How do you store your shoes in your house in Hawaii where there is no shoe storage space in the foyer? It is a hassle to put them away and take them out when you need to use them, so I would like to know how you all do it.

I have consulted with two companies, but both were more expensive than I expected, and I would like to hear from people who have actually had their hair removed in the U.S.
I would appreciate any recommendations. If you have any recommendations, I would appreciate it if you could let me know.

Kinder examination

My daughter has been in preschool since this past August.
I would like to aim for Punahou or Iolani from Kinder now as the preschool does not have Kinder.

I would like to ask those who have recently been accepted to Punahou and Iolani
Which private school or tutor did you use?
I am looking for a lot of different ways to find a tutor,
Takahashi Juku used to have a high pass rate, but now …
it's not so easy to find one.

I would like to know the current situation, not just rumors, if anyone is attending Takahashi Juku.

Honda Educational Learning Partners, Quick stars, and Dr. Pam in Hawaii Kai also seem to be highly rated. I would like to know if you know of any tutors or tutoring services that you recommend or that have a high success rate. Thank you in advance

娘が高橋塾に行って、プナホウとイオラニに合格しました。隣に他の生徒がいて気が散ると言う心配をされていますが、実際の受験の時を考えるとその方が訓練になったと思います。ADHD持ちで、集中力にかなりムラがあるのですが、プナホウの受験の時に、グループに分かれてサークルになって作業するテストの時に、同じようなお友達でいつも一緒に騒いでいる子と同じグループになって、かなり心配しました。終わったー(涙)って思ったくらいです。　でも、合格発表されて、アポイントをとってから結果を聞きに行った時に、「隣のお友達が声をかけてきた時に、今はテストだから終わったらお話しようねって言っていた。とメモ書きされてます」と言われました。　泣きそうでした　笑
塗り絵も、これ本当に娘ですか？？？って聞いたくらい、まぁ本当に丁寧に綺麗に塗ってありました。　静かな環境で家庭教師とかだったら、うちの娘みたいなタイプは、きっと無理だったんじゃないかと思います。
プナホウとイオラニではかなりカラーが違うので、色々悩む時期だと思いますが頑張ってください！

Thank you ！
It is wonderful that your daughter was accepted to both schools. Congratulations.
I didn't know that there is a coloring book in the exam … I don't know anything about it
I am in a hurry to send her to the school as soon as possible to gather information and practice for the exam.
How long did your daughter attend Takahashi Juku ？ and how many times a week did she attend ？
Also, I would like to know if there are any practices or studies that would be good for her to do at home.
Sorry for all the questions ！

Excuse me for coming in from the side.
I too have submitted applications to both schools and
am considering submitting GE as well, while wondering if I should send my now 4 year old daughter to Kinder.
＃ 2 Sanae-san, it is amazing that your child was accepted to both schools. ？
We have only 2 months left until the entrance exam date, so it is too late to start cramming （ tears ）
Did you attend Takahashi cram school everyday ？
I have to admit that I started to consider the idea of cram school. （ I was in a hurry because the exam dates for both schools were set soon after I applied. ）
I would also like to know how and when you submitted your recommendation letters.
There was no place in the Revenna and MyPunahou applications to attach them, etc.

Topix ！ sorry for the flight ！

I just can't bring myself to move the yen right now because of the amazingly weak yen situation.
At the moment, I would like to buy a house in Japan to secure a place to stay in Japan, as I would like to live a hybrid lifestyle in the future.
In addition to the property tax in Japan,
are there any other taxes that would apply if I owned land in another country in the U.S. ？
Are there any documents that I need to obtain from the consulate or other authorities when I purchase a house in Japan?
Do I have to file a tax return with the IRS for deposits in Japan,
or do I have to file for land, houses, etc. ？
I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has had similar experiences, any problems, good or bad, etc.

> I just can't bring myself to move the yen right now because the weak yen situation is so great.

AI predictions say it will eventually reach 230 yen per dollar. If I don't move now, I will lose a lot of money.

> Do I have to declare my land, house, etc. ？

I heard that property tax in Japan was deductible in the US until a few years ago although I don't have to. I heard that if you rent out your house in Japan, you have to declare your rental income in the US.

>hybrid living

Do you have permanent residency in Japan? It would be miserable if you have a place to live in Japan but not the right to live there, like the Chinese who buy a bomb of Japanese real estate but cannot live in Japan.

Even if you have relatives and family in Japan, it is still uncomfortable to have them stay there all the time. Hotels are expensive.

（ LOL ） The yen has appreciated by about 20 yen compared to 2 months ago
If you spend your Japanese yen in Japan, the weak yen doesn't matter
If you want to convert your Japanese yen to dollars, now is a good time to do so
I wonder 。。。。
By the way, are you going to buy a house with cash ？ or is this just a dream for the next few decades ？ the laws will have changed by then.......no need to talk about it now.

About U.S. cell phone numbers that can receive SMS in Japan

Question
#1

  • 2024/08/08 08:39

I am looking for an American cell phone carrier
that allows me to receive SMS in Japan.
Let's share information here.

I'll start with
1)onesimcard's US mobile number for bank verification
https://www.onesimcard.com/cell-phone-accessories/usa-2-step-bank- verification-number/
It costs about $80 per year, but there are some banks
that do not accept it. For example, us bank will reject
your phone number if you register it.

2)tello
https://tello.com/
You can keep it for at least $5 a month.
But outside of US, only wifi calling is available.
When I went back to Japan temporarily, I couldn't even receive SMS.
I tried to contact tello, but they didn't give me a clear answer.
Is it a problem with my phone model?
Did you receive SMS in Japan?

That's all from me. Please let me know your
information too.

I think most other MVNOs are the same, but H2O wireless also has no contract, so you just can't use it when the plan you purchased expires, whether you pay monthly or annually.
If you can't use it anymore, you can purchase another plan and you can use it again with the same SIM.

I hadn't seen this since it turned into a rough thread, but I'm relieved that it is a constructive exchange of ideas.
H2O wireless confirmed. It looks good that international roaming is supported.

I was in Europe last week, and as for Tello, both phone calls and SMS were
OK with wificalling. However, it did not support international roaming. I wonder if wificalling is available in Japan.
It also supports eSIM, so I can continue it even after I go back to Japan.

It has been 2 years since I returned to Japan and I am still receiving 2-step verification SMS and SMS for bank and mutual fund accounts, Paypal, etc. via Google Voice without any problems.

I cancelled my cell phone in the U.S. when I returned to Japan, but in Japan I have a contract with Rakuten Mobile using the same iPhone, and since my Google Voice number is still active, I can receive the same SMS from both my registered email and the application.
I recently opened a new bank account for fund transfer during a business trip to the US as well, and I am also receiving 2-step verification for that.

Can anyone please give me some wisdom?

Because I bought the wrong airline tickets
I may not be able to make it
to the Dodgers game ＆ to watch the Dodgers game or to the distribution of the Ohtani Bobbleheads.
I hope to arrive at the airport at 2pm and be at the ballpark by 4pm. We will not be renting a car and will be moving by public transportation.
I have suitcases so I cannot go straight to the stadium
Lockers near Union Station are open until 5pm, so
pickup will be the next day.
I haven't gotten a hotel yet, so at worst I'll stay at a hotel near Union Station, but I'm trying to avoid staying near that area due to budget concerns.

We don't need to be there at 4pm since the doors open at 5pm to begin with ？
What is the best way or place to leave suitcases ？
What time can we leave the airport in the first place if we plan to arrive at 2pm ？
I could bring a knapsack at Angel Stadium （ but I need to check it in at the stadium ） but at Dodger Stadium ？
if it's possible, can I bring a change of clothes and leave my suitcase in the locker and pick it up the next day ？ or is that too much to ask?

Any advice or ideas?
