I’ve never been good at driving.🙄🚗 Back in Tokyo, I went everywhere by subway or on foot. But here in Texas, it’s a car-based world… and there’s almost nowhere you can walk to. I have to drive for my family, so I’m slowly trying to overcome this weakness. It’s not easy, but I’m doing my best. Do you like driving? People who say “It’s easy!” will never understand… It can be really nerve-wracking for me. Whenever I go somewhere new, I always study the route on Google Maps before I leave.🤭✨ — Living abroad/ Japanese in USA/ Japanese family in America/ Japanese family/ family living abroad/ raising children in a foreign country/ living abroad/ 海外帯同家族/ テキサス帯同家族/ アメリカ帯同家族 /海外生活/海外子育て/アメリカ暮らし/ 帯同家族 / Japanese language study / アメリカ子連れ /ヒューストン在住日本人 /ヒューストン子連れ/ ヒューストン/ テキサス在住

Making friends at 33, in a brand-new city. Let me share how it’s been going!😚 At first, I noticed that there weren’t many people walking around the city, and this areas didn’t feel very safe. So I started looking for places where I could meet people in a comfortable, safe way. Ideally, I wanted to join an English class, but free ones were hard to find— so I decided to start with a gym instead 😆 It was actually cheaper than most English classes and easy to cancel anytime 😂 Later, I started asking people I met at events about communities I could join. As I did that, I got more and more useful information, and finally, I found a free English class too! It really feels good to meet people and have real conversations again.☺️ — Living abroad/ Japanese in USA/ Japanese family in America/ Japanese family/ family living abroad/ raising children in a foreign country/ living abroad/ 海外帯同家族/ テキサス帯同家族/ アメリカ帯同家族 /海外生活/海外子育て/アメリカ暮らし/ 帯同家族 / Japanese language study / アメリカ子連れ /ヒューストン在住日本人 /ヒューストン子連れ/ ヒューストン/ テキサス在住

I’m curious, so let me ask you a couple of questions! ✨ For native English speakers: Does “I’m fine, thank you.” sound a bit cold or unfriendly? ✨ For those who learned English from textbooks like I did: What responses did you learn to the question “How are you?” Please let me know in comment!!😁 — Living abroad/ Japanese in USA/ Japanese family in America/ Japanese family/ family living abroad/ raising children in a foreign country/ living abroad/ 海外帯同家族/ テキサス帯同家族/ アメリカ帯同家族 /海外生活/海外子育て/アメリカ暮らし/ 帯同家族 / Japanese language study / アメリカ子連れ /ヒューストン在住日本人 /ヒューストン子連れ/ ヒューストン/ テキサス在住

Day by day, time just slips by— and suddenly, October is almost over.🎃 Tokyo’s getting cold, but Texas still feels like summer. It’s strange how the seasons don’t change, yet the calendar keeps moving on. I don’t think we need to question whether each day had meaning. Making it this far—that alone means something. …………♡………… Living abroad/ Japanese in USA/ Japanese family in America/ Japanese family/ family living abroad/ raising children in a foreign country/ living abroad/ 海外帯同家族/ テキサス帯同家族/ アメリカ帯同家族 /海外生活/海外子育て/アメリカ暮らし/ 帯同家族 / Japanese language study / アメリカ子連れ /ヒューストン在住日本人 /ヒューストン子連れ/ ヒューストン/ テキサス在住

I understand how it feels to envy someone shining overseas. But I also want to understand the effort and struggles behind that shine. Now, I think I finally do.🥲 I’m a 33 year old mom from Japan living in Texas, USA. Traveling and living is totally different. During traveling, you enjoy and just see something beautiful and fun. However, living means you have work or study in the new country. You have to know more to protect yourself. There are so much things to care about. — Living abroad/ Japanese in USA/ Japanese family in America/ Japanese family/ family living abroad/ raising children in a foreign country/ living abroad/ 海外帯同家族/ テキサス帯同家族/ アメリカ帯同家族 /海外生活/海外子育て/アメリカ暮らし/ 帯同家族 / Japanese language study / アメリカ子連れ /ヒューストン在住日本人 /ヒューストン子連れ/ ヒューストン/ テキサス在住

When I lived in California before, there were so many people from outside the U.S. Everyone’s situation was kind of similar, and there were lots of little kids too, so it didn’t take long to make friends. Having friends really makes you feel at ease, you know? But it’s totally different here. I often compared things, felt down, and caught myself wishing I could go back to the past — even though I know it doesn’t make sense. This time, I feel like it’s a real challenge. And I believe I’ll be okay somehow. The past is the past. Oh, and just to be clear — I’m not trying to make friends through Instagram. I’d rather connect with people I meet in real life.😉 — Living abroad/ Japanese in USA/ Japanese family in America/ Japanese family/ family living abroad/ raising children in a foreign country/ living abroad/ 海外帯同家族/ テキサス帯同家族/ アメリカ帯同家族 /海外生活/海外子育て/アメリカ暮らし/ 帯同家族 / Japanese language study / アメリカ子連れ /ヒューストン在住日本人 /ヒューストン子連れ/ ヒューストン/ テキサス在住

A message for the one I love.😢 The world became so quiet when you lose your loved ones. All you can hear is your own crying. I lost my dog, Win. He was 15 years old. It’s been a week now. We call it “Shonanoka” – The Seventh Day After Death in Japan. In Japan, there is a Buddhist memorial service called “Shonanoka” (初七日), which takes place on the seventh day after the death. It’s believed that the soul of the deceased begins its journey to the afterlife and faces the first judgment on this day. Hope he had a good life with us. I miss him so much.

When I try to see things from a different perspective, I find myself understanding more. There’s a lot I realize that way. Sometimes it makes me feel like I just have to keep going, and other times… like it’s okay to lean on life a little.😮‍💨 We are all good at some things, and not good at something… #japaneselanguage #learningjapanese

Today’s quote in Japanese. “Accept yourself, love yourself, and keep moving forward. If you want to fly, you have to give up what weighs you down.” Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart Do you like me to tea these kind of beautiful quotes in Japanese? Or you you have any other ideas for me to read?

On the morning of our 5th day in this city, our car disappeared from the garage.😦 The three of us just stood there in shock.😦 We called the police, the insurance company, and the building security. It was actually my first time ever calling the police… and in English, too.😑 An hour later, the police called back and said the car had been towed overnight, so we could go pick it up. The police officer was nice and friendly. My husband got into the police car, but for some reason, the officer put his hands behind his back and handcuffed him.😭 (maybe that’s just their protocol?). At the storage, we had to pay $300 to get the car back. Later, when we spoke with the apartment manager, they told us our car wasn’t registered in their system yet, so it was flagged as an “outside vehicle” and got towed. But no one ever explained that system to us when we moved in!😡 Now we’re working on getting the $300 refunded.😫 So many things happening all at once… but I do feel like each experience is making us tougher.

I managed to fly from San Francisco to Tokyo for under $300 per person—unbelievable! With no fuel surcharge, it’s really affordable. Since I’ve received quite a few questions about ZIPAIR, I’ll share a bit in this video.✈︎ ZIPAIR is a subsidiary of Japan Airlines, and the planes they use are Boeing 787s, just like JAL. So I think I could definitely trust both the aircraft and the crew’s skills. I hope this helps as a reference if you’re planning a trip from the U.S. to Japan. The San Francisco–Narita flight departs in the evening and arrives in Japan at 8 p.m. local time. However, there are still no routes from the U.S. East Coast—the farthest one for now is Houston–Narita. If you have any questions, feel free to ask! Japantrip/ zipair / flight / Houston / JAL

In Japan, I ate so much that I ended up with a stomachache🤭😂 I finally got to enjoy all the things I couldn’t eat for a whole year in the U.S. Udon, sushi, yakiniku, yakitori, oden, shaved ice, yakisoba, tempura… you name it. When my stomach gave up, I actually felt a weird sense of accomplishment😂 日本では食べ過ぎて、最後はお腹を壊してしまいました😂 アメリカで一年間食べられなかったものを思う存分食べました！うどん、お寿司、焼肉、焼き鳥、おでん、かき氷、焼きそば、てんぷらまetc… お腹を壊した時、達成感まで感じました😂

Starting a new life here in Houston, but it’s been a series of little troubles 😅 The apartment is brand new, but I have no idea how to use some of the features… So I asked the office again and again. They are very nice.👍 And there was no shower curtain, so I just ordered one on Amazon—only to realize it didn’t come with hooks. I ended up using green masking tape, which totally ruined the look of the nice bathroom 😂 Oh well. By the way, have you ever actually bought a shower curtain before?

That strange feeling I had when I returned to Japan 🥺 Perhaps it was born from the comfort of being home. Or perhaps it was the quiet truth— that I never felt completely at ease in the U.S. And yet, here I am again, back in that very place. I’ll be sharing more of my summer in Japan, the little moments and memories that still linger. Have you ever had this feeling? 日本に帰ったときの不思議な感覚🥺 あれはなんだったんだろう。安心感から感じたのだろうか？アメリカはやっぱり落ち着かなかったのかな？でもそんなところにまた、戻ってきてしまった… 日本で過ごした夏休みの出来事を、これからもっとシェアしていこうと思います。

🔹News🔹 Starting next week, I’ll be leaving Japan to Houston, Texas, for another year. Surprising, right? Honestly, I’m the most surprised myself.🫢 Last time in San Francisco was for my husband’s studies, and this time it’s for his training. We only found out about this recently, so every day has been a whirlwind of preparation. But for now, I still have a little more time in Japan.☺️ I want to relax with my family and friends, before setting off on this new journey again. 来週からテキサス州ヒューストンに、一年弱行ってきます。びっくりですよね？私が一番びっくりしています🫢 前回のサンフランシスコは、夫の留学のためで、今回は夫の仕事の研修のためです。このことが決まったのは実は最近なので、本当に慌ただしく準備を進めている毎日です。でも、まだ少し日本にいますので、家族と友達とゆっくりして、また旅立とうと思います☺️

Someone once asked me, “If Japan is the heaven, why move to the U.S.?” I don’t think there’s such a thing as a perfect country. Living in the U.S. has helped me rediscover the beauty of Japan, and I still love Japan deeply. But I also know its stress with living there— so I wouldn’t call it “the best.” And that’s okay. Every place has its pros and cons. What matters is how you choose to see it. 「日本は最高なのに、なんでアメリカにいくの？」とフォロワーさんから聞かれたことがある。最高な国なんて、ないと思う。もちろん、今回のアメリカ生活を経て、日本の良さは再発見できたし、私は変わらず日本が大好き。でも同時に日本で生きる時のストレスもよく知っているから、最高だとは思わない。いいんですよ、これはこれで。その一長一短を理解したうえで、あとは自分がどう考えるか次第だと思う。 Do you think there is a perfect country?🤭

It’s only been a year, but moving from my familiar life in Japan to the US really changed the way I think. I think I’ve been living more freely than I did back in Japan. Sure, there were plenty of worries — like the language barrier and safety. But once I realized no one really cared what I was doing and stopped expecting too much from services, it actually felt kind of nice. I’ve also gotten way more shameless about speaking up. 😆 たった一年だけど、住み慣れた日本を離れてアメリカで暮らすようになってから、自分の考え方にいろいろ新しい変化が生まれました。日本にいた頃と比べて、少し気楽に生きられた気がします。もちろん、言葉の壁や治安など不安なこともたくさんありましたが、「誰も私のことなんて気にしていないんだ」と気づき、サービスなどにも過度な期待をしないでいると、それはそれで心地よかったです。そして、図々しくもいろんなことを言えるようになりました😆

This week marks the end of my English class, and next week will be my child’s last day at daycare — it’s finally time to return home.🥹 I used to study every morning at the community college library and always said Hello to the librarian there. I loved her warm smile. She also remembered me well, and when I told her I was going back to my country, she came out from behind the counter and gave me a hug, along with kind, heartfelt words. Saying goodbye this week will be hard… But that’s what moving means — because there are goodbyes, we learn to truly cherish our connections. ついに今週で英語クラスも終わりを迎え、来週には子供の保育園も最終日を迎えて、いよいよ帰国へのカウントダウンが始まりました。コミュニティカレッジの図書室で、毎朝勉強していたので、毎朝素敵な笑顔で挨拶してくれる司書さんがいます。その人とあまり会話したことはないのに、私のことをよく覚えてくれていて、今日は最終日だと伝えると、カウンターから抜け出してきて、私をハグしてくれました。暖かい言葉もたくさん。🥲 本当にこれから一週間の別れがつらいですね… でも引っ越すというのはそういうことですよね。別れがあるからこそ、つながりを大切にしないと… #poeticreels #japanesewithme #mindfulmoments #healingvideos #learnjapanese #japaneselanguage #japaneselistening

Sometimes I feel a little envious of people who live freely, doing only what they love. Can anybody relate to this feeling? We can fool others, but we can’t fool our own hearts. Maybe following your heart is the hardest thing of all. 他人の目はごまかせても、自分の心はごまかせない。心の赴くままに生きるって、実は一番難しいのかもしれないね🥺 #poeticreels #japanesewithme #mindfulmoments #healingvideos #learnjapanese #japaneselanguage #japaneselistening

I meet so many people, and with each encounter, I catch a glimpse of different emotions. Sometimes, it made me realize something. But I know—that’s only the surface. What lives inside each heart is far deeper, more than we can ever see or understand. It’s not just me. It’s not just you. Everyone is carrying something. いろんな人にあって、いろんな思いに触れて、はっと気づくことが多い...。でもそれもほんの一部で、心の中にある思いはきっと計り知れない。自分だけではなく、みんないろいろあるよね🥺 #poeticreels #japanesewithme #mindfulmoments #healingvideos #learnjapanese #japaneselanguage #japaneselistening
