I love that you are composting and using bath water in your garden. Have you thought about getting a rain barrel to collect rain water for your garden? I know it must have felt good to work in your garden and then relax after all of your hard work. I’m envious that you have a stress free life. I’m working hard to reduce the stress in my life. Wish me luck!
I hadn't thought about that! It's a good idea ☺️. If I need more water, it would be nice to install it. Yes, home gardening makes me feel really good and gives me a sense of accomplishment. I wish you luck! Please take care of yourself and try not to overwork too much 😢.
Thank you Nagasaki-San for another nice video🐥I'm proud of you for your little home garden! Be patient and you will see the results and feel so satisfied🏵It's so nice also to have the chance to go around the city with you and I personally love to visit markets all around the world it was such an interesting trip 🌷 Ps the Tanka is lovely 👑 A suggestion: please use gloves and a hat and sunscreen when working in the garden 👒
BTW, my family and I are from Kentucky, USA, and we have learned so much from your simple lifestyle. Love your Miso soups. We plan on making some just like yours during summer vacation. Thanks again ❤
I love your videos. Thank you also for showing the names of your groceries and the way you cook. I find all that you do very helpful. Thank you so much. Also thanks for the captions. ❤
Your vlogs are always so peacefull and so cool, I love it ! Being french, I almost had a panic attack seeing the glass you used for the wine :D You definitely should find some wine glasses to enjoy even more the aromas and taste, especially with these florals Portugese wines !
Thank you for watching and leaving a comment! I'm sorry for giving you a panic attack! 😆 Yes, I definitely need to find some good wine glasses to enjoy the wine more!
Vaya,amigo,es fenomenal la rutina saludable que te has establecido! Todo son ventajas: 1 Acondicionar tu jardín para poder covertirlo en un huerto y cultivar tus propias hortalizas(seguro que el sabor resulta incomparablemente mejor y más barato que en las tiendas...además de aprovechar tus residuos organicos y evitar plásticos) 2 Familiarizarte poco a poco con tu casita(que,por cierto,cada vez me gusta más !😊 El poema y el tic-tac del reloj me encantaron), cocinar tus platos sencillos y saludables 3 Obligarte a estar activo cada día,al subir y bajar la colina y trabajar en el huerto 4 Poder disfrutar de la naturaleza a tu alrededor y tener tambien una paronámica increible y bellísima del puerto y de la ciudad... Creo que lo tienes todo para ser 😄 😊 Espero que,a partir de ahora sea así y disfrutes de una vida plena y satisfactoria🤩🫠 Mucha suerte con el canal y mucho éxito tambien con tus otros trabajos independientes!! Te seguiremos la pista,no lo dudes😅 Un fuerte abrazo dede España!😘👍
Vaya, ¡me emociona recibir un comentario tan amable y cálido de España! Te lo agradezco mucho; ¡tu comentario me anima mucho! Sí, creo que ahora estoy estableciendo una rutina y una vida diaria realmente saludables. Espero que tú y mis espectadores disfrutéis de mi vídeo y de mi "Vida en Nagasaki". ¡¡¡Gracias!!!☺️
HI! i discovered recently your channel and is so relaxing and inspiring! A few years ago I visited Japan and what I liked the most and what I enjoyed the most was visiting the historical areas and being able to stay in a traditional house. As well as enjoying delicious food! Greetings from Spain!
There's always something fulfilling about doing gardening work, whether it's planting and growing your own fruits and vegetables, or if you're mowing your lawn and doing some maintenance. Even if you're living in an apartment, it's still possible to grow your own herbs and spices. I wouldn't be surprised if my workplace successor in Nagasaki is actually doing that now in my former apartment - it's something we talk about once in a while. I miss the view from the top of the new City Hall building. It's a massive difference compared to the previous building in Sakuramachi, which was drab in comparison. If you can spot "Hotel Marine World" from there, that's basically the street where I lived. If you ever visit Melbourne in the future, let me know. I'm more than happy to bring you to Yarra Valley, which is full of wineries.
Yes, doing gardening work makes me relaxed and gives me a sense of accomplishment ☺️. In Nagasaki, it's surprising how much the city's scenery and atmosphere can change dramatically in just a few years. I think you lived in the city center 👀. I think Nagasaki will always be waiting for your return 😆 I really want to visit Melbourne, Australia someday (I hope the Japanese yen will be stronger in the future 😂).
@@life_in_nagasaki Ever since I moved back to Australia, I’ve been doing a lot of lawn mowing, both at home and at my younger brother’s house. When my brother started his own business, he became too busy to work on his lawn, so I would go over once every few weeks to help with the gardening there. At least I get free coffee from his shop in return. I’m tentatively planning to visit Nagasaki towards the end of March next year, around spring break. I’ve got a couple of friends to catch up with, and there are a couple of bakeries I need to revisit again. For the record, 籠町に住んでった。 Fingers crossed that the exchange rate will be good enough in the near future.
5:34 Maybe even consider a doubl-ended miso whisk - each side is a separate measurement and you scoop it up and just whisk it in! No chopsticks or spoons needed 🤷🏽♀️
Hi Nagasaki-san - with regard to sharpening your knives you used a sharpening stone - these are good for flat knives - but for a knife with a sharp edge you would be better using a "sharpening steel" - Knife Sharpener Rod, 33.02 cm Carbon Steel Professional Knife Sharpening Steel - you can purchase them from any hardware store - or second hand shop - or on line - they are not expensive about 500 yen and are excellent for knife with sharp edge to stay sharp. Great Video today - lets continue to do our best! Kind regards - John Perth, Australia
Hi! Thank you for your comment. I googled it and found out what it was! I thought it was expensive but feel relieved to hear it is not. Thanks to you, my cooking knowledge and skills are improving! I appreciate it ☺️.
Another great video. You start the day with coffee which I do as well. Great that you took up gardening it will give you great satisfaction when it starts bearing fruits. Miso soup is my favourite and alsways have it in the pantry. In the winter or generaly when I dont feel well it is like medicine for me. I never knew you can fry lotus root. I always boil it. You have million dollar views! If I can make one sugestion. Do a mention of your guide business in description bellow your videos. That might make people that plan to visit Nagasaki boook you. Cheers
I've just realized that boiling is as good as, or even better than, frying with oil! I'll try it next time 😆. Thank you for your advice! Now that the channel has many subscribers, I should prepare my descriptions. I'll do it soon! I really appreciate your comment. Thank you so much! ☺️
My family and I enjoy watching your videos! We've been watching for a while now. Today... I finally subscribed! If possible, would you make a video, while going up into the mountains of Nagasaki? Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for subscribing! Does 'the mountains' refer to literal mountains or just one of the sloping areas? Anyway, I will create a video of me climbing up the stairs!😆
На мой взгляд, домашний огород это здорово. У меня его нет, так как живу в многоэтажном доме, но бабушки с первых этажей разводят сад вокруг дома, это мило) я же дома вырастил много комнатных растений, стало очень уютно. Ещё хотел похвалить , что добавляете кофе в землю, моя бабушка тоже так делает, вроде бы это помогает от паразитов и растения растут лучше) Кстати, недавно я купил семена сакуры, надеюсь они взойдут и через пару лет я смогу посадить их возле дома, чтобы наслаждаться в будущем ее цветением)
Здравствуйте! Я рада слышать, что закапывать использованную кофейную гущу в поле - это хорошо. Я так и делала, не зная, хорошо это или плохо. Вы купили семена вишневого дерева, верно? Я надеюсь, что когда-нибудь расцветут прекрасные вишневые цветы.
@@life_in_nagasaki да, вишневое дерево) я тоже очень надеюсь, что они прорастут. у нас мало садят таких растений, обычно вокруг только дубы, березы, клены и куча тополей, а цветущих деревьев почти нет. если росточки появятся я вам расскажу)
Hello Nagasaki San, just finished watching this video. My Mum and I really enjoy your content, it’s nice and relaxing. Nagasaki looks so clean. I would like to try making some homemade Miso Soup one day - just need to get all of the ingredients! You seem to keep your life stress free and relaxed. 😊
Oh hello! Thank you very much for the Ukrainian subtitles! I watched the video and thought that it would be interesting to compare the "cost of the grocery basket". But we only sell enoki, tofu, brown rice, vegetables... I can't imagine how natto tastes, and the miso that we sell is too different from what you have in the video, I think it affects the taste a lot and you can't compare. Also, we don't have lotus root and various things for cooking "dashi". By the way, enoki are rarely sold in our country, we like porcini mushrooms the most. Have you ever tasted porcini mushrooms?
Yeah, absolutely! I will tell you how much it costs in the next video!! I think I have never eaten or seen porcini, but I believe we can get it in some specialty stores 😆. By the way, I want to try some Ukrainian local food someday!
Enjoying more of your everyday life in beautiful Nagasaki. Suggestions: A little bit of salt or shoyu goes well with fried renkon. And, watching you slice, I'm worried about your fingertips! Do you know the usual Japanese method of curling the fingers of your left hand? Very good for safety. If the object doesn't sit firmly, you can make a thin (horizontal) cut so it will sit flat on the board.
Thank you for your comment and suggestion! ☺️ I was also worried about my fingertips when I was watching my video 😅. Yes, I know the methods, and I'll make sure to use them next time!
Olá!amigo adorei o vídeo de hoje gosto de tudo q vc faz obrigado por mostra e muito bom hoje vc brilhou como sempre 🌟🌟👏👏só uma pergunta como e o seu nome?um grande abraço 🤗👋
Hello and thank you for the great videos. I love Japan and I really enjoy watching your videos. Please keep going. A good idea 👍🏼 would be to go to restaurants and make videos about the many great dishes they have there. I have a question please! Since it's a bit hard to get hold of Niboshi in Europe, could I also use (and this is important now) frozen anchovies? Or just dried ones??? I've been looking for this answer but haven't found anything. I would be very grateful for an answer. I wish you the best of luck 🍀
Hi! Thank you for watching and loving Japan! Yes, I'm planning to create a video introducing restaurants and the food culture in Nagasaki once my subscribers reach around 10,000 📝. As for using frozen anchovies, sorry, I'm not sure... I tried googling "can we use anchovies for Dashi?" in Japanese but couldn't find a clear answer. The fastest and easiest way might be to just try it and see..? . I hope you can find the answer! Sorry I couldn't be more helpful 🙏.
@@life_in_nagasaki Hello, sorry for the late reply. Just the fact that you answered me "even without having found a result for my answer" makes me incredibly happy. I really wish you all the best and much success in your projects. Hope to meet you one day. That would be an honor for me. Greetings with honor. Mario
Vous aviez dit que vous achèterez un meuble pour votre autocuiseur et micro-ondes? 🤔 plus vous y mettez du temps au plus vous en prendrez l'habitude ainsi 😊
