Unfiltered Week: Settling into My Life in Japan

The moment I’ve been waiting for has finally arrived. In this #vlog, I’m sharing an unfiltered look at my first week settling into a sharehouse in Japan. For those curious about the reality of moving abroad, this video captures it all... unfiltered. It covers everything from unpacking and decluttering clothes in a still-messy room to shopping for sharehouse essentials, as well as moments of self-reflection and taking a breather amidst the exhaustion.
