This project is built with my love hehe it's a Japanese language school and course that I wish existed when I was studying Japanese.. and now I'm so excited to have it finally come to life!!
We have combined language with culture and experience.
Learning the language is not enough, you need to immerse yourself in the culture to understand the language better and what better way to do that than in the Japanese countryside?
There are so many people who study in the big cities, but they don't get to experience this deeper side to Japan and tend to survive without speaking Japanese in their daily lives.
Being in the Japanese countryside and doing the activities included in the course, it forces you to get out of your comfort zone and practice what you learn in class in a real life setting.
My experience in the countryside of Japan changed my life and it's brought me to where I am today so I hope letting more people experience the countryside will also bring some value to them in one way or another :)
Hope to see some of you at the course!

Guys!! I cannot explain how happy I am about my vision finally coming to life! 😍
For those who cannot be there, I hope you can enjoy it through these snap shots!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Congrats Angela!
Of course when I saw your nice video's then I so much happy god bless you forever my best friend 🌟❤ live long 🙏
田舎の活性化になって素晴らしいと思います。田舎出身の日本人として嬉しいです。頑張ってください！応援してます〜！
おめでとうございます＼(^o^)／
I am so happy for you too. I was smiling the whole time while watching this video. Also it is an amazing, fun and effective idea.
HOLY SHIT.. as an old viewer, I've almost always seen you laugh and smile and be jolly. Seeing you cry made me emotional too.. I could tell how much it all means to you. Great job, but DON'T CRY PLZ 😭
Kunal Ojha I didn’t want to cry... especially in front of everyone on the first day!! 😂
I guess emotion gets the best of us sometimes.. :')
OMG this! definitely felt emotional when I saw that as well.
I agree it was emotional to watch her cry. I was in tears when I was watching this video. She has worked so hard and to see it come to reality was awesome.
Hey guys. I'm 1 of the lucky ones who got to be involved in Angela's project . I feel so humbled by her passion for life.😢 . Please if you get the chance ,jump on board for the ride. Thank you Angela , I am lost for words .!!!!!!!!!👹😎
mark espley haha hey Mark!! Your speech touched me so much 😢
can’t wait to experience the rest of the course with you!!
Seen your dream come a reality is amazing Angela, you are bringing people from different backgrounds for the same thing. Congrats
I'm saving money so that one day I'm able to go to Japan.
Keep your dream. It’s a good one.
I think you're onto something great here. You are hitting onto an untapped niche. Many people are already interested in Japan, but there are so many vlogs about the "Tourist Triangle" (Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka) before you begin to feel like you've seen it all and ask yourself, "Is that all there is to Japan?"
I think you have a great idea and solution for both those interested in Japan and those who live in Japan. Please push as far as you can!
So true I want to live in Japan some day but it hard to learn the language through books and videos it better in real life
Conguratuation! My hometown is IWATE next to AKITA. So, I’m so glad and wanna to say thank you for this project. I wish you’ll get lots of success in the future.
I went to Iwate prefecture in 2016, I really loved it, visited Hiraizumi and Geibikei, I did really enjoyed, next time I want to go to Morioka to see the Sansa Odori festival and eat lots of wanko soba
The students went to Iwate the other day :)
Thank you Angela for creating this and for the honor of being part of this project. Your vision and passion is contagious! And for those who are hesitant to apply, let me just say: take a chance, step out of your comfort zone. I am one of the older students and have found that it is never too late to start a new adventure and learn something new. Follow your dreams!
Thank you so much, Andrew!!
YES! It's never too late!! I'm so proud of you and the other older students for applying and showing people that! You guys all bring something new to the course
A big congratulation to you, Angela for achieving your goal! It's almost as tear breaking for us who have followed you through your journey. I think if you have just lavished on the good/beautiful aspects of Japan, you would have grown your popularity tenfolds and over - instead, you choose to contribute to the reality, the often neglected aspect of Japan. And with that you have my full respect.
Wayne Low Thanks Wayne!
I would rather do things that are more meaningful to me, than care about how popular I am :) Quality over quantity!
No better way to learn about a new culture than to be thoroughly immersed in it! Awesome!
And an equally awesome first group of students you have there! 😎👍
Wow this is so cool. I wish I wasn't poor and could go to this. Keep making videos like these please, these are the closest I'll be to ever going to Japan.
Once everything settles down a bit(financially too), I will try to do something for those who deserve it, but don't have enough funds to come :)
What a beautiful video, andI cried with you Angela!
I don't want to see the Japanese countryside and culture die, as it's too precious!
Good luck with your new adventure Angela, and I'm absolutely certain, that it will be a big success!
Love from London.
Arigatou gozaimasu, mata ne ❤
Awesome! The world is pretty messed up nowadays, but you are making it a bit better by bringing people from around the world together. Reminds me a bit of the hidden gem anime Sakura Quest. Ganbatte!
That's really cool. I'm totally going to keep this under consideration for the next time I visit Japan.
Having been through your channel for a while now, I can see the hard work you have put into to bring the Japanese culture to a different level by opening a school. That's is amazing. Congratulations once again. Hoping to Join your school soon in the near future. Untill then all the best.
THANK YOU!!
Using your influence to inspire & rebuild communities is just amazing. Keep it, Angela. Wishing u the best of luck & more success
Thank you!!!
I really really hope that I could join and learn Japanese with you guys, look like a lot of fun there, espectically the festival in the next video!
Support to you with all of my heart, seeing your tears, i know your hark work will pay off and this school will go really far and have more and more students! I came to Japan last February and decided to come back in 2021 in Autumn, hope that I can go there to visit your school and meet you in person at that time!
Wish you the best of luck and health to continue the wonderful thing you are doing!
Angela you have started an amazing school that will become a part of Japanese history. You are bringing people together from all over the world and teaching them to live and experience what it truly is to be Japanese. My twins are lucky to be a part of this experience and they are more than impressed by what you have accomplished.
We don't get to communicate with them very much because you have them doing so much and experiencing so much of the Japanese culture that they are exhausted at the end of their days (but in a wonderful way).
What they have shared with us so far has been unbelievable. They are enjoying very second of the countless activities and adventures you have managed to arrange for your students. They say that you are showing them more than they could possibly experience if they were to visit Japan on their own or even with someone that has visited there for months.
I thank you for all that you have done to make your students time in Japan an unforgettable and extremely rewarding part of their lives that will stay with them forever.
心から感謝し、あなたの学校が繁栄し、拡大し続けますように。
ripratt Thank you so much for your kind words!
I’m so glad the twins decided to join this course - they are a delight to have!
You should be so proud as a parent to have raised such a considerate, helpful and appreciative children :)
I cannot wait to experience what’s left of the course with them, and for them to share their experiences with you and your family in person.
These students all seem like legends! Very good thing to learn a new language. Promoting world peace, Angela. Nice work!
They are all amazing people!!! Trust my picking, Ross ;P
It's so wonderful of you and your team to do this, not just for Japan and its rural areas, but also for your "students", they will have the experience of their lives and they will definitely never forget !
Wish you and your team and students a great adventure, Angela !
We will make sure that it's an experience they will never forget!!
I'm sure you guys already make their time ther so memorable !!!
Wow compare with previous videos, your face beaming with satisfaction and achievement. Congratulations 🎉👏
Congratulations Angela! Everything looks really well put together.
Thanks Jeff!!! :) Can't wait to meet up some day to chat about our stories!
If I have the means in the future, this will definitely be on my itinerary. I wish you nothing but success.
Yay!!! Autumn is soon, it's just going to get better and better!!
Sayaka Tully Can’t wait 😍😍😍
Congratulations Angela! Really happy you’ve been able to make your dream into a reality! Would love to enrol in the future too. Can really see your passion and your “why” behind this project. All the best!
This is just the surface to my "why" to be honest hehehehhe you will know the further why later on in the videos :)
internationally ME Can’t wait! Keep inspiring us, we’ll keep doing our best to support you! ☺️
You're making me cry too!! I remember I subbed to you when you had less than 200 subscribers! Watching you chase your dreams and become so successful has been so fulfilling. Congratulations!
Thank you so much - it's been a while huh!
Fantastic. ,looks like they had a lot of fun. You put a lot of effort, sweat and love into this project. I hope it grows,and inspires others to start their own projects around Japan.
Learn, immerse, experience. Beautiful. You are making the world a better place.
This is the wholesome content I like to see ;~;
Angela, I literally started crying! I’m so proud and so happy with how things have turned out! ♥︎♥︎♥︎
I wish you, your students, and your school all the best!!!! I wish I could visit someday!!!!
I thought I was the only one on the brink of tears. But then Angela, you started to cry so I did too. I followed and supported you every step on this path. I hope to be a student one day! Love you Angela from the bottom of my heart and love this channel and the great things you’re doing for others. Continue doing your best!
I'm so happy youtube recommended this channel! I plan on attending language school after I graduate uni and this is very inspiring and heart warming!😊♥️
You've really created something wonderful. I hope it is fantastically successful!
I know how much this journey means to you Angela. Congratulations! I hope to join your class in the near future.
hats off Angela さん for what you are doing....best of luck
I think what you're doing is wonderful Angela, and I wish you all the best for your school to grow rapidly !
You can do it ! :)
Been learning Japanese by myself for over 2 years now but this looks absolutely awesome, not only to learn the language itself but also about the country side, its people, the incredibly rich culture, etc., been to Japan twice but never had the chance to experience something like this, would love to apply so I'll check your web site.
Is so much wish I could have been a part of this. What an amazing group and what a special project. Angela, I have so much respect for you for making this happen, you should be proud of yourself!
Congratulations to your new school and i am amazed with what you're doing. Keep it up.
This is amazing! Congrats on accomplishing this goal and I wish you and everyone involved the best of luck now and in the future. I'll be following attentively because this is truly amazing, having been to Japan, it is a country that once I left all I've thinking about is coming back.. and the best parts weren't the big cities, it was always the countryside. Japan and japanese people have so much to offer, it's truly remarkable.. I am really happy about this project and looking forward to see more :)
Congrats to you Angela!! Being watching your youtube videos for quite a while already. Really glad that you achieved your dream of opening a school. Would love to visit you when I go to japan the next round. From Singapore - Jonson. Keep up your good work for country side of japan. I also like country side of Japan because my niece and nephew are japanese too.
You are one of the most humblest and loveliest person that I've seen on RUclips. I hope this school will all you ever wanted it to be. I wish you and your team, from the depth of my heart, the best time of your life and I really really hope that one day, I will be in your care as well.
Thank you so much - I really appreciate that :)
so happy to see your videos again!
Beautiful tears coming from beautiful feelings inspired by an ideal seeking for happiness and wealth for whole communities. Thank you because you inspire positively others! Having said that, I regret to confirm that also in Spain and France the countryside is being depopulated in favour of the big cities where economical and political power is concentrated. In addition,together with Japan, both, French and Spanish societies are becoming older too, which does not help to revert that. This is just to provide a wider perspective, perhaps to inspire some others to have an idea to revert this. Cheers!
Wow, you're a smart cookie and see the core message I'm promoting :)
My deepest message behind all of this is actually to inspire and encourage young leaders around the world to go back to their hometowns or the country to help it out and create opportunities.
Many young people want to live in the country, because it's peaceful and may live a happier life there, however due to the lack of opportunities, their only choice is to go to the cities.
But, if some kind of movement could happen starting with leaders making more opportunities in the country - we can have more options in life as to where to live and work :)
Omg I'm so happy for you ! And that's such a great idea ! I too love the countryside of Japan and I'd really love to visit someday !
It’s been a magical experience being here so far, thank you for providing this experience for us, Angela!
BanchoSauce thanks Rio, can’t wait to experience the rest together 😍😍
It's interesting how every foreigner's experience in Japan has been so different. Some flame out of Japan while some thrive.
You’re so genuine, authentic and real - love it! I grew up in Japan and came to Auckland with no English but ended up studying at UoA and have been working for a local Kiwi company. I didn’t study English for the sake of the language, rather I tried to learn the culture by doing and the language followed. Having your purposes (or “why’s”) helps with anything. Lastly, what you’re doing brings back values which many people have forgot. Keep up the awesome work, Angela!
I love this video Angela! Congratulations! I’m also in love with Japan countryside. I lived in Niigata prefecture for almost 5 years and I consider it my second hometown. Nothing wrong with Tokyo and other big cities but I truly believe you can learn and experience real Japan by living in countryside
How lovely would be to join your school but I’m in Peru now. If I have the chance to visit Japan in future I’ll try go to Akita and visit you ! Niigata and Akita are not far at all! Love and all positive vibes for your new project!
Hi! I've just came across a gaijinpost article mentioning your school, the courses that you've planned so far make me want to go back again and again just to experience the different seasons in Akita haha
I studied Chinese language in Beijing Language and Culture University (BLCU), the experience was.. life changing. And from what I see from the updates and your videos, your project will change a lot of people's lives the way BLCU changed mine. I hope someday my wife & I will be able to partake one of your courses. Cheers and all the best for you!
So happy for you. Hope everything works out well for you. 😁😁😁
For me, 2 weeks before my flight out to visit Kumamoto the earthquake happened and I cancelled but I always promised myself (and the people) I would visit and support them. 2 years later it come true, and I will always remember those surprised and happy faces when a foreigner walks into a small shop or town. You are an inspiration to your country Angela and be very proud of your achievements. Cheers.
That's so nice to hear! The countryside people are always so welcoming.
Thank you so much :)
nice project and congrats for all those people full of curiosities.
Deeply salute for your great work.
I took Japanese in college but stopped because I was afraid learning too much would de-mistify the beauty of the way the written language looked. I wish I continued. If I didn't have a 10 year old and 1.6 year old, I'd be there. Congrats on a wonderful school!!
What a wonderful and amazing introduction to such a positive and creative project, the happiness and love from everyone just shines through. There can never be enough Angela's in this world. Ganbarimashitane! young lady!.
Thank you! I hope you enjoyed Akita!!
@@internationallyME Oh yes, I've just booked my flights for my 5th visit, this time for 3 months, March 18th until June 9th. Can't wait.
Konnichiwa miss, I'm new to your channel so very nice to meet you! Great video! 😉
Welcome, please watch all of her videos, watch her grow and change.
Congratulation angela,im happy for you.Keep up the good work.Upload more vids.Thank you.
Im so happy you are making your dreams come true.
You made me fall in love with Japan, and now IM here, and have been here for 2 and a half years, and from the bottom of my heart, I want to thank you for inspiring me to come here
I wish you all the best with your school!!!
Great to see you in Greg's video!
These past months I've gotten a huge desire to visit Japan for some reason.
All I know now is that I need this in my life now, hope I can make it soon!
I may even stay for a year if possible 😅
This is amazing! Hopefully soon Ill save up enough money and get to join one of the future course.
Awesome job Angela😆!
Great project, hopefully one day I can help this project in some way as a Japanese😆
Your great vision encourages me a lot to do my work as well, thank you Angela😊!
Rion, you should go up to Akita and shoot some episodes there! It would be real fun!
I understand why you don't upload so many videos on RUclips - because you actually have a life (and a wonderful one that is)
but for me every video you upload is like an antidote to everything wrong with the world. thank you :-)
Thank you :) It is hard to produce content while doing many other things, but I try ^^;
I've been a subscriber of your work when you only had about 4,500 subscribers. It's crazy how you went from working in Exchange student, to working in Japan, to a RUclipsr in Japan, to an entrepreneur bringing life and community back into the rural parts of Japan. Japan is a great place and hope you all the more success in bringing your vision more and more to life.
wow,atleast you came back Angela!
This is amazing. I am so happy for you. I will try to find the time to experience your school!!! Really cool
Looks fun ^^ thanks for posting
this sounds amazing. I hope I can do this one day.
WOW!
great job Angela!!

Thank you Amelia!!
You should be proud of him - he's showing many out there that no matter what age you are, it's never to late to be adventurous!
Zillion the best with your school!
As a old viewer I`m truly happy to see that your dream became true!! The country side of Japan is amazing. Looking forward to see more videos about your school!! :)
Angela I will definitely consider this course.
Congratulations Angela. Sometime ago I was seeing that live stream with you in Tokyo when you didn't know what would come next in your life... Today I got this video in my timeline... I am so happy for you. Bravo!
I did a study abroad at Akita International University and absolutely loved my experience since it was in the countryside and I got to participate in so many different cultural activities! I think this is a wonderful idea!
So exciting! I’m very happy for you and the first group of students! 💖💖💖
Umm...is that guy still looking for the watermelon?? 😂😂 Really kool 1st class!! Great job Angela and team!! 👍
Hahaha he may end up in the river before he finds it.
Congratulations! Totally awesome to see the beginnings to great things to come. What a great opportunity!
It's great to see your dream come true. I'm glad to see the videos leading up to this one and watching it slowly come to reality. I wish I was there as a student to learn and study alongside those students. I've got dreams to learn japan and the culture and to learn the language. I can't wait for the time when I can get my chance to go or attempt to go. Thank you for the video and thank you for letting us see the first round of students to go to your school. Keep up the dream and pushing us to be better ourselves even if we not there.
I love what your doing!! I’m looking for a 1 or 2 week program like this, but for families. Would love for my family to experience the countryside in the summer.
When passionate people make things happen, joy and happiness result. Congratulations on a wonderful and remarkable achievement😀
We’ll done Angela. You’ve accomplished something very special
You were in Nebuta?! Omg, it was my first time seeing it, and it was amazing!! I'm studying in Hirosaki rn and watching Neputa, Nebuta, and Tachineputa was the highlight of my summer!
You should have followed me on Instagram, then you would have known at that time :P
Omg I REALLY want to study there! Angela seems so cute!
I love Japan and Japanese people !
Lots of blessings and love from all over Pakistan .
Kon nichi wa !
So happy for you! Your videos were my inspiration when I planned my first trip out to Japan. Fell in love with the country that I've gone back every year, with my trip for this Nov. already planned out. Definitely rooting for your further success with this! I'll also be keeping a look out for enrollments for 2020 so I can save and plan accordingly 😁
As fan of the old vlogs, for someone with so much love for the countryside I hope it will be a big success. Kanbatte!
This is sooo amazing!!! Congrats with everything you have achieved, and for more to come!!
I really want to attend this!! Hopefully one day i can!
This is amazing! Really glad u got it running! Wishing you the best of things to come your way. Take care angela!
7:30 is gold.

Congratulations Angela!
Congratulations!! I'm happy for you!

Excellent work! I hope for many success of your school and journey.
