Unlimited is good if you don't mind slowdowns ！

I don't know anything difficult, so I can always use it normally. I can expect to panic if it suddenly slows down or stops while I'm driving, so I'm excited to get unlimited.

I think people who understand how much they use, GB and capacity, can save more.

Last year I don't remember my battery running that low if I charged it in the morning and went and used it occasionally on the road, but this year I was often frustrated because I just used it a little and it ran out of charge quickly.

Last year I didn't carry a mobile charger with me, but this year if I didn't have a mobile charger, the battery was completely dead before the evening.

It is quite heavy to carry mobile charger, smartphone, and pocket Wi-Fi. But I think it is a sacrifice to make my stay in unfamiliar Japan as convenient as possible.

＞ I turned it on only when I wanted to make a call, since there was no incoming call.

This is too old a story to be of any help, but it was around 2012 when I stayed overnight in Dogo Onsen Town in Matsuyama City, Ehime Prefecture on a walking pilgrimage to Shikoku on a trip to Japan, and the next morning I was walking through the city to the next temple, No. 52, Taiyama-ji. The next morning, I was walking through the city to the next temple, 52nd Taisanji Temple, when my cell phone rang through my pocket WiFi.

When I picked up the phone, it was a friend of my wife's (XX) and she said, "I tried to call you but you didn't answer, so I called your husband. \If you are there, can you please take over the phone?

That's not good. I picked up the phone and said, "I'm walking around Matsuyama city in Shikoku, Japan, and of course my wife is not around, so I'll hang up the phone. But the other party didn't seem to understand what I said, so they called me again right away.

I have such memories of Pocket WiFi, and I can still clearly recall the situation.

Thank you all for all the advice. I apologize for not responding to some of them. 🙇‍ ♀️We got back from Japan yesterday, we are here for a week. My husband texts frequently with friends in the US, so we got the Verizon travel pass. It's $12 a day per person. We went to Fukuoka City and stayed at a hotel with Wi-Fi, a shopping mall with Wi-Fi, used LINE with relatives in Japan, and were able to roam and Google where there was no Wi-Fi. Everything went well. Thank you all for your advice ♪ ❤️❤️👍👍🙇

#23 Anna,

I see...that's a way to go. I will use it as a reference for my trip to Japan next spring.

Well, I'm too old to surf the net while traveling in Japan unless I have to. Younger people may have many chances to contact their parents, siblings, or best friends by phone, but I am over 80 years old and my mother, who is over 100 years old, is living in a very good facility, but I have lost my head. I go to visit her at the facility, but I can't get a conversation going, even though my son has come to visit her. I guess that's what she means.

"Reflect the unique Japanese spirit in our products and bring smiles and peace of mind to those who visit our store and those who pick them up" is a uniquely Japanese expression and English speakers may not understand it.

For English-speaking people in general, "the spirit of the Japanese" means "what is it ？? It is like a Japanese soldier who runs right into enemy fire shouting "Banzai for the Emperor!" Therefore, it is doubtful that the Google Translate translation is really meaningful.

AI predictions say it will eventually reach 230 yen per dollar. If I don't move now, I will lose a lot of money.

> Do I have to declare my land, house, etc. ？

I heard that property tax in Japan was deductible in the US until a few years ago although I don't have to. I heard that if you rent out your house in Japan, you have to declare your rental income in the US.

Do you have permanent residency in Japan? It would be miserable if you have a place to live in Japan but not the right to live there, like the Chinese who buy a bomb of Japanese real estate but cannot live in Japan.

I had no idea what a terrarium was, so I googled it and found that it is a thing that creates a super miniature natural world inside that glass aquarium.

I don't know where you can buy them because I'm not interested in them at all, but those glass aquariums are in pet stores that sell killifish and tropical fish. There is a large pet store near my house called Petco that sells tanks of various sizes and shapes. Is that soil special? I would use soil from my own garden, but looking online, it seems that this is not just any soil.

If you are returning to Japan to care for your parents without setting a time limit and then returning to the U.S. again, I think it would be best to first obtain U.S. citizenship and then stay in Japan with a permanent residence permit, as recommended by Showa Ototsuan. Once you let your green card lapse, it may be difficult to get it again. （ I don't have any experience with this, so I don't know for sure. ）
I am a citizenship holder （ I became a citizen about 15 years ago ） but I returned to Japan about 10 years ago for the purpose of returning permanently. At that time, I first entered Japan with a short-term （ 3-year ） visa and applied for a permanent residence permit after entering the country, which was granted in about a year. I remember that I did all the procedures by myself and it was not so difficult. However, after 4 years, I decided that I could not live in Japan and came back to the US. （ I now live in Hawaii ）
From my experience, I believe that Japanese immigration control is kinder to "ex-Japanese" and not as strict as the US green card system. I think it is advantageous for U.S. citizens to travel between Japan and the U.S. in situations where the length of stay is not very predictable. However, it depends on when you return to Japan, and whether you will be able to obtain citizenship by then. In my case, I remember it was about a year after I applied. （ It was quite a while ago, so I am not too sure. ）

Showa Otouta-san has a Japanese passport, so he can prove his survival at the consulate.
Baikinman can't prove his existence at the consulate because he has already returned his Japanese passport.

Use your head and understand the difference.

If you also return your Japanese passport and clear your mind, you don't need a notary or consulate like Mr. Baijinman, you can prove your survival just by showing your electric bill.

You should consider which is cheaper.
