Alright.
I'm so glad that you did that because I wanted to catch you talking to random people.
Oh that was really simple Japanese though. But I mean it works.
See and that's what your viewers should understand too. You don't need a lot
to just communicate and have a good time
and understand something simple like: this is a game, this is how we play.
What lesson did we learn today Alyssa?
The lesson we learned today is you don't need to be perfect or speak perfect Japanese
or go up there like some master. You could just learn a little bit and have a conversation
and get to know the people and that's enough.
And don't be afraid to open your mouth and talk.
Yeah, exactly. Oh that's a cool shop.
It literally stopped as soon as I filmed.
It literally stopped as soon as I came over.
It's done.
Oh, there you go.
It's so cute.
Ah, yeah kind of.
Same. Oh my gosh we have the same camera look that that.
Oh it's like a gopro 7?
I have a gopro 7 black. We have the exact same camera. Oh, look at that.
Where are you from?
I'm from the US.
What are you doing in Japan?
What are you doing in Japan? Ha ha, what do you mean? You look like an Uber Eats guy.
Are you working here?
I'm stranded here.
Nah, I was a student at Waseda.
I was just an exchange student, but actually I live in China.
So my university sent me to Japan for one semester and I got stuck here.
Stuck? I don't know. I'm have a terrible time.
Must be so hard. Look at me with this bubble tea.
No, you're being too nice. Your English is quite good.
So you must do an English Youtube channel right?
Oh, it's all Japanese.
Oh that's cool though.
How did you learn Japanese?
At Japanese school.
And Waseda.
I forgot, you're so smart.
No, but that was very different Japanese than just (everyday conversation). You know?
That's like (political science). (technical words and jargon).
I left Canada like 10 months ago.
You know it. Ok, I'm sorry to bother you.
I just saw another vlogger and I was like "That's so cool".
Alright, good luck man.
I'll text you.
Ok, we'll keep in touch. Bye.
That's how you make friends.
It's like living in a hostel. I lived in a hostel for several months.
You just go up and talk to people.
Pick a topic. He had the same camera as me.
No need to be shy. No need to be embarrassed.
If you want to talk to someone, just do it.
And he's the super friendly type. Not everybody's gonna behave like that.
But you know, some people are very friendly and very outgoing and very fun.
