  • My Japanese husband has been to America 3 times in the last year and he really loves it. I brought him to Chicago for the first time and he said he wants to move there. But does he really know America after just 3 visits or is he just seeing the country through rose-colored glasses?

He went from a clumsy boy losing his passport to a man firing a gun within a matter of days, and kissing the tiny guppy he caught was a highlight LOL! Calling himself American while wearing the most touristy Chicago hat and t-shirt also got me.

    Wow, this has to be one of my favorite videos of yours! Tommy really had a blast in America whether it was losing his passport after his flight to America (tell him the lost and found isn’t like Japan), seeing how big Chicago rooms are in comparison, losing some money and then going on a (dirty) train, singing at the Baseball game and eating a hotdog, shooting a gun at a firing range, riding a Sea-Doo, catching a fish, and most importantly… Making memories with family! Your mom and dad were so wholesome and welcoming too. What a successful trip you both had. Thank you for making videos like this and bringing us viewers along for the ride. I wish you safe travels returning to Japan! 💜💜💜

    Pearl, you are awesome. I dont even know Tommy but teaching him how to fish, taking him to shoot guns, going to the Cubs game.. you have no idea what that feels like for a man to have someone care for him like that and give him these experiences hes never had. So thank you for taking such good care of the guy :)

    Haven't been on YT in a while as I've been studying in Madagascar so I missed トミーさん (still learning! have a ways to go! please excuse poor characters) first visit to America but he looks like he thoroughly enjoyed himself! It's so interesting how foreigners want to move to America when they come to visit & yet American's want to move to foreign lands once they visit. Will be playing catch-up on your videos. So enjoyable & relatable as always.

    Note: 3:50 yes, Chicago's subway experience has degraded a looot, especially since Covid... Redline is literally the least upkept unfortunately, especially downtown.

    You all were so cute on the boat trip like excitable kids on a school trip lol.
    I have been following you for over a year now and look forward to your down to earth style videos. Please dont stop as sometimes feel you are a bit down hearted with how hard it is to get more likes comments subs etc. Keep going your doing great 🌹🌷🌻

    Fun video! So glad you were able to take Tommy fishing! My Japanese wife never took to fishing, although our son did! 🙂
    I'd love to see you guys do an Asian baseball tour sometime. Perhaps take in one game at the home of an iconic team in each of the Japan, Korea and Taiwan Leagues. I would nominate the Yomiuri Giants (Japan), Kia Tigers (Korea), and Rakuten Monkeys (Taiwan). I think you would find differences between each baseball culture, which reflect some of the cultural differences between countries. Certainly I think you will be surprised by the energy levels in the stands - especially Taiwan!

    • @OrientalPearl

      I’m lucky to have my mom here to show him how to fish. I have no idea and I couldn’t have helped.

    Its so scary to see a range that's not implementing some sort of net guard for spent casings. Amateur shooters having a hot casing land on them can and has been catastrophic.

    • @2WheelsGood.01

      I've never been to a range that has a net. Is it actually a thing?

    Tommy is so laid back he’s almost permanently horizontal.. in his case it’s a little problematic as it makes him forgetful ..hence losing his passport and Apple Watch … he definitely needs a strong minded leader wife like you in his life to get him through with few issues ..
    Nice to see him embrace western culture although I do hope he doesn’t forget his Japanese heritage and values and most importantly his Japanese morals when visiting family and friends in the USA..may I say a very very nice family at that …your mom is adorable …

    You made a lot of effort to show Tommy many US American clichees. He really seems to have enjoyed them.
    As fas as I know baseball is quite popular also in Japan.
    Luckily Tommy managed to retrieve his passport.

    Your Mom looks so young to have a married daughter. So glad Tommy enjoyed America. If I did not have food sensitivities I would order a box of Japanese treats, and tea they both look good.
