Oh, he did very well.

Find a list of strange experiences First day conversations.

Last week, I took part in a live video chat, answering questions from viewers about life in Japan alongside my good friend Regan, who also lives in Japan as well.

And we covered a variety of topics, from learning Japanese and traveling around Japan, as well as personal experiences and stories of things with senior done along the way and as many of the questions and answers a relevant to a lot of people.

The original video has been edited and cut down from 90 minutes into this video, now I guess there are two ways to watch this video.

You could watch it the whole way through, or listen to it while you're jogging through a forest title of your house or painting your horses.

Or you could go to the description box below the video and look for the specific, topical question that you're after and find which point is in the video.

Either way, I hope this video is useful.

Thio.

It was really fun to do on there'll be a live video chat hosted on this channel on a broad Japan in February.

Have a great day.

Enjoy place for a product that I'm not even selling the unit cost.

It was just too high, you know we're on.

Yeah, I just went to McDonald's on Dhe.

Before any major event in my life, I got a McDonald's not by making muffin on duh iced coffee.

Can't wait for the questions to roll in on her.

Your weight loss is going in.

The first question I saw was from Dale Claytor.

Nice said, Gay.

Are there any gay foreign teachers in Japan?

What, your thoughts on that on Dhe?

I know quite a few up in the area where I was.

That's great people who are gay and teachers.

So it is possible on there.

Really.

Also, Look, there's nothing going on.

But it's not like it's not a bad thing in Japan, So it's not.

It's like not beauty badly.

Did they mention it to their employers?

I don't know what you're No.

Yeah, I wouldn't think a problem.

Yeah, not for you.

So if you're gay, if you're gay, Dale stunned at the holding back.

Just get your plant prompted.

Japan.

Everyone's favorite question.

What's the strangest thing you've seen in Japan on the strangest thing you've experience for May?

It's not really a thing like an actual event that I saw.

It's more than all around experience, and that is Japanese work parties.

Um, I don't know if you've ever experienced harmony.

We've experience reading, but it's quite a schizophrenic experience because the teachers at school or I work a very reserved quiet, quite serious on then at the work pies is just the opposite off that Andi, Uh, I remember like I often saw a teacher in the corridor.

The first few weeks I started and he would like, avoid mated.

He was scared of what happened to use English.

You're worried.

And then at the work pie, I was sitting down and I just felt this pant like come down on my shoulder and it's like, Oh, Japanese people are very shy.

Lonely, you know?

Uh, yeah, and they start plying me with alcohol when it was really drunk and like everyone, even if they weren't drunk, everyone just changed miraculously lose such a bizarre thing There suddenly really confident, really loud, bit wacky, all fluent in English Magically, they could just speak English like that and that really surprised me.

And then the really serious teachers were the ones who were the most craziest by some of the most stern, scary, intimidating Thio.

It was really just don't you know that we went to Karaoke E and they were just like dancing up and down on the story.

First Indian like, uh and I was just sat there like, literally what the fuck is going on?

But it was really killed on like that experience.

It never surprises me.

It always It always surprises me.

And I had that just two days ago I went to a work party that happened.

So yeah, what Japanese work wise?

You insisting the change in people?

That's more than just things like that level of change between personally.

It's pretty epic.

Yep.

But as soon as the party happens, it's sort of like it's this new set of rules that you can just even in front of the boss.

Yeah, and how they address and talk with the boss is quite different as well.

Like that relationship that dynamic completely changes its yes, really, what they can like insult.

We'll say things to the boss, and he'll just referred to get flight.

Forget it.

Just regard it along with the UK Free Pass is the boss and someone slack Milk leave when they're drunk.

I'll be like, for I had, like t o dispose of it on the entire planet.

Doesn't happen.

You know, that's quite a good Hey, bro says, where's your favorite most beautiful place in Japan that is cuter in north Japan.

Every time I drive for it, I shed tears of joy.

No, that doesn't ever happen apart for when the petrol prices go down.

Uh, yeah, Ankita, if you get the time or money or freedom, get up after the scenery is amazing.

It's very hilly, like in Japan.

Usually quite flatlands amount of those flag.

But it's quite clearly there's a lot of character on in there.

Yeah, it's just a common explain it, but it's supposed to be the most beautiful.

Perfect is in Japan, and it lives up to its name.

Big tub.

Well, I guess following on from that Kenya, Sanchez says, Where would you like to visit?

Yeah.

Okay.

Now, er in Hokkaido.

Okay.

Got it.

Yeah.

I would like to visit Alqaida.

That's like probably number one on my list.

And then after that, sir, You know, I think it's quite going to drive to Hokkaido.

It's no near.

I'm not near the new are, but it's still not near Cannery Drive under the Pacific Ocean together.

Yeah, I know you will think of a way.

Have you been to Fukuoka now?

I'm not yet.

I haven't done a lot of traveling.

I'm terrible.

It's got, like, a really good, uh, a lot of young people.

So it's very sore, active, fun city, and it's near boots on and career.

So it could be really cool place today.

So that's why probably second on my list.

It would be quite cool to even try living that.

I've thought about it.

Anything I regret, anything I regret since big in Japan, says Devon said.

Well, yeah, no having the balls to get out my own Often.

Riley's D, of course.

The first year or two when I was here, Japanese was awful, rather any Japanese.

I learned I didn't have any confidence to use, so I didn't often go out on my own.

I have two went out, but I've got my own.

Oh my God, I have a very good friend.

He's a Canadian chap.

Onda.

He goes out like, four days a week for himself, if you see.

Oh, no, But I'm on the exactly I've got friends.

Well, it's definitely not like you used to go out.

And it's like they have a Billy No mates character, you know, Big help.

And now Oh, the whole city notorious.

You could walk down the street.

Oh, hey, this is the fella I met, right?

Yeah, I know.

Steven is not Steven.

Steven goes down and he walks down the block downtown areas on.

But that's because he just he's been to every bar in town got drunk with everyone, some karaoke and his friends around and gets invited.

Closed.

Cool stuff on.

Also big plus his Japanese Really good as well, or his confidence and ability to speak Japanese is like pretty good.

So I guess I should try and do, Uh, yeah.

I don't think the Japanese has to be good.

I mean, the people that I've met out So Japanese people coming to hang out with us and not the people that couldn't speak the English the best they're like the most fun that we want to hang out with are just the ones that talk lots and have a good time.

Yeah, exactly.

And yeah, I mean, like that.

Okay, so I guess that's my regret not going out and doing what he does because it's market.

Clooney plays off.

Yeah.

Uh, Shane Omar says they are being announced.

He was the best thing on the worst thing on dhe.

I said, The best thing is you're treated really well as my ot generally across the board most out easy treat.

Really well, you have a problem is dealt with quite swiftly on DA.

It's quite comfortable.

Lifestyle everything's taken care off This apartment is government subsidized, so I get a lot of comments saying, Wow, how's your rent?

So cheap?

Government subsidy on da Yeah, so it's quite comfortable life and the salary isn't bad.

Ah, the only downside is your salaries in game on DA.

If you're from the UK or America or anywhere that's not Japan, your salary will have gone down a tongue in the last two years.

Dip it in perspective.

My salary in pound terms has gone from £30,000 to that £20,000 in two years, which is a ridiculous amount.

Money.

When I think about pounds and when I think about it, I feel like crime a lot in terms of Japanese money, terms of yet it's actually quite good.

You can live a comfortable lifestyle, huh?

But the bad thing?

I guess it's the timeframe.

That sense of you're just some sort of disposable tool that's there for 3 to 5 years on.

Then after that, it's kind of like now go, you're done with it and everyone's like we're gonna do after Japan.

What you gonna do like two people that wanna stay in Japan.

It can feel a bit like you can feel a bit up, can I?

Can I stay now?

State.

Now you've done.

You have no purpose now.

But of course, I guess great.

There's still a great deal of people that I know her loyalties do stay in Japan on dhe, going to do other things.

A lot people I know ended up in Tokyo is recruitment consultants.

I don't really happened.

I went on Go jin park dot com and just look down the list and there's loads of recruiting consultant jobs.

But a lot of people carried on teaching in different roles.

Different schools.

Yeah, I guess that's the bad thing is a time frame and there's no sense of progression or you can't go up on DDE like most jobs, you know, you don't really.

There's no long term plan.

It's kind of like this is it.

You have fun now go.

So it's kind of a short term think.

But other than that, I'd say is really gets I would say this job's been great.

I don't give it knowing out 10 9 out of 10.

It's a one off being 10 attempts us Okay, someone said the weight loss is what I'm really wondering about the weight loss.

There is a video coming out, probably next week on the hat.

Er, I did finish about a month ago.

Nothing on duh.

Oh, I won't spoil it.

But it did.

It did actually go quite well on Dhe.

Most of stuff I learned over that 10 week period.

I'd like integrate into my daily life now.

And I feel a lot healthier on duh, unfortunately, went to the UK for three weeks on every day.

Just a disgusting amounts of cheese.

And I just drank loads about below.

And I don't know, I thought I might put away.

On the day I came back, I met with my friends, one of my Japanese friends on DDE.

She saw me and she saw how this look of abject horror on her face.

When she saw me and he hugged me real quickly with Chris, you became a big face and I was like, What the fuck what I say to that?

Oh, great.

I'm a pig on a big face now.

Shit on.

I was like, Oh, sure.

Sorry.

Yet 12 hours later, I was in school like doing a class, and I walked in on little the students when a cruise.

You?

Yes.

I don't know.

Like you've lost weight.

And I was like, Oh, yeah, yeah.

So I don't know if I've lost weight.
