I will be returning to Los Angeles from Japan next month.
I would like to bring 5 cartons of cigarettes.
One carton will be duty free and the other 4 cartons will be declared to customs and tax will be paid, but how much will the tax be ? Also, is it possible to bring in 5 cartons ?
If you have done customs declaration at LAX, please tell me the procedure. If you have done customs declaration at LAX, I would appreciate it if you could tell me the procedure. \I would appreciate it if you could tell me the procedure.

Recently, many people are returning to Japan
most of them are in their 60's or older.
We would like to hear the opinions of those who have decided to return to Japan, or
those who have already done so.
On the other hand, I would like to hear from those who will continue to live here.
My husband is American and I will stay here unless I get divorced. My children are also here.
Also, climate is an issue, and my parents are gone.
I think I'll be patient and only go to Japan on vacation.
But recently I hear a lot of talk about going back to Japan, and it makes me a little nervous.

I had simply longed for the "blue skies of California" since I was a teenager.

After three years and one term as an expatriate, I realized that I would get married, have children, take them back to Japan, where they would start school and where I could not speak Japanese.

He realized that it was impossible to settle down in Japan and decided to quit his job as an expatriate and live in Japan permanently.


I am now "late in life" and my grandchildren have sent me off on a walking pilgrimage to the other side of the world.

Having said that, I would like to walk the path of Shikoku with my current legs for another 10 years.

Thank you for your experience.
I understand that you are u-turn to the U.S. again after returning home. Perhaps you came back to Japan too soon.

I would imagine that you were in a very healthy ( and young ) group at the assisted living facility. That would make them a bad fit.

We are talking about returning home when they can no longer drive. That would be in their 80s. I am in my early 70s now. Right now we are in a house with no problems and neither of us needs care.

We still like the climate here ( and the South Bay ) is hard to leave.
We don't have to worry about the cost of medical care anymore since we are on Medicare.

When the children started school, they could not speak Japanese, and their conversations with their parents were also in English?

Hello. I am a permanent resident of the United States.
I want to be famous in America.
I heard that there are not many people who play Japanese roles in the American movie industry, so I'm aiming for it, but how can I get hired ?

Please tell me if you know more about this.

I am living in OC for a period of a few years.
I have been to some of the famous beaches and shopping malls, but
I would like to know if there are any hole-in-the-wall places that the locals recommend.
In addition to recommended tourist attractions, stores, and restaurants in OC, I am also interested in historical buildings and nature.
If you are a local, please let me know. Thank you in advance.

Moving from CA to TX

I don't know anyone in particular directly or anything, but it seems like a lot of people have moved from California to Texas in the last few years. Is there a reason why ?

my friend's sister, my friend's middle school teacher, a friend of my roommate from school, the sister-in-law of a manicurist I went to, my cousin's ex-husband, the mother of a friend from school …

all of them are different races and ages. They're all from different parts of the country, but after two years, I thought Texas ? again.

If you say it just happened, well isn't that an amazing coincidence ? 😂.

If you find a job and are looking for a transfer to TX before you move, take the plunge and apply.
You've moved, but you're not ready to settle down if you can't find a job.

Finally infected with corona

I have fever, fatigue, and breathlessness.
I have not been to the hospital since the symptoms started last night.

■ What should I take for medicine ?
At first, I took Kuzuneito since it was still at 37 degrees Celsius. → But I didn't feel much effect.

■ Should I go to the hospital while the symptoms are still in the early stages ? My clinic does not seem to accept positive patients.

I am not sure what to expect, even after searching on the internet, so any advice from those who have experience would be appreciated.

# 1 vaccinated ?
I heard if you were vaccinated you wouldn't get severely ill.
My daughter who was vaccinated last week ( Pfizer ) 3 times tested positive for corona but her only symptom was a runny nose.
She is fine now.
