Love not having the ‘Angry Black Woman’ stereotype in Japan. “I can Just Be Me” it made me Happy to hear her say that but also Sad that’s our Reality here in the USA. I LOVE HER ENERGY & LOVE FOR SAPRO❤️
@@gamerguru7428 quit projecting. You have been all up and down this comment thread trying to make it seem like black women are such a problem. This young lady is not like that. And neither are none of the women that I have seen interviewed so far.
"I date anybody that wants to date me." Yessssss!!! I wish more black women would open their options when dating. You're gorgeous, Laurin! Your personality is amazing and you are radiant!
@@francescaldwell4217 why? If they are telling her, to her face I might add, that they are not wanting to date her. What the hell is she supposed to do?
I agree that it’s a good thing to be open to date all types of people because everyone is different and has value. Especially if you are living in a foreign country, you should experience everything that place has to offer, and fully immerse yourself in that culture. What better way than to broaden the perspective of black people than to allow all people experience you, as well 😌
Black women are the most beautiful women among all ethnicities that chocolatey like skin tone is EVERYTHING!!! Skin soft as silk and strong as iron at the same time. They win with their hands down.
I always get flak for saying this but, when a foreign lives in Japan/South Korea for a while, usually women since they take care of their skin more commonly than guys, their skin has a certain glow. It's their skincare products/techniques. Way better than the rest, especially their moisturizers and sunblock lotions. It's not only genes, people! 😋 If they weren't so expensive to import )))):
You gotta tell us how you meet these very interesting people...so far, I've been impressed with these great personalities and informative people. Thanks again, Renzo.
Wow, this has to be one of my favourite interviews on this channel. I loved the variety of questions that were asked too. Laurin must've been sooo fun to talk to! She's funny, sweet, genuine and so charismatic! Would love to have a friend like her! I'm gonna take her advice and not move to Japan in the way that she did lol, but she has really inspired me and reminded me of why I'm doing what I'm doing.
Don't you have to prove that you or a family member has more than 10 000 dollars in a bank account if you're coming for a long period of time? at least that's what I had to do when I went there as a student.
@Josepha-Michal Walker: So can you get there on less now? I have more than 5K and speak a little Japanese but have no experience teaching nor a degree in anything only a tech certificate in graphic design. I do wanna leave the US tho and possibly never return. I am looking at other countries too tho as I am female.
@@ThexDynastxQueen Japan is still a nation that has and will continue to have problems with the race issue. They recently lifted their immigration standards but for the poorest parts of the Asian Diaspora to come in: Vietnam, Cambodia, the Philippines. Japanese consider these people as not only beneath then but so desperate to make $ to send home that they will endure anything and everything. Immigration from the African or Caribe Diasporas remain the same. African-Americans and African-British must have the hustle and plan to succeed. In the Melanated files you hear about this and the power of relationship with Japanese people to get started because you can't truly rent an apartment or business location without them having a hand in it. You'll be in the cheap internet cafes at night gaming ,computing and/or sleeping like most broke as a joke young Japanese do. I was hired for a job before I moved there so I would recommend that to you. Since you have some tech skills that's definitely a positive that could open up freelancing jobs for you. Make sure to speak with those interviewed for this channel as well as utilizing NHK World Japan app to catch the current news and living situation in Japan.Also be advised that hospitals will turn you away because you're non Japanese as well so find out the medical centers that are gaijin friendly.
Loved this interview. She hit the nail on the head about how only knowing one language cripples you and is dangerous (most americans). Something I've recently realized myself and why I'm so interested international travel and watch videos like this lol. Currently learning mandarin chinese and also interested in learning Arabic.
I'm so impressed that you challenge yourself to "go further" and embrace the adventure of living in Japan! I like how you taught your students to ask before touching your hair--you're a born teacher!
This lady seems so down to earth! No BS, just super real(totally awesome personality). I wish I had a friend like her, and she has great smile, and really cute. It’s a shame she’s in Sapporo. :(
This girls smile is *infectious* She compels you to just smile every time!!! She's like a ray of sunshine; the guy who will be _lucky_ enough to marry her one day is gonna be one happy man! :) BTW: She looks soooo damn much like a _young_ Stephanie Mills!

@@@juniordunkley5298 What? lol Was anyone claiming to be making your "proper documentary film", and FOR FREE? lol It happens to be a great interview .... for Black people, the mostly targeted audience, and who can 'understand' each other even without having to talk about or show your silly 'supermarket' or witless 'workplace', etc. It is easy to 'read' the interviewee and learn much. If you are not Black, that is just too bad. lol This site is about the 'Black Experience' after all!

Yeah, I'm from SC as well and hope to visit Japan during the 2020 Summer Olympics. What a LEAP of faith you took. How are you learning Japanese? So proud of you and continued success with all of your endeavors! Great interview!
I have enjoyed this interview. Laurin, thank you for sharing your experience with us. Your sunny disposition and your courage was awesome to experience. Lots of love from Nairobi.
Girl, expand your horizons date wise! If the black men in Japan are mostly going for Japanese women, keep your options open - look for compatibility across the board not just ethnicity. Enjoyed this interview ✌🏾👌🏾
@@francescaldwell4217 please, the black men are dating asian women. They dont mind dating outside of their race. Date whoever or whatever ethinicity you want to.
Attraction is a complicated thing so I hate it when someone gets judged for only dating one race or someone who dates many different races. She seems pretty self aware so I'm sure she knows what she finds attractive and what she doesn't. I've dated guys of all races so I don't have a preference when it comes to that. But I do agree with your advice to her. Especially since she's in a foreign country with a very limited supply of black men. ;-)
Omg! I loved this interview!!! I am currently learning the Japanese language. I totally loved that she said that there is NO angry black woman stereotype.💜 This was very positive & very eye opening in a good way.💜 She's awesome 💜
Why do I want to make friends with everyone you interview! Everyone is so inspiring. I cannot wait till my family and I are living outside the country and living our best life.
I definitely like the new 'walking around' approach. *Seeing everything she's talking about excites me even more.* Now I'm considering *Sapporo* in my trip.
@feliceluvzya1 i never understood the loyalty thing. it seems like such an old fashioned sentiment. i don't know any black women 'loyal' to a certain race of men. we all seem to do our own thing.
I had a problem finding black propel in Japan who speak Japanese. I am glad to stumble upon this channel for some time. I always see a new notification but never watch it and this has motivated me more than ever to fully prepare myself for what’s the possibly come. Thank you!!
Also me I have money for ticket only but I am trying to save money for three months at least to survive my first three months I will try it so long to reach my Japan dream
Ranzo, the production quality has leveled up! Wonderful footage in the B-roll. Sapporo is beautiful. Very informative interview. The dating story was rough, especially the Tindr experience. Breast groping creeped me out. That's heading towards sexual battery. Laurin represents Cackalacky well, and much success to her.
I am with her, I too, wish we were more serious about caring for the Earth. I understand that very much, many on the globe (editing for celerity) seem to have been trained to see black women as one dimension (negative). Instead of makeing up their own minds (without biases) on the small amount ( if they know any at all) of black women they have truly interacted with. Instead of believing whole heartily their only use is for dispense (as toilets( harsh wording to make a point)). But mature black women have the same mindset as her. Smile and carry on, because this is others issues; and it's wise not to let such awfulness get to you. For those women, being your best is important to achieve a brilliant life; than to wallow in darkness.😁
@@sunnyedaize1262 - nope, definitely wrong. I am such an activate for black man as well. My personal experience with black men have been intriguing 🥰. Why don't you simple ask; and no didn't get rejected either...people! 🙄
They haven't been "trained" to see you as negative. Many black women ARE negative; but you refuse to listen to anyone's point of view that doesn't have a vagina or whose skin isn't pale. Therefore you just sit in your little female echo chamber and angrily deny what black men have experienced dealing with you.
What a beautiful spirit! Thank you for sharing your story with us Laurin 💛 Ranzo, this one was so good, this is now my most favorite interview! I love this walking style, hope to see more interviews in this style 😎
Oh my Godness.... I am only in the 1st 2 min of this video! This lady is amazing! She is immensely radiant and she has amazing magnetism!

I’m so happy you’re posting. I’m a Marine Corps veteran and I was stationed in Okinawa for a year. I actually learned to drive cars with manual transmissions when I purchased 2 vehicles there. I’d love ❤️ to know more about tutoring in Japan. I’m an English major and actually enjoy writing ✍️ most of all. I wondered what I would do with my hair while living there. While in uniform I just wore it up but have it professionally done here in Virginia Beach. I can’t imagine I’ll have that luxury if I relocated there. It definitely wouldn’t stop me from coming. Looking forward to learning Japanese as well. Please guide those of us who are not teachers but would like to tutor English. I’ve often thought of working remotely but Okinawa really was one of my favorite duty stations. I’m aware that mainland Japan is different but I’d like to know more.
Work that magic with that gimbal/stabilizer 😉 I really love this run and gun type of interview: not every interviewee will be able to pull this off (I'd personally be too distracted) but she did great & so did you!!
I absolutely love her voice. It's just so sweet and comforting and if I was a student I would definitely listen to everything she says and I would be such a good student.
Exceptional interview, Laurin has such a wealth of knowledge and taking the courage to move with only $500.00 and a prayer. Thank you for sharing your personal experience and may you continue to be blessed and encourage.
Wow! Outstanding interview as well as congrats for the weight loss since you have been there Laurin! I have applied to Sophia University in Tokyo as a transfer student and will be coming there with my 10 year old daughter for at least one semester in April 2023. Hope we can meet while I am there! Take good care and thanks for being so open and real!
Just found your channel and have been shamelessly binge-watching. This and all of your content is so high quality, THANK YOU for putting it out there! On my mother's side we originally came from Fukuoka (Moji) area, and I've been doing research pursuant to relocation from American to Japan. Content like this really brings people together and my family appreciates your work so much. I want to comment on every single video but in the interest of time will at least do this one! Fantastic interview and totally relatable, honest commentary from guest Laurin Young. Thank you again BEJ and Laurin for sharing this story!
Being away from the American diet saved her life. She is so wonderful, so kind and modest. The people must love her in Japan, she has such a kind way about herself.
Im lovin her vibe. Made me think about how crazy it would be if I moved all the way to Tokyo and found my black queen there! lol Would definitley be happy if I met someone like her out there.
I loved this interview... she really told the good, the bad and the ugly. She is so genuine.
Also my impression.
She said black woman is dtf what is that?
facts totally agree
Janelle Flagg Down to F..k anything with a peepee
I agree, she told us her whole experience and gave her honest story. She seems like a genuine-hearted person and im glad i watched this.
I like the way this was filmed it feels like your just walking down the street with her and having a real conversation. I love it!
I wlda been so outta breath lmaoo
Yaaasss loved it too

I absolutely love her voice. It's just so sweet and comforting and if I was a student I would definitely listen to everything she says and I would be such a good student.
Exceptional interview, Laurin has such a wealth of knowledge and taking the courage to move with only $500.00 and a prayer. Thank you for sharing your personal experience and may you continue to be blessed and encourage.
Wow! Outstanding interview as well as congrats for the weight loss since you have been there Laurin! I have applied to Sophia University in Tokyo as a transfer student and will be coming there with my 10 year old daughter for at least one semester in April 2023. Hope we can meet while I am there! Take good care and thanks for being so open and real!
Unfortunately, I am no longer living in Japan.... for now. 😉 Enjoy Tokyo! I've been and I admit, I enjoyed it. Hokkaido is still number 1 though. 😆
Another wonderful interview! This channel is so affirming and encouraging.
Just found your channel and have been shamelessly binge-watching. This and all of your content is so high quality, THANK YOU for putting it out there! On my mother's side we originally came from Fukuoka (Moji) area, and I've been doing research pursuant to relocation from American to Japan. Content like this really brings people together and my family appreciates your work so much. I want to comment on every single video but in the interest of time will at least do this one! Fantastic interview and totally relatable, honest commentary from guest Laurin Young. Thank you again BEJ and Laurin for sharing this story!
You’re welcome MJ and thank you for sharing your thoughts with us! 🙏🏿
Another favorite! 😋 Love the content this channel produces!
Your name lol
She has such a shining personality! Wow. Great interview
I really enjoyed her interview!!! She didn’t downplay her experience or hold back! 💯
Being away from the American diet saved her life.
She is so wonderful, so kind and modest.
The people must love her in Japan, she has such a kind way about herself.
I'm glad she told the truth . A lot of people think that everything is perfect.
She spoke to my soul when she mentioned the boondocks quote.
Best one I’ve seen yet! Love this interview!
Another awesome interview!!!
That was an amazing interview. Much continued success to you Laurin.
Im lovin her vibe. Made me think about how crazy it would be if I moved all the way to Tokyo and found my black queen there! lol Would definitley be happy if I met someone like her out there.
In 2 years I'm gonna be on BEJ. That's a promise.
matasuki lessss goooo! I wanna see so many more of these
why not now?
Laurin Young, I love your sense of adventure and your resourcefulness! You are a beautiful brave woman! Good luck!
