only downside is I like outdoor hobbies, which are usually found in rural areas, which means a car is essential if you want to save time traveling and money.
Hello neicey!!! I LOVE your videos. Thanks for sharing your life in Japan!
Thank you so much 🤗
These are my favorite <3
Hi Faith, I'm finished with my 5 year degree, and I just want to know if teaching the students is nerve-wrecking or if one can adapt over time. I'm thinking of applying next year for the 2025 year as applications open in August if I'm not wrong. Are you in the rural or urban placement?
I think in the beginning most alts are nervous, but we get used to the classes. So, in that regard, you definitely adapt over time. The lingering nerve-wrecking thing for me is always having to call on students instead of them just volunteering to answer questions. I only know about the American applications, and those usually open in the fall (arrival to Japan is in August). As for my placement, I think it's considered rural, but to me it's like living in a suburb. Good luck on your application! I think it's worth applying even if you aren't sure,. You can always decline the interview if you decide you don't want to do it anymore 😊
The cherry blossom trees and the tulips were stunning! Also the fraps and breakfast look delicious. It looks like you're having so much fun!
It has been really fun! I've really enjoyed the flowers and food here 😊
Welcome to Japan ! とても美しい動画ですね。 紅葉の時期については少し残念でした。 次は桜の季節に来てはどうでしょうか？ きっと楽しめると思いますよ😊
春にさくらを見ました。とてもきれいでした🌸
I think I'm going to have to come visit you 😋
Come visit me!!! I don't speak Japanese so we can struggle together.
HA! Sounds like a plan.
I do love your "bloopers" and "end of video musings" 😂😂😂
Loved this!!!! I just subscribed so I’ll catch up and can’t wait for the next one!! You look sooo much like your mom!!!!❤
