Before we were stationed on Kadena Air Force Base in Okinawa Japan, I wondered what a typical day might look like for a military wife without kids. So I made this video to show a (relatively) typical day here in Okinawa- working out, errands, grabbing a plant-based lunch with a friend. Because I work in the States as a flight attendant, I don't have a strict schedule when home in Okinawa, so yes, every day is different. Regardless, hope you enjoy a glimpse of life here on this tropical island!

I love and appreciate any footage on Kadena, was an air force brat way back in 89-90 and lived off base close to gate 1 by the Sunabe seawall. Thank you for the video! Film on Kadena driving around as much as possible!

How did you cope with the humidity?

@xomarissalee Год назад

Loved this vlog! We would love to be stationed in Okinawa at some point! Such a unique experience!!

@EcoFlightAttendant Год назад

thank you! it really is so different & we love that about it here. hope you get Oki one day!

@caligirl3000 Год назад

I was stationed at Kadena from Aug 95 - Aug 97. Best assignment of my Air Force career. Went back twice on vacation while doing a remote. Planning on going back again soon. My second home from home!!!!

@EcoFlightAttendant Год назад

aw love this! Okinawa is definitely such a special place!

@vanessasmith9646 Год назад

We are stationed at Kadena too. I’m studying Japanese as well. Totally understand what you mean about language learning being a long road. Omg! But it’s worth it! がんばってね

@EcoFlightAttendant Год назад

I love how appreciative Japanese people are when you try to speak it! it definitely helps me going! がんばて to you too ☺

@MrVeteranVlogs Год назад

Great video

@swtumms Год назад

thank you for this, my husband and i are deciding on where to put in for his re-enlistment. I was curious to see what it would be like in Okinawa since our family will soon be becoming from the two of us to three. It's hard to imagine it but seeing this video has helped me vision what it could be like over there.

@EcoFlightAttendant Год назад

I'm so glad it helped a bit! we truly do love it here, but it definitely is what you make of it! It's extremely safe, the people are nice, and the water is stunning! & Congrats on your growing family 💗

@LonelyIslandYOurFavM Год назад

We’re moving to Fort Butler in 6 months and I have no idea what to expect!!

@EcoFlightAttendant Год назад

i'm not familiar with where that is, but if it's in Okinawa, hopefully you will love it here! the people and culture are amazing

@takeru2702 Год назад

@AmethystRuby38 Год назад

I miss okinawa sooooo much

@EcoFlightAttendant Год назад

there's no place quite like it!!

@maknyc1539 4 месяца назад

Nice video. I just think its mind blowing that that huge military base looks just like the US despite being in Japan. Its just crazy to me.

@EcoFlightAttendant 4 месяца назад

I agree, it's fascinating how different cultures can blend together in unexpected ways

@Stephyysierra 6 месяцев назад

i will be moving soon omg i would love to volunteer when im there yayyy!!

@Stephyysierra 6 месяцев назад

@EcoFlightAttendant 6 месяцев назад

We would love your help! Lmk when you’re on island! 🙌🏽🐾

@enyadiaz5366 8 месяцев назад

It’s going to my first time moving there with my husband what are some things I should look out for or do or what do you recommend ?

@EcoFlightAttendant 7 месяцев назад

how exciting! bring your furniture if you're coming from the US, as there's fewer options here. if there's something specific you need advice on feel free to slide into my dms on ig! lol

@mere-ej5uw 11 месяцев назад

My husband just got orders to move to Okinawa.. I am highly stressed about what the transition is going to be like for me and how traveling with my service dog will travel and what those restrictions are.. Do you have any insight on how to adjust to living in Japan and how traveling with a dog is?

@EcoFlightAttendant 11 месяцев назад

If it’s a service animal you should be able to stay with them the whole time. As for Japan, everyone is very nice. I would recommend learning a few useful phrases in Japanese and that will help a lot too. If you love the ocean Okinawa is a great place to be. Also very safe!

@Lov3lie Год назад

Hi ma’am my daughter just went and she says she has to stay for 2 years without coming back to the states is that true? And how much is a ticket to come back to the states?

@EcoFlightAttendant Год назад

No, you are free to travel for leisure as you wish, but it's with your own money (given that you also have the time). I'm not sure how much tickets are, it really depends on dates etc. I'd recommend using google flights to see the most affordable options. Thanks for subscribing!

@TeamPlayerTy Месяц назад

would you say its hard or relatively easy for a military couple living in japan, i would like my wife to be able to be a stay at home wife, but im concerened about leaving the states and going to a 1 income household espcially if that 1 income is only coming from the military

@EcoFlightAttendant Месяц назад

the cost of living is very affordable here. and lots of opportunities here if she likes pet sitting or babysitting for extra cash!

@Lov3lie Год назад

I just subscribed thanks

@EcoFlightAttendant Год назад

Thank you so much!

@mileslee1829 Год назад

I move there soon !! Umm have you ran into those huge spiders 😭 I’m arachnophobic so I need to mentally prepare

@EcoFlightAttendant Год назад

Oh how exciting!!! As for the spiders they are pretty scary but I've only seen them on hikes up in the trees! You'll also deal with less bugs if you don't live on the first floor!
