  • 5. My Honest Take on Working in Japan

    In this episode, I share my honest take on what it’s really like to work in Japan —
    not the textbook version, but the everyday things you only notice when you’re actually there.
    From the “no one asks questions in meetings” culture to the stability many people love,
    I talk through both the good parts and the awkward parts of Japanese work life.
    This is just my experience, not the whole country — so take it as a chill, personal story.

  • 4. My Roots in Fukuoka: A Little Hometown Chat

    In this episode, I talk about where I grew up — from being born in Fukuoka City to moving to the quiet countryside of Itoshima.
    I share childhood memories, the difference between city and rural life, and why I’m grateful for those experiences now.
    If you’ve been to Itoshima or want to share something about your own hometown, I’d love to hear it.

  • 3. My Life in Short Hair: The 90% Story

    Today I’m chatting about my 90% short-hair life — the sports days, the easy care, and the truth about why long hair and I don’t get along.

    I also tell the story of growing my hair for my coming-of-age ceremony… and how the photo-shoot hairstyle turned out totally not my vibe.

    How did that happen?
    In this episode, I talk about the small changes that turned into a new routine,
    my life after changing jobs, and why early mornings aren’t as bad as they sound.
