I haven't had any fun lately, 😭 so it was fun. You bring me joy!❤🙂I love the kind and generous heartwarming atmosphere that you create, your kind, easygoing, warm vibe. ❤
Hi Lisa! Loving your content! I am a fellow Singaporean going to work in Japan soon for the first time this year too! By the way would love to hear from you about your views living alone in japan.. we have always been living with our family since young in Singapore so what are some of the good points and challenges that you have faced? Lets gambatte together! ^^
@@WanderandWonder-l6g Hi!! Can’t wait for you to start your life here 😆 You will miss Singapore food really badly so pack your rations hahaha It was really daunting at the start, suddenly living alone, having to do all the chores by myself (wash the dishes, do the laundry, clean the house…) and coming home after a long day of work to an empty house… The freedom is great and all but calling your friends and family frequently will help with the homesickness! + making friends here, super important so you don’t get too lonely!! And I think thinking of meals to cook everyday is also a bit of a hassle, you have to make sure you eat enough fruits and veggies~ I know I’m guilty of not eating healthy enough 🤣 Oh and something I’m still not used to up til today - Singapore is so convenient, you can just PayNow/PayLah your friends, can just withdraw money at any ATM at any time, so easy to get from one place to another by bus/train… If you live in a rural place, it will be so troublesome (and costly) to do anything 😭 I’ll make a more in-depth video if I have time but if you have any specific questions, ask away ☺️
@LisaLostInJapan thankewww for replying !! 💗💗💗 hahaha I’m probably gonna pack some Tomyum cup noodles and milo 🤣! OMGG YAS !! the household chores will probably be something that I’m not used to HAHAHA ! In Singapore we have the luxury of throwing everything in one rubbish bin but in Japan , I heard that households have to separate our rubbish and it only gets collected on certain days (?) If so how do you cope with the smell? or where do you store it ? Also if you cook, would the smell be strong (assuming that Japanese apartments are usually quite small).. I also heard from some of my friends living in Japan that the internet connection is very slow hahaha !
@ omg I’m so happy to be able to talk to someone who can relate HAHA Btw they do sell Milo but it’s abit ex! And I don’t know if the taste is the same or not haha also drink all the choco milk/flavoured yakult before you come because they don’t have those here 🥲 and good bbt stores are hard to find 😭 YES so where I live, there’s separate rubbish bags you have to BUY to throw out burnable, non-burnable, and recyclable rubbish. Here, burnables can be thrown twice a week, and non-burnables (metal) and recyclables (plastic bottles) only ONCE a week. People usually lightly rinse food stuff like cup noodle cups, meat/fish packaging, anything that might get smelly before throwing it out, the food waste will still be a bit smelly though so you’d want a small rubbish bag that gets full quickly so you can tie up and throw away on the designated days. The other two types of rubbish I keep under my bed (there’s that storage space) until it gets full and I can throw it away! Most kitchens would have that thing above the stove that sucks the smell away so I turn that on every time I cook! Yeah, the apt is really small haha but if you close the door to the bedroom, the smell will stay in the kitchen 🤣 I’m still shocked my toilet doesn’t have that tiny window at the top to ventilate like Singapore toilets do though… But they have like a switch ah to suck the smell away HAHA Ehh when I used LeoPalace wi-fi, it was pretty slow so I quit the wi-fi and just portable hotspot my phone wi-fi for everything (tho that’s also mafan lah but no money no choice 🤣) coz Rakuten got unlimited data for ~$30, I know some friends who signed up for legit home wifi coz they game but it was pretty expensive 😅
@ HAHAHA thanks for sharing!! omggg i drink bubbletea like twice a week in SG so im prolly gonna miss it bad when i move to Japan T_T I think rubbish will be an issue if i go to Japan hahaha but i will try my best to get used to it !! I will be deployed to Tokyo so fingers crossed about the waste separation as i heard it differs according to the city you are living in hahaha Also I heard that theres the issue of mold as well ? Thank You for sharing your experience about the wifi! I will most likely also get the rakuten unlimited wifi then if thats the case! :p lets gambatte together ^^ looking forward to more content by you! 💗
@ Ahh if you’re in Tokyo then it’ll be easier to find nice bbt 🤣 Yesss the mold is crazy… It WILL grow, you have to wipe the windows during winter, you have to check the underside of your futon… The mold in the bath too 😭 For wi-fi, you’ll have to check first because I chose Sakura Mobile when I first came here since they have airport pick-up so I could use the internet as soon as I reached Japan, and then I later switched to Rakuten after a few months! There’s other carriers that let you pick up your sim card at the airport too so you check it out ☺️ Sorry for the long replies btw hahaha just so excited another Singaporean is coming 🤣🤣
@@LisaLostInJapan I put all the volumes up and I can hear something now but it's a whisper. I think your mic is broken or has a lot of dust lodged in it.
Hi!! I can’t give out my personal contact details but you can leave any questions here! I’ll reply as soon as I can 😊 You can search for ALT companies in Japan and look through the websites! Popular ALT companies are Interac, Borderlink, Heart Corporation… You’ll have to read through the reviews to find the company that suits you though!
