Hey cutie 🥰
New sub. Full video watched. Very informative. Thank you young lady.
OMG You look like an anime character lol...very beautiful eyes :)
Hello beautiful Jamaican woman. I have a few questions for you. Number one...I wanted to add your Instagram but it goes to some page that it is not your page possibly. I wanted to ask you some questions about Japan. Number two...I would like to talk to you off of UA-cam. What I need to discuss with you about Japan is not everyone's business lol! Contact me ASAP. Stay beautiful.
This looks like so much fun and carefree
Why would anyone eat dry squids. Sound like punishment 😂😂😂
Squid Yuki. tastes bad 👎
Awwwww 😊😊😊 I love this video.. I will miss my peeps 😂
Would it be possible for you to change jobs? Like teaching at a private school
I missed your vlogs
What happens if you dispose of your garbage incorrectly? Is there a penalty?
How will u get ignition then 😂
Thank you, very informative! Would you advice someone to take a driving job or non driving job ?
Thank you for sharing this... What are the maximum hours Interac allowed you to work?
Working online means there won’t be any visa requirements as the ALT will be working from his home country and not going to Japan. This also means a bachelor’s degree won’t be required and it would be up to the Eikawa school to set the standards themselves. If only a high school education is required the 200,000 JPY might be good enough since they won’t have to bust their ass working for McDonalds.
Many American ALTs can’t afford to work for such low pay especially with student loans needing to be repaid, hiring ALTs while working online while they work as a night security guard stateside and getting paid to be an online ALT over zoom would work since they would be getting paid from two employers at the same time.
While Japan is very cheap given the high quality and is a great place to spend dollars that can get you over 150 yen per dollar, wages in Japan can be much lower also than you can earn in US, Canada and Australia for example.
I really understand what you mean when sometimes there's mix meat or it's not clearly labeled what kind of meat is in something. I don't eat any meat so I'm still trying to find my way around buying Japanese food 😭
If i work in japan i want to go on a date with you 😮❤
👀👀👀👀👀
This is fabulous. I miss to come over there sometime. Thank you for sharing and letting us know more about Japanese food.
Thank you for watching.
You're most welcome ❤
Thank you so much for the detailed information 🤗👏👍! Arigato Sensei!
Thank you for watching 😊
I would love to have seen the roses bloom. Cat seems to be a thing in Japan. I heard about a place called Cat Island in japan where there are more cats than people.
From what I have seen from pictures, it would have been beautiful. When I was moving here I really wanted to go to cat island but it’s very far from where I live.
Awesome! such a beautiful place, the cats are cute, do you like puppies too? hahaha
Puppies are cute but I prefer cats.
@@shandavlog that's I like puppies and baby cats too. 😄
Hii do you need a laptop for teaching?
I would say yes but you can survive without it. It does help but if you plan on working with schools that have a contract with Interac the school usually provides a device (laptop/tablet) that you can use at school to get your work done. If they don’t provide one you can ask Interac to ask the school to provide you with something to get your work done while at school.
hey cutie. what is the process in regards to a background check?
Hey. A background check for what?
@@shandavlog when i lived in china they did a background check via the fbi here in usa. it is required for the visa. did you have to do that for japan? it's a long process.
@@shandavlog and how are the japanese towards chinese people?
I’ve never had one done on me nor do I know anyone who has had any done on them. When I was moving here I had to provide a police certificate/ record from my county and that’s about it.
Did you buy the car for yourself or do they provide it
I didn’t buy mine. It’s on rental through my company. I have friends who bought theirs though. That’s always an option.
So they pay for accommodation?
No.
@@shandavlog dang!
The full breakdown is in the video
I remember you from 4h days... Big up
I think we still follow each other on fb.
Thanks for sharing this but please do you know if the pay is same for everyone regardless of the city one stays in?
As far as I know it might vary slightly depending on the area but not by much at all.
Thanks a lot
Interac has not improved one bit since I left. I don't understand why people continue to work for them when they continuously penny pinch their employees. I remember convincing myself to stay after 2 years because I loved working at my placement and my schools were amazing.. But one day I realized i had less than 300 USD in my bank account for a month after all the deductions and proration during the summer and decided that's enough.
@@klwin360 you can't compare your situation with others. People are enjoying doing what they are doing.
We can all agree that the salary is not great great, but, everyone has their reasons for deciding to stay or leave. Every situation is different. Also, I always get my full salary in summer. The only time my salary is prorated is in spring.
It's sad that you'd need a second job in order to really save or send money back home... very informative video.
Yes. It is what it is. We just have to do what we have to do. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for sharing, you're such a honest girl. Congratulations for your salary increment.
Thank you but that increase is a joke. 😂 Thank you for continuing to watch and support.
@@shandavlog 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@shandavlog 🤣 you're welcome
Wow! I love the surrounding for sure.
It’s beautiful.
Nice vlog, looks fun
Thank you for watching.
Thanks for sharing, very informative
Thank you for watching 🤗
What is making that sound?
Frogs 🐸
Hmmm. Other countries should implement this process for DL renewal s. Things like eye testing are important to good driving when you think about.
I think they should too. Thanks for watching 🤗
Thanks for sharing. Very informative 😊
Thanks for watching 🤗
Wow! Very informative❤❤❤😊
Thank you for watching.
@@shandavlog you're most welcome
Long time 😅
Huh
This is very interesting. How does it cure people diseases? I wish to see it and hear some testimonies. Somethings will make me travel for sure.
I cannot tell you exactly how it works because I don’t. I think it’s faith based though.
@@shandavlog I believe so.
Here baking and watching your videos...me always tired too ...here with my 2 boys me always tired but we have to get things done. Great vlog
Thank you for watching. It is very much understandable that you are tired. You have two small boys and run your own business. What’s my excuse? 😩
Looks like so much fun. Makes me long for the outdoors 😊 enjoy
The serenity was just top notch.
Beautiful scenery ❤. Thanks for sharing
Thank you for watching.
Great vlog..happy to see that your over a thousand subs way to go 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you and thank you for watching.
Such a beautiful mountain. Wow! I like hiking too. Thank you for sharing ❤🎉
The video doesn’t do it justice. It was very beautiful.
@@shandavlog wow! I wish to see that fullness of beauty.
❤
Thanks for watching the premier.
Please explain how to apply or renew your passport from Japan
I will. Stayed tuned for the next week long vlog.
I wish I could buy one of your hair bonnets.
If only shipping wasn’t so terrible.
Me too.
Hey dear ... Welcome Back! we still need that meet up girl
Thank you. I keep telling you to message me on insta or FB.
