    Great episode! Wow your mom is fearless! Good job mom! We have experienced this kind of kindness from the locals there who even go out of there way to take you somewhere like that man took your mom to Godzilla, very nice people! I like it when that Godzilla makes noise and breathes some smoke! Aloha 🤙🏽😊

    I love this so much. Your mom is a real team player. I've been living abroad for many years and I don't think I could get my mom to do this.

    In my experience, the locals have been very very helpful. One girl even took me onto the train then told me when to get off. If I made a mistake with my bill on the train the ppl don’t get mad but they help you correct it. Or they get a translator in the stores. That’s on thing I’ve liked in japan

    I think its cool that your mom features in this😄 out of curiosity how rigorous was the process involved in arranging for her to come visit you?
    Also that manga cafe would be heaven for a weeb like me lol

    Hi Enim,

    You guys seemed to have lots of fun experiencing social interaction.
    Special congrats to your mom for being such brave 💪.
    And yes, her japanese sounded like 中文 + american, oopsy 😅😂
    Thanks for sharing!

    When mom said nihao…it almost took me out. Mom was like, I'm going to throw it all at them and see where it lands. Lol but good on mom for being courageous enough to even try. That takes some true guts to go up to strangers, and in another language, you don't know even more so. How long is your mom staying for?
