THESE VIDEOS MAKE ME WANNA STUDY HARDER TO ACHIEVE MY DREAM OF MOVING TO JAPAN!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!😭😭❤️
Aww thank YOU so much for watching 🌈✨ your passion will definitely get you there☺️🤗
Maitreya sathe your comment make me wanna too achieve my dream of moving to Japan!!!!.
WE HAVE THE SAME DREAM BESTIE
You need to let me know how that ends up going
Samee, I finally have memorized hiragana after 5-6 days. Moving onto Katakana now.
At this point I've watched so many moving into my new Tokyo apartment videos on CZcams that I'm now sure it's a CZcams sub-genre.
I agree!! HAHA
love to watch them myself too!!
Does CZcams have tags you can search videos by haha
it’s my dream to move to japan, i hope you’re enjoying lovely :))
thank you for you sweet comment ☺️ I hope you can make your dream come true!
i’m 30 secs into the first vid that i’m watching of yours and i’m already in love
Thank you!! Im glad you it 😊😊
such a nice and big studio apartment for tokyo! with the kitchen also having decent working space! i'm impressed. did you find it yourself?
It is pretty spacious for Tokyo standards indeed I think! Yes especially happy with the kitchen 🙂 I found it with the help of a housing agency!
@@ninamaku hello, I‘m moving to Tokyo Mid- June and I‘m still looking for an apt or let‘s say I‘m looking at the different options (apt, share house etc) can I ask which agency you used and what the criteria were?
Your apt is exactly what I‘m looking for. Modern, the price range is also 1000$- 1100$. Thanks for your help! Looks absolutely beautiful the apt.
@@linakirchner3189 Hello Kina ✨sorry for the late reply!
That is so exciting that you're gonna move to Japan~
The thing is that I got help from an agency that introduces apartments for employees under corporate companies. The criteria were that I have a VISA and a guarantor for example.
There are many types of agencies that you can choose from. If you have a specific neighborhood you wanna live in, then you can visit a local real estate agency, or you can also look online!
In the description of this video I put some of the websites that I used for reference so I hope that helps a bit 🤗
Thank you so much for your comment and for watching my video once again!!
@@ninamaku nooo worries :) I‘m sure you‘re busy. Thank you for the info and I‘m super exited to move to Tokyo. Will you make a video of how it was moving for you?

Thank you!!! for watching the video and even leaving a comment😊
I just want to say thank you for this video. I'm moving to Tokyo on this month, 18th (currently I'm living in Kanagawa) and this video help me a lot!!! I saw the same refrigerator (on Amazon) that you bought but I was not sure about it. After seeing it in your video, now I decide to buy it. Plus, I've learned some Japanese words that you said that I didn't know. About the Washing Machine, is it too loud? I also saw the same model on Amazon but some reviews was not good... Once again, thank you for this video!!!!
thank you so much for watching! amazing!! hope your move went all smooth✨ sorry for the late reply but the washing machine is not too loud! I think its good
Wow de youtube algorithm heeft besloten me dit 2 jaar nadat je het postte te laten zien, maar ziet er cool uit man. Ben echt envious dat je Japans, Engels en nederlands zo vloeiend kan hahaha. One day I'll one up you in Japanese, maar moet wss wat meer leren voordat die dag komt. Thanks voor de coole vid, お願いしまーす
Hoi! Dank je wel voor je reactie!! ben blij dat je de videos leuk vindt! ✨ thank you for your support 🙌 will definitely continue making videos so hope you enjoy~! 😊
Thanks for the video!! Helped me out a lot! Now I know where to go to get all my home appliances when I move to Tokyo! So thanks so much!! Just wondering, if you don't mind, around how much is your apartment? It looks new! I'd like to just estimate some prices. Also, didn't know that delivery in Japan was so quick :O
Heyy thank you again Lyn Ai ☺️ My apartment is around 1000 US dollars per month if you would convert it! It's relatively high as it's a new building I think.
Delivery is pretty quick and the service here is good! 👍
this is my dream omg, you deserve way more views & subs
aw💕 thank you for you sweet comment 🥺✨Means a lot to me
Second time ever to put the 1000th like in a youtube video. Clicked the button as soon as i saw the gundam
Hahaha thank you for liking my video😊 I always love to see comments to hear what you enjoyed in the video! Thanks!!
Looks like a nice place good for you🤓
Yayy!! Thank you for watching and your comment 🤗✨
1:36 Such a beautiful day. :D
Yes it was :D
I pay half for a 2DK here in Niigata but you have the luxury of being able to see hustle and bustle of the city. BTW the apartment looks great!
Thank you for watching🤗 hahahah wow that sounds great to have so much place! such a huge difference between Niigata and Tokyo 😂
@@ninamaku Actually I lived in Tokyo for a month. Too short! Seems like I keep moving more and more towards north of Japan. Hokkaido next?😆
Ohh cool!! Hokkaido seems to be a nice place to live as well🤗
@@ninamaku Maybe too cold for me🥶
I want to move to Japan so bad, I plan on visiting again next April for about 3 weeks.
hi😊 thank you for your comment! sounds great! hope it will be a nice opportunity to consider about moving ✨
I really loved your vlogging style although I was waiting for you to show the view from the balcony, is it pretty?
Thank you for watching and leaving a comment! I didn’t show my view because of privacy reasons, but it’s pretty!!
@@ninamaku Ahh that's understandable, thank you.
Awesome
Nice video! Is my dream to move to Tokyo, but i dont know what job i would do there. Do you have any tips or sum?
Thank you so much! 💖 how cool! It depends on your interest and what you can do~! You can speak Japanese? Or are you looking for an English speaking job? The options for a job will change based on that I think 😌
When you came to Japan for your exchange, what was your level of Japanese? And what level do you recommend me to have before i come? Also really good video!!
My level of Japanese was higher than average/close to advanced when I did my exchange! For my master exchange at Waseda University I needed to have the JLPT N1. But that was because I took content courses like sociology in Japanese.
If you’re main study purpose to go on exchange is for Japanese language, you can of course start from beginner level! Every level is fine.
Hope this information helps you☺️
@@ninamaku thank you!
Wow!! Nice video!! I also travel Vlog from japan 🇯🇵 Thanks!!
Thank you HIROKI TRAVELS! I will check out your videos ;)
nina maku Thank you so much! I’m honored!!
🙋♂️初めまして 今日偶然この動画を見ました とても楽しかったです
これからゆっくり他の動画も見ます🤗よろしくお願いいたします
I don't understand English, but is it okay to comment in Japanese?
初めまして👋動画をご覧いただきありがとうございます!他も見ていただけるとのこと、とても嬉しく思います🙏✨コメントは日本語でも英語でもどちらでも大丈夫です、お好きな方で!✨🤗
This is a very cool video. Im glad i found your page. I am saving up to do EF Gap Year there around september/october of next year. Its very expensive but I'm excited.
Do you have any tips about how to save money? (You seem to know how to handle it well)
Thank you so much for your comment 🤗That sounds great! I'm rooting for your gap year, hope you can make it true and make the best out of it 💪✨
Saving money is indeed so crucial... haha
I always put aside a certain amount every month, and during my exchange in Japan I also did part-time jobs! Makes money and it was such a good experience. sorry maybe not the most unique answer, hope this helps 😊
@@ninamaku Thank you!! I have been setting aside a few dollars every few days. I have been pretty busy with cheer and band practices but the small amount of money does add up to quite a bit after awhile.
You're answer was very good. It gave me some insight on what i should be doing, such as the setting aside some money every now and then, or the small part-time jobs!
Greetings! Long story short, my occupation allows me to work just about anywhere & I've always wanted to experience Japan while I'm young & able. I just don't know how to go about it and began getting realistic about my move as of early May. I've narrowed it down to Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto but I'm open to other cities. I'm a young professional in my 20s & I'm just trying to gather as much information so I can take the appropriate steps to make this move possible by the end of the year God willing. Also, what's the current state in the country? As far as C-19 goes. Any feedback would be highly appreciated! Tysm for reading up to here! Hope to hear from somebody out there.
Hi~~ Thank you for watching my video and leaving a comment ✨
That is great!! I'm excited for you~
Tokyo currently has an "emergency statement" which means that people are asked to don't go to far or go outside if it's not needed. Restaurants and cafes are still open but till 8pm, but big department stores are closed for now.
Hope you're journey of moving will go well !
omg je bent Nederlands!! ik wil later ook naar Japan!!!!
Ja klopt!! Ik hoop dat je ook naar Japan kan! ✨
Love the video, I noticed you said you were a transfer student. Did you have to learn japanese prior to going there or did you take an a course in english?
Thank you for watching and your comment 😊😊 really appreciate it ✨Yes I did! I mainly took courses in Japanese and only a few in English. So yes I could already speak Japanese before I went on exchange
Hi Nina, I also live in Tokyo and I’m curious what the stuff you put in the bathroom is called? The anti mold stuff? I wanna buy it hehe.
Thanks!
Ohh~~ you can buy it at almost every drugstore! It’s called ルックおふろの防カビくん煙剤 by LION (brand/メーカー)
@@ninamaku Thanks a bunch! Keep up the great content.
Had nog niks gelezen maar hoorde Nederlands en boem!! Geabonneerd 🤗
Yayy fellow dutchie~ Dank je wel voor het abonneren ☺️✨✨
Yes
🙌✨
Hello😊 can you show us next time how you study or learn japanese language or giving us some tips hpw to study japanese language
Hi thank you for your comment and suggestion😊✨ I will consider making a video about it❣️👍 I personally grew up bilingual so it’s a bit different than learning Japanese as a second language from 0. but I can definitely share my story and how I studied Japanese 😊✨🤍
omgg im planning on studying in japan next year as a second year highschool student!! Are students allowed to live by their selves in an apartment? I love these kind of videos!!
Oh that is great!! 🤗 I’m so excited for you~~! Hope everything goes well! You mean any kind of student? High school student included? I think you still need an adult to sign the contract if you want to rent an apartment...🤔
Thank you for watching & leaving a comment 🥰
@@ninamaku i see!! I'll be working part time so I can pay for the apartment, how much salary do I need so I can provide for the rent and my daily needs?
So nice and big apartment
🙌🙌yayyy thank you!
@@ninamaku where you studies? Japanese language collage or university?
@@thenukanawan I did an exchange at a Japanese university!
@@ninamaku okay thank you for reply
this life i waaaant 😄
Yayy!! Haha✨Hey thank you for watching and leaving a comment 😊✨
What's monthly rent if you feel ok to share ? Also fridge, washing machine not included right, you brought your own?
Hey the monthly rent is around 1000 US dollars and all the home appliances like fridge etc were not included 🙈 most houses in Japan are empty when you move in
Can I ask which neighborhood you moved into and what services you used to find your apartment? Looks great!
Hey Joshua thank you for your comment :) unfortunately, because of privacy reasons I cannot say the neighborhood but the service that I used for reference when finding an apartment are these online websites like【HOME'S】, 【SUUMO】, Chintai!
Thanks! No worries, totally understand the privacy thing. I'm moving there also and I like how modem your place is. I'll check those websites! Thanks again!
❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful 🥰🤗
Thank you ✨🤗❤️
What's that stuff you used in the bathroom for the mold?
Hey thank you for watching and your comment ☺️✨
It’s called ルックおふろの防カビくん煙剤 by LION (brand/メーカー)
You can buy it at almost every drugstore here in Japan!
Panda express is immediately a taehyung thing for me xD
Hahahahha I know that part from the interview 😆 so funny!
So what happens with the apartment guarantor situation when you leave your corporate employer?
Then I have to move out of the apartment and find a new place! 😉
How much is the rent? can you tell an approximate? 🌸 like between 70000 and 90000 oder 90000 and 110000...etc
Hey thank you for your comment 😊 the monthly rent is around 110000~120000yen
Hey i really wanna move to Japan when I'm done with studying and stuff but I'm wondering what Job would be best to live a good life in Japan.. I can't become an english teacher because my native language is german 🙌
Hey! Thank you so much for your comment💕🙏⭐️ oh you can still be an English teacher in Japan even if you’re not native! As long as you have an certain level✨☺️
@@ninamaku Ohhh okok thank you so much for answering 🥰🙌
@@brrb6381 No worries!! hope you can make it happen!✨wish you the best
Hi just a random question but are you from Holland? I thought you might be from Holland sinds u have a “mascha planner” and she is a Dutch beauty vlogger:)
Yes! I am~! Ik ben in Nederland geboren en opgegroeid 😊
Hahaa yess!! I always watch her CZcams videos😊✨
I love your eyes😍
thank you for watching and thank you so much for you sweet comment! ✨
Was thinking of moving to Asia when I’m of age. I am part filipino and the only one in my family who is into Asian culture any tips on moving?
Hi thank you for your comment✨that is such a great dream ❤️ and so brave🕊 preparation and some research before going is always good! Imagining your life after moving for example! There are so many blogs and vlogs on the web right now about moving🤗
Is there anything in particular that you would like to know?
@@ninamaku Would you need to know the fluent language to live there
@@jahkotime it would help a lot! Since not everybody here is able to speak or understand English. But I know people who live in Japan, without being able to speak Japanese, so it’s possible 😋
😳was echt even shook toen ik nederlands hoorde
hahaha😂 ja ik kom uit Nederland haha
Goals.
Hi~👋 thank you for watching & your comment 😊😊
Hello I am not rich but I get by. My dad can read Chinese and has lived in many countries including tokyo. I want to move to japan, and my parents have said yes but I have doubts. Will I be bullied for not having a Japanese name? How will I go to school if I can’t speak Japanese? How will I read my school time table? So many questions, and no answers. I am trying to learn Japanese but I never know what words I need
Hi thank you for watching and leaving a comment ✨
I would say, Japan is getting more international and open towards foreigners so I don't think you will get bullied! (Bullies are everywhere in the world unfortunately 🥺)
You can start by watching some videos on CZcams about the Japanese language and buy a book to learn some basic words ✨You can start low level by for example using an App like memrise/Duolingo to learn maybe?🤗
I'm rooting for you~~~ hope you pursue what you want to do ✨ thank you for sharing your story!!
May I ask how many squaremeter is your flat? Thx in advance. :)
Hi thank you for watching and leaving a comment 🤗
this apartment is around 29m2 in total
Do the apartments not come with washing machine and refrigerator?
No unfortunately all apartments in Tokyo are totally empty. People all their stuff with them and move everything 🤣
there are some furnished rental but it seems japanese people prefer to bring their own beds. uni students or businessmen would chose them. second hands ones are also available.
@@texassummer4176 true!! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge ✨
what costs more ... eating out or apartment rent 🙄❤️
Apartment rent costs more haha 🙈🙈
Which area of tokyo is this place?
Hello! Thank you for watching my video and leaving a comment!
My apologies for the late reply. I'm sorry but because of privacy reasons, I cannot tell you exactly where but I live in one of the 23 Special Wards in Tokyo! 🤗
Podia ter legenda em português né mais tudo bem
Sorry I’m not able to translate to Portuguese unfortunately 🙇♀️🥺 but if somebody is, let me know! ✨

Hello thank you for watching and leaving a comment ✨ That sounds amazing!! I'm very excited for you to make a big step and move into a different environment🤗Living on your own for the first time is a whole experience so I understand your parents are a bit worried about you! But Japan is a safe country, so I think you will be alright✨ just make sure you surround yourself by people that are nice and care about you🥰
Getting a dog sounds fun! I love akita inu and shiba inu too 🐶
Are you half Japanese?
Yes!
Disappointed to see so many people not wearing masks.
Unfortunately at this time a lot of people were not aware of how bad the virus was... this was filmed at the end of February 2020 so the virus did not really hit Japan yet.
That’s why you see very few people wearing masks. Now everyone is wearing a mask here!
