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.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

I think there is a big difference in prices.
Japan is talking about 20 million yen problem in retirement, but in LA area, even if you have 1 million yen, it's not enough.
At least if you work for a Japanese company, you can't live in LA after retirement.
Many Japanese here are living paycheck to paycheck, and many of them don't have a proper retirement fund saved up.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

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.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

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.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

> When the children started school, were they unable to speak Japanese, and did they also speak English with their parents?
No, we thought they would never learn Japanese if we spoke to them in English, so we spoke to them in Japanese from the time they were babies.
I don't know if there are Japanese from Japan who still speak like that, but around 50 years ago, in the Japanese community here in the Valley, many people used strange Japanese like "Me is going downtown, are you going too? I did not want my children to learn this kind of Japanese, so I spoke to them in correct Japanese at home from the time they were babies and pretended not to understand when they responded in English. However, once we stepped out of the house, of course, all the neighborhood children spoke English. Naturally, my child's first language would be English.
Therefore, even today, my 40-odd sons who work for LAUSD speak correct Japanese when they talk to us.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

The ideal is to live in both. It is hard because you have to do one or the other. But if you ask me where I want to end up, it might be Japan, where medical costs are lower and the cost of living is lower, but that would just mean more weight on living in Japan, and as long as I am physically able, it is both.
But I really want to live in Europe as well.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

Nowadays, these 40-weather-weather-aged punks speak decent Japanese when they talk to us.
It seems that it was fortunate that they had been speaking Japanese well since they were children.
They were also able to study English well, and after college they became teachers in LAUSD and made a steady living.
My grandchildren's Japanese is almost completely wiped out because they did not live with me 24 hours a day.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

If you go back to Japan today, you will see a too funny masked bewitching scenery.
It seems that most of the dumb people wear them because they can't show their faces to others anymore, or because everyone else is wearing them, even though they are not obliged to.
And visitors to Japan are now limited to tours only, and there seems to be strict checks by tour conductors to make sure they always wear masks ( lol ).
I don't want to wear a mask in the intense heat of Japan ? Let's keep putting our opinions in the Prime Minister's Office HP opinion form to eliminate the intense heat thought stopping sympathetic pressure mask !.This text has been translated by auto-translation.

> I don't want to wear a mask in the intense heat of Japan
Once you get used to it, it doesn't matter so much how hot it is.
When I first started hiking in the mountains, my breathing became very heavy and I felt a lot of strain on my lungs, especially when inhaling, but after two or three times I didn't mind at all.
The same can be said for heat. You don't wear an overcoat in the middle of summer, you just feel the heat around your mouth, so you will soon get used to it.
But I personally think that the "mask requirement" in Japan should be dropped. Especially outside.

> In Japan, everyone voluntarily wore masks even before the corona
It was only people with allergies such as hay fever, not all people walking on the streets did.
After corona, first of all 100% of people do.
Japanese who care about other people's eyes will feel guilty if they don't wear a mask, and almost everyone will wear a mask.
However, most people also have the habit of "getting together for a drink" in the evening, and
"drink or sing" at a diner or bar, and splash around.
This does not reduce the infection rate.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)
