We are currently looking for a place to live and are considering the Cupertino and Sunnyvale area.
I have the impression that it is a good place to work and make friends, but
How do you feel about living here ?
Any information would be appreciated. Any information would be appreciated.
My hobbies are tennis and knitting, and I enjoy playing tennis and making stuffed animals with my friends.
As for my job, I hope to work for an IT company.

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.This text has been translated by auto-translation.

What is your experience with tests related to COVID-19 performed within 72 hours prior to departure?
I also checked the information from the Consulate General of Japan in San Francisco, but it is not a place I can go during work hours,
I created this topic because I would like information about the entire Bay Area.

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.

Have you ever felt ?
I have been feeling a no-welcome atmosphere lately, though somewhat, such as not making eye contact with the cashier, or being passed over when I say hello (because I'm wearing a mask ? \cHB093}.
Even at the pool, if another child was playing nearby, the parents would call them over and distance themselves. It was blatant because I was playing normally with other white kids.
Have you ever felt the change in daily life ?
I thought I was the only one who was concerned about it, so I made a topic about it.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 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.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)

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.This text has been translated by auto-translation.

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.This text has been translated by auto-translation.

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.

I hired a lawyer this year as well, and six months later, in July, the application was completed ( late ! ), a month later, I received a notice of fingerprinting, which I completed, but I received a different notice ( and a new request to submit evidence ), which I am temporarily suspended. The road still seems to be long. How are you doing after that, Makosan ??

I don't know about the flavorful eggs that taste good eaten raw like in Japan, but you can eat low-pasteurized eggs as they are ! You can find them in Japanese supermarkets, but you can also get them at Whole Foods, Sprouts, or other nearby American supermarkets, labeled "pasteurized eggs".
