It really bugs me when people say 'british' accent. There is no such thing :P
There is english, irish, welsh, and scottish and then thousands of dialects, even a few different languages. It's like saying I have a european accent because I'm from england :P
@Gimmeaflakeman yeh i guess not :) I suppose it's what you're used to. Like when I was a kid I couldn't tell the difference between black people (no homo) but as I hung out with a lot of indians I could differentiate between them.
English food isn't amazing, but it's not bad.. and despite being in Asia for the last 14 months, most of the best Asian food I've ever had was back in the UK.
Thumps up for England. Anyways we have some good food, nothing beats a good bread and butter puding unless you don't like rasons or sultarna's lol and before any one says any thing i care if some of my spelling might be wrong.
Service in Spain sucks, the siesta is not true. A siesta should be 15-20 minutes and never 2-3 hours. thats absurd. I dont know anybody that takes siestas btw.this girl
Thanks for this video. It was very interesting to get a Japanese person's perspective on what it is like when they are the gaijin. She seems like a nice person and I am glad she had a good time overall living in another nation.
Ale is usually warm but not always. The main difference between ale and lager is the types of yeast used for fermentation and the length of time in fermenting them so you end up with quite different kinds of beer.
I hated the tube. It's really bad. The trains are very small, they go too fast (sounds good, but it can get very jumpy) and most importantly, most of the ticket machines don't accept notes!

Whoa, I'm from Valencia, and I agree with Ayako. Food here is pretty good, customer service sucks compared to Japan's and some people are just noisy idiots who discriminate others. Of course, not everyone's the same, there are nice people here too. Too bad Ayako left with a kinda bad impression ;_; I can't wait to move to Japan.
(Also, I don't even take siestas. Oh, and walking is strictly prohibited.)
The way they yell in the Izakaya's (sp?) reminded me of the chain in the US "Waffle House", or "Omlette Shop". Also similar in that they have a bar where patrons can sit or booths. I wonder if the chain was started by someone who adopted that trend from Japan?
I liked her insight about the old buildings and culture. I like architecture as well. And not all Americans cities treasure their history. Orlando Florida tears down anything old.
@stilldexter2999 Yea, hear in Tampa the city is trying conservation and restoration efforts with central Ybor. During the construction of Interstate 4 most of it was demolished and it wasn't untill the early 1980s when Tampa started to conserve that historic neighborhood.

Lmfao, what a statement! Presumptuous, narcissistic, arrogant, homosexual, and racist much? (boasting, implying Japan has no attractive men & that all Japanese women automatically have a thing for white men) SMH
@BLUDDYknucklez From my understanding of his character, I don't think he meant to say that Japanese has a lack of attractive men compared to Spain. I think he just wanted to ask if she liked the men in Spain as they're sterotyped as being handsome and that there are only few Spanish male in Japan.
Yes ,thank you. My comment had nothing to do with Japanese men. "Latin lovers" have a reputation. Man, you can't make an off-the-hand comment without everyone reading RACiSM into it. Jeez.
@Gimmeaflakeman Well sometimes off-hand comments are more honest.

(part 3) northern Ireland. Alot of old stone cottages are this age where I live. The local churches are 600 years old, 300 and 200 years old, but there is a modern church built in the 80's, I believe it's baptist.
Many thanks for the video! I found it interesting to get a travellers point of view of Europe, more so England. London is very different than most of England. The culture and general lifestyle varies from region to region, even though the country is soo small.
(part 2) local ingredients. Water, hops, barley and yeast. Some ales are servd slightly warmer or colder. For example, a "pale ale" is a light ale designed to convert lager drinkers to real ale, as it is healthier than lager or beer. It is served colder to minimise the flavour and make the transition easier for the drinker. Real ale also is not sparkling, it is pumped by hand and not gas assisted. This in turn creates a truer flavour.
On a different note, my home is 300 years old (N. Ireland..
I worked in a real ale pub for a few years. The temperature of ale depends on the temperature of the cellar, it's usually colder than room temperature, around 10-13 degrees C. Lager is stuff like bud, miller, fosters, carlsberg..in japan it would be asahi etc.... And it is served cold as the flavour isn't as good. Larger uses alot of synthesised and poor quality ingredients as they are mass Market products. Real ale uses high quality, usually local.
English food is great if u have the money for an expensive place or u know where to go. I dont think we have anything worse than crappy food from any other country. And lager is cold here, Beer/Ale is traditionally room temperature, "warm" makes it sound like vomit lol, but a few years ago they started to do Ice cold Guinness and thats better than the normal one but older people prob disagree. Thx Victor and Ayako ^^
Lager is cold, Beer is warm :) but sometimes Bitter Ale is cold but only bitter i haven't really seen any other cold ales. I highly recommend you try Newcastle Brown Ale if you find it in some import store, it is from my hometown and it is amazing!!! drink it at room temp! lol
@lankyrunner6 I herd of them and seen them on the shelves here in California I think I'll buy both and try them out. allot of British and Australians live out here.
@Gimmeaflakeman Lager is brewed at a colder temperature usually below 60 deg. Fahrenheit. The yeast usually sinks to the bottom or near the bottom of the fermentation container. Ale is brewed at a warmer temperature and the yeast floats to the top of the fermentation container. At what temperature one serves the finished beer does not make it a lager or ale. My friend is a professional brewer at a micro brewery in California and I have learned quite a bit about the brewing process over the years
British, glad I read the comments because I didnt know what "lagger" is (LAR-ger) and I love my ales and I dont live in London but when I went I hated the tube too. Interesting video, Great accent
as aan english person it made me laugh so much when it was said that our indian is great, because we always have indian people slating it:P. Also the australian marmite is vegemite i think, my step dad is an aussie and he always brings it back when he visits or when his family visit us. It also made me luagh when she said school was cheap :L it's gonna cost me £9000 per year Also it's said lar-ger not lager

Japanese people like to go to Japanese restaurants in other countries --> My adoptive parents who are Indian like to do the same thing in other countries.
vegimite and marmite are more or less the same thing from what the Aussies told me. x____x" It tastes horrible! It was like salt with the consistancy and look of peanut butter ^^; Real lively folks in Australia though! And New Zealand is a retirement paradise-- the most gorgeous scenery and so peaceful... The folks there were so very nice and polite too :3
Your guest was amazing! Thank you so much for bringing her on. Her accent is rather cute too ^-^
That correction was actually an inside joke that only makes sense if you saw a video that even I cannot identify by name. (I've made too many!) But long story short, I shouldn't have corrected her.
use the pronoun I, along with other subjective pronouns such as we, he, she, you, and they, when the pronoun is the subject of a verb:
Clare and I are going for a coffee. In the last example, the pronoun I, together with the proper noun Clare, forms the subject of the sentence, so you need to use I rather than me.
Use the pronoun me, along with other objective pronouns such as us, him, her, you, and them, when the pronoun is the object of a verb:
I'mactually Polish but just one coment from oxford dictionery witch might help (sorry for spelling). please read those simple rules above so you dont say "police stoped my friend and I"
Dunno if anyone has said but the Australian version of Marmite is Vegemite.. I think of it as soy sauce concentrate. It's just a big punch of salt + umami, so if you want to try some for the first time spread some unsalted butter on a piece of toast and scrape a tiny bit of marmite/vegemite on it.
That was a fun, entertaining video. I enoyed hearing her interesting comments. It seems she is another example of a strong, independent woman. Well done.
Victor, building work for the Tube is never scheduled on weekdays because a lot more people use the Tube during the week to go to work, rather than at the weekend when most people are just going out.
By the way, we pronounce 'lager' as 'larger' (in all parts of the UK) :P
Great interview! It's interesting to hear Ayako's experiences. The UK is a big melting pot of cultures these days, & the food is from all over the world, Chinese,Indian and Italian are really popular. In Europe 100 years isn't old for a building, I grew up in one that was 500 years old, and currently live in a normal terraced house that is around a 100. I wish Ayako all the best for her stay in the UK and love her cute accent! Marmite Rulez! & the troop of Japanese tourists, So True!
real ale is served at cellar temperature, which is a bit cooler than room termperature, like 55F. Larger is served a bit more chilled. I'm not sure about Guinness or bitter, both popular drinks in pubs.
English food is not terrible Victor! its not the most fancy cuisine but its good to eat! Plus you can get everything in England. Within 5 minutes of my house there are three Indian restaurants, a Japanese restaurant, a Chinese takeaway, and three fast food places (fried chicken, pizza, burger type food). A couple of miles down the road is a mile long stretch of south Asian (Indian food) restaurants and takeaways. Manchester is crazy for food.
She speaks good English and she has a lovely accent.
@Gimmeaflakeman no, the fast food I mentioned isn't English. (one of the fast food places is actually called the Canadian grill, although its not really Canadian either) I was giving examples to back up my statement that you can get everything in England ie whatever cuisine you want. Its all on offer.
There is also a fish and chip shop (chippie) and a pub restaurant which sells English food. Chips from a proper English 'chippie' simply can't be be beaten.
Haha... England is cute...! I appreciate your kindess, but come on... tell the truth :) And I agree with the tube stopping at the weekends - pain in the neck, huh? Not that the service is that great during the week either....
"My parents live in a super old building. Almost 100 years" 100 years isn't a lot. Generally in all of Europe 100 years is young. Personally I live in a house that's around 200+ years. Which is very normal. The US is a 'young' country.
The oldest countries in Europe would probably be (the countries in) Great Britain, Italy and France.
A great video and I would love to see more like this. She speaks English very well and I love her accent. Btw, have any of your other students approached you yet about a discount for continuing their studies with you?
I went to Japan on holydays and i really liked when people screamed "Irashaimase". We laughed a lot with my friend, remembering the time when 3 different people screamed it one after the other : "irashaimase", then another one "irashaimase", then someone we couldn't see, far away "IRASHAIMASE". This last one was very loud. I think it was the chef in his kitchen.
I don't know, i really felt welcome. That's why i like it . ... Plus it is funny.
lmfao the tube service here is shite excuse my japanese lol ive only taken the thing once, , imagine a tin pack full of sardines but with people on a train standing up with nowhere to move or sit down, plus its super noisy you can hear the rails screeching and everything!! i do not recommend!!!!!!!!
In regards to British beer; lager is meant to be cold, whether it be in a can, or from the tap at a bar. But ale is sort of down to personal preference. Most pubs keep it in the coolers and what not, but you can get them room temperature if the place you're at don't chill them. I've never had warm ale and i'm a UK resident, might just be the places in London lol.
The difference between lager and ale is the brewing process. Lager is brewed at a cooler temperature than ale, and is generally left to ferment for a shorter period of time than ale, which is why ale generally tends to have a richer taste. Ale isn't really warm, per se, I'd say it's cool, while lager is cold.
I was actually surprised to see how old things were in Japan. I had the image of Tokyo of being super-new, everything neon signed and everything...BUT I was kind of surprised to find that every second house is really old and almost falling onto the street.
For instance. There is a really old building on Asakusa Dori in Ueno that was leaning towards the street.
Search for Asakusa Dori on Google maps, face towards the east and check out the really small building on the right side a few yards in.
HAH The way you say lager at the end is hilarious :D Ale is never "warm" as such, but not really cold either. It's served at room temperature, which isn't particularly warm in the UK. In fact, for beer it's even colder because ale isn't served at room temperature, as in, the temperature of the bar, but at the temperature in the unheated cellar which is even colder than that. Warm ale wouldn't be very nice.
When I've been in Japan last year, a Japanese woman encountered my mother, my sister and me with French. So I guess, not all Japanese think all foreigners are Americans. ;)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Well that was a load of bullshit
Everyone taking 5 hours naps, Nasty manners,unkind people? The girl missed out, but she was 2 years sucking it out from spanish public money, that is how she made out 2 years there, but just 6 months in uk. Sure i will get same in japan
La chinita no se entero de la pelicula
So she was 2 years in Spain and can't speak a word, i see how she got it all wrong.
LOL! Lot of pent up anger in there, son. If it makes you feel any better, I know people who have lived in the USA more than 20 years and still can't speak English and I know people in Japan who've been here longer than me and still can't speak Japanese. You know what? They get along fine. How does it feel to be so subjectively judgmental there, btw. You got a big righteous one?
@Gimmeaflakeman ...."and I know people in Japan who've been here longer than me and still can't speak Japanese" well from an alien isolated point of view is Hard to consider any of the statements pointed out in the video by this girl as valid due to the lack of judgment and integration over the 2 years she stayed in Valencia. Should i gently accept the laxitude of her almost insulting missconceptions over my country? Like 3 to 5 hours of siesta? that is crazy ignorance...whet if

@Gimmeaflakeman "How does it feel to be so subjectively judgmental there, btw" exactamente, subjetivo fue todo lo que dijo esta muchacha, falso simple, because it does not honour the truth, that is subjective and i can judge what i know, can you judge what you don't?
Here you has something far more objective that can be depicted and substantiated all across your videos, you are a loud mouth a failing swagger a gullible fool, and you got it all on tape! That is A truth.
@Gimmeaflakeman Sure it builds you litle ego not get whacked that often in Japan, but come saving the day when my reaction is perfectly normal. 'Cause i won't be the one doing those "professor emeritus" dissertations over a subject with such lack of understanding furthermore when they lead not only to fake but to an offensive description. And that it's judgment yours: "subjectively judgmental there, btw. You got a big righteous one?"
@japaneseformorons feeling lazy already? many words together?? Come on you should get used to large compound-complex sentences. Despite some minor punctuation isues here and there, i think that if you are keen enough you can distill something out of the words i wrote.
Actually I honestly get nothing from your posts except that you are angry about something. And this anger has made you incoherent. Perhaps you should ask yourself what has made you so angry? Did a Japanese girl reject you? Did you recently suffer some unhappiness? Or, as I already mentioned, are you simply insane?
Or you could be trolling. But incoherent trolls are boring. if you're going to bring it, bitch, then bring it, but bring it coherently.
hey tu nos llamaste idiotas que malo eres!!

Hi, a few answers/comments on the video.
I worked in a real ale pub for a few years. The temperature of ale depends on the temperature of the cellar, it's usually colder than room temperature, around 10-13 degrees C. Lager is stuff like bud, miller, fosters, carlsberg..in japan it would be asahi etc.... And it is served cold as the flavour isn't as good. Larger uses alot of synthesised and poor quality ingredients as they are mass Market products. Real ale uses high quality, usually local.

Lager is cold, Beer is warm :) but sometimes Bitter Ale is cold but only bitter i haven't really seen any other cold ales. I highly recommend you try Newcastle Brown Ale if you find it in some import store, it is from my hometown and it is amazing!!! drink it at room temp! lol

@Gimmeaflakeman Lager is brewed at a colder temperature usually below 60 deg. Fahrenheit. The yeast usually sinks to the bottom or near the bottom of the fermentation container. Ale is brewed at a warmer temperature and the yeast floats to the top of the fermentation container. At what temperature one serves the finished beer does not make it a lager or ale. My friend is a professional brewer at a micro brewery in California and I have learned quite a bit about the brewing process over the years

In the last example, the pronoun me, together with the proper noun John, forms the object of the verb follow, so you need to use me rather than I.
Use the pronoun me, along with other objective pronouns such as us, him, her, you, and them, when the pronoun is the object of a preposition:
Rose spent the day with Jake and me.
Me, together with Jake, forms the object of the preposition with, so you need to use the pronoun me rather than the pronoun I.

Dunno if anyone has said but the Australian version of Marmite is Vegemite.. I think of it as soy sauce concentrate. It's just a big punch of salt + umami, so if you want to try some for the first time spread some unsalted butter on a piece of toast and scrape a tiny bit of marmite/vegemite on it.

Victor, building work for the Tube is never scheduled on weekdays because a lot more people use the Tube during the week to go to work, rather than at the weekend when most people are just going out.
By the way, we pronounce 'lager' as 'larger' (in all parts of the UK) :P

real ale is served at cellar temperature, which is a bit cooler than room termperature, like 55F. Larger is served a bit more chilled. I'm not sure about Guinness or bitter, both popular drinks in pubs.

English food is not terrible Victor! its not the most fancy cuisine but its good to eat! Plus you can get everything in England. Within 5 minutes of my house there are three Indian restaurants, a Japanese restaurant, a Chinese takeaway, and three fast food places (fried chicken, pizza, burger type food). A couple of miles down the road is a mile long stretch of south Asian (Indian food) restaurants and takeaways. Manchester is crazy for food.

@Gimmeaflakeman no, the fast food I mentioned isn't English. (one of the fast food places is actually called the Canadian grill, although its not really Canadian either) I was giving examples to back up my statement that you can get everything in England ie whatever cuisine you want. Its all on offer.
There is also a fish and chip shop (chippie) and a pub restaurant which sells English food. Chips from a proper English 'chippie' simply can't be be beaten.

"My parents live in a super old building. Almost 100 years" 100 years isn't a lot. Generally in all of Europe 100 years is young. Personally I live in a house that's around 200+ years. Which is very normal. The US is a 'young' country.
The oldest countries in Europe would probably be (the countries in) Great Britain, Italy and France.

This last one was very loud. I think it was the chef in his kitchen.

In regards to British beer; lager is meant to be cold, whether it be in a can, or from the tap at a bar. But ale is sort of down to personal preference. Most pubs keep it in the coolers and what not, but you can get them room temperature if the place you're at don't chill them. I've never had warm ale and i'm a UK resident, might just be the places in London lol.

The difference between lager and ale is the brewing process. Lager is brewed at a cooler temperature than ale, and is generally left to ferment for a shorter period of time than ale, which is why ale generally tends to have a richer taste. Ale isn't really warm, per se, I'd say it's cool, while lager is cold.

I was actually surprised to see how old things were in Japan. I had the image of Tokyo of being super-new, everything neon signed and everything...BUT I was kind of surprised to find that every second house is really old and almost falling onto the street.
For instance. There is a really old building on Asakusa Dori in Ueno that was leaning towards the street.
Search for Asakusa Dori on Google maps, face towards the east and check out the really small building on the right side a few yards in.

HAH The way you say lager at the end is hilarious :D Ale is never "warm" as such, but not really cold either. It's served at room temperature, which isn't particularly warm in the UK. In fact, for beer it's even colder because ale isn't served at room temperature, as in, the temperature of the bar, but at the temperature in the unheated cellar which is even colder than that. Warm ale wouldn't be very nice.
