Happy Easter Sunday my dear friends!🐣 Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend!🤗💕 Hope you enjoy this video. Thank you so much for always supporting 💜🙇♀️ Big hugs to everyone.💕🤗
Your story about poverty touched my heart. It's been my experience in life that when we go through these things, it makes us determined and appreciative of the things we do have. Hardships can definitely turn to blessings. I can understand how your family is proud of you! You are a very good daughter!!
Hello from Australia. I have been watching your videos before bedtime for a while. They are very soothing, very grounding. You are a lovely girl who understands that growing as a human being is not about making money, having many things and being 'successful'. You understand that life is all about inner growth, spiritually, emotionally, psychologically. A 'small' life is precious, it does not make the ego grow and it not based on craving and greed. Good for you. I am 78 years of and have travelled much, lived in other cultures but it is now that I am living a small and quiet life that I feel the love for the small precious things around me and inside me. Thank you for sharing your pure heart with us : )
When you were reading over your budget for expenses, I was hoping you were able to set aside a small allowance for yourself for something fun, like the new sandals for summer. I'm glad that you are to treat yourself sometimes for working so hard! I'm happy you're doing so well and I'm proud of you too!
I make 14 an hour but I only have one bill. House is paid for, water is free, no tv or internet, no phone, no subscriptions, no car, no debt whatsoever. I only spend about 3 dollars a day on food, I grow a lot of my food and have 5 pecan trees and 12 chickens. It's nice being able to spend 500 a week on whatever. I'm definitely fortunate, I know not everyone has the ability to live with such little overhead. But I do believe that the average person can definitely save on a lot, but they choose not to.
I think a lot of people are caught up in the rat race, They gotta have a nice car, a nice house, the new iPhone, name brand food, etc. Most people are $60k in debt before they have a stable income. It's sad that people are conditioned to handle their money this way. This is how they make you a financial slave.
Such a prudent and organize young lady. It’s not easy to live alone away from your family. Praying you find joy all the days of your life. God bless you.
My daughters are 23 and 20. My oldest just started her first job as a biologist yesterday, and my youngest is in nursing school. I know you feel good when you know your parents are proud of you, but I can guarantee you that they feel even happier than you do!! It is so wonderful that you send money home to help out. You're a good daughter! God Bless 🥰
I found this personal documentary so relaxing. I really felt the concept of "being present" at play.... our Western world is focused on moving so quickly that I think we forget to pay attention to the small things like noticing flowers. I love that you give back to others ❤ Love and Light from Canada 🇨🇦
You have a knack for this! Great work. Setting up camera angles, tripod, etc doing it all by yourself, and still telling a story while not revealing yourself. Few RUclipsrs have this skill. 🤗
❤ Good morning. Happy Easter from the US. I know it is hard being away from your family, but as a parent, am so proud of you for doing this, going to another country, a new job and most of all sharing. Stay strong, you've got this ❤
We are also proud as subscribers for a young lady that strives to be caring and striving to be better and kind.kindness for one another is hard to find in this world❤
Agree with you Paula 👍💯 not many kind-hearted people in this world now a days...due to crisis loads of scammers not only for money but breaking your heart in terms of relationships 🙄...I always love watching Lou's videos.... HAPPY EASTER TO YOU...I hope you can be one of my viewers too...❤️🕊️
This is my favorite episode. It was very interesting to get financial figures (such a personal topic) from someone in a different country. I think it's a topic many people wonder about but never ask about. Thank you for sharing! The second reason I love this episode is because of Lou C.'s commentary on why she donates to charity. It really touched me. I teach elementary school children (primary grades) to many impoverished children in the United States. Her story about poverty, determination, and studying hard to achieve one's dreams is something I will definitely share with future students. Very inspirational - Thank you!
I stumbled across your videos by accident, like many others here and i enjoy watching them so much. There is a quietness around you and your filmmaking that really soothes my mind. I am from Germany and I love to learn about the differences in daily life between these two counties but also to learn about some similarities which i didn't expect (costs for items in the grocery store for example). Its so much fun and so relaxing to be part of the story you tell us. Thank you for that :)
Ist mir auch aufgefallen, dass die Lebensmittelpreise fast identisch zu denen bei uns sind, und ich finde diese Videos von Lou ebenso wunderbar. Gruss aus Dresden ❤
As a mother of 3 college students, I'm certain your parents are proud of you. Well done. Happy Resurrection Day to all who read this. May God bless you 🙏❤
@@SailorMoonFan92 no, it’s not just Easter . It is the resurrection of the only human being on earth that was resurrected from the dead and went to heaven. It will never happen again it was a one time event that is so special that it will never be replaced!
Considering how much you had to struggle when you were young, you have done very well! Congratulations and be proud of yourself. You're very disciplined.
Happy Easter Sunday to you also Lou C. Once again .. you started my morning off great again! I love what you have shared with us about your life and I just wanted to say.. You have strived to change your life from coming from a poorer family to being the best you can be and for that you will keep being successful! You have made your mess your message in life. Ty for sharing! You are a blessing to us all and a true inspiration!
Me too I'm proud of you girlie because you have good sense and you are not spoiled.I wish there were more young people like you.Youare a role model for everyone out there!👍❤
4:20 🥑I thought Brazilians were the only ones that liked to add sugar to their avocados! 🇧🇷 Most people use avocados to make salsa. You mash an avocado 🥑, a tomato🍅, some diced onion 🧅, some peppers🌶and make a dip for your tortilla chips! 🇲🇽🇺🇸
You should be very proud of the life you are making for yourself. It's so difficult to do all this in your own. But you have so many friends out here! Sending all my good wishes!
I was SO excited this morning when I saw a NEW video by LouC!! I find your info about cost of living and the cost of groceries and oher things really interesting! I love how you think of and help take care of your family money wise. You are doing such a great job at your life in Japan --- I love to see your cooking videos. It sounds like you are going back to the Phillipines soon? Thank you LouC. Happy Easter to you and your family. I think you are precious!! x
Found ur channel today. Your video is very soothing like others in the comments said. When you mentioned about how hard was ur childhood when there was no money left and ur mum needed to beg from others, I almost cried. Ur family is definitely very proud of you. And do remember to spend some money on yourself for entertainment, cuz you definitely deserve it too
You won’t believe how satisfied is after a long day of work or even on a later afternoon Sunday just lay back and watch a video it is so relaxing, thank you so much for making such a great content 💯💪🥰
I appreciate your sharing your budget. It is part of the reality of living in a foreign to your own country. I find myself fascinated at the prices of average food. I am also surprised that the apartment rent does not include your appliances. I admire that you carefully support your family and your budget of giving back to those who have little. Many blessings to you this Easter. May the year ahead be abundant in love and joy. Thank you for sharing from Washington State, USA.
Eres extraordinaria Lou, orgullo de tu familia. No es fácil vivir en soledad en otro país, pero eso hará de ti una persona fuerte y asertiva. Un gran abrazo desde Barcelona y feliz Domingo de Resurrección a todos. 🤗🇪🇦
I came across your channel randomly while watching material about Japan. Fascinating for me to watch these kinds of videos of daily living from various people. It gives one perspectives and views outside of their own. I call it collective shared human interests.
So interesting. You're wearing a Cape Cod, Mass. sweatshirt and here I am in Massachusetts watching a video of a woman shop and cook in Japan. Bizarre and amazing all at once. Enjoyed the video!
Hi Lou ! You are a very good Girl, you have worked hard to achieve your goals and you are always trying to do the BEST. On the other hand, sharing part of your salary with your family and poor people is an act of generosity I admire. Thanks to show how you prepare the meals ,they're very healthy.
I'm so glad you'll be visiting your family soon! 💕 Those patties you made were basically what we'd call meat loaf here in America. The only differences are that we'd usually bake them and eat them with ketchup. Frying meat loaf patties is an interesting idea! Have a lovely week, Lou! 😊
They are made in a somehow similar way in Germany, without milk, a little smaller, fried on both sides and of course with a different name. "Frikadelle" ...and if you bought butcher fresh minced pork you can also eat it raw on a bun. No Joke 😄"Mettbrötchen"
I'm Canadian and hamburger steak prepared this way is a popular dish here, except it's typically served with onions and brown gravy for toppings. Meatloaf is a different dish but it's also usually topped with ketchup for us.
@@BrianTX409 when its spread over thin and allowed to glaze the meatloaf for a bit almost immediately after cooking it, its delicious. the savory salty and sweet from the ketchup gives it an amazing flavor.
Lovely video. Lou is so careful and diligent in her work, it is a beautiful thing to watch her prepare a meal. Love the detail like the towel under the chopping board. She prepares real food, not like in the UK where a cheap, microwaved ready meal seems to be the preferred choice- which allows more time to poke the phone hopelessly for no value. You get your priorities right in life. I am impressed.
Hello, I am a new fan. I live in Nashville, Tennessee, USA. I lived in Japan for one year in 1976. Fell in love with it. If I could speak the language fluently, I would be living there now. Your cooking is helping me to revive the great memories I have of authentic Japanese cuisine. Something that is very hard to find here in the USA. Thank you so much :)
Google your area for Japanese grocery stores. I'd be willing to bet you have one close by, that you weren't aware of. I have one very local to me in Maryland, in an area that I never would have expected it to be.
Happy Easter from Italy. My life is very hectic and chaotic, your videos relax me in the few free moments. Thank you🌺🐣🐰YOUR FAMILY MUST BE VERY PROUD OF YOU🧡
Your story is amazing and so are you. It’s wonderful that you budget in charity and helping your parents. I helped my mother until she died 20 years ago, and it was a blessing to do so. Best of luck to you.
Happy Easter to you Lou and Everyone! It was beautiful, that you, thinking about your family and buying things, they will love. An early congratulations on your 100K subscribers Lou.
I love to watch you cook. Sometimes, I have to go back and read what the ingredients are. The hamburger steak here in MS we put gravy on our and most of the time mashed potatoes. I am so happy for you that you are being responsible and taking care of yourself. God bless you.
You know lou i just love the way you vlog especially when you shop you show what ho buy along with th the price thank you i also like the pace the vlog keep. It. Up im a fan
I’m a mother to four and grandmother of two. I’m proud of you, especially after just visiting your country for the first time. I know your mother would be so very proud of you and what your achieving.
It was so inspiring to know your history and also about your generosity. Good for you! Your parents must be very proud. For sure. Best wishes from Spain
Happy Easter Lou!! I loved seeing you wear the Cape Cod Sweatshirt!!! I'm so glad you like it! That color looks very nice on you! I'm happy that you will see your family soon!
Watching your video describes my personal life, work, cook, sometimes play around and have fun but mostly i enjoy my own company. Thank you for the show 😊
We used to have Lawson stores in Ohio, US where I grew up. Ohio is where Lawson originated. I never forgot those big capital letters in that instantly recognizable font. The Lawson name disappeared here in the 80's. It's nice to see Lawson has become popular in Japan. It's strangely fascinating watching you just living your life.
Happy Easter, Lou! Always exciting to watch your videos 😊. I agree with the others who said your parents are very proud of you. Keep going forward, little lady. You got this 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙂
Wow, as an American my whole life, I would have never ever imagined I would see an ear of corn thrown into a soup and eaten off a spoon. That is a culinary culture shock to me! ☮ from Kentucky.
Well,as a South East Asian it was a cultural and gastronomical shock to watch Americans eating raw beans or cauliflower florets, or eating canned food! And when I see kids with their parents wasting food… my eyes get 😢
Just wanted to say thank you letting me and everyone else into your world. For a little while now I've liked watching your videos. Learning about different it's something I like to do. I currently reside in Oregon USA. Watching your videos I have learned a lot about other cultures thank you.
Thank you for the video, I'm from the UK so it was interesting to see how it is over in Japan for a day, it's the first time I've seen the 100Y shops. Also some advice for carrying delicate items that may break easily when traveling, wrapping them in paper and then placing them inside a T-shirt or some trousers to protect it in your luggage helps a lot, I had to carry some very fragile items on 5 hour flights that survived every time using these methods. I hope you have a pleasant day 😊
Жизнь филлипинки в Японии я бы поставил в один ряд с жизнью какой-нибудь казашки в Москве. Японцы - националисты не в меньшей степени. Выводы делайте сами. Могла бы казашка точно так же снимать интересные видео о своей жизни в другой стране?
I love watching videos from Japan. I'm in the UK but will visit Japan one day. Your channel is very good, very relaxing and you have great filming and editing skills. Keep up the great work x
I spent a year in Japan, Osaka. (Pre-covid) My "expenses" barely reached 2000€ and those where including 700€ for university costs monthly, 300€ for the apartment, 200€ in food, and around 500+€ for other expenses (transportation, clothes, cutlery, small furniture etc). I don't think Japan is expensive specially knowing how to handle yourself and of course control yourself a bit. I didn't go out often, didn't do much tourism beyond grabing a train and explore. No I did not live "as a student surviving of ramen" in fact I trated myself well able to buy expensive fruit (it is really expensive in Japan) and treating myself from time to time trying out Japanese dishes even at some fancy restaurants. If you guys manage where you live and have just a bit of savings you will be fine specially if you start working there. Just my two cents :)
Thanks for you interesting insight onto Japanese food and shopping. I love to see what people cook in other countries. We traveled to Japan in 2019 and we found the food to be of the highest quality. And as I love see food, i was very happy to find fresh Sashimi 🍣 everywhere. We also loved the food in your 7-Eleven shops. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺 🦘
Amazing story ! What you mentioned is anyone’s dream . To make something for yourself ! Nothing worth it comes easy . It’s crazy how far we come from how low we started . Your parents should absolutely be proud 👏
Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. You’re doing amazingly and I’m sure your family is very proud of you. I hope you have a great time with your family and I bet they will all love the chocolate.. now I’m craving chocolate too! 😅 Love and hugs 💓
I used to work at an American university with an American man who loved Japan. He lived there for 2 years as an English teacher and went back for visits. He introduced me to the work of film directors Kirosawa, Miyazaki, and Kobayashi. He would bring Japanese treats to the office; one of my favorites were matcha Pockys. I saw them in this video when you were shopping.
You are really doing a great job Helping your parents and also managing yours I really appreciate that And really it is better to stay alone instead of being a part of the chaos around us Keep it up😊
I'm envious of the cost of living there. And the quiet you have in your apartment. No slamming doors, no conversation audible from the street, no sounds of drills or lawnmowers. I live in the suburbs in San Diego and I wake up whenever somebody slams their car door. You're blessed and you give it back as well
TWO DOLLARS FOR MIXED PORK AND BEEF?! Damn. We're getting shafted here in Canada, that little portion would've cost 20 bucks alone. Edit: Yeah, Pork and Beef, namely beef, is astronomically expensive here in Canada right now. Like i'd kill for beef that cost as much as a timmies Iced coffee.
I am so proud of you for helping your parents, I support and help my parents since I was 18 years old. I am now 45 and still send money on monthly bases.
My dream is to visit Japan as I am an American anime/manga artist/author. I live in Alaska here in the US and a small carton of milk like that for us is $8.25 !! I love seeing how low prices for food is there. I know cost of living is expensive there in Japan but wow that food is cheap!!
Hi, Lou! Good evening from Brazil. First of all, congratulations for making your dreams come true after all you've been through. I have a lot of Respect and admiration for Japan and I actually would Love to live my life there. I'm watching your video right now during this writing and I want to thank you for share a little of your life in Japan. I liked your cooking 😂 and I just want to wish all the best for you and I hope someday I can be in Japan because as I said before, I love the Culture, the respect and so many other things there. Thanks a lot!
I'm so glad your doing so much for your family, but please do much for yourself, you are the one working hard and having earn this money you above all deserve most of it!!❤
Random tip i learned working in the produce department of a grocery store, is to always choose the avocados that haven't lost their stem. it lets in oxygen and begins to over ripen. I really enjoyed your video thanks!
Your live reminds me so much of my own. Thank for sharing your moments and to give others the feeling that they are not alone with their actuall livestyle.
Ваша розповідь про те ,що ви не мали ,що їсти дуже глибоко мене тронула,аж до сліз😢В мене була така ж ситуація! Батьки пишаються вами,я впевнена! Великий привіт з Одеси,України!❤
Last year, I was working full time, budgeting groceries, unable to afford date nights, and missing time with my kids. Now I learned how to make money online. Now am a SAHM, homeschooling, and making profits every week.
No specific one really, because there are lots of investment plans and strategies littered all over the internet today, for instance, investments like real estates,gold, drop shipping crypto currency and lots more
We call hamburg steak meatloaf here in the US, you cook it in the oven & put ketchup on top. The ketchup turns into a glaze. (You need an oven). It looks like a loaf of bread & you roast it. I like to add Worcestershire sauce & a handful of oats. We serve it with a side peas & mashed potatoes. (Comfort food). Mmmmm.
Impressed she cooks her meals from scratch. If you live alone and work, it's usually easier to get ready meals, but they don't taste as good and certainly don't include all this fresh produce. Very enjoyable video, thank you. From the U.K
Thanks for sharing these moments of your everyday live! It’s very interesting to see how people live on the other side of the world:) Best wishes and good luck to you!
Happy Easter Sunday my dear friends!🐣 Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend!🤗💕 Hope you enjoy this video. Thank you so much for always supporting 💜🙇♀️ Big hugs to everyone.💕🤗

Your story about poverty touched my heart. It's been my experience in life that when we go through these things, it makes us determined and appreciative of the things we do have. Hardships can definitely turn to blessings. I can understand how your family is proud of you! You are a very good daughter!!
Well said! What doesn't break you makes you stronger 💪🏽
I agree. She's a credit to her family Xx
Andy a very sweet daughter 😊
you call that poverty?

Prudent? Everything she bought was wrapped in plastic.
You have a way of making the viewer feel like they're right there. Also, very peaceful and calming to watch. Thank you!
Does anyone else find Lou C’s videos super relaxing, or is it just me? 😅 Happy Easter everyone!
I do
Her videos are the best out of all of the RUclipsrs 😍
Yes, it's very nice and relaxing. 👌👌

You must have done a good job to have such accomplished children. Wishing you many long years of love together.
Yes I mean if you are a good parent you don't even need to expect help, cuz the kids gonna do it themselves without ask cuz they are loves you. :D

Hello, I am a new fan. I live in Nashville, Tennessee, USA. I lived in Japan for one year in 1976. Fell in love with it. If I could speak the language fluently, I would be living there now. Your cooking is helping me to revive the great memories I have of authentic Japanese cuisine. Something that is very hard to find here in the USA. Thank you so much :)
Google your area for Japanese grocery stores. I'd be willing to bet you have one close by, that you weren't aware of. I have one very local to me in Maryland, in an area that I never would have expected it to be.
You should go back man❤
you call you how i. Japanese cuisine is very good and exotic.

Happy Easter from Italy. My life is very hectic and chaotic, your videos relax me in the few free moments. Thank you🌺🐣🐰YOUR FAMILY MUST BE VERY PROUD OF YOU🧡
This was very calming and wonderful to watch. Thanks for sharing your life.
Your story is amazing and so are you. It’s wonderful that you budget in charity and helping your parents. I helped my mother until she died 20 years ago, and it was a blessing to do so. Best of luck to you.
Happy Easter to you Lou and Everyone! It was beautiful, that you, thinking about your family and buying things, they will love. An early congratulations on your 100K subscribers Lou.
I love to watch you cook. Sometimes, I have to go back and read what the ingredients are. The hamburger steak here in MS we put gravy on our and most of the time mashed potatoes. I am so happy for you that you are being responsible and taking care of yourself. God bless you.
Happy Easter! You are such a blessing to your family! It's good of you to help your family and others. Your parents should be very proud of you!
It's so satisfying and peaceful to watching your video. Thank you. ❤❤
You know lou i just love the way you vlog especially when you shop you show what ho buy along with th the price thank you i also like the pace the vlog keep. It. Up im a fan
I’m a mother to four and grandmother of two. I’m proud of you, especially after just visiting your country for the first time. I know your mother would be so very proud of you and what your achieving.
She should be married with kids ,what are you saying
@@mac9954 It is entirely up to her. How come you assume everyone´s dream is being married with children? The world has come a long way since 1950.
@@mac9954why don’t you get married and have kids and be miserable? You men need to stop telling women what to do, you control freaks.
It was so inspiring to know your history and also about your generosity. Good for you! Your parents must be very proud. For sure. Best wishes from Spain
Happy Easter Lou!! I loved seeing you wear the Cape Cod Sweatshirt!!! I'm so glad you like it! That color looks very nice on you! I'm happy that you will see your family soon!
Your meals always look so delicious and well prepared. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. Love from America!
Watching your video describes my personal life, work, cook, sometimes play around and have fun but mostly i enjoy my own company. Thank you for the show 😊
We used to have Lawson stores in Ohio, US where I grew up. Ohio is where Lawson originated. I never forgot those big capital letters in that instantly recognizable font. The Lawson name disappeared here in the 80's. It's nice to see Lawson has become popular in Japan. It's strangely fascinating watching you just living your life.
Happy Easter, Lou! Always exciting to watch your videos 😊. I agree with the others who said your parents are very proud of you. Keep going forward, little lady. You got this 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙂
Wow, as an American my whole life, I would have never ever imagined I would see an ear of corn thrown into a soup and eaten off a spoon. That is a culinary culture shock to me! ☮ from Kentucky.
Well,as a South East Asian it was a cultural and gastronomical shock to watch Americans eating raw beans or cauliflower florets, or eating canned food!
And when I see kids with their parents wasting food… my eyes get 😢
@@KAMU13😂😂😂
Just wanted to say thank you letting me and everyone else into your world. For a little while now I've liked watching your videos. Learning about different it's something I like to do. I currently reside in Oregon USA. Watching your videos I have learned a lot about other cultures thank you.
Thank you for the video, I'm from the UK so it was interesting to see how it is over in Japan for a day, it's the first time I've seen the 100Y shops.
Also some advice for carrying delicate items that may break easily when traveling, wrapping them in paper and then placing them inside a T-shirt or some trousers to protect it in your luggage helps a lot, I had to carry some very fragile items on 5 hour flights that survived every time using these methods.
I hope you have a pleasant day 😊
Вы ответственная, умная и трудолюбивая девушка! Желаю вам добиться того, к чему вы стремитесь!
Жизнь филлипинки в Японии я бы поставил в один ряд с жизнью какой-нибудь казашки в Москве. Японцы - националисты не в меньшей степени. Выводы делайте сами. Могла бы казашка точно так же снимать интересные видео о своей жизни в другой стране?
I love watching videos from Japan. I'm in the UK but will visit Japan one day. Your channel is very good, very relaxing and you have great filming and editing skills. Keep up the great work x
Удачи тебе, милая! Спасибо тебе за твою человечность, за любовь и помощь родителям! Счастья тебе в жизни!
Very Interesting! I have always wanted to visit Japan, I love the culture and art!
I spent a year in Japan, Osaka. (Pre-covid) My "expenses" barely reached 2000€ and those where including 700€ for university costs monthly, 300€ for the apartment, 200€ in food, and around 500+€ for other expenses (transportation, clothes, cutlery, small furniture etc). I don't think Japan is expensive specially knowing how to handle yourself and of course control yourself a bit. I didn't go out often, didn't do much tourism beyond grabing a train and explore. No I did not live "as a student surviving of ramen" in fact I trated myself well able to buy expensive fruit (it is really expensive in Japan) and treating myself from time to time trying out Japanese dishes even at some fancy restaurants. If you guys manage where you live and have just a bit of savings you will be fine specially if you start working there. Just my two cents :)
Thanks for you interesting insight onto Japanese food and shopping. I love to see what people cook in other countries. We traveled to Japan in 2019 and we found the food to be of the highest quality. And as I love see food, i was very happy to find fresh Sashimi 🍣 everywhere. We also loved the food in your 7-Eleven shops. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺 🦘
Amazing story ! What you mentioned is anyone’s dream . To make something for yourself ! Nothing worth it comes easy . It’s crazy how far we come from how low we started . Your parents should absolutely be proud 👏
I love your sweatshirt 🧡🧡I'm from Cape Cod and lived here my entire life. Sending you blessings of love and peace.💜💜
I know your parents are proud of you!! You have accomplished so much!! Happy Easter to you!! 🙏❤️
What a wonderful, hard-working woman you are! Your parents are so lucky to have you. They must be so proud of you.
You are great ! Helping others … my heart mealting . Greetings from NL and PL ❤

Ты настоящая умничка, кормилица своих родителей и своих будущих детей!
Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. You’re doing amazingly and I’m sure your family is very proud of you. I hope you have a great time with your family and I bet they will all love the chocolate.. now I’m craving chocolate too! 😅
Love and hugs 💓
This is my first time watching you, I love Japan! You have a new subscriber, I love that you don’t speak unnecessarily.
Love from the USA!
I used to work at an American university with an American man who loved Japan. He lived there for 2 years as an English teacher and went back for visits. He introduced me to the work of film directors Kirosawa, Miyazaki, and Kobayashi. He would bring Japanese treats to the office; one of my favorites were matcha Pockys. I saw them in this video when you were shopping.
Happy Easter! I am in the United States, and I love your videos! :)
Os teus vídeos são sempre tão relaxantes e encorajadores... 😊 É um orgulho ver uma menina tão humilde e batalhadora. Muita força! 😘
❤😊✌️

In your dream😂
You are really doing a great job
Helping your parents and also managing yours
I really appreciate that
And really it is better to stay alone instead of being a part of the chaos around us
Keep it up😊
prices were very reasonable wow....you are a good daughter and a great human being....dinner looked absolutely Delish!
In Canada that basket would have been so expensive 😅
I'm envious of the cost of living there. And the quiet you have in your apartment. No slamming doors, no conversation audible from the street, no sounds of drills or lawnmowers. I live in the suburbs in San Diego and I wake up whenever somebody slams their car door. You're blessed and you give it back as well
Lou! Joyful Easter Wishes from Poland 💕💕💕
TWO DOLLARS FOR MIXED PORK AND BEEF?! Damn. We're getting shafted here in Canada, that little portion would've cost 20 bucks alone. Edit: Yeah, Pork and Beef, namely beef, is astronomically expensive here in Canada right now. Like i'd kill for beef that cost as much as a timmies Iced coffee.
I am so proud of you for helping your parents, I support and help my parents since I was 18 years old. I am now 45 and still send money on monthly bases.
Stumbled upon this cool vid 😊. Thank you for sharing. I love watching these kind of videos from other cultures. Very awesome of you to share.
My dream is to visit Japan as I am an American anime/manga artist/author. I live in Alaska here in the US and a small carton of milk like that for us is $8.25 !! I love seeing how low prices for food is there. I know cost of living is expensive there in Japan but wow that food is cheap!!
The cost of living is high in Japan? Compared to?
Ah... Alaska. Yeah. That tracks. They cant pay people to live there.
Good morning, Lou. I wish you happy Easter and a good week. Greetings from Brazil. 🇧🇷
Hi, Lou! Good evening from Brazil.
First of all, congratulations for making your dreams come true after all you've been through.
I have a lot of Respect and admiration for Japan and I actually would Love to live my life there.
I'm watching your video right now during this writing and I want to thank you for share a little of your life in Japan. I liked your cooking 😂 and I just want to wish all the best for you and I hope someday I can be in Japan because as I said before, I love the Culture, the respect and so many other things there.
Thanks a lot!
so relaxing 3 questions
-what do you do for living?
-Why put a coat in a vacuum bag? Did it take up a lot of space?
-in which city do you live
I'm so glad your doing so much for your family, but please do much for yourself, you are the one working hard and having earn this money you above all deserve most of it!!❤
Tu es une personne pleine de qualités humaines ❤❤❤
I was living alone for 9 years. The best moment of my life!
16 years for me so far,wouldnt want it any other way
Grocery items are Quite expensive, but you still managed to cook mouthwatering viands. Great weekends you have. Happy Easter Lou.
If you think this is expensive try east cost USA where I am, it's definitely higher over here
@@channeldoesnotexist I know. Thank you for that info. NY resident here.
Random tip i learned working in the produce department of a grocery store, is to always choose the avocados that haven't lost their stem. it lets in oxygen and begins to over ripen. I really enjoyed your video thanks!
Your live reminds me so much of my own. Thank for sharing your moments and to give others the feeling that they are not alone with their actuall livestyle.
Ваша розповідь про те ,що ви не мали ,що їсти дуже глибоко мене тронула,аж до сліз😢В мене була така ж ситуація! Батьки пишаються вами,я впевнена! Великий привіт з Одеси,України!❤
Last year, I was working full time, budgeting groceries, unable to afford date nights, and missing time with my kids. Now I learned how to make money online. Now am a SAHM, homeschooling, and making profits every week.
This video got me hooked, and now I’m determined to become a billionaire in just two years! 💪💰
That's great! I'm motivated too! How can we achieve this challenge?
No specific one really, because there are lots of investment plans and strategies littered all over the internet today, for instance, investments like real estates,gold, drop shipping crypto currency and lots more
Catherine S. Woods is an amazing tutor for crypto. Highly recommended! She’s been my Tutor and Mentor for past solid 8years!
Her availability is open on face b o o k
We call hamburg steak meatloaf here in the US, you cook it in the oven & put ketchup on top. The ketchup turns into a glaze. (You need an oven). It looks like a loaf of bread & you roast it. I like to add Worcestershire sauce & a handful of oats. We serve it with a side peas & mashed potatoes. (Comfort food). Mmmmm.
Instead of bread crumbs or oats have you tried stuffing? So good! It's the only way I will make it now.
You are such a blessing and inspiration, keep on following your dreams!!
this was so interesting to watch. Thank you!
Impressed she cooks her meals from scratch. If you live alone and work, it's usually easier to get ready meals, but they don't taste as good and certainly don't include all this fresh produce. Very enjoyable video, thank you. From the U.K
Young adult you live healthier than I. I am learning so much from you. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for sharing these moments of your everyday live! It’s very interesting to see how people live on the other side of the world:) Best wishes and good luck to you!

Its so relaxing 😌
You live in such a beautiful place. Thank you for sharing your life.
