I am also planning to return to Japan in June as well and am currently gathering information.
I need to receive a negative certificate on Saturday since my flight is on Monday, and I was considering going to CVS → to get a certificate made at Kobayashi Clinic, but this idea was rejected because they do not offer service on weekends and I would not be able to make my flight in time.
If you are flying on a weekday, Kobayashi Clinic's certificate preparation sounds good.
I will have to issue a high negative certificate … which is hard … since I am with my child.
I would be happy to share more information in the future ！ Thank you ！.

Dear K's and Pippi
Thank you for sharing the information ！
I was planning to take the NAAT test （ at Walgreen ） in 2 hours and ask for rewriting at Kobayashi Clinic. I was thinking of taking the NAAT test in 2 hours and asking Kobayashi Clinic to rewrite it, but when I checked Walgreen's website, there were almost no branches that accepted the NAAT test, so I gave up on it.
By the way, I heard that if you take PCR on Saturdays and Sundays, the result may be later than usual, so I gave up on this too. （ Tuesday flight. ）

This information was given to me by someone else. I hope it is close to where Pippi lives. They also issue certificates for Japan. I am planning to take it here and ask Kobayashi Clinic to rewrite it. We also have a child with us, so I really hope they will get rid of the tests and certificates as soon as possible ＿ |￣|○
May you return to Japan safely ！

I recommend Worksite Labs, which I use all the time, for a plan that emails me a negative certificate in the format specified by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs within 24 hours ＄ 90. There are faster and more expensive plans available, but I think this is sufficient. even though the service is within 24 hours, I have received my certificates within half a day twice in the past. The SF Downtown site I use is very convenient and has a parking garage as well. There is also a site in San Jose. I returned to Japan on April 28 and was able to enter the country as usual with this certificate. I think this is a rule specific to Japan, but as of April 25, "Antigen and RT-PCR are different test types. I do not believe Japan accepts antigen testing. I think RT-PCR testing would be safer. I think you will be safe with the RT-PCR test. I did not apply for this and it took 6 hours to get out of quarantine ～ airport. I think you need to be especially careful at Narita airport, where there are more and more passengers and many flights arrive in the afternoon ！.

Hello.

You are a wonderful wife to have prepared so many things for your husband. Some food items are not allowed, and people here are vegetarian, vegan, pescatarian, and other organic oriented people Some amino acids in soup stock are not allowed, or meat extract in cup ramen noodles.
The sure thing is tea-based products and sweets.
Kit Kat and other green tea flavors are appreciated.
Other teas are also appreciated, and drip coffee is great because we don't have it here.

Stationery items also do not use pencils or erasers here （ just a squishy erase with a pen ）.
Maybe a cute notepad or masking tape would be nice.

I think they will be pleased with the luxury furikake, it doesn't take up much space and lasts a long time. ！
I think it would be good to have some delicious flavored nori (seaweed in a can), since we don't buy them here.

Just one thing. Saran wrap is usually available at Daiso.

Extreme care must be taken when it comes to food, as many items are prohibited from being brought into the country. Importation of anything of animal origin is prohibited. Even plant-derived items, such as seeds and items that may harbor insects, must be quarantined. Baked goods （ such as rice crackers, cookies, etc. ） do not seem to be a problem, but fresh confections may be a problem. （ Japanese confectionery stores can be found in Silicon Valley. ）
Japanese stationery seems to be appreciated because of its good quality. If the family has children （ Japanese ）, Japanese comic books, characters, DVDs, etc. would also be appreciated. If the recipient is an American, small Japanese souvenirs （ such as dolls, wallets, scarves, etc. ） are also likely to be appreciated.

Nice to meet you.
Just to be frank, I would like to take the practical test at the DMV in San Francisco, is there anyone who is kind enough to accompany me ？
I am thinking of 4/7 or 4/8 as my schedule.
We can provide a rental car.
We can pay you some compensation, or you can have a meal at a restaurant, etc.
I would appreciate it if you could contact me as soon as possible so that I can discuss this with my roommates and business associates.
Thank you very much.

Toyosu in Walnut Creek is delicious. Although it is not Japanese-owned, it has a good reputation among Japanese people here.

I live in Sunnyvale.
There are many beautiful parks, with Cupertino next door. There is also a lot of playground equipment for children. Of course, there are tennis courts.
For knitting, Joann, michael is nearby.
Marukai and other supermarkets are easily accessible, and the Saturday farmer's market is fun.
The garbage separation is not very tolerant or there are a lot of non-recyclable items, which I think is a waste of money. It is relatively quiet and safe, but there are some families who sometimes play loud music.

Hi, I am a student living in Cupertino. The area around here is home to people of various ethnic backgrounds, and there are many different supermarkets. I think it is very comfortable to live here because there are relatively many Japanese supermarkets, Chinese and Korean supermarkets, and restaurants in the area. I also think it is relatively safe and secure.
As I do not have a car, it is difficult for me to go out for fun, and I sometimes feel that it is boring. The tennis court in front of Dianza College is used by many people every day, and I am sure you will make friends easily.

Do you know of any facebook communities ？ I think if you search for Ushinenkai in the Bay Area, it will come up, if not, please let me know and I will invite you. Also, if you are in the Mountain View area, Cuesta Park is a great place for small children. \cH000000}

The erasers in various shapes are also unique to Japan and kids collect them.

Daiso goods are, after all, useful for keeping things organized. There are just the right size when you need a little container.

Even if you are not at the places mentioned above, any institution that uses the designated inspection method and writes on the form prescribed by the Japanese government will be fine.
Since the form is also written in English, I was able to enter the country with it without any problem.
The space to write Negative is narrow and one time the result of the inspection was not written.
Other entrants were also stuck at Narita with that. The doctor also wrote on the assumption that it was negative, so it would be a good idea to check if you missed it before leaving the country.

When I entered a museum, they gave brochures to everyone but me, but for some reason they didn't request them or feel their presence and I would think "That ？ .... No, it's my imagination ？" at times. I often think that perhaps my intentions are not being conveyed because my voice is not very loud to begin with and I am wearing a mask even more. Although it has been only one year since I came to the U.S., I felt that people here communicate with their eyes, or in a style that is a little unfamiliar to us Japanese. I am wondering if this is the way to be buried. However, it is my own interpretation, but I feel that I am less likely to be asked for money on the street than people of other races. I think they probably don't know how to treat me and just pass me by. lol Overall, I feel that there are many kind people here, so it's no wonder that some people treat me a little differently. Incidentally, my husband is a foreigner, and he has felt a lot of discomfort in Asian countries (including Japan, of course). I guess it is the same everywhere.

Mr. Horo
Yes ！ that's it ！ that's exactly what it is. I feel like I'm feeling it, and I feel like I'm mistaken. It's like.
But the frequency of that has increased. I try to be as open as possible, but it still breaks my heart when they ignore me. I want to be nice to them, but I wonder if I am bothering them.
I am becoming more and more shy, but after reading your post, I decided to be open and honest. I will try to keep a balance.

That was hard for you. My daughter also had a case where she was the only one who didn't get trick or treat candy. She is only 2 years old, so I don't think she really understood what was going on, but it was heartbreaking.
If your husband has been in Asia, I'm sure he has felt the same way. If you're an ethnic group that doesn't speak English, I'm sure you'd feel extra soppy when you saw your husband. Overall, it's true that most people are kind ！ I have to see the good side too.

As Yumiko said, I think it's great that you are trying to keep a balance. However, when people ignore you, it can really break your heart, can't it? But when I deal with various people at work, I think that there must be people who don't have enough room in their hearts to be kind to others. I try to think that when I meet someone who is cold, after I happen to experience something unpleasant, or when I am very busy, I lose my meticulousness towards people, and I think that everyone has that kind of thing （ lol ）. Well, whether it's right or wrong, I feel like I'm happier when I think that way. But I think it's also important to be firm when you are treated unfairly, overtly. I hope that other Asian people in particular will not have to go through the same experience, even if only a little bit. It is difficult in many ways, but let's do our best.

Due to the ongoing WWII Japanese American internment system, there were no or few Japanese American communities in the U.S. Instead, when I arrived here in 2004, it was Chinatown in Oakland that accepted me.

To be honest, class cleansing in Chinatown has been going on at least since just after World War II, and violence against Asians has been going on since the end of the Edo period when Asians first came to the US. Asians and Asian Americans have been fighting since then. But no one accepted Asians. To create an image of a race that "obeys whites with an open heart." My church--a temple--decided to call it a "church" even though it was a Buddhist temple during the incarceration era. Before that, Buddhist Nikkei were arrested by the FBI and others, like Muslims these days--I learned that kind of history in the Buddhist ・ Church ・ of ・ Oakland.

California, and Chinatown, you know, started long before I first came here--the Asian elderly always going missing.

Asians, especially Asian women but also men, being singled out for sexual/domestic violence.

If we even try to say a word about all of this to non-Asians, we are called liars and subjected to further verbal and physical violence. They will tell you that they have never been called a liar, and they will say they have never been called a liar.

The only thing that changed was that for a moment the media acknowledged our suffering. It was only for a moment, but because of that we could fight it for a long time.

I joined the civilian patrol in Oakland Chinatown a few months ago. Asians are always laughed at by the police - so Asians facing domestic violence, who lost their beautiful apartment in 2014 and are in debt that cannot be exceeded by $21,000, are "not real cases". \It's not a real case...(I'm male, but I'm a gender crosser, and the police didn't know me that well...) but Asians can now protect their community.

And then I joined a group to restore the original Chinatown.

I can't say I'm fluent in Cantonese, and I don't feel lonely here because there are so few Japanese, but we are all ＊ the same person ＊ and Chinatown has been a kind place for me for many years with no community and no living family. I have no community, no living family. So I think we should all grab each other's hands and fight the hate.

The top of the chimney is usually open to the sky, and rainwater enters the chimney at the same time the smoke comes out of it.　　The rainwater is sucked straight down to the ground.　　Roughly one meter from the floor, there is a tunnel opening diagonally down when viewed from above.　That tunnel immediately goes straight down to your fire floor.　Smoke then rises straight up from the fire floor, curves diagonally upward, and then rises straight back up again.　　At the top of this firebox is a lid that can be opened and closed.　The lever to open and close it can be seen on either side of the top.　If you are burning a fire, you must open this lid or smoke will flow back into the room.　It is easier to know if it is open or closed by checking during the daytime with an empty light.
