I honestly subscribed to your channel because of your Japan-related contents. Nonetheless, I’ll still continue to support you no matter what because I love your humor and personality. Keep the videos coming and hopefully you’ll come back to Japan someday :)
Leilani your sense of humor and creativity will always be with you regardless your location. So I'll will be pleased to keep watching your content. Good luck whatever you are!
I can only speak for myself here but I subscribed to your channel not only because you live in Japan but for you. Your personality is so loving, kind and the way you make vlogs is so therapeutic that I will continue to follow you on your journey through life. You make decisions that a lot of people wouldn't have the confidence to do so the next best thing is to watch someone else move countries and show how its done and share your experiences. I hope to see some vlogs of you in the USA soon with your family or around where you next stay. Stay safe and sending you prayers🙏 🥰
Awww this is quite sad to hear BUTTTTTTTTTT I'm still going to continue watching your vids since you give me joy. I'm ready and staying tune for the next chapter. So happy that you're going to continue making videos also stay safe and have fun!
I first started watching your videos cause of the japan content but i stayed cause of your humour & personality. ❤️❤️ Girl wherever you go I’m looking forward to it!
I'm sad to see you go but also excited for your new adventure. It's a new chapter and it's gonna be a great one! Good luck with the move and hope things go smoothly! ❤️
Babe your videos have given me so much comfort during times of anxiety, you radiate such tranquil and bubbly energy through the screen, thank you so much for being you! I will always continue to watch your content and I can’t wait to watch the next step of your life! :’D
good luck with your moving, love your channel not just for Japan content but for your quirky personality as well, great experience you got there in Tokyo xoxo
Aww I’m so excited for you to be back home and with family! I’m from SoCal as well and there’s just truly nothing like it 💛 Also, my fiancé and I were long distance for 6 years so it’s not impossible! I hope you have a safe trip back, Leilani!
Ooooo I am so excited for your new videos! Honestly loved the Japan content, but mostly because of you! You could live at a swamp and I’d still watch! Lol ❤️
I just discovered you a few days ago and upon looking on your channel, I’m shocked that you’ve just left last year. 😢 Aww, I’m going to binge watch your Japan vlogs and I just love your humor and that’s the reason subscribed. I kinda watch your moving video first and yeah moving out is so stressful. I hope you didn’t get any fine from the mark that was left on the wall. Glad you were able to go back home safe (despite all of the craziness you’ve been through 😓) and hope you get to visit Japan again someday.
Two really good friends of mine did what you did. Post college, moved there a 3-4 years, then came back. They've been state-side for close to 10 years. I know they miss it but wanted to come back for family reasons too (and to also start a family). It's one of those things where it'll always be a powerful part of their journeys but something needed to change. Also re: your videos, there are a lot of vloggers who focus on Japan but you've been my favorite. Japan was the hook, but I stayed for you. Excited to see your new SoCal life! ✨
Of course I love your Japan content but what makes it endearing is you! So I am delighted to keep up with your journey regardless of the location. Wishing you all the best sweetness 💖💕
I discovered your channel only a few weeks ago and I, of course, love the Japan content but I also really love your personality and your amazing humour, that’s why I’m definitely going to stick around and I’m looking forward to videos from the US 🙂
Wow I wasn't expecting this at all! I've been following you since your first video in Japan, because I was trying to figure out how to go and live in Japan (I'm from France) I've watched everrrrry single vid you posted, and it was my fav Japan-related content on YT, you've really inspired me a lot! I love your personality and crazy phases (and Cinnamon) so much, can't wait to see what's coming for you (and for us lucky viewers) Have a good trip tomorrow, stay safe and enjoy coming back to Cali 💕 see you soon gurllll
PLEASE consider moving back to japan after sometime :) i found about your japan videos just yesterday and im OBSESSED with them :) anyways of course i will keep supporting you no matter where you live! xoxo
yeah i came for all the japan content,, but i stayed for you!! your personality & just the vibes in general. super excited for whatever content you’re planning for us next. good luck with the move & your relationship !! :)
I don't know your chanel, but I recognized me in some of your thoughts. I get crazy homesick right after covid striked in Japan, and was unable to move back France because not sure to enter the country again. Also olympics cancellation hit business and some friends decided to leave the country, so I finally went back at the end of my visa in august 2021. I am older than you, I miss Japan often but as a long term life for foreigner it is not so easy... I stayed 3 years without coming back and I still have some reverse cultural shock facts sometimes, even after a year back 😅 Have a good next chapter back in US !
Sad to see you leave, but excited for your new adventure! You inspired me to consider moving abroad when I graduate college, so thank you! Hope all goes well 💜
What a beautiful record you have of your time in Japan! And how nice to see your family again for the holidays. I’ll keep watching what you upload, I like your lifestyle content because it comes from you!
I originally discovered you because of the Japan content but will definitely be staying for you :) can't wait to see what new content you'll create goodluck with everything!!💕💕💕
Well, hun, totally get you because I moved back home this summer after leaving 11 years in the UK so that says something, lol. I quit my job, ended my, frankly, fruitless relationship and re-grouped with my family in Europe. Covid definitely hit me in the same exact way as it has you. International move is a bitch. But totally, in the uncertain reality we've come to live in, it's best to keep your loved ones close. We may never be able to go back to the lifestyles we had pre-Covid. However, you're super fun so even in Cali we'll keep watching your content. Best of luck with your travels & your boo!
I subscribed because I love your vibe and of course you are super funny which is a plus! 🤣 anyway, whether Japan or US just keep creating content! I have lived in many countries around Europe and I know how you feel when you have to leave so much behind. I’m looking to following in your new adventures! Anno nuovo, vita nuova!
I may have discovered your channel because of the Japan content and the algorithm gods, but I stuck around because of your personality so I'm sticking around. Early welcome back to Southern California. It will be interesting to see you document your journey back here and your perspective about life here after having lived in Japan for years. Prepare for the Red Flag warnings because we are back in drought and it's a La Niña year 🙃
Aww, best of luck Lei! Long distance and moving internationally sounds way challenging but I know you'll make it work 😊Can't wait to see your next adventures! Hopefully our paths can cross again in the US someday 😌
I was suggested your first apartment tour and am hooked!! I can’t wait to binge your videos this week and for your next journeys!! You had me at the joke in your first apartment tour when it flashed on the screen that you were going back to the kitchen where you belong lol 🤠💞
For the first time I think that coming back home to America will be a smoother process than going to Japan. Just really bad timing for me to be moving to Japan, after 8.5 years of school and finally graduating last year the timing couldn't have been any worse. As a SoCal native I'm interested in what you like to do back home, looking forward to your next videos 😉
This video hits me so hard. I'm also living abroad for 3 years and just decided to move back to my home country, even if my first intention was to find a job and live here permanently if possible. But just as you said, being unable to visit home because of the pandemic really makes things harder than it should be :( Anyway, I'm so happy for you for finally making this decision! Because for me personally, I felt so relieved when I have enough courage to decide that I'm gonna make a big change in my life (again) by going home :) I saw your recent vlogs and you seem very happy in the US, that's so nice to see and makes me getting more excited go to back home as well (I'm moving back next month, wish me luck!)
Whichever reason ur moving to california is def for ur own good!! I really hope japan treated u well :) and we definitely will miss u! Enjoy america 😊 hope one day u can come here to japan and visit it once again.
Aww don’t worry about it girl! Most of us subscribed because of your personality and the whole feel of your videos. Yes I love Japan content but frankly I’d watch anything you threw together (ie spent precious life hours editing). Heck I may actually develop an interest in visiting California 😂 Wishing you the very best with the move! I’ll be here ready for your next video whenever that is 🥰 thank you for all you’ve done so far 💕
Like most people here I also subscribed to this channel because of the Japanese content but there's more to it... Your sense humour and personality play a big part in making your videos more likeable. Anyways I'm excited to see your journey from here on out. Good luck!
Ok, to be honest, I did subscribe to your channel because of the Japanese contents, as many of your followers did. But what will make me stay or what will make many of your sincere followers stay, is that we want to see more of your heartwarming, fun and cute personality come to life in your videoes. Im looking forward to your next videoes. I am also moving soon, so I hope i could get some tips from you or just to share the same experience of moving. Keep doing what you love and have a safe trip back home
omg this is soooo sad to hear!! i was actually hoping that one day I could hang with u in Tokyo:") anyways, I'm excited to see where your next adventure will take you:) love u
Just recently subscribed. You popped up as a suggestion while watching tokidokitravler. I love my family but I also love being 24 or so hours away from them.
I did subscribe because of the Japanese content, but I reakly enjoyed your energy and personality. If I am remembering correctly, you lived in San Francisco? I think content from anywhere you live will be exciting . I am in Canada and would love to see America through your eyes. Good luck with the move !!
4:27 You're a Japanese passport holder? I thought Japan doesn't allow dual citizenship - they will require you to give up your other citizenship if you decide to use your Japanese passport. How did you get away with that?
I suggest researching on the internet about it. There's close to a million half japanese or people with some japanese bloodline that still hold dual citizenship past 22yrs old. They use the japanese passport to get in japan, then use the foreign nations' passport when they go back to their foreign home country. The japanese government doesn't ask, investigate, or enforce citizens to renounce citizenship status so people will take advantage of it by operating a "don't ask, don't tell" policy. Even though the japanese government doesn't enforce it, it's still illegal by japanese law.
@@yoshidec5029 ah I see. I guess it only becomes a problem when the Japanese passport expires. Like what happened to Hanako san in this video: ruclips.net/video/IT0Up_RLD8w/видео.html
We watch your videos because of you, not your location. Sure a few peeps found your channel thanks to the japan content but we stayed because of you. So don’t worry, we don’t leave. I wish you good luck with the moving stuff and a fresh and nice start in your new life. 🤍

SoCal girl in Germany now but I can also attest that the moving away from home is definitely hard, the logistical side and emotional side

Your personality makes your content, not your location. I'll love your content regardless of where you are based ❤
ok BANGS!!!! so cuteeeeee
Just recently subscribed. You popped up as a suggestion while watching tokidokitravler.
I love my family but I also love being 24 or so hours away from them.
I love your style and personality I'm here for ur vibe not japan...I'm excited to see more videos!
ah man i loved all your japan videos but not as much as your personality as an influencer and human bean
Travel safe! What a lovely record of your time here. Also off topic, but your nails are sick!😍
I did subscribe because of the Japanese content, but I reakly enjoyed your energy and personality. If I am remembering correctly, you lived in San Francisco? I think content from anywhere you live will be exciting . I am in Canada and would love to see America through your eyes. Good luck with the move !!
So beautiful Japan
How can I get a Japanese passport and how do I get a visa so I could live there
Why are you moving?
Do what best for yourself
Now that you have left, you can be more honest about how you felt there. The good and the ugly.
What’s happening with your partner ??
I'll miss ur channel ://
I’ll still be making videos!🤍
Wonder how this popped up in my recommendations
