- As an island or municipal JET, I am thrilled to share with all of you my apartment in Nagano, Kitadaito Island, Okinawa, Japan. I am thankful to my BOE for providing me such a wonderful apartment.
![[ VLOG 3 ] My $210 Japanese Apartment Tour! [ 2022 JET PROGRAM ]](/img/1.gif)
I love persimmon. Yummm!!!😋
Me, too!
I stumbled upon your facebook page and decided to check your channel. Thank you for sharing your experience, it motivates me.
Glad to know that Zia. Thank you. Good luck. :)
This is very inspiring, Mr. Carl. God bless you!
Thank you Rosalie. God bless you more.
You've definitely got the most unique placement I've seen on RUclips, seems cool!
Hi, Bob Franklin! Thank you. I also think so. Everything that I am experiencing while working and living on this island is none of what I expected my life in Japan would be. I love it here.
Wow what a great apartment! and in Okinawa, what a dream! 🤩 hope you have an amazing experience there! All the best.
Thank you so much for watching this video. Your vlogs are amazing. Keep them coming.
Wonderful apartment and placement, Carl! All the best! Excited to see a vlog of you touring us around the island. Hoping to visit you there, too! I think island living is particularly agreeable to Pinoy JETs cause we grew up in, well, the islands. 😅 It’s like being on an extended vacation. Padayon! 🎈
Couldn't agree more. Although this was not my initial idea of Japan, I have come to love this island, my island. This is an experience of a lifetime. Kaya sakay na! HAHAHAHAH
@@carlbensonvlogs I am sure you'll earn a lot of beautiful experiences and great friends there! Prepare na a room so I can visit and bulabog your island life! 😆
YAYYYY!!! New video. Such an awesome place they gave you. Great tour and location!! You have a great energy on the camera 🇯🇵🙏🗾
Tempat yang luar biasa yang mereka berikan padamu. Tur dan lokasi yang luar biasa !! Anda memiliki energi yang besar di kamera 😁
Thank you Dr. Justin. I appreciate such feedback. By the way, I don't speak and understand Bahasa Melayu although I used to work in Brunei Darussalam before but didn't learn the language. HAHAHA. I was speaking in Filipino in this video too.
@@carlbensonvlogs awww, i tried to translate it correctly 😂 ok next time in Tagalog?
@@DrJustininJapan Hahaha. Yeah. That would be awesome. :)

I can feel that they like you so much po sir. You are very lucky on your placement. Kung pag-iipon punta mo sa Japan, you are on the perfect spot. Keep safe po palagi!🧡
That's right po. Malayo rin kasi sa temptations like shopping. hahaha. Kaya siguro dito ako nilagay ni Lord. :)
he has the perfect location as someone who also lives in Japan right now!!
Hoping to get a spot too sir. ALT 2022 applicant here. Been looking forward to enjoy what Japan could offer. Praying faithfully for that.❤️ I'm following your vlogs for more information. Makes me more excited too.

You’re so blessed with your BoE!!! They seem really nice. 😊 And great apartment sir! I’m thrilled that now i know someone in Okinawa na! ☺️🥰
Yes po Jara Sensei. They are so nice. Salamat po. It's funny kasi wala pa rin ako kilalang JETPH ALT who is assigned dito sa Okinawa hanggang ngayon. 😅
@@carlbensonvlogs Any idea kung ilan kayo sa Okinawa? Di bale, hope fully magmeet na kayo soon. 😊
@@jaravelling Sa batch po namin ako lang ang napadpad sa Okinawa. I asked Teacher Macs din wala daw syang kilala na ALT sa Okinawa. I also asked sa OkiJETs FB group kung may Pinoy. Walang sumagot. hahahaha.
wow.. so excited na po.
I notice palagi ka po nauuna sa comments. hehehe. Thank you po for watching and the support.
Hope to be part of the program too. I will bring some of the delicacies and things that would represent Sorsogon, Bicol.🥰🥰🥰. I claim it na and see you soon Teacher Carl! God bless and stay safe.

Hi! I like this vlog. :) I used to live in Naha, Okinawa po for a year and 6 months before nalipat sa Tokyo after then Kansai region na now under working visa. :) Congratulations! Please visit Naha city as well when you can as well as Okinawa city. :) May Philippine store din po sa Okinawa city. There are lots of acitivities you could do as well in Oki and also their food is amazing. :) Enjoy your journey po, sir. :)
Thank you so much po. Wow. Naha and Okinawa City sound exciting po. Paghahandaan ko ang pagpunta sa don para sulit ang plane ticket hahaha. Are you a fellow JET participant po?
@@carlbensonvlogs Yep, it truly is. Okinawa is perfect for road trips, food trips, and island hopping activities. Basta ready lang yung itinerary. :)
Nope. It was Jan 2018 when I went to Naha, Okinawa to study Japanese under Student visa program po, Sir. :) Pero nag ALT po ako sa Tokyo summer of 2019 right after graduation under private dispatch company. As of the moment, I live in Shiga and currently working sa eikaiwa company naman po. :)
@@thesbiejanne Mas naexcite tuloy ako to visit mainland Okinawa. Thank you po. I hope you have having a great time teaching. :)
Hayyyy.. if only I watched this vlog firs before I wrote my placement choices and submitted my application form, I would've chosen island too. But, who knows... 🤞☺️ thanks for this.
Don't worry po. JET Programme will give you the best placement. I didn't realize I needed this but I remember, I emphasized in my application how badly I want to save up. Kaya siguro dito nila ako nialagay.
Sana all sir I am also applying the said program batch 2022 hope and pray to be the group too
Don't stop praying about it. Kapit lang!
Hello po! Pinapanood ko mga video ng mga ALT. Mukhang ikaw ang may pinakamalaking apartment sir then ang mura pa. Mukhang mababait mga teachers diyan at ang dami nilang binigay sayo.
Thank you po for watching. Maybe sa city or inaka sila. I guess kaya malaki tong apartment ko kasi my BOE prepared an apartment for any ALT who is either single or coming with a family.
@@carlbensonvlogs bagay sa akin ang Island placement para makatipid. Impulsive buyer po kasi ako😅 Then para maiba din po ang view because I lived and worked in the city for 17 years. 😁
@@chin7391 SAMEEEEEEE hahaha.
@@carlbensonvlogs 🤣
Salute! I had a little more of the craving to be part of the JET Programme. This video is truly inspiring!
Just a question, do you live there alone, teacher? 😳
Thank you for watching po. Yes po, I live alone in this apartment.
@@carlbensonvlogs Thank you for your response and may you be blessed more by the Lord. Ingat po!
@@ralfhemersonmacapagal1391 Thank you very much po. God bless your JET application. Hope to see you in Japan next year!
Wowwww so inspiring po Sir Carl! Btw sa letter po, Carl Sensei po yung japanese characters ☺️.
Oo nga hehehe. Thank you po. :)
@@carlbensonvlogs Hi Sir Carl, I tried to recall what you said po sa live chat about sa demo lesson, was it 5 mins po or 10 mins po during your time? Thank you so much Sir 🙇🏻♀️
@@jchannelsilentvlogs 10 minutes po. 😊
@@carlbensonvlogs thank you so much sensei! Take care po 😊
@@jchannelsilentvlogs You're welcome po! :)
Crush po kita Sir Carl. 😘😘😘 I hope I’ll be able to clinch a spot this year po 😘🥰💖 Keep safe and sound po.
Keep praying about it. See you soon in Japan po!
@@carlbensonvlogs Magdilang anghel po sana kayo 😘🇯🇵 Hopefully, in God’s grace po 😘
@@geraldatchaso4901 CLAIM it! :)
Congratulations, yong fruit persimmon yata namr non heheh
THANK YOU po. Yes po, persimmon po. 😊😊😊
Good Day! I am currently a 4th year college and I want to appy for JET 2 years from now. May I know what books or tips you did to be fluent in speaking english, because I am not that confident on my english vocabulary. That is why, I made a goal that the 2 years before I apply, I will enhance my english skills. Thank you!
Hi Star Dust! All I can suggest is to gain volunteer or work experiences relevant to teaching. After graduating from college, I worked in several schools either face to face or online. As the years pass, you'll learn, gain more confidence, and become better in this field. I also took TESOL course to enhance my skills. Not only it will improve your understanding and usage of the English language, it will also help you land better opportunities along the way. I wish you the best in your career.
@@carlbensonvlogs thank you so much! Stay safe and god bless!
Grabe sir, nakakakilig!
Oh diba? Wala pang LOVE TEAM yan ah. hahahaha
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Sanaol! I wrote cities in my preference sana sa island or rural area din Ako pag palarin sa 2022. Ang mura ng rent, sanaol subsidized by the BOE.
BTW new subscriber here. Keep vlogging Po.
Thanks for watching and subscribing po. Maraming cases ng JET ALTs apartments ang subsidized. Pero ESID pa rin talaga.
O nga Po esid. Sana makatanggap din Ako Ng mahiwagang email sa January God willing. Looking forward to seeing your day in a life of an alt
@@thebeshies4398 Sure, I am thinking of doing that soon po. :)
I want to be part of JET program. 🥺
Go for it! :)
Carl sensei, meron poba dyan mga kobini or 7/11?
Hello! Dito sa island ko, walang mga konbini. Sadboi. HAHAHAH
Hi sir! Hehe I’ve received my placement with interac west and one of the possible prefecture na pde ko mapuntahan is okinawa…actually wala naman po ako problema mapunta sa super rural area but Okinawa parang malayo sa kabihasnan masyado 😅 hmmm not that I am not thankful pero super nakaka anxious po ata? I don’t know if I make sense hehe. Pero sir kamusta po ang weather jan? Lumalamig din po ba sya during winter?
Wow. Congratulations po. Hope to see you around Okinawa. 🥰
Parang Baguio weather lang dito pag winter.
saya naman jan, naku city pa naman nilagay ko if ever talaga matanggap ako hehe. wala ka po bang kasama jan teacher carl na JET teacher?
Remember that a city placement has a lot more to offer in terms of experience. I think kahit saan ka maassign sa Japan, talagang maeenjoy mo. Hope to see you in Japan! :)
Ako lang po ang nag-iisang JET ALT here on the island. Kaunti lang ang students kaya isa lang enough na for now.
Hahahaha tawang tawa ako sa jokes nyo sir hahaha
Mabuti at bumenta naman sayo HAHAHAH. So pano? See you in Japan!
@@carlbensonvlogs Hoping and praying na mapasama ako sa 2022 JET na papasa sir more jokes pa po and updates about JET and your experiences in Japan 🙏
@@itsmecarol7984 Sure po. Thank you po for the support! :)
Hi, Sir Carl! Thank you for this video, very inspiring with matching humor. Natawa ako sa part na "hindi ka nga mamamatay sa covid, mamamatay ka naman sa ***inaudible word. hahahah! Sir, I have a question. Where are your assigned schools located? Around vicinity lng po ba? no need mag commute? Hope to hear from you, sir. Thank you!
HAHAHAHA. My school is located on an island called Kitadaito. Locate mo sa google map, baka isipin mo wala na sya sa Japan. Hahaha. Malapit lang ang school sa apartment ko. 3 minute walk lang so no need to commute. Sobrang lapit lang din sa clinic, grocery store, barber shop, sa bank, munisipyo, at BOE. Buti nga pwede lakarin at yan lang din naman ang exercise ko bukod sa pag nguya ng pagkain. 😆😆😆
Oh just to be clear, 3 schools ang pinupuntahan ko. Ung Cram School 1 minute walk away. Ung Elementary and Junior High school naman is 3 minute walk away from my apartment. Tapos un preschool katapat lang non. Walking is life here. 😁😁😁
@@carlbensonvlogs HAHAHAHAHA! Syempre sir sa Japan parin noh! hahahahha.. good for you po lapit lng pala.. saka super convenient/tipid no need for bicycle/pamasahe.. thank you so much for your prompt response! Sir, sa tingin mo sa lahat ng island placement ay ganyan kalapit mga schools or ESID parin ang mga island placements?
at saka........ ok din po internet and signal jan po noh? regardless kung island po noh? Eh Japan parin kaya tlgang ok technology nila .. hahahhaha..
@@makisan3483 I cannot speak about other island placement. Pero I think, lahat ng BOE is inaasikaso talaga nila ung JET ALT's. Maayos ang treatment kasi ako lang ang nag iisang ALT dito. Kumbaga un attention nila is undivided. Oo, tipid dito. May restaurants din pero ngayon napapa Luto nalang ako para maka tipid.
Hi, Sir Carl! I know this is slightly unrelated, but can I just ask something about the JET application? During the screening process, did they call & interview your referees already? I was worried because I applied this year but one of my referees would be out of reach for quite some time so I’m wondering if they actually call on the referees and if so at which stage/part of the process it could possibly be… I hope you can enlighten me. 🥺
Hi Justine. Sorry, I cannot answer your question. Di ko na rin kasi natanong ang mga referees ko if they were contacted before I got shortlisted or any time along the process. Don't think about it na. You still have another one just in case you pass the first screening, I think the embassy will contact you for another character reference if they need it. Opinion ko lang to, pero I think what matters at this point is your SOP.
@@carlbensonvlogs Thank you so much for the reply, Sir Carl. I appreciate it so much. Wish you’re doing well there in Okinawa. Stay safe po! 😊
@@justinepearlcastro7609 You are welcome po!
Nakapunta ka na po ba sa Naha city sir diyan sa Okinawa? I think may mga electronics and furniture shop doon. Secondhand or brand new. ☺️ O kaya Amazon Japan po.
Hindi pa po. Pag iipunan ko ang pag punta don para hindi lugi sa pamasahe hahaha.
@@carlbensonvlogs Can’t wait to see your vlog there!
@@eloised.2546 Thanks po. :)
The twang. 🤪😁😂
HOOOOOOOOYYYY hahahaha

@@carlbensonvlogs bukas po playt ko.
@@sherwinauman Ay nasa airport na kami. Dito na kami magovernight para masundo ka. HAHAHAHA
in'expose niyo naman po si sir ziggy 😂😂😂
HAHAHAHA. Nag-Hi! lang naman ako kay Ziggy ah. 🤣🤣🤣
Hello po. I'm a former trainee who worked in Japan for 3 years. One of the eligibilities is that you did not lived in Japan for 6 or more years. I came back in the ph last 2016 and applied this year. Question po Sensei, do you know anyone who has the same situation as mine? Baka kasi maligwak agad ako because of this. . If ever I pass the application makakaalis po ako ng saktong 6 years kaya medyo nagwoworry ako,bka sobrang strict sa years of stay. Arigatou
Hi Charles! As per your experience working in Japan for 3 years, I don't think you have anything to worry about kasi ang di pwede yung nagwork or tumira sa Japan for 6 years in total or more.
@@carlbensonvlogs ay oo nnga Sensei. I was just overthinking. Thank you for the response. Merry xmas 🙂
@@charlesunhoop2768 hahahaha. Merry Christmas! 😁🎄
4000¥??! That’s so cheap! 😅
Ganern na nga Mhikie. hahahah
Please speak English or translate.
Sure, Tanya! Thanks for the suggestion. :)
