I live in the "heart of Japan" and I have a "heart for Japan." This channel is about the amazing people I meet, the amazing places I visit and the amazing things I encounter while living in Japan.
i bought one and like the texture of it , however i have sensitive skin and its just way to hard for me , is there a way to make it more squishy or soft ?
Disfruté absolutamente todo, antes de aterrizaje, la estancia, el entretenimiento de los niños y la boda. Lindas fotos, un hermoso vestido, le quedó genial a la novia. Gracias por compartir.
Primero buscaré en el campo, monte como nosotros decimos. Luego veré tiendas naturistas. Aprecio que respondas que recién lo descubriste y que aún no sabes mucho, pero que lo muestras, muchas gracias.
If you’re using a loofah once, and then throw it away, it’s ok but if you don’t. I suggest you never use them, because they are bacteria infected. you are washing your body with this and then leaving it inside the shower it’s going to get infected by 🦠 . I suggest you use washcloths one for your face and one for your body. Once you are done using them, you can wash them. Remember only use the washcloth once and then throw them in the washer. take what I’m saying into consideration, and do some research please.
You are silly. Soap is a surfactant. Soap molecules stick to water, and they stick to dirt and grease. As long as you RINSE out your sponge/loofah, you are unlikely to grow bad bacteria. Another important step is to air out the sponge and let it dry, if it stays wet for too much time, it will contract airborne bacteria and grow mold. Allowing it to dry stops bacteria growth. Don't wash your washcloth after every use, it's just a waste of energy and water, and your cloth will wear out sooner.
I think my comment disappeared, but I was trying to explain to you that soap is a surfactant. The molecules of soap bind to water AND grease and dirt. As long as you RINSE out the sponge, the dirt and grime will go away with the soap and rinse water. Please do not waste more energy and water by washing your towels every single use! 🤦🏻♀️
@@ewe392 I don’t think you understand how bacteria works🤣 you are in denial because the truth is uncomfortable. All you have to do is some research. Let’s just hope you’re not saving energy and water by not washing your hands every day or using the same t shirt, underwear and socks more than once..🤢 some people hygiene is insane.
@@Wtfpleasehlp you are not letting your sponge dry out then. The traces of bacteria that are left should be dried up after each use. It pauses their growth. I don't think you understand how the human immune system works. You need to be exposed to small amounts of bacteria in order for your body to build an immunity to it. A kitchen sponge made of plastic has less areas for moisture to evaporate from, it is of higher possibility that it could grow bacteria over time. A natural loofah is not as dense, and will dry, therefore halting any bacteria growth. You constantly have bacteria around you, on you, in you. On your pillow, toothbrush, keyboard, steering wheel........if you constantly sanitized everything your entire life, and suddenly we're exposed to bacteria, your body would have no defense against it. You have a high possibility of getting sick constantly. Think viruses, similar. Analogy, American Indians vs European diseases.
after brewing your initial raw kombucha.. add some flavor (fruit) or whatever to it. let it sit about 24 hours at room temp. release the pressure from the bootle and then store cold in the fridge. in the fridge carbon remumes building up.
I am still learning. I think it has something to do with the sugar content in the juice or syrup you add, plus the season. During the summer it got fizzy quickly, but now in the winter it seems to take forever to get fizzy.
@@heartofjapan9122 you have to store it cold.. the reason for the fridge is that outside the fridge the fermenting process just keeps going and going. this is where all that pressure comes from. store cold and your explosions should be solved. remember to realease pressure befor putting in the fridge.
Hello Heart of Japan channel owner. I have seen some videos of your RU-vid channel. Actually you are making very nice and good video content.

Hi I enjoyed your video. Am planning a trip to this Gorge end October. Question: is it highly advisable to book the river boat cruise well in advance. Do they accept cash for the boat ride . Thank You 😊
I think the fall season is popular for the changing leaves ,so booking in advance in Japan is always a good idea. I think you can pay cash in Japanese yen, but to be sure see their website for the most up to date information. I hope you enjoy the ride as we did.
I'm no expert since I just discovered it myself. Aside from the ways I mentioned in the video please look at other RU-vid channels for more ways to use it. Good luck!
You may be able to use it to humidify your room. You put half of the bottom portion of the Luffa in the water, then the water will evaporate from the top portion of the Luffa.
If your climate will grow them, I suggest trying to get some seeds online. Keep trying even if the plants die at first. I did and now I can grow them successfully.
If you are looking to get into the interpreting or translation profession, I highly recommend this video! Chika is a professional interpreter with years of experience. She shares so many helpful tips in this video.
This is so lovely! I used to teach English in Matsukawa machi and I just LOVED their outstanding apples and the sweetest village folks there. What church did you visit on this video? Was it christian? It is hard to find a great Christian church in Japan, but God is certainly on the move and there are some wonderful ones. Japan is a country on my heart as well and I wanted to say keep shining! Great video, thank you.
Thank you for your encouraging comments. I attended the Christian church of our new friends, but I don't recall the name. The service was very nice. I'm so glad to meet another person with a "Heart of Japan!"
I got such a picture of "Faith" and the "Word" from watching a little SCOBY work its quiet power on the Kombucha. It is uncanny. It even has a day of rest, so to speak. Later it becomes explosive....if that's true, what can we do with a little spiritual SCOBY in our lives (Hebrews 4:11-12 NIV).
Oh no!!!😂 I have had that happen before. I have taken to “burping” my ‘bucha almost every day during the second ferment. It really depends on how much sugar is in it(not just the “seed” sugar but from any flavors you introduce). For example, I find that strawberries need to be burped daily but orange not so much.
Thank you so much for the tips. I just got a revelation! The SCOBY is so active and alive to eventually create such a powerful explosion. We also have something that is active and alive in us that gives us explosive power too (Hebrews 4, NIV).
