    When you’re ‘unattached’ (unmarried, no kids) living in Japan, it seems like people just assume you’re here to play for a bit and that you’re going to go back to ‘your country’ and resume a respectable life at some point. Hence the “when are you leaving?“ question.
    BUT if you start a family, join the neighborhood committee, take part in PTA etc, no one asks that anymore. Then, at least in my experience, people just accept that your here to stay. (20 years and counting!)

      Depends on the person. Obviously those who care will ask but most won’t hence you feel like it’s a common question when it’s not.
      And it popular anywhere, people usually don’t assume people move forever somewhere and most don’t understand moving to a different country isn’t any different than moving towns to most people

Look at Tokyo creative, 225,000 subs but some videos get 25,000 views, what happened to the other 200,000 subscribers? Add to that some of the 25,000 views aren't even subs so the amount of loss from subs is even higher.

    I remember going back to Canada from Japan and watching this great video, called "Smells Like Teen Spirit" by some group called Nirvana. I told my friends they should watch it and they just looked at me.

    Seriously, these two have such great chemistry and it's obvious they care for each other quite a bit, which is lovely.
