I will . I live in Arizona the Grand Canyon state and it snows up there that’s where I like to live when I retire it’s beautiful up there. I currently live in the desert and it is so hot today was 116 degrees.
Hi Marianne! Just wanna say that your vlog is one of a kind. Ive been watching vlogs like these from different channels (Daily life vlogs in Japan) and how you film and tell your story is really unique. The different angles, wide and zoomed in shots of objects, overlapping sounds, and a lot of cool filming style you can see on movies/documentaries. This compliment is becoming a bit exaggerated but I just want to say KUDOS to your efforts in making this video. Ps another thing that I think what makes it stand out is that it is not faceless and you’re also sharing Nihongo translations every now and then which is suuuuper helpful to people who loves and plans to go to Japan. I am excited and looking forward to you making more contents like this, we appreciate you! And your content!❤🎉
Awe! You made me smile. I can't believe you noticed all of that! I feel so appreciated. Thaaaank you so much! Also, I'm glad to know the Nihongo inserts are helpful. I'll add newer words next time! I've just uploaded a new video, and now after reading your comment, I became more excited to finish editing my next vlog. Your words made me feel more motivated. I'll hear from you again! Always keep safe, and sending hugs from JP! 💜✨
Not enough videos out there of “How to” or the Winter struggle in places in Japan with snow. This video caught my eye. The thumbnail picture is perfect. Thank you!
So so happy to have discovered your channel. I love Japan. Thanks for showing us your beautiful countryside. As someone who suffers from anxiety, your content is comforting.♥️
Hi, dear! I am glad this video was able to give you comfort. Know that you are not alone. I feel you, and I hope I could keep making you feel better through these simple vlogs. Warm hug. 🥹☺️✨
I rarely comment but I just have to thank you for this video. Calming but also made me think about how I could learn from you, enjoy the little things. You seem so genuine or as we say in Icelandic "gæđapappír" (e. Quality Paper) 😊 Also, I love Japan and dream of seeing it someday although doubtful it will come true, so far away and expensive! We don't get much snow, once in a while, but it does freeze and we buy buckets of salt to melt outside stairs and such. I am surprised that Japanese houses aren't more insulated. Icelandic houses are near hurricane proof to keep warm (also our summers don't get that hot and are getting colder, thanks to climate change) but we also have cheap resources for heating them, geothermal, and electricity from hydropower plants. When I lived in Denmark I realised how lucky we are in Iceland when it comes to this. But, many other things here not so good, but no place is perfect I guess 😂 Thank you again, liked and subscribed ❤ Edit to add: Thanks to Netflix I just started getting into K-drama but also chilling Japanese series. Omg!
Oh wooow! Actually, I have always wanted to visit Iceland, but I still can't for the same reason. 😅 But hey, who knows? Dreams do come true! We might be able to visit our own dream countries one day. Thank you so much for sharing about your winter life in Iceland. And you're so sweet for teaching me an Icelandic word! What Kdrama have you been watching recently? I would love to hear from you again. Keep safe always! 💜❄️✨
You're lucky in Iceland to have cheap heat! Heat is getting so expensive here in the US!. I got a kotatsu and I'm going to try to do it Japanese style next winter! I'll have to keep my house warm enough so my pipes won't freeze, but I'll only be comfortable in my kotatsu! I can't wait to try it!
i love that kind of videos especially in countryside of Japan , I really want calm live like this , I hope you make more relaxing videos like this cuz i love it 💕💕
Watching you shoveling snow takes me back to when I used to live in Minnesota. In the winter we would get that much snow and it can get extremely cold. I really do not miss getting a lot of work done just to get to work everyday.
pay attention not to burn the down part of the upper shelves with your candles! It happened to me and 1/ it ruins them 2/ it could cause a fire😮. Take good care of yourself, thank you for the videos.
I love these types of daily living vlogs. I wish you would make more like this. Even though you might think it's repetitive to make more similar to this one, its new for us who don't live your life so its so interesting to watch! Especially to those who dont live in Japan but love it 🤗❤️
I just found your channel. I am going to be in Japan, Hokkaido, to be exact, Sep-Nov and am very excited to experience what this beautiful country offers. Thank you for the wonderful virtual experience.
Yes, it's common here, too! But sometimes, I forget to do it, and I get too lazy to go out of my apartment at night, so I let them freeze under the snow (I know that's bad 🥲). I'm guilty. 😅
1st time I’ve ever seen the bed made up with the person still in it, lol. That was a beautiful ride to work, I wanted to live where it snowed often when I was young. I wouldn’t dream of it now that I’m older
I truly enjoyed this video, especially the vocabulary inserts and explanations. I learned: oyasuminasai, kotatsu, and gochisousamadeshita (which for some reason is so hard for me to memorize...but, I will)
I love reading your comment! Thank you for the appreciation. 🥹 I'm glad I could be of help to make it easier for you to memorize some of the Japanese expressions in this video. I'm sure you'll eventually memorize all of them!✨
So true...fresh fallen snow really beautiful ...on the trees, houses, even on cars. Snow shoveling is good cardio workout!😁 I had to adjust from California "winters" to where I am now...near the Canadian Border...Beautfiul video....
True! I just look at the bright side and consider I've already done my workout every time I shovel snow. Lol. Thanks for watching! Hope you enjoy my newest spring video, too! ☺️
i know im just some rando on the internet, but for some reason, coming from the place of a young person still figuring out the rest of their life, this style of video is profoundly comforting. ive made it a goal of mine to try and live in japan for a few years to see if i like it and would want to stay, but sometimes that dream feels very far away and like i'll never catch up with it. videos like these, of just normal people living their normal lives, give me solace. its a good reminder that life doesnt move as fast as i think it does, and that everybody who i admire and look up to who're flourishing adults now, probably felt the same way about life when they were my age. thank you.
I had the same dream when I was young. I joined the Navy just for the chance to go to Japan. I have been very fortunate to have lived in Japan for a year of my life. I can't express to you how much I enjoy it here. But I will say no matter how long you live here, or how much Japanese you speak. you will always be a foreigner. If you are ok with that and the isolation it will bring. then come and try to make a life for yourself.
Hi Marianne, I just found your channel, and I love it! I'm very interested in everything about Japan, especially how expats experience living there. Being Dutch, so much is different from the life I'm used to live. I really hope that you will upload more longer videos in the future. Because I can't wait to see how your life will continue. Saying "hallo" from the Netherlands🤗 🇳🇱
Hi, Ilona! "Konnichiwa" from Japan! 🇯🇵 I'm amazed this video has reached the Netherlands already. Thank you for your sweet comment. I hope you'll continue enjoying my upcoming vlogs. Hope to hear from you in my next video as well. Keep safe always. ☺️💜✨
I looks so pretty outside. I'm glad we don't get snow that often where I live, but visiting somewhere snowy would be nice. I just don't do well with cold 😅 I have a heated blanket I wrap up in during the winter.
I totally understand! Many of my Japanese friends don't like the snow actually. But they also think snowy landscapes are beautiful. And yes! Heated blankets are ftw! Mine's the only reason I survive my freezing bedroom every year lol.
Warm greetings from Spain. Loved your video, made me feel like I visited a kind hearted friend! Also appreciate all the Japanese vocabulary which I like learning. Have subscribed and look forward to watching more🌸💕🌸
Hi! The newer houses for sure have better heating system. I live in a public teacher's housing, so I don't get the luxury of having a warm house lol. But I survive and have gotten used to it! I'm just thankful I don't have to pay very expensive rent for a two-story apartment. 😆
What a relaxing video. I watched the whole video with a calm gentle smile on my face. Loved it and your song too was amazing, It was just too short to enjoy.
I'm an electronic musician. The bell chime your school uses is the Tubular Bells preset from a Yamaha DX7 synthesizer. Its also the same sound they used for the Taco Bell "gong".
I love snow also, its my chidhood dream, lucky to know that your from philippines..i enjoy watching your video..the life being alone in cold place but stilli hope to see japan..
Hello from Canada 🇨🇦 ! I'm a new subscriber - I really enjoyed this video! I find it fascinating to see how different lives are in other parts of the world. As a Canadian, I see a lot of snow (though sadly, not nearly as much as before because of climate change). Right now, we are heading into summer and have already had several days of 38°C weather! I hate summer and this one will likely be the hottest on record. I will go through your video library now (I wish you made more long ones like this!), I thank you very much for sharing and I hope your channel grows! Thank you!
The climate has always changed and continues to do so - on it's own. The only thing that can change the climate is the sun. Don't believe the hype and scare tactics.
Interesting, here in Iceland, thanks to climate change, our summers are getting colder and the winters more unpredictable. Just last month it suddenly froze, killing new born lambs and ruining crops for farmers. June should be frost free, even in Iceland 😊
Hi, Annie! I know right! The snow has lessen indeed as compared to the previous years, and this year's summer is really hot! It's rainy season in Japan right now, and I'm already melting. What more in August? 🥲 Anyways, thank you so much for enjoying the video! I hope you enjoy my newest upload, too! 🌸✨
Try this: Next time after your done Shoveling the Driveway, or Before you hear that a Snow Storm is coming SPRINKLE SALT all over Stairs and driveway and it Will Melt the Snow and keep it from Freezing (so you don't have to shovel everyday) this is what we do on America 🇺🇸. Lovely video, thank you for sharing 😁🥰.
Love love your soft quiet music. Some blast so loud u cant hear vid. I feel so fortunate to live in florida That looks sooooooo cold and depressing. Hoping u really enjoy it
@@blueskies00 Hiii! Thank you. I'm glad there are talented musicians on UA-cam that allow their works yo be featured on videos. Thanks for leaving a comment! It could be depressing sometimes, but since I love snow, winter works for me. ☺️😆 Please do watch my newest spring vlog, and let me know what you think! 🌸✨
Sundubu Jigae looks like a soup we eat for winters in Canada!! It’s called hang over soup!! 😆 Our weather seems to change every year and it’s confusing but with the soup it helps a lot.
Nice vlog!! This is relaxing! More vlogs like this please! Ganda ng house and snow!! More videos like this so we the fans know what you are doing in life haha. I miss Nagano!!
I love your home! It looks so warm and cozy. I love the country and snow is so beautiful. I have a teaching certification and I keep wanting to take that leap and teach. Oh by the way, I remember watching that Kdrama!
Lovely video. It's refreshing to see a "day in the life" piece from Japan that is real life and not some UA-cam version of Japanese life. And I love your Winnie the Pooh tiles behind your stove! I subscribed to your channel. 🙂
Hi, dear! I'm so happy to know you appreciate my content. Thank you for subscribing! Sadly though, my Winnie the Pooh splatter guard has now retired after months of use. 😅 I hope to get the same one on my next visit to Daiso. 😆
Hi from NY! I really enjoyed this video. Your car is really nice and I like the fact that you teach school. You help people learn and that is very important. Shoveling snow, that is a lot. Wow, the question that you asked is really good. Hmmm, my skincare routine is just lotion (Palmer's or Hempz) for my body. My face I use Palmer's Skin Success (Night) Cream. I like relaxing by talking with my husband, drinking a cup of coffee and watching tv or being on my computer. Wow, you do music too! Sleep well, goodnight.
Thaaaank you so much! I really appreciate your answers to my questions! I think it's really sweet that you find comfort talking with your husband. Hope to hear again from you in my next video! 💜✨
Marianne, your video is lovely. I miss the snow so much. My origin is from Rimouski, Quebec, Canada. As a child, the snow could sometimes be as thick as the height of the door on the house LOL. So if the door opened toward outside, oops, couldn’t get out. So the shoveling for some could be a narrow passageway as high as the adults. We went sliding on a piece of cardboard down the snowy small hills. It was always my favourite season. It smells so clean and looks bright and happy. You’re right about shoveling the snow right after it comes cuz it’s lighter usually. And my skincare is actually a cleansing foam made in Korea. I visited Korea 3x and just loved it. Watching k drama almost daily. My most recent fav is: King the Land. I’m embarrassed to say how many x I watched the whole series. And I don’t know the one you are watching. My mother tongue is French, maybe you figured it out, being from Quebec. Bravo young lady from Philippines, teaching English in Japan and liking Korean food and drama. Obviously you like Japanese food and life as well. I’d love to live in this village too. I’m old enough to be your grandmother. My daughter in law gave me a necklace which says: 랗머니 after my 1st grandson was born. I wear it daily. Stay well.
Merci! 🙏 I really enjoyed reading your comment. I could imagine how fun it must have been for you as a child! I would love a walkway with snow walls as high as that! Mine is only around knee area lol. 😆☺️ Ten years ago when I first came to Japan, the snow here was a lot (it was also hard to open my door after a snowy night lol). Sadly in the past years, they have lessened. 🥲 It's interesting to learn we have similarities with our interest in Kdramas! I recommend you to watch a drama I've watched recently. It's 'Lovely Runner'. Really good. And oh, would you mind if I ask if your daughter in law is Korean? I was just wondering because of the necklace you got. ☺️ I'm really happy to chat with you here. I feel like talking to a friend and a grandmother! I hope to hear from you again. 🤗🌸✨
When i use to shoval, i would turn my car on to defrost. So by the time i get to it, it warm and the snow it easier to get off. Then when i come back out its still kind of earm and ready to go.
Yup! I do that too whenever I'm already prepared to leave right after clearing the snow. During this time though, I didn't do it as I thought it's a waste of gas to turn on the engine since I knew I was going to spend time shoveling. 😆😅
I love your cat socks. It is surprising how much snow you get there. When I looked up where you are, I expected it to be in the Northern part of Japan.
Hi! Thank you so much! You can get really cute socks at Daiso. ☺️ Nagano gets a lot of snowfall too apart from Hokkaido and the Tohoku region, and the northern part, where I live, gets the most snowfall in the prefecture. ☺️
Next time, put in the enoki mushrooms first then the the seafood last since they become rubbery when cooked for long, esp. the shrimps😩 but your dish looks so delicious🫶

Even though it's snowing and cold you make it feel warm and cozy
I'm glad you find it that way. Thaaank youuuu! 💜✨
indeed 😍🥰
It is so nice to read someone say, “I love snow”
All my life I miss it and only hear people say negative things.
Hii! Thanks! Why not move somewhere snowy if given the chance? 😊❄️
I will . I live in Arizona the Grand Canyon state and it snows up there that’s where I like to live when I retire it’s beautiful up there. I currently live in the desert and it is so hot today was 116 degrees.
Ive never seen snow in my life D: I really want to tho, my life goal is to make a snowball and throw it at someone and then I can die in peace. xD
Hi Marianne! Just wanna say that your vlog is one of a kind. Ive been watching vlogs like these from different channels (Daily life vlogs in Japan) and how you film and tell your story is really unique. The different angles, wide and zoomed in shots of objects, overlapping sounds, and a lot of cool filming style you can see on movies/documentaries. This compliment is becoming a bit exaggerated but I just want to say KUDOS to your efforts in making this video. Ps another thing that I think what makes it stand out is that it is not faceless and you’re also sharing Nihongo translations every now and then which is suuuuper helpful to people who loves and plans to go to Japan. I am excited and looking forward to you making more contents like this, we appreciate you! And your content!❤🎉
Awe! You made me smile. I can't believe you noticed all of that! I feel so appreciated. Thaaaank you so much! Also, I'm glad to know the Nihongo inserts are helpful. I'll add newer words next time!

I rarely comment but I just have to thank you for this video. Calming but also made me think about how I could learn from you, enjoy the little things. You seem so genuine or as we say in Icelandic "gæđapappír" (e. Quality Paper) 😊 Also, I love Japan and dream of seeing it someday although doubtful it will come true, so far away and expensive! We don't get much snow, once in a while, but it does freeze and we buy buckets of salt to melt outside stairs and such. I am surprised that Japanese houses aren't more insulated. Icelandic houses are near hurricane proof to keep warm (also our summers don't get that hot and are getting colder, thanks to climate change) but we also have cheap resources for heating them, geothermal, and electricity from hydropower plants.

Thank you! I would love to share more of my cooking and daily life with you all, so I hope to hear from you again next time! Keep safe always. 💜✨

Watching you shoveling snow takes me back to when I used to live in Minnesota. In the winter we would get that much snow and it can get extremely cold. I really do not miss getting a lot of work done just to get to work everyday.
Holy crap. I shivered at the sight of that snow. Canada isn't snowy every day, so it's kinda nice to have hot weather also.
@@syst3mwolf Summer could be very hot and humid in Japan, so I guess it balances out the cold in summer. Lol.
@@MarianneTopacioTV Here too. Canada is weird with weather.
Such a peaceful video. Thanks for sharing.
You're most welcome! Thank you as well! Hope you find my new uploads calming, too. ☺️
I want this weather back so bad. I hate summer. Can't wait for Autumn and Winter to come back and hopefully stay for a long long time.
Sameee! I miss winter already. 🥹

@@imrizky8412 True! ☺️
Hello from Canada 🇨🇦 ! I'm a new subscriber - I really enjoyed this video! I find it fascinating to see how different lives are in other parts of the world. As a Canadian, I see a lot of snow (though sadly, not nearly as much as before because of climate change). Right now, we are heading into summer and have already had several days of 38°C weather! I hate summer and this one will likely be the hottest on record. I will go through your video library now (I wish you made more long ones like this!), I thank you very much for sharing and I hope your channel grows! Thank you!
The climate has always changed and continues to do so - on it's own.
The only thing that can change the climate is the sun.
Don't believe the hype and scare tactics.
Interesting, here in Iceland, thanks to climate change, our summers are getting colder and the winters more unpredictable. Just last month it suddenly froze, killing new born lambs and ruining crops for farmers. June should be frost free, even in Iceland 😊
Hi, Annie! I know right! The snow has lessen indeed as compared to the previous years, and this year's summer is really hot! It's rainy season in Japan right now, and I'm already melting. What more in August? 🥲 Anyways, thank you so much for enjoying the video! I hope you enjoy my newest upload, too! 🌸✨
Try this:
Next time after your done Shoveling the Driveway,
or Before you hear that a Snow Storm is coming SPRINKLE SALT all over Stairs and driveway and it Will Melt the Snow and keep it from Freezing (so you don't have to shovel everyday) this is what we do on America 🇺🇸.
Lovely video, thank you for sharing 😁🥰.
Hiiii! That's a good tip! I've heard that a lot from other foreigners here, but I've never really tried it. Lol. I'll give it a try next winter!
So happy I found your channel! Hello from Australia
Yaaay thank youuuu! Sending hugs from JP! 💜✨
I enjoyed watching your video , it was calm and cosy
@@amalnabud7678 Thaaaank youu! I hope you'll enjoy my newest vlog, too. ☺️
Love love your soft quiet music.
Some blast so loud u cant hear vid.
I feel so fortunate to live in florida
That looks sooooooo cold and depressing.
Hoping u really enjoy it
@@blueskies00 Hiii! Thank you. I'm glad there are talented musicians on UA-cam that allow their works yo be featured on videos. Thanks for leaving a comment! It could be depressing sometimes, but since I love snow, winter works for me. ☺️😆 Please do watch my newest spring vlog, and let me know what you think! 🌸✨
Omg I love your routine it's so calming thanks for this video, I hope one day I can live in Japan, thank you!
You're most welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed watching. I hope you'd enjoy my spring vlog, too. ☺️
Lovely gentle video which I love, thank you.
Goodnight God Bless sleep well xx Jean from Scotland.
Liked and subscribed to all.
I would love to visit Scotland one day! 🤩 Thank you sooo much for liking and subscribing. Have a good night. Sending hugs from Japan! ☺️✨
Sundubu Jigae looks like a soup we eat for winters in Canada!! It’s called hang over soup!! 😆 Our weather seems to change every year and it’s confusing but with the soup it helps a lot.
Nice vlog!! This is relaxing! More vlogs like this please! Ganda ng house and snow!! More videos like this so we the fans know what you are doing in life haha. I miss Nagano!!
Thank you, Vinar! Come visit again with your wife. :)
I love your home! It looks so warm and cozy. I love the country and snow is so beautiful. I have a teaching certification and I keep wanting to take that leap and teach. Oh by the way, I remember watching that Kdrama!
Thank you! I hope you can make your teaching dream come true! Would you like to teach in Japan, too? ☺️
I live in Vermont, United States. We get a ton of snow every year. Like you, I love the snow but hate shoveling!
I know right! It's sad though coz it seems like there's less and less snow every year. 🥲
Thank you for posting. I add a quail egg just after putting the soup in the bowl.
Oh that's interesting! Eggs could really be a good match with sundubu-jigae. :)
Lovely video. It's refreshing to see a "day in the life" piece from Japan that is real life and not some UA-cam version of Japanese life. And I love your Winnie the Pooh tiles behind your stove! I subscribed to your channel. 🙂
Hi, dear! I'm so happy to know you appreciate my content. Thank you for subscribing! Sadly though, my Winnie the Pooh splatter guard has now retired after months of use. 😅 I hope to get the same one on my next visit to Daiso. 😆
Really love the vlog, please keep do this 🙌🏻.
Thank you! Will do! 💜✨
Nice video, I have never seen a picture of Japan with snow ❤
Hiii! Thaaank youuuu! ✨
Hi from NY! I really enjoyed this video. Your car is really nice and I like the fact that you teach school. You help people learn and that is very important. Shoveling snow, that is a lot. Wow, the question that you asked is really good. Hmmm, my skincare routine is just lotion (Palmer's or Hempz) for my body. My face I use Palmer's Skin Success (Night) Cream. I like relaxing by talking with my husband, drinking a cup of coffee and watching tv or being on my computer. Wow, you do music too! Sleep well, goodnight.
Thaaaank you so much! I really appreciate your answers to my questions! I think it's really sweet that you find comfort talking with your husband. Hope to hear again from you in my next video! 💜✨
I love the way you edit this video, plus the background music!
Thank you so much! Really glad you liked it! Hope you'd enjoy my spring vlog, too. 🌸✨
@@MarianneTopacioTV I'll check it out for sure :)
What a lovely channel, I’m so pleased to have found it. Best wishes from the UK.
Thank you so muchhh! I hope you'll also enjoy my newest spring video. Hope to hear from you again. ☺️🌸✨
i absolutely loved this vlog 🤩
So glad! Thank you, dear! 💜✨
Just discovered your channel! So happy I came across it!
Hi, dear! Welcome aboard! Thank you for watching. ☺️✨
Marianne, your video is lovely. I miss the snow so much. My origin is from Rimouski, Quebec, Canada. As a child, the snow could sometimes be as thick as the height of the door on the house LOL. So if the door opened toward outside, oops, couldn’t get out. So the shoveling for some could be a narrow passageway as high as the adults. We went sliding on a piece of cardboard down the snowy small hills. It was always my favourite season. It smells so clean and looks bright and happy. You’re right about shoveling the snow right after it comes cuz it’s lighter usually. And my skincare is actually a cleansing foam made in Korea. I visited Korea 3x and just loved it. Watching k drama almost daily. My most recent fav is: King the Land. I’m embarrassed to say how many x I watched the whole series. And I don’t know the one you are watching. My mother tongue is French, maybe you figured it out, being from Quebec. Bravo young lady from Philippines, teaching English in Japan and liking Korean food and drama. Obviously you like Japanese food and life as well. I’d love to live in this village too. I’m old enough to be your grandmother. My daughter in law gave me a necklace which says: 랗머니 after my 1st grandson was born. I wear it daily. Stay well.
Merci! 🙏 I really enjoyed reading your comment. I could imagine how fun it must have been for you as a child! I would love a walkway with snow walls as high as that! Mine is only around knee area lol. 😆☺️ Ten years ago when I first came to Japan, the snow here was a lot (it was also hard to open my door after a snowy night lol). Sadly in the past years, they have lessened. 🥲
It's interesting to learn we have similarities with our interest in Kdramas! I recommend you to watch a drama I've watched recently. It's 'Lovely Runner'. Really good.
And oh, would you mind if I ask if your daughter in law is Korean? I was just wondering because of the necklace you got. ☺️
I'm really happy to chat with you here. I feel like talking to a friend and a grandmother! I hope to hear from you again. 🤗🌸✨
Wow! Na inspire ako! ❤
Yieee thank you, dzae!! Gawa ka na rin 💜

Hi Marianne! I am a Japanese Marianne too! I love your content!
Awee! I'm glad to have met another Marianne! Nice to meet you here. Thanks for watching, and I hope you'll enjoy my newest video, too. ☺️✨
In America it is called a heating blanket thank you for the video😊
You're most welcome! Thank you for watching, too! ☺️
When i use to shoval, i would turn my car on to defrost. So by the time i get to it, it warm and the snow it easier to get off. Then when i come back out its still kind of earm and ready to go.
Yup! I do that too whenever I'm already prepared to leave right after clearing the snow. During this time though, I didn't do it as I thought it's a waste of gas to turn on the engine since I knew I was going to spend time shoveling. 😆😅
I love your cat socks. It is surprising how much snow you get there. When I looked up where you are, I expected it to be in the Northern part of Japan.
Hi! Thank you so much! You can get really cute socks at Daiso. ☺️
Nagano gets a lot of snowfall too apart from Hokkaido and the Tohoku region, and the northern part, where I live, gets the most snowfall in the prefecture. ☺️
What a lovely video! And your voice is sublime. I hope your post more vlogs
You're so sweet! Thank you so much! I'm already editing a new vlog, so please stay tuned! ☺️✨
@@MarianneTopacioTV will do :>

Thank you po, Mader! Pagluto kita nun pagbalik mo dito hehehe. Labyuuu. 💜
Next time, put in the enoki mushrooms first then the the seafood last since they become rubbery when cooked for long, esp. the shrimps😩 but your dish looks so delicious🫶
I appreciate the tip! Thank youuu! ☺️✨
Agree, you may have overcooked the seafood
