The other nice thing is that my 6yo son is allowed to join, for security reasons he can't play but he is allowed to do the scoring when we play matches at the end.
The ladies are fond of him and mom can have some free time, it's a win-win.

Some photos of the volleyball tournament. "My" team is the one wearing dark blue jerseys.
Long story short one coworker invited me to join their weekly training earlier this year. Obviously I can join for practice but as a man I'm not an official member.

Tomorrow I'll wake up early to cheer for my ママさんバレー team.
I call that advanced-level integration, and it should instantly unlock permanent residency.

Almost two years have passed since we moved to Japan. It's been almost a year since I broke ties with my social network. But now I feel I can come back.

Petite question pour les français, je dois déclarer mes impôts sur l'année 2024 qui est l'année où j'ai quitté la France pour le Japon. Est-il nécessaire d'ajouter une note d'observation pour l'administration? De ce que j'ai compris je dois déclarer ce j'ai perçu entre le 1er janv et mon départ.

Not really sure about that wording....

So many times people ask me for help in organizing their trip to Japan, but they don't realize that I don't have any pro tip that will magically make them travel the way they want to.

Y a aussi le film "Macross the Movie: Do you remember love" si tu veux une ambiance plus '80s/Top Gun

My level of japaneseness is not enough, I still hop on the wrong train that goes beyond my station. 🥲

I remembered saying to my wife "anything except Shinji and the 5th Angel"

Bon anniversaire et je te souhaite que du meilleur pour la suite.

It's 50% off so やるしかない mode is ON. Which one do you think I will get ?

Félicitations ! J'ai lu une fois que tu voulais te débarrasser de tes livres si ce n'est pas déjà fait je veux bien les récupérer.

あけましておめでとうございます！
昨年は引っ越しがあったので、あまりメッセージを送りませんでした。
でも、2024年の年末にはいろいろいいことがあったので、2025年はもっといい年にしましょう！

Happy New Year !
I've been a bit absent from BlueSky this year, as moving to Tokyo and starting a new life here has been quite challenging, but thank God I'm on better footing now, so I'll be checking in here from time to time.
Let's make 2025 a better year for ourselves and everyone around us.

Good luck to those commuting during this heatwave 🔥🗼

Believe it or not, during my N3 exam today, one guy managed to get a red card at the end of the listening session. At that point the exam was over and the test papers were returned, but he took out his mobile phone even though he was warned not to.

The N3 exam is over, so the late nights studying Japanese in my little free time is over. Let's move on to the next goal.
