    Hi! My name is Loretta, a girl from the U.S. who moved to Japan! I moved to Japan on the MEXT scholarship and recently graduated with my MBA. Here are some answers to common questions:
    1. Do I Speak Japanese? Yep! I was taught formally in High School and have been speaking now for over 15 years.
    2. What University did you go to in Japan? I'm a recent grad of Yokohama National University's "Masters of Business Administration" Program
    3. How old are you?: Year of the dragon. :D The math is up to you.
    4. How did you get into Japanese school?: tinyurl.com/yb8yylch
    5. What camera equipment do you use?: I film my videos with a Canon 60D using a 30mm Sigma Art Lens and I edit with Sony Vegas Pro 10 (with some help from photoshop). Additional cameras include GoPro Hero 7 Black and DJI Majic Air

I plan on doing the JET program after I get my graduate degree but I want to stay in Japan long term so knowing the process and a convenient way for me, a foreigner, to get what I need is great. This will be valuable in the near future. I look forward to the next video.

    These videos are making me want to move again! I loved looking for my apartment in Tokyo, but as a foreigner the experience could've been a lot smoother. My last realtor made me listen to him talk to landlords for on the phone, so I got to hear in real time that I was rejected for being a foreigner! 😬😬 It wasn't fun hearing that up to 20 times.

  • @avemariahackett9405
    @avemariahackett9405 4 роки тому

    Such a tough decision! They're both quite nice and well located. The first one is really nice because of the entry, mini patio and slightly larger size. This video's second apartment just edges out the first one because of its location and the fact that it has more windows. Lots of lovely space and height (especially for Boomer). So looking forward to the next video. This must be so difficult for the both of you. Good luck!

    Hi Loretta! This video is immensely useful thank you so much! I’ve just moved to Tokyo and I’m on the hunt for a pet friendly apartment for me and my dog who will fly over in a few months time! I wanted to ask how you find having a dog in Tokyo? Walking him? Collecting poop? Disposal of said poop, transportation and travel, places they’re allowed etc cause my initial impression is that the city isn’t very dog friendly.... thank you! Any advice would be A Maze ing 💘

    • @kemushichan
      @kemushichan  4 роки тому +3

      Thanks for the great questions!
      For us, when we first arrived we registered our pet at the ward office. They should hand out a few informational packets about what to do with poop bags, what happens if they get lost, even as much as what to do in emergencies or end of life care, etc. Its a good idea to ask per ward but Japanese style is train your dog to be an inside dog, BUT if they are an outside dog to always keep a water bottle and poop bags on walks. Any poop should be picked up and flushed before throwing out the bag seperately per your ward, or as they said, just through the whole bag in burnables . No matter which they do (especially if they urinate on the street or property) you should pour water on it with your water bottle.
      We always check before riding new lines, but trains usually are that subways are free as long as you use a carrier, and JR youre supposed to buy ¥150 pet ticket at the station window.

      @indigo_died6910 4 роки тому

      Yes, they're pretty much always more expensive.
      Either you can get a realtor that specializes in finding apartments that will accept foreigners. They will charge a higher one off realtor fee.
      Or there are specific agencies which only deal with foreigners. Their ads will all be in English usually. These places charge a premium for rent prices AND realtor fee

    • @kemushichan
      @kemushichan  4 роки тому +3

      Certainly not uncommon! Also, we're looking at pet friendly apartments, literally in the middle of Tokyo. This will naturally drive up the price.
