I've been a little worried about my seeming lack of progress in my Japanese lessons, because it's hard to learn new stuff every day. But I was a bit shocked that I actually understood most of your Japanese conversations. Thanks for the small boost of confidence!
That older guy was so nice π He bought so much!
"Yeah, I'll drink a lot of water" you say, with a Red Bull in your hand. π
I love the humanity in the videos. It is so heartwarming to see people getting along and enjoying chance interactions between strangers.
The variety of interactions are truly special. Everyone was so friendly to you and your friend once you started a conversation with them. They were blown away especially that older gentleman repaying the favor going to the konbini! I love to see all the precious memories made such as these. π
It's always a fun day out with Oriental Pearl! This video was so much fun!
I love watching you interact with people, and the people you chat with are so welcoming and at ease with you, it is so uplifting to see everyone enjoy your company and it renews my faith in mankind, keep doing what you do Oriental Pearl, looking forward to your next video β€
What I love about Oriental Pearl is that she's actually having dynamic conversations with people out in the open instead of just surprising servers at restaurants by ordering in their language. Not to say she hasn't done it, but she also gives us so much more, and I love how she switches languages on the spot.
I always make it to the end Oriental Pearl. I love all the interactions with the people. Their surprise, the looks of joy from seeing you speak their language. I feel it makes them truly happy and honored to know you care enough to learn it. You make each one of them feel special. What a kind expression of love from you to them. Til next time safe travels and much happiness to you and Tommy. πππ Peace and Love
Itβs so moving how the removal of the language barrier allows you to connect with people, it gives everyone a lift just wonderful β€
I always enjoy watching you interact with the locals and seeing their surprise at how well you converse. Please continue with these kinds of videos. Thank you. π
I love how your channel has grown, I was following you when you only had a few subscribers and were trying to find ways to drive views. What a great success.
I see many fake ones saying one line for views. You speak the whole language so good, you're real.
The last interaction was my favorite! The shared laughs and jokes throughout felt so warm. I was just 23 when I arrived in Iwakuni from the southern US, naive but deeply curious and respectful. Your videos bring up the best nostalgia feelings. π₯Ήπ
I can't even fathom the difficulty level of an American woman becoming fluent in both Mandarin and Japanese. Truly stunning.
You meet some of the sweetest people β€ I love how you are so open and share and they return the kindnessβ€
This video warms the heart and makes you smile. You met so many friendly people.
It's so much fun to watch your videos as they ( people) can't believe what just happened π
I enjoy your interactions in the community. So much kindness and so much fun!
