    Oh dearest Kiko, I feel very sorry for you! I’ve been living in Germany for many years and I unfortunately had to experience similar things… very traumatic. I send you empathetic greetings and a lot of friendly, supportive hugs from the bottom of my heart ❤️

    I love how positive and confident you are 🥰🥰 Your vibe is very refreshing! I'm also a "tall" Asian 182 cm, back home I was the tallest among almost everyone, but now I live in the Netherlands and here I'm average haha

      Thank you lovely! 🥰Yes, I've heard that the Netherlands has the tallest people and when I was visiting there, I certainly felt good about my height haha I hope for you that people there treat you well and that you feel safe and good 🤍🤍

    Fun facts : my bro and myself have 12cm difference.. Same parents ( we did check, yep, i swear ! ) but 13 years of difference.. so maybe something changed in the food, but anyway...
    The "problem" with the guys approaching tall girls is that sometimes it's just on 2 faces : being challenging oneself (as smaller guy) or by a huge arrogance, which is a sure way to never reach happiness in relationships.
    But nothing should stop true love if one day you meet someone interesting.
    Sadly, it might make some problems when in... privacy moments.. size matters when one of the two has to climb or be acrobatic to reach ..lets say.. the nirvana.
    About safety, i can understand you.
    I was beaten ALL my youth along.. until i started (well, precisely more after 3 years of ) practicing martial arts.
    Judo and Aikido.. not bad for a START, but to face real danger, i could really not suggest you better than joining a Bujinkan group.
    Krav maga, thaï boxing are far too violent and unable to adapt to low level of violence, where you still have to force someone letting you go off their grip, but without hitting them or pocking some eyes out.. that will lead you to jail.
    Sincerly, try it.. True involved Budo pratcitioners aren't bad people. they mostly seek for what Hatsumi Masaaki said : "i'm not teaching you how to fight, but how to control Evil" .
    You can find places on google, or i can make some research if you wish to.. but i'm not saying that for knowing your living area.
    Anyways, really wishing you all the best.
    The way you express yourself is very fresh an honest, so wishing you to find happiness in each area of your life.
    Have a nice day 🙂

    I always assumed Asians were Shorter, but as far the Amazons Go, you are a gem!

    I get stared a lot too in some countries here in Europe, and when I lived in Japan it was even worse - they'd even take pictures of me. Although people might be just curious because they don't see people like us that often, it can be extremely uncomfortable at times... I think "do I have something on my face? or my hair? are my clothes dirty?" 😅 in my country we know how to not make it so obvious that we're looking at someone, but I guess it's not like this everywhere lol

      Thank you Mia for sharing your experience!! I'd love to know what it is like to stare at someone or be stared at in Brazil 😀And Yes! I cannot even imagine what's like to be a "gaijin" in Japan - my experience here would be nothing compared to that 🥲That's been said, the last time I was there this summer, I noticed that there were way more visitors, especially in Tokyo. It felt like there were only foreigners in Shibuya. I think this is because the government has been putting efforts into boosting tourism and more adaptable for foreigners (such as creating more English signs, etc.) since COVID-19. So I hope you will have a different experience if you go back there next time

    Go to live to The Netherlands, there you will be safe because everybody is tall so you won't stand out.

      @@kikohirakawa ⁠yeah my dear new friend KIKO , I feel your pain and dangerous uncomfortable situation when someone harass you and stalking you, I wish I was there to protect you. I just discover your Channel on UA-cam by accident today on October 25,2023, and immediately I subscribe your channel. In my opinion France is a dangerous country . Especially Paris is a craps hole city on my book and sorry for saying that. I think you should move out of France if you can , and I think you should move back to Japan because it’s WAY much safer than any European countries for Asian women. However, that may not be possible for you to move back home to your beautiful mother land Japan at this moment in time because due to lack of opportunity for your career field. So, the next best opinion which I do agree with another person on here suggestion is to move to Netherlands because it is much safer than France and the people there are mostly tall.
      My name is danny, and I am Asian - Chinese Vietnamese American living in California, and I hope I can be your good friend if possible Kiko 😃😃👍👍. Personally, I don’t mind to hang around with tall people and I am confident and secure, and I don’t discriminate height, gender, or race. I will follow your Instagram. Please take care yourself and be safe out there in the mean time. God bless you Kiko 😃😃👍👍💕🌷
