Someone asked me for directions in Shinjuku, the other day
I think because they are foreigners, they have the courage to ask for directions when they are in Japan.
For me I can't even ask for directions in Tokyo,
I will google myself and avoid asking someone.
That's what I envy.
Like to actually ask for directions?
Yes, I think these positive gesture is what I envy.
I envy most of them for having white skin.
Like you, and have a big nose.
And the big eyes,
I think you have green eyes? I also envy this.
I always look at foreigners and envy that they are so beautiful.
It's always gonna be the outside and
the nice body and the big nose.

They have slim legs and they say it's hard for them to gain weight.
I feel very envious
That's all the questions, thank you very much!
Looks like the grass is always greener on the other side.
So for example, a long nose is a good thing in Japan.
And not such a good thing in other places depending on where you go.
So it always depends on which country you are in and
what beauty standard are of that country.
Intersting to see that many Japanese girl seems to have an image of those beautiful foreigners,
that usually appear in HollyWood movies.
And everyone being very tall.
But for example I am not very tall.
So it's interesting to see that image that Japanese people seem to have
is very much inspired by the media and such.
So how about you?
What do you think and what do you envy about Japanese people?
I'm looking forward to you.
