You asked what did we do or how we changed because of the pandemic. Two major things happened for me 1. Prioritizing my time being precious and vital to live now and not wait for “retirement” 2. Learning Japanese!
thanks,, this feedback is quite inspiring to me.. and i am tring to dive into Japanese as well..
Ok, so I'm learning japanese, really beginner, and decided to watch the video first without the english subtitles and then again with them on to see what I got right. Here's what I could catch, with some comments after the re-watch:
- Her name is Miku and she has a youtube channel
- Miku is from Osaka
- Maybe her parents too? (yep, her parents are also from Osaka)
- She either wants to go or have already gone to Hokkaido in a van (Wants to!)
- She loves the sea and I assume this meant she wants to live on a seaside city (assumed correctly)
- She went to Indonesia and Australia. Said the sea is beautiful (I missed Bali. She said she _heard_ the sea was amazing. She confirmed it to be true)
- She either knows or are studying english and spanish (she knows)
- Does not want to live in Tokyo. Too much people, all very busy
- Something negative about work culture of japanese companies?
- Does not want to work for japanese companies, neither does Sayaka
- Something about working as freelancer? (she was in fact stating that working as freelancer is better to avoid previous points)
- Something about vacations and japanese work culture, I guess it's about having to be mindful about not leaving much work for others? not being bothersome? (Damn, I got two words and managed to correctly deduce quite a lot 😂)
- Then asked Sayaka about her dream life/job
- Sayaka also doesn't like tokyo because there's too much people or buildings or being expensive or something (almost! too many tall buildings and everyone overstressed)
- They also talked about the pandemic and things related to it, but I couldn't understand anything beyond just this 😅
- Then asked us about our dream life, to write in the comments
Overall, I missed all the small details and a lot of big points, but I got enough to not be completely lost! I'm very proud of that ☺
おめでとう! Holy crap, 1M subs! This connected for me, especially as someone learning Japanese (I caught maybe 25% of this convo, so I'm not sure if that's good or bad). I visited Tokyo last year and fell in love with the country. I would consider a move, but I have an entire (really awesome) established life here in the U.S. -- your perspective is appreciated!
Loved this video… seeing more of your personality and interactions is very enjoyable
Congratulations on 1M subs Sayaka sensei! Thank you for all your amazingly informative and fun videos. Here’s to many more ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you very much!
@@NihongoDekita Arigato gozaimasu Sayaka sensei
You two just crack me up 姉妹みたいな関係、本当に仲良くしている。いつもあなた達の動画を見たら、僕は微笑む。
Aww cute video. Congratulations on getting 1 million subscribers Sayaka 😊 I love watching your videos I am learning a lot of Japanese words and phrases.
I feel identified with this conversation. Recently, I've been doing 就活 in Japan, and it gets overwhelming how everyone is rushing to get a job and enter the cosmopolitan lifestyle of a metropolis such as Tokyo. Thank you both for providing us with such a chill chat.
I miss listening to more casual conversatios like this, even though I still needed to read the subtitles at times. Thank you both! TBH one of my dream areas to live is in Kamakura. I visited there several times when I lived in Japan and one time whie on vacation. It has great vibes and its great being near the sea.
wait sometimes? i don’t know that much japanese! i need captions to understand the topic they are even talking about!
Thank you for making such wonderful videos 💗💗🤍
Thank you for watching 💛
@@NihongoDekita thank you for replying 💖😊
congrats on 1 mil sayaka!!!
Thank you so much for sharing with us.. ❤
It’s always cool having both of you in one video. さやかとみくありがとう! My dream is to live in Japan, don’t know where yet. However, I will move in Japan in 2025 no matter what! And as Miku mentioned about having a camping car, I will ship my camping car I am renovating and start to travel with it from Hokkaido.
Relaxing chat, hello from Sydney. You have been here both. ❤😊
面白い動画を作ってくれてありがとうございます。次の動画を楽しみにしています。😁
Thanks for sharing with us 😊
Thanks for watching!
Hi sayaka❤ I think you would love my home, it is in the middle of a forest with only like 50 pepole living here and you are so close to the sea that you can walk to it in 20 minutes or less. Sometimes the sea freezes and you can go ice skating at the beach, fun rigth😂The bad part is that they dont take away the snow in the winters and you have to drive on a white road also there is no bus, the nearest is five kilometers away... But the yards are enormous and you can se lots of animals (it was a fox in my garden last winter) ❤❤❤ You are a fantastic youtuer so keep on with your channel❤
Thank you for the learning Sayaka Sensei, ありがとうございます 😀⚔🇯🇵🇲🇽.
Just recently subscribed to the channel and that I have been enjoying the videos. Especially the shorts.
ずっと笑われたよね😂❤。まあ、二人とも生き生きでめちゃおもろいやで😂。ちなみにこの動画に大事なことが多いので考えられました。例えば、どこに住みたいかなとかどんな仕事をしたいかなとかめちゃ大事なことですよね。正直、さやかさんとみくさんこんな動画を作ってくれるのを本当にありがたいです❤。ところで、漫才をしたらいいなだと思いますよ😅😊。だから、凄く優しくてやっぱりめちゃ面白いよね😂😊
素晴らしい動画です。ありがとうございます先生。
Great to listen to and thank you for sharing. Was funny at times 💨 I live by the sea and my town is small. About 3 minutes from the beach too. I lost my job in the pandemic so I do not have fond memories of that time at all.
Thank you both for sharing! I really agree with you both about city life, how stressful and chaotic it can get, how exhausting crowds are for me even though I do love people, I think most are caught up in the “hustle” influence of the world. I tried it in Phoenix for 3 years, being from a small town area in Arizona, I found out that way I cannot do city life happily. We have very similar ideas for the dream life, even the humble acceptance of farting 😂 In fact I’m inspired to open up and share a pencil sketch of mine with you from last year, I’ll email it! Thanks again for sharing the conversation, may peace be with you ❤
I think this conversation is really how Japanese native people speak. I have N3 level and if I don't actively read every word and search every sentence I would not have known the nuances and 100% meaning of everything.
Amazing video. Best wishes for your future adventures
keep it on cool viddeos ! going campingat spring next to ocean is a nice project of mine !
1M congratulations 👏
Thank you!
I am Canadian and I am planning on visiting Japan in 2025. Maybe Miku and I could visit Hakaido together.... lol
Anyway love your videos. You guys seen to be close friends. You work well together. Very entertaining. Thanks.
At the end of the video, you asked if the Corona shut down changed anything in our lives. As far as I am concerned, it did not change quite a lot..... except that I discovered a lot of japanese sites and I have been learning japanese more intensively, hearing real spoken japanese. I am retired and have now a lot of time.... I enjoy very much your podcasts and Miku's too. Miku spoke about a third person at a moment. You should make one podcast with Yuyu!!!! Thank you very much for yout vivid podcasts and joy of life!!!greetings from Montreal - Canada.
日本では勉強したいっと思います💭
1 Million Subs,Congratulations!
Thank you!!
A collab of two amazing Japanese RUclipsrs and you have 1M life is good
Sayaka is so beautiful I wanna cry
LOVE this video as I'm a fan of BOTH of you! Dream life to have a remote job (marketing) living in Okinawa
I think was the same way how things changed, in the post-pandemic period, people began to think more about the way how they and we live, from now on.
Hello Sayaka! I really love all your videos, you teach really well and make the videos so interesting and authentic 😄👍🏻😎. One request - would it be possible to add Japanese subtitles as closed caption rather than embedded in the video images itself ? I am trying to learn the vocab from your video and it’s a bit difficult to do so with the current settings. (I use LingQ to import videos and captions, if anyone’s interested to do so !) Thank you so so so much again for being such a great Japanese teacher ! Keep making amazing videos !! 🎉🎉
Awesome vlog!!
My two favourite Japanese ladies ❤❤
You complete me sayaka 😘
sayaka is the best
Aussie male, Japanese wife, living in Australia. The number one thing that Aussie visitors to Japan miss when they come back to Australia from Japan is service!
Regarding moving to the country, my wife is from countryside Japan and by the ocean. Still not more than an hour from a city, but still her home town is dying. Whereas in Australia you might travel hours, days even without seeing another town or person! And yes, our country towns are also dying.
みくさん、インドネシアぜひ来てください❤❤
my 7 years daughter always comment your video from my account , she is very happy you reached 1M subs . Congratulations
おはようミク！私はカナダじんです日本に行きたいです！
I thought about my health but I drank like a fish. I became obsessive about germs. I also had the opportunity to confirm the idea that I like being away from crowds and traffic. It was so peaceful during the pandemic. I miss the pandemic so much!
About you moving from Japan, the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. Sometimes that is because it is growing on manure. When a person leaves Japan both places get smarter!
The pandemic did help get me into Japanese culture and a big reason im learning Japanese
Hi Sayaka, i like ur channel and ur simplicity, i would really like to meet u ❤
Take love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩🖤🇯🇵
I really want to visit Japan one day
That's one of thousands of my biggest dreams. 日本大好き〜(≧▽≦)💓🇯🇵
Great fun seeing the two of you. I'm a little surprised we didn't get the fart conversation! ;-)
My dream would be to move from the middle of the US to a place within an hour's train ride from Tokyo. While I also love nature I sometimes need the energy boost I get from being in flowing crowd.
Get a BA and go teach English. Try not to launch yourself into space from the misery of the job once you get there.
Good luck!
@@lookitskazzy I spent 30 years teaching math in the US. If I didn't have a couple of dogs, Id spend the three years of 3 month visas.
❤❤❤
Thank you for this from Monday night.❤ I tried exposing myself entire youtubeshorts last week.
I like convenience store dialog as customer and clerk. Sensei did true somewhat discouraged studying Japanese to this video but I don't think so and know method.🤨
Oddly enough when the pandemic came i started working more tahn before but it was because i enjoyed working with coworkers from many countries. For me i wouldn't mind living in a town no more than 30 min commute from the city
I saw online once a Jp who lived in central america & another who visited it & made me happy they learned the language. I want to learn Jp but need at least a Jp friend to talk to so i dont start forgetting it 😮💨
Oh wow. Most ambitious crossover event in history. Marvel eat your heart out.
I just moved from Osaka after 15 years to Miyazaki to live at the beach and surf. Only about 50 minutes away by low-cost airplane. Take a trip and check it out.
You have a great voice in Japanese!
Interesting outlook
Thank you for this wonderful video! Very insightful. 💝 I agree with what you both say about living in Japan as a freelancer instead of working for a Japanese company. I would like to do that but I don't know how I would get a visa without working for a Japanese company. Even if I could live off my income from my RUclips channel it would not qualify me for a visa. Is there another way to get a work visa without working for a Japanese company?

Close to tokyo, close to mount fuji, with my wife and kids.
海の近くに住むのは良いですが、津波が来ると危険な場所です😢今、名古屋市にすんでいます。この街が大好きです❤
I LOVE YOU SENSEI 💖🎌
this is true that during pandemic in France, people living in Paris or big cities wanted to move to countryside, and a lot did that. Of course, should you have a job that allows to do this, why not ? This have pros and cons, pros obviously is to get a better life, surrounding by nature or near the sea or in the mountains. The main flip side was that prices of houses in the countryside went up dramatically and local people there could not buy such houses.
My dream life is to buy a little house in or around Kyoto*, walkable to a train station and whatever else I might need locally, and just be the sweet old** foreigner in the neighborhood who takes good care of his cats and just wants to live the later part of his life in peace. My kid would come visit me on breaks from college and we could get all the takoyaki they want. I'd participate in all the local festivals and my neighbors would find my enthusiasm for the yukata endearing instead of weird. If we're talking the BIG dream life, I also run a game store, create a variety of online content, and finally write the books I've had rolling around in my head for years (a fiction trilogy and a non-fiction book discussing men's mental health issues and questioning the nature of masculinity).
Why am I telling you all this? You asked! And maybe you even have some advice for an American looking to emigrate to a quiet part of Japan. 😁
*I've also looked at various places in Hokkaido as possibilities; they're much cheaper, but also less walkable. Ideally I'd like to not need a car when I get there, and everything I saw for sale in Hokkaido was like a 15-30 minute drive to the nearest train station. I'm sure the countryside is beautiful, but I'd much rather be close to the places I need to go, like ramen shops and cat cafes. 😉
**I'm not actually OLD - I'm 45, and I probably won't be any older than like 47-48 when/if I am able to leave the US. I just look older because my current life has stressed me nearly to death on more than one occasion.
I love the way Japanese people give respect to everyone while they talk with them ❤ Arigato Khuzaimas ❤
It's "Arigatou Gozaimasu"
@@DJPaulgee1 Arigatou Gozaimasu for making me correct
Konnichiwa, ohayo gozaimasu.
Ogenki desu ka, suteki da ne, subarashii desu ne, ima wa doko desu ka, kirei na keshiki desu ne, shizukana bashoo desu ne, kiotsukete kudasai. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu....
When was this video recorded? It seems like it was summertime.
Inside Japan, I think you picked a good area (Kamakura) to live in. Easy-going beach life. Not crazy crowded like Tokyo. Closer to nature (Hakone). Maybe you're developing roots there now, so it's more difficult to leave compare to when you were young and traveled to Spain and Mexico freely. Outside of Japan, perhaps the most ideal place for an English speaking Asian is... Hawaii. Majority are Asians or mix-Asians, so strong Asian culture. Fairly safe and clean. (Rarely any other place in the world will be as safe or clean as JP.) First world, but maybe a little more expensive than Kamakura. Nature is the best in the world. 20-28 degrees, year round. Sunshine, blue ocean, green forests and mountains next to each other. Located between US & JP. Unfortunately, far away from rest of world. Okinawa is maybe the next best thing for a JP who loves HI? Hokkaido is awesome, but not in the winter. Cold.
My dream is a remote job while living in Chiba or some other suburb of Tokyo. That's what I'm working towards anyway, not making much headway, but I'm trying

I’m retired, and had just settled on a plan to spend time with different friends at different times of the year when the pandemic happened.
It was a lonely time, but also a creative time for me. And I also started to study Japanese. Although I drank a lot of German beer too.
I recently visited Kamakura, and missed Osaka except for the 新幹線駅乗り換える at Shin-Osaka, on my way to Kagoshima.
I wanted to see a lot of Japan, but missed Shikoku and Hokkaido, and didn’t see the west coast of Japan at all. Maybe next time.
I don’t think growing up in Japan would have been so good for me, because I am a very odd person and not a team player, but visiting it as an (old) adult I fell in love with the place. So many things are beautiful, and very much to my taste.
Salvador Dali wrote a short book about farts. Also, you should know about Joseph Pujol, ’Le Pétomane’.
I enjoy both of your video channels, and I am gradually getting more out of them as my Japanese improves.
On the other hand, brother, I want to visit Japan, but it's hard to leave Bali
I always struggle with listening because I probably get about 40% of what's going on and fill in the blanks. If I use Japanese subtitles I tend to read the hiragana rather than the kanji but if I use English subtitles I just read them rather than using them to help me understand what's happening. Urgh.......why is it hard haha
Miku, come live in Australia! It's the pinnacle of tshirt, shorts, thongs (flip flops), and surfboards. :D
I think the only good thing that came out of the pandemic for me was getting to work from home. Can't really think of any other good things. :(
At the start: So what's your dream life?
Few moments later: Let's talk about farting!
Few more moments later: nice view isn't it?
😅🤣
I personally loved being in Japan for almost a month back in Oct 2023. I really want to explore more of it, but it is definitely on the highest position on my list in my mind of where I would love to live, considering both pros and cons.
Sayaka san
How to comeing in Japan
Please l like Japan
omosiroi desu ne
If u like and reply this comment, I will sit and like all ur vids and shorts.😅 Tnx, I'm big fan❤
U dint reply, So u lost the challenge.😁 Though tnx for liking.
Soo Sayaka's dream life is to live within an hours drive to Miku's?
Great video, Sayaka-san. Ariagatou gozaimasu. For Japanese learners at this level, 100% better if you put translations in ROMAJI and not in english or kanji/kana. The speaking is too fast to catch the kana & kanji. Thank you for considering it and keep up the valuable videos!
That was cute. Must definitely make a video about Japanese view on farting 😂... it'll be a first I think.
You two have the creator/artistic/free-bird mentality, so it's natural that you can't live in a large metropolis like Tokyo with it's rigid clockwork routine. Great topic... More like this. 👍
If you need a director I can be your director!
コロナの時にはつまらないだったから、日本語勉強始めたwww
Do you gals sometime have coffee time with your subscribers who live nearby?
That would be a bad idea. If .1% of her subscribers are obsessive creeps, that would be 1000. Most youtubers won’t even tell you what town in Tokyo they live in.
@@johns7539Good point.
Talking about farting? But I thought women didn't fart 😜
Well we only said we talked about it… 🤫
Sayaka Sensei, are you voting for Donald Trmp?
Japan is a good place for people who want to work and work and work.
英語の教師として優秀、日本語の通訳者としても素敵だと思う、でも日本の文化を語るのはやめたほうが良いと思う、おもしろくない
Who laughs this much on a boring conversation😂😂😂😂
Get a life 🧬😅. That was super interesting 🤔.
terimakasih sensei, mampir saja ke rumah saya di bali. saya nantikan kedatanganmu
