Buying bread from a man in Brussels
He was 6 foot 4 and full of muscles
I said do you speak my language?
He just smiled and gave me a Vegemite sandwich..

It's amazing how watching an individual's daily life can make me realise that there is nothing ordinary and the fact is that we all live extraordinary lives.
Thank you again for sharing your day with us. 🙏🐈🌻

Your videos are really impressive for such a young channel great video and audio quality, nicely paced editing topped off with great content. Thank you

As a fellow 50yo Aussie who has been dreaming of moving to Japan, you are truly inspirational. I share your videos with my elderly mum so that she can see how my dream life could be!
Thank you SO so much for sharing your journey. ❤

Enjoying your videos😊Actually envious. When I moved to Japan in 1993, there was no internet and no cell phones. Lots of letters and expensive long distance calls😅 Keep up the great content! Aloha from Yokohama🤙🏽

I love how Millie helps you with your clothes in the morning. No doubt she also helps make the bed. (she is a gorgeous fluffy thing).

I’m a Japanese in Scotland. Seeing doctors and proscribed meds are free but I can’t see specialists including Ophthalmologists straight away. I’m currently on waiting list for my eye surgery. You need to pay but you can see doctors whenever you want in Japan. Hope you will get better soon. Take care.

Oh Millie is so cute! I love when she is on the videos!😍

I lived in Japan for 6 years, but Vegemite has always been an indispensable addition to my breakfast sandwiches, like for typical Australians, btw, love your video☺️

I lived in east Hokkaido working as a teacher in my 20's (now in my 30's) in a very rural area (less than 10, 000 people, closest McDonalds was an hour away) and the slower pace is very true. Whenever I went to a bigger city (even Sapporo!) I was reminded that time in the countryside felt different. I miss the way the air felt and smelled in the late spring and going to Daiso to kill time. Thanks for so vividly bringing me back - I don't think I've watched a video that reminded me so much of what Japan felt like for me. Sorry for the ramble!

Thank you for your video. Milly is so gorgeous 😍🥰. No matter how good or bad your day has been, she's definitely worth coming home to 🐾😻😺

I just turned 31 and I always thought I'm too old to move to Japan (or anywhere else) and live there. I thought I should be in my 20s to be able to do so. But watching your videos givesme the hope and reminds me that age is just number! ❤

What an interesting insight into your life. Thank you. My 27 year old son is on the JET programme in Yabu and loving his first year in Japan. He’s not a qualified teacher ( working as a assistant language teacher) but I’m hoping he will be motivated to get his qualification as a teacher later. Thank you for helping me see a little more of what life is like in Japan. We are coming to visit him in July.

Have a wonderful weekend. God Bless!

I love that Milly is helping you with brushing the lint off your clothes.

I’m from Australia too and looking to do all of this. I’m so happy to see another Aussie there ❤

I'm really enjoying your videos so far. I need to go back through your collection and watch them all!
