I was just like worried about what am I gonna do when I go back to Tokyo I have to find a new apartment like maybe I'll move in with lauda my best friend for a little bit or whatever you know and during that trip my manager messages me and he's like hey so you're confirmed for Thailand now they want you to come and I'm like what I so so I'm actually going there for three months he's like yeah and I'm like awesome who who gets to go to fly to Thailand to model for three months that's like a vacation you know what I mean solved all my problems instantly like I didn't have to find a new apartment in Tokyo I just all I had to do was find a storage unit pack all my things and fly here so that's what I did my life here is amazing I've met so many amazing people here I've made so many new friends and I think moving to Thailand was like the best decision ever um number one I don't like being cold and I really really hate winter because it's really cold and I it's just summer everyday here I love it all so I I'm doing really well with work I'm getting a lot of jobs and I really like that as well it's interesting because here they really really appreciate like the whole Asian Beauty type of model look like the whole curry and like k-beauty Japanese looking girls like we get a lot of jobs and I am really grateful for that because in Japan they don't appreciate Asian beauty as much I'm sure a lot of you already know this but a majority of the jobs will go to Caucasian models or half Caucasian models or like white passing models you know what I mean so me like when I had a black hair in Japan I didn't get jobs at all and the second I dyed it blonde like I got so many jobs it's so interesting how like the more Western you look the more jobs you'd get in Japan so I'm a little bit nervous about what will happen when I go back to Japan with my black hair my original plan was to dye it back blonde but it's just way too damaged at this point and I just don't think I can dye it back and I actually really like my dark hair I'm really enjoying it like I didn't think I would like it at first but I'm really enjoying having dark hair it feels nice to look the way I'm supposed to look naturally so I really like it I was actually supposed to after three months which was the end of January but I kind of decided to extend my stay so I'm here for another three months my mom's like scared that I'm never moving back to Japan and I'm like the plan is the plan is to move back after three months okay that's the plan like I met so many people here who were like I'd be like what brought you to Thailand and they'd be like oh I was only gonna stay for a month and I'm like so how long have you been here and they're like 12 years I was like three years I'm like damn I can kind of see myself being in their position because I really like my life here but at the same time I really really miss a lot of things about Japan and I really miss my friends and I really miss my family so I really don't know what's gonna happen of course I have to go back to Tokyo I know I do I have to but I kind of want to but don't want to at the same time also it's a good time I move back because from like around May June the rainy season starts here and apparently rainy season in Bangkok is not cute so it's perfect like running away from the winter go back like when it's spring in Tokyo you know awesome and i'm learning thai now it's so fun like i love learning new languages like oh it's so fun i learn like oh my god i'm too like shy to speak it but like okay okay okay okay okay somebody cap chu Ayumi cap and gown even you can DT night ha that's like hello I'm a you me I'm Japanese nice to meet you in Thai yes I learned how to speak Thai like I know how to like okay I know little words okay like knock is like kawaii cute soy is like beautiful throw my eyes go straight quoi is right sy is left for like taxis meet my a little bit I learned a lot of swear words - oh and I know how to count no song some see ha Hawk jet that cow see and then zero is soon and then 100 is a toy learning time I'm having so much fun learning Thai it's really exciting and like I made a lot of Thai friends too so like when they're having a conversation and when you could like understand some words it's really excited like I understood that you know it's so exciting anyways I know you guys can tell I'm really excited about learning the language but yeah I mean let me know if you guys want to see videos like me learning Thai or my life in Thailand like pros and the cons living here what I like just like about Thailand I don't know just laughs comment if you have any ideas for my videos but anyways um just wanted to update you guys on my life and I'm very happy so I hope you guys are happy too don't forget to subscribe to my channel before you go and yeah I will see you guys in my next video
