@@NomadPush That would be awesome! I’ve been trying to finish this video for almost a year. Do you use Instagram? I’ll add you and work out the logistics of the video.
YOU HAVE A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY. A lot of people in the west and particularly the USA, are very interested in the life of Japanese people outside of the more public facing and glamourous depictions. Furthermore, there's a scarcity of content which honestly depicts this side of Japanese culture, particularly in the English language. Your English skills are more than adequate to fill this niche, and there are thousands of people who are interested.
@@NomadPush I want to second this. We don't get to see normal interactions, especially outside of big cities and popular places. And if you like traveling, you could show more of the country and give background. What I am about to say you should take with a grain of salt though, as I am not successful in creating content on UA-cam. It is correct that you don't earn that much, but be proud of what you have achieved so far. That being said, the number one thing I want to give you feedback on, is your repeating of stating numbers of subscribers and income. I believe this can be interesting for videos focusing on that side of the business, but I believe you should focus more on making content you love to create, things you have a passion for, because it will be visible. Don't ask for more subscribers, make content people want to subscribe for. UA-cam is showbiz, right? You have to convince people, that you are proud of what you do and achieved so far. Instead of asking for more subscribers, thank the ones you have, be proud of what you achieved. Invite people to follow your journey and be a part of it. (and I know that's hard, for me at least) Language wise: Don't worry, really. Your English is good. You do make mistakes (missing articles here and there mostly and a bit of wording) but it is easy to understand you. Coming from a language so different to English, you can be proud of your abilities. Don't be shy about it. You can add more Japanese terms or idioms, teach people things about Japanese they not know, or things you struggle with in English or find weird, if that is something you could enjoy. Like Skateboarding vocab? AND (because I do that in streaming as well): look more into the camera. I know it is weird, and it is uncomfortable for me at least. You are looking around a lot, seeming to avoid it. But it can be better to practice doing it more, or look into one direction at first. Looking closer to a point where the camera is also helps. And last but not least, again: do content you enjoy. You love skateboarding? Show people the best places in your area to do that. Do what you can afford to do and love to do right now and invite people into it. I do hope you can find a good way to increase your income and live comfortably again. Best of luck!
@@NomadPush You are definitely on track, im from Singapore and the fact that you have exposure even to my little country says a lot. Keep doing more interesting content, dont limit yourself to just skateboarding stuff. Your english is an edge that 99% of the other Japanese youtubers dont have. All the best!
Are you serious?! Your English is the best among the Japanese and many other foreign UA-camrs, the very popular ones, you don't have heavy Japanese accent, your pronunciation is so clear, it seems that you are a perfectionist, that might be keeping you holding back from the things you really want to do. I'm glad you started this channel inspite of doubting yourself. That is a great victory for everyone. I hope your channel explodes so that you can help others in similar situation you are in now. I wish you all the success in the world!
I remember when I was training to be a cook, the chef would say “perfect? Why would you want to be perfect? Perfect is where the ego and confidence goes to die, it can never live up to it. Are you dead? No??? then stop trying to die and be real instead!” Best life advice ever.
@@manofculturathank you for posting this. Ah jeez, it makes me happy. I'm trying to learn to be happy with my best, because trying my best what makes me happy. Trying to be perfect is impossible so i would get paralyzed and spiral into self destruction. The quote is super validating ♥️
You have an amazing opportunity to create the REAL Japan content that so many of us crave. I'm from Australia🇦🇺 and I am tired of the ego-driven, prefecture-sponsored, cliché-riddled formulaic bullsh*t that keeps appearing in my feed from US, Canadian, English and (sadly) Australian ex-pats who call themselves UA-camrs. Your English is SUPERB and I could listen to you all day, mate. Go hard. Seize this moment. Kick yourself some massive goals. You have absolutely got this.
agree. talk about the challenges, dont hide it - the problems get worse when its hidden and its not addressed. the awareness helps. The english is really good.
Exactly and start a channel subscription with premium content for like $5 US Dollars a month or $5.95 a month and i would subscribe and im sure i wouldnt be the only one...
@@NomadPush there's another skill you have you could make a living with. Teaching English online. Several other UA-camrs do well with Babble, teaching from their laptops or phones. Also Google reading books online/voice overs
@@NomadPush Until i heard you say in one of your videos that you were Japanese from Saipan I would have assumed you were an American. I don’t know how well you can write English, but your English speaking is no worse than most students at the American university where I work.
Man, your English is better then most people working customer service here in the US. Your English is seriously good, use it to your advantage, us westerners appreciate a Japanese man who speaks English in these videos. Subtitles are fine but you are actually speaking to us when you use English in your videos. I also came here from Pearl's video, glad she found such a down to earth guy to interview. I personally would like to see more about your life as a nomad in Japan. I can read all the info I want but it is much more personal watching a video from someone living there and experiencing it. I think alot of us viewers are interested in your perspective on life and the things you go through day to day. I hope things get better for you and I'm sure they will. Stay positive and I'll be forward to future videos from you.
Just consider the Japanese mindset. 🙂 Accepting or even giving praise to one selves is close to impossible. This approach to life is not better or worse then the more self-confident Western world view (which is not 100% great either). If you are in JP and say "konnichiwa", "sumimasen", "arigatou gozaimas" and a view more phrases you will be praised how good your Japanese is. 😉 All the best Nomad Push! 🛹
It is a shame that Japan is not honest about what is causing homelessness. The push to work 12 hour days, no time off. To put company first is just not healthy. I do believe the wars caused this change. Also Japan does not provide for the elderly, so if you do not have family you are at risk. I hope by subscribing this will help.
Your English is not only great but also engaging!! I don’t even watch oriental pearl but somehow the UA-cam algorithm recommended me to you and I kept watching the entire video. It’s not often these days that someone can have a video just themselves talking with no “catchy edits” and still be entertaining. You got this!
Your English is seriously good! Don’t think otherwise. I hope your channel gets more subs because the content is real and it’s good. It would also be interesting to see you visit places or traditional Japanese festivals, etc, that aren’t covered by other UA-camrs, since you’re always on the move and probably on the less-beaten path!
@@mongulkhanaxe6639I am born and raised in America, but my family is Colombian. NO ONE can tell me I’m not 100% Colombian because it is my blood, but ALSO I’m American by birth. YOU CAN BE BOTH. Just like Nomad, he is Japanese, no matter what anyone says.
@@monicaalvarez5696 this discussion made me read up on Saipan, as I had previously never heard of it. I'm terrible at history, but found the wikipedia article to be an interesting read.
Bro, you have almost 50,000 subscribers! Homeless life in Japan is mysterious and unique, something lots of people would be interested to know more about. If you just show us things that seem mundane to you, people will find it interesting, I will definitely watch it.
You are not homeless, my dear friend, but, as Kai, the Hatchet-Weilding Hitchhiker, would say, you are home free, or you became home free with the start of your challenges. In any case, you have a wonderful attitude, story and soul. I wish you all the best!
you have such a kind face and your manners are so sweet and soothing. i think your channel will grow. keep on going. i will be here and rooting you on!
You give me hope I quit my job I wasnt happy when working and depressed and got into a car accident in between the job and I'm going through a hard time now because of it I want to be a professional video gamer I'm putting my life into all of practicing and I've noticed my improvements a lot ill push forward like you! Thank you for keeping me motivated.
I've seen your true heart from your words in this video, and not only me 60k people subscribed to you! Keep it up brother and enjoy the journey!! Gambatte!!!
I support you. I think it's important to chase your dreams no matter how old you are. Jobs will always be there, but your health and energy to chase dreams will slowly fade away. I think it's so cool that despite how difficult some times are you still try to smile and appreciate the small things. You earned a new subscriber.
Found your channel and working my way through your videos… super humble, down to earth, cool guy… loving the skateboard / nomad lifestyle… I hope all your dreams come true, you deserve it.
Your English is excellent! It sounds basically fluent, as someone facing extreme financial struggles myself I'm wishing you all the best! I hope things get better for you very soon!
Californian here. Like others have mentioned, your English is *really* good. Your channel was recommended to me, and I subbed before finishing this video. Really curious about your life and lifestyle. Looking forward to following along :) Congrats on tripling your goal in such short order!
UA-cam seems to be pushing your channel hard right now. It makes sense as you've created authentic and enjoyable content. I've just subscribed as you've hit 15.7k subscribers and from what I can see in the comments it was less than 4,000 yesterday...so you've smashed you September goal of 1,000 😂. Keep up the hard work, everything will turn out great I'm sure!
Thank you for being transparent with us! I enjoy the way you build little stories in your videos (like the drum event) without telling us too much and we have to wait to see the clip. Let’s get to 1k and then 10k and so on! Safe travels!
🌴 I’m here after the Pearl interview, your English is great , your a young dude at 37 , I’m an Old guy watching from Florida USA, I’m so old when I fart dust comes out , so you have viewers coming in from around the world and at different ages , your in kinda unique situation, but you can use that situation being mobile, use not having a home to your advantage, bringing content ( or subject matter of your choice ) to millions of viewers, your English is great, and you have knowledge of the Japanese culture, life , food , everyday living that many people want to know about , I myself watch a lot of sushi vids, your a skate boarder, Nomad life sushi reviews or whatever subject you want, I watch a channel called Outdoor Chef with a Japanese guy called Taku, he’s a fishing dude that cooks his catch , he forages shore lines ( free food ) and he’s got another channel with his girl friend, he’s living in California but visits family in Japan, you have the potential to open your channel to the world and I’ve got a really good feeling this channel is going to take off , you just need to point it in a direction for whatever content you want to go , I’ll be be subbing and seeing what your going to do , stay safe and healthy, oh and hang on your channel is about to get real , ps. I’m married to an Asian your English is better than hers after living in the US for many years 🤣👍🏼
Two weeks ago you were at 600+ subscribers, and you thought getting to 1K in a month would be good? Two weeks later and you have 19.3K! That is awesome! I have almost watched all of your videos, have subscribed, and will be watching everything from now on. Your English is great! I love watching your travels & adventures. You are showing a side of Japan that we don’t get to see. Nomad life is a great way to describe your situation but even if you get to the point where you have an apartment again, keep making these nomad style videos. Keep showing us that side of Japan we don’t see. You are doing an amazing job. Travel videos are your thing!
You know if you wanted a side gig I bet you’d be uniquely placed to put together some really interesting tourist experiences for people who want to experience the “real” Japan. A lot of people like to travel to get an authentic feel for the country they’re visiting without getting drawn into kitsch tourist traps. Maybe you could put together videos of less well-known areas and experiences in Japan. Maybe you could even pour together and promote some ex packages for less well-known areas and experiences for small groups. People also like to travel on a budget these days so going shopping at thrift stores or eating at cheaper everyday shops or drinking at little local bars is very attractive to many budget-conscious tourists, but often inaccessible because English menus might not be available and Japanese people are often humble and shy about their English skills (though in my experience are really warm and friendly if someone makes the effort to break the ice). Looking forward to see you grow! がんばってください！
7:30 It isn't September yet but here you are, making WAAAAAVES in this channel. Your growth is inspiring. Thank you for sharing this authentic and different side of Japan life. 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽
Yep set goals and work and take action towards actualizing them. "Nothing happens unless something moves." I empathize with you bro because I know each of us individually are fighting our own battles and trying to make dreams into reality. I appreciate your good natured and down to earth attitude. Looking forward to watching more of your videos!
Your English is good my friend! Very easy to understand. I wish you all the best with your channels. I hope you can make a good enough income to keep going and living the nomad lifestyle
How did you develop your English so well? Westerners are definitely interested in the more grounded look at Japanese life. It feels like there's still such a big disconnect between the average American and the average Japanese person, despite how many Japanese products we consume, (anime, manga, etc.) It's crazy to me that you didn't think of using your English until now. The English speaking world is for sure interested in more Japanese content. I saw another channel of a 50 year old Japanese person talking about his life in English and it was so interesting. I hope this channel blows up! You gained a new subscriber. I hope you make a video about yourself discussing your English and other things.
He Raised in Saipan which in the country speak fluent English and Japanese and all other languages so I’m not American but I learn English in Saipan few years back in high school there
Good day. Im here after seeing your story on Oriental Pearl. I have just subscribed to your channel and wanted to get on here to say how much of an inspiration you are. Please keep up the good work, your english is amazing! I can't wait for you to show us the true Japan from a local point of view! Keep it real and authentic, this is going to be a good ride!
love your content man. am in japan next month; would love to buy you a meal! in the absence of that, please take this. stay safe! and thanks for taking us on the journey
Your English is great. Seriously, I can understand you better than a lot of native speakers, and your content is exactly the kind of real stuff most people want to see. The internet made TV obsolete because TV isn't real. One question; what happened to your old videos? I just came across you but don't see videos going back more than 2 months. A word of advice from someone who uses UA-cam WAAY more than I should, don't take those down. Keep them up. My algorithm the last year or so has been flooding me with old vids that don't have many views and I love it. And I know I'm not the only one experiencing that.
His English is great because it's a fake Asian accent. I find it very entertaining how he is conning a lot of people with this poor homeless, polite Japanese schtick. Kinda like Paris Hilton's fake baby talk.
Seeing you say you hoped to get to 1k subs, if I understood that correctly, and now 3 weeks later seeing you here at almost 24k is very inspiring and I hope you find all the success in the world and look forward to following you on this journey! Motivates me to (keep) do(ing) all the things!
Also, its impossible to force anyone to watch you. I think that is a part of what is making UA-cam such an important platform now, because it is people connecting more with others from outside their social network, on a level that a photo and caption like on other legacy platforms never allowed. It’s very interesting and inspiring witnessing this seemingly new renaissance of common people connecting with the world in a totally real and vulnerable and mostly unedited way.
this video randomly popped up on my feed. i think your english is really good and i’m interested in skating content (even though i’m almost 40) so keep going my friend! you have a new subscriber!
love you content, really interesting your honesty and transparency about the struggles of living in a developed world where its just getting harder and harder to survive
I wish I could skateboard, but I tried and fell off. I love those camera angles. You have a good channel. Would love to see more of the local skate communities.
頑張れ brother 🎉 You’re English is amazing! And your sense of adventure is on par with just the few and best explorers of the world! You’re so brave and I truly admire you 🙌🏽 Keep going please 🎉 I will be watching your channel because I just subscribed 👍🏽
Don't know how you got recommended to me bro, but I'm here and I don't mind it. You're a nice guy with an optimistic vision. I'll hit like on your stuff as long as you keep delivering it. All the best brother.
Bro I've been across Japan for 6 months in total, hitchhiking and meeting several people, and personalities like yours are rare there. You're one of a kind, and you sound very likable, genuine, and original, in a country where confirmism is the norm. I'm sure I'm not the only one that is definitely interested in watching this kind of content!
Ganbatte!!!! May your life be blessed with good health and prosperity. It is people like you that make me proud to learn Japanese and be able to come back to your beautiful country. Arigato Gozaimasu!
I was just asking myself earlier what makes this homeless UA-camr different from other homeless people in Japan. Lots of people doing UA-cam about Japan because it's a popular country for now. And the answer is because you are a skateboarder, not just homeless. And you go to places that's different from other UA-camrs in Japan. Local. Ground Level. Most Japan UA-camrs do very touristy videos, gloss it up, panoramic views (quite boring).
You are such an inspiration of freedom and courage 🎉I grew up in China and spent my 20s in Japan. I live in the UK in my 30s and feeling stuck for a while. Your energy inspired me, thank you ❤応援しています📣
Thank you for sharing your story. I have only seen a few videos but already know I will be watching for a lifetime and will be going over your old videos. Gambate!
@@NomadPushnew sub here love what you're doing I'm also living homeless right now in canada I don't take hard drugs or alcohol (just weed)but with the lack of decent paying jobs and high Ren and food I just can't afford it right now.hope the best for you.also your English is fantastic I have no problem understanding you.
Your English is extremely good and your accent is like native-level! At the beginning of the video, I even thought for a moment you were born in Canada from the way you spoke! (And I'm from Canada myself) Best of luck and I wish you success in your projects!
Dear Nomad, really felt like sending you support and good vibes from the Netherlands! I think you are one though guy and I hope life keeps changing for the best for you. You are not alone ❤️
You got my sub brother. I just got off of being homeless for some months its not as fun looking as you made it def and im not even a junkie but having to keep me and my kids in a motel everyday doing ubereats was tough not gonna lie. I thank God im not in that position. Many prayers and blessing sent your way. Ill be along for the journey.
Thankyou for sharing some of your story with us. You speak English better than alot of us Australians and English is our main language 😂 I hope you reach your goal of 1,000 subscribers by September 🙏
Did you spend time growing up in the USA? (my guess is Hawaii)? You have great English, I am a Canadian living in Japan and I actually wasn’t sure if you were Japanese or an Japanese/Asian-American living in Japan 😂 so to be fair your English is great. This is my first time watching your video excited to see more
What an amazing and unique story. I’m working on a video now about homelessness in Japan and would love to interview you.

Thank you too!
I think your English is very good. I came here from Oriental Pearl’s video. I look forward to watching our video’s. Best of luck to you.
Thanks for coming
you have such a kind face and your manners are so sweet and soothing. i think your channel will grow. keep on going. i will be here and rooting you on!
You give me hope I quit my job I wasnt happy when working and depressed and got into a car accident in between the job and I'm going through a hard time now because of it I want to be a professional video gamer I'm putting my life into all of practicing and I've noticed my improvements a lot ill push forward like you! Thank you for keeping me motivated.
I like your vibe man, wishing you the best in everything you do!
Thank you so much
I've seen your true heart from your words in this video, and not only me 60k people subscribed to you! Keep it up brother and enjoy the journey!! Gambatte!!!
I support you. I think it's important to chase your dreams no matter how old you are. Jobs will always be there, but your health and energy to chase dreams will slowly fade away. I think it's so cool that despite how difficult some times are you still try to smile and appreciate the small things. You earned a new subscriber.
🙌🙏🙌
Found your channel and working my way through your videos… super humble, down to earth, cool guy… loving the skateboard / nomad lifestyle… I hope all your dreams come true, you deserve it.
Your English is excellent! It sounds basically fluent, as someone facing extreme financial struggles myself I'm wishing you all the best! I hope things get better for you very soon!
I'm normally not a commenter, but your story and vibes are awesome! Keep up the great work man! 😁
I appreciate that!
Californian here. Like others have mentioned, your English is *really* good. Your channel was recommended to me, and I subbed before finishing this video. Really curious about your life and lifestyle. Looking forward to following along :) Congrats on tripling your goal in such short order!
Awesome, thank you!
Glad you've surpassed the goal of 1k. You're at 70k as of July 11, 2024🎉
UA-cam seems to be pushing your channel hard right now. It makes sense as you've created authentic and enjoyable content. I've just subscribed as you've hit 15.7k subscribers and from what I can see in the comments it was less than 4,000 yesterday...so you've smashed you September goal of 1,000 😂. Keep up the hard work, everything will turn out great I'm sure!
Will do!!!
I’ll be binge watching your videos, and sharing! I hope your page blows up!!! 🔥🫶🏾
🔥🙏🔥
Thank you for being transparent with us! I enjoy the way you build little stories in your videos (like the drum event) without telling us too much and we have to wait to see the clip. Let’s get to 1k and then 10k and so on! Safe travels!
Thanks!! 10k🙌🔥🙌
Your english is great, seriously no issues. All the best from the UK.
🇬🇧🔥🙌
I wish you all the best in your adventures. You have a kind and humble spirit.
🌴 I’m here after the Pearl interview, your English is great , your a young dude at 37 , I’m an Old guy watching from Florida USA, I’m so old when I fart dust comes out , so you have viewers coming in from around the world and at different ages , your in kinda unique situation, but you can use that situation being mobile, use not having a home to your advantage, bringing content ( or subject matter of your choice ) to millions of viewers, your English is great, and you have knowledge of the Japanese culture, life , food , everyday living that many people want to know about , I myself watch a lot of sushi vids, your a skate boarder, Nomad life sushi reviews or whatever subject you want, I watch a channel called Outdoor Chef with a Japanese guy called Taku, he’s a fishing dude that cooks his catch , he forages shore lines ( free food ) and he’s got another channel with his girl friend, he’s living in California but visits family in Japan, you have the potential to open your channel to the world and I’ve got a really good feeling this channel is going to take off , you just need to point it in a direction for whatever content you want to go , I’ll be be subbing and seeing what your going to do , stay safe and healthy, oh and hang on your channel is about to get real , ps. I’m married to an Asian your English is better than hers after living in the US for many years 🤣👍🏼
Here from Oriental Pearls UA-cam - Wishing you all the best in your future and success with UA-cam and your channel.
🔥🙌🔥
Same here!
Japan is extremely clean. Thanks for videos
Language lady brought me here. Following. Love videos like this :-) Best from Norway.
🙌🙏🙌
Love the transparency! Thanks for sharing your story. Can’t wait to see more. 🙏🏼
🔥🙏🔥
Love hearing that you are hoping for 1k followers and seeing you at 46.2k! Keep going friend!
Two weeks ago you were at 600+ subscribers, and you thought getting to 1K in a month would be good? Two weeks later and you have 19.3K! That is awesome! I have almost watched all of your videos, have subscribed, and will be watching everything from now on. Your English is great! I love watching your travels & adventures. You are showing a side of Japan that we don’t get to see. Nomad life is a great way to describe your situation but even if you get to the point where you have an apartment again, keep making these nomad style videos. Keep showing us that side of Japan we don’t see. You are doing an amazing job. Travel videos are your thing!
Two days later, and he's at 30K subscribers!
Thank you for posting this! So real and I’m so sorry! Hope things pick up❤
🔥🙌🔥
Wow what a story and life. Much love from Philippines. Me and my wife have been homeless in the U.S before and feel for you. Keep the Faith.
You know if you wanted a side gig I bet you’d be uniquely placed to put together some really interesting tourist experiences for people who want to experience the “real” Japan. A lot of people like to travel to get an authentic feel for the country they’re visiting without getting drawn into kitsch tourist traps. Maybe you could put together videos of less well-known areas and experiences in Japan. Maybe you could even pour together and promote some ex packages for less well-known areas and experiences for small groups.
People also like to travel on a budget these days so going shopping at thrift stores or eating at cheaper everyday shops or drinking at little local bars is very attractive to many budget-conscious tourists, but often inaccessible because English menus might not be available and Japanese people are often humble and shy about their English skills (though in my experience are really warm and friendly if someone makes the effort to break the ice). Looking forward to see you grow! がんばってください！
Keep your head up & dont beat yourself up too much, your English is great, good luck on your journey, I'll be keeping an eye on your channel 🙏
🙏🙏🙏
7:30 It isn't September yet but here you are, making WAAAAAVES in this channel. Your growth is inspiring. Thank you for sharing this authentic and different side of Japan life. 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽
Yep set goals and work and take action towards actualizing them. "Nothing happens unless something moves." I empathize with you bro because I know each of us individually are fighting our own battles and trying to make dreams into reality. I appreciate your good natured and down to earth attitude. Looking forward to watching more of your videos!
I will keep moving🔥🙌
Your English is good my friend! Very easy to understand. I wish you all the best with your channels. I hope you can make a good enough income to keep going and living the nomad lifestyle
Nomad Push🔥🙌🔥
Your English is perfect!! I know people who lived abroad and still nowhere near to your level !!! Keep it up ~
Thank you! Will do!
How did you develop your English so well? Westerners are definitely interested in the more grounded look at Japanese life. It feels like there's still such a big disconnect between the average American and the average Japanese person, despite how many Japanese products we consume, (anime, manga, etc.) It's crazy to me that you didn't think of using your English until now. The English speaking world is for sure interested in more Japanese content. I saw another channel of a 50 year old Japanese person talking about his life in English and it was so interesting.
I hope this channel blows up! You gained a new subscriber. I hope you make a video about yourself discussing your English and other things.
He Raised in Saipan which in the country speak fluent English and Japanese and all other languages so I’m not American but I learn English in Saipan few years back in high school there
I visited Kyoto in 2008 from New Zealand. Kyoto was amazing.
🔥🙌🔥
Homelessness needs to be acknowledged in Japan. Your videos are wonderful.
Good day. Im here after seeing your story on Oriental Pearl. I have just subscribed to your channel and wanted to get on here to say how much of an inspiration you are. Please keep up the good work, your english is amazing! I can't wait for you to show us the true Japan from a local point of view! Keep it real and authentic, this is going to be a good ride!
Thanks for subbing
love your content man. am in japan next month; would love to buy you a meal! in the absence of that, please take this. stay safe! and thanks for taking us on the journey
I appreciate that!
You'll be alright. Stay positive.
🔥🙌🔥
Your English is great. Seriously, I can understand you better than a lot of native speakers, and your content is exactly the kind of real stuff most people want to see. The internet made TV obsolete because TV isn't real.
One question; what happened to your old videos?
I just came across you but don't see videos going back more than 2 months. A word of advice from someone who uses UA-cam WAAY more than I should, don't take those down. Keep them up. My algorithm the last year or so has been flooding me with old vids that don't have many views and I love it. And I know I'm not the only one experiencing that.
His English is great because it's a fake Asian accent. I find it very entertaining how he is conning a lot of people with this poor homeless, polite Japanese schtick. Kinda like Paris Hilton's fake baby talk.
Hugs from Ukraine!
Thanks for being honest and transparent. I been watching all your vids the past week and the simplicity of them makes it easy to watch.
I am here because I watch Oriental Pearl. Wishing you all the best.
Thanks🔥🙏🔥
Seeing you say you hoped to get to 1k subs, if I understood that correctly, and now 3 weeks later seeing you here at almost 24k is very inspiring and I hope you find all the success in the world and look forward to following you on this journey! Motivates me to (keep) do(ing) all the things!
Also, its impossible to force anyone to watch you. I think that is a part of what is making UA-cam such an important platform now, because it is people connecting more with others from outside their social network, on a level that a photo and caption like on other legacy platforms never allowed. It’s very interesting and inspiring witnessing this seemingly new renaissance of common people connecting with the world in a totally real and vulnerable and mostly unedited way.
Subscribed.
I hope you get some sponsors too. Wishing you all the best, my dude.
Much appreciated!
this video randomly popped up on my feed. i think your english is really good and i’m interested in skating content (even though i’m almost 40) so keep going my friend! you have a new subscriber!
love you content, really interesting your honesty and transparency about the struggles of living in a developed world where its just getting harder and harder to survive
I really enjoyed listening to you and I’m rooting for you! You’ve got yourself a new subscriber :) Good luck!
🙏🔥🙌
I wish I could skateboard, but I tried and fell off. I love those camera angles. You have a good channel. Would love to see more of the local skate communities.
Thanks so much!
頑張れ brother 🎉 You’re English is amazing! And your sense of adventure is on par with just the few and best explorers of the world! You’re so brave and I truly admire you 🙌🏽 Keep going please 🎉 I will be watching your channel because I just subscribed 👍🏽
Wow, thanks
I saw you on another channel and I thought your experience was unique, bbut so well spoken and humble. Love it, going to watch all your videos.
Don't know how you got recommended to me bro, but I'm here and I don't mind it. You're a nice guy with an optimistic vision. I'll hit like on your stuff as long as you keep delivering it. All the best brother.
🔥🙌🔥
Congratulations! You blew past your goal!!
Greetings from Germany! Your English is very good. Keep the videos coming :-)
Bro I've been across Japan for 6 months in total, hitchhiking and meeting several people, and personalities like yours are rare there. You're one of a kind, and you sound very likable, genuine, and original, in a country where confirmism is the norm. I'm sure I'm not the only one that is definitely interested in watching this kind of content!
🙌🔥🙌
Put out longer vids like a stream VOD, I would totally watch
Thank you😭🙏
Ganbatte!!!! May your life be blessed with good health and prosperity. It is people like you that make me proud to learn Japanese and be able to come back to your beautiful country. Arigato Gozaimasu!
I was just asking myself earlier what makes this homeless UA-camr different from other homeless people in Japan. Lots of people doing UA-cam about Japan because it's a popular country for now. And the answer is because you are a skateboarder, not just homeless. And you go to places that's different from other UA-camrs in Japan. Local. Ground Level. Most Japan UA-camrs do very touristy videos, gloss it up, panoramic views (quite boring).
🙌👍🤝
You are such an inspiration of freedom and courage 🎉I grew up in China and spent my 20s in Japan. I live in the UK in my 30s and feeling stuck for a while. Your energy inspired me, thank you ❤応援しています📣
Thanks for sharing!!
Ahh, things make much more sense now. Appreciate the transparency, I'll keep supporting ya! 😃 Think you're gonna go big with this one 😎
I will try🔥🙌🔥
Your English is so good. Didn't expect this. What a gem to find on UA-cam. Wish you the best for the future!
Yep Oriental Pearl sent me this way. All subscribed and commenting. How in the world did your English get so great.?
🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for sharing your story. I have only seen a few videos but already know I will be watching for a lifetime and will be going over your old videos. Gambate!
"I can maybe reach 1000 subs in a month." 2 weeks later... 10,000 subs. 😅

Your English is extremely good and your accent is like native-level! At the beginning of the video, I even thought for a moment you were born in Canada from the way you spoke! (And I'm from Canada myself) Best of luck and I wish you success in your projects!
Wow, thank you!

Did you spend time growing up in the USA? (my guess is Hawaii)?
You have great English, I am a Canadian living in Japan and I actually wasn’t sure if you were Japanese or an Japanese/Asian-American living in Japan 😂 so to be fair your English is great.
This is my first time watching your video excited to see more
he's a "Jungle Prince" from Saipan.
Thanks!! Yeah, I’m from Saipan. Kinda like Hawaii so you are right👍😆
@@NomadPush Ahhh ! So interesting! My guess was Hawaii because of your accent but it makes sense! Thank you for sharing 🙏
