You are brave!! Not everyone can do what you've done! Move so far away from home. It just takes time to get adjusted and it's ok to cry. Just remember this is an adventure! You're gonna make a lot of great memories
It is always overwhelming moving so far away from family, especially on your own. Culture shock and homesickness are real. I've moved to different countries a couple of times, though never on my own. Even having family around to support, culture shock is real, and the learning curve is steep and tough. I love that you showed the difficulties of moving to Japan, teaching, budgeting, learning new ways to get around. It's so important that this video is out there so others who are considering moving to Japan can be prepared. Your video is doing a great service - thank you! It takes strength to show your vulnerabilities. I am so impressed with you, with your work ethic, with your determination to continue despite the challenges. You go, girl! You've got this. Keep on keeping on. There will be good times and bad times, and you've got what it takes to get through them all.
It can be a struggle starting out but it wont be forever! You will settle into your new job and adjust. Your in a new environment with new people and laws, you will eventually get use to it, meet loads of new people, and have a group you can rely on. Wishing you the best of luck with your journey in Japan.
Thank you so much for sharing coz I'm gonna be like this coz I know I might not have enough money to relocate to Japan by then and it's very encouraging to see how strong and motivated you are. Thank you for sharing.
Keep your head up love ❤️ your in a beautiful country and the challenges your going through will just make you stronger 💪 cry if you need to and let it out. As long as you can wipe your tears away and take that next step. Sending you prayers and love 💕
Just watched your video and I am full of admiration for you!. To see you pushing to overcome your struggles and doing your absolute best is truly inspiring. I too live in a country that's not my home country or language so I can relate!. There are times when you feel like such an outsider and everything is conspiring against you, but there will also be times when you can experience the joy and beauty you came to this country to find. Whatever happens you can feel proud that you made this great step and chose to grow as a human being. I wish you power and strength, you got this!. ❤️💪
Thank you so much 😭. I really needed this. No one tells you how hard it is to move to a totally different country. I hope you’re doing good where you are ❤️
Congratulations on making it to Japan! I will be moving there for work at the end of July. I can only imagine how isolated and stressed you feel (financial stress is hard enough at home, let alone in an unfamiliar place with a language barrier). Stay strong! I'm rooting for your success!!☺♥
you are doing just fine my love this is only the beginning don't be too hard on yourself , you have taken a huge step and it just shows how strong you are. 😍😍
I have to say you are incredible ! I love you trying to ride the bike, I'm not very talented at it myself and every now and again try to learn/pick it up so I can go on bike rides with the family. Love this!
From how I understand it you can sometimes get issues because you’re not used to the local microbiome so some people drink bottled water when they’re on holiday, but if you’re living abroad it’s much easier to just risk a stomach bug to get your system adapted to it. (this is actually an issue if you move to the US lol because of diet & food differences, they have way less diverse gut microbes and it causes all sorts of issues)
Wow! They allow you carry your tinted hair. I just came across your page here. By God's grace. I will be coming by March. Have completed my application. I am waiting for my application to be evaluated by the management that's what the HR says.
Awwwwwwn, I feel like giving you a really big hug. I felt this way when I left Nigeria in 2013 for school but I made friends quite quickly so I didn’t feel it as bad as I would have if I was all alone. I had crazy experiences but it alll ended welll. You’ll be fine babes. I also plan on coming to Japan and I’d look for you when I do so we can have a meetup 🌹 Sending you tons of love from Nigeria❤️❤️
May God be with you Pls is it hard to enter Japan because I love skill work and from research, I have found out that Japan is good in Tech. Or if there is any cheap country pls suggest because Nigeria is not favourable right now 😢
She’s living somewhere completely new to her. Obviously, she’s going to have stronger opinions on things. Which may not all be good at first, it takes a lot of time to settle into somewhere new
@@journosketch She can cry, there's nothing wrong or weak about crying. While the change is good, the adjustment is still stressful and scary. Crying is good for the body to release some of that stress so she can have more mental clarity to take the next step forward.

Congrats on your training and first day atvwork. I see you also buy items from 2nd Street, which is what we also did.
Thank you. Second street is the best. I’m obsessed with the branch at ginza

Thank you 🙏.
Food - Meat Cheese and Bread. Those vegetables are going to be time and energy consuming to prepare.
I might have a bread addiction 😂. Once I start eating I can’t stop
Please don't cry be strong okay... I'm still applying to come over.
It's well sis 🫂❤️
It is well ooo even inside the well
you can drink tap water in japan! and save some money
Wait!!!! Really???? I didn’t know that 😭😭😭. Everyone in my house drinks bottled water
@@msspreyeSave your money sis 😂
From how I understand it you can sometimes get issues because you’re not used to the local microbiome so some people drink bottled water when they’re on holiday, but if you’re living abroad it’s much easier to just risk a stomach bug to get your system adapted to it.

@@msspreyethat they probably fetch from tap
Where's the location of that Nigerian restaurant abeg
Sending you lots of love and hugs ❤❤
Congratulations baby girl so so proud of you younglady 😘🫂

Please which agency did you apply to ? Borderlink?
I can't disclose, I applied on Gaijinpot. Different companies post their vacancies there. Just apply to plenty.
As long as it looks natural you can tint your hair.
@@msspreyeOk, thank you so much. I watched your other videos. I am glad you are settling in gradually.🤗
Me too! I hope the process will be successful

I am not negative about living in Japan. I’m just struggling seeing as I’m new and adjusting
