    I haven't personally done it myself, but there's this YouTube video that seems to walk through the process step by step! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szmHqnmRMoA

    Are you using a Japanese PayPal account? I tried linking a Japanese card to my Canadian PayPal and it wouldn't let me do that

    Same with PDecs, I think there is some kind of region lock.

    My advice would be to call PayPal customer care. They were really really REALLY helpful with linking my Japanese pp and my yuchou bank. They had an English staff. My acc was also locked mistakenly and they helped with that too. They even gave me some yennies for the trouble.

    As far as I know you need a Japanese Paypal account (settings to English language is helpful for the technical vocab) and setting up your bank account here should be easy. On the other hand, with my US account, I can't actually login unless I call customer service because of their security recognizing I'm not where my registered address is. I guess that's safe, just frustrating for those of us living abroad.

What do you MOST associate with Oita?

Seen as there was a good response to the same question for Ibaraki AND today is Oita Prefecture day (although they don't celebrate it), what is the first thing that comes to mind when I say "Oita Prefecture"? I have written a post about Oita Prefecture day with what I most associate with it, but I won't write it here so as not to influence your answer, but you can read the post here; https://www.city-cost.com/blogs/BigfamJapan/Mnv34-living_oita

What do you MOST associate with Ibaraki?

Just for fun - what is the very first thing that comes to mind when I say Ibaraki prefecture? Today, is Ibaraki prefecture day and when I was choosing what photo to use for the feature photo, one place came to mind instantly. I don't want to influence your answer so I won't mention it here, but you can check it out in the article: https://ww2.city-cost.com/blogs/BigfamJapan/GReVv-living_ibaraki_ushiku_shi_ibaraki

Japanese names you love?

I blogged yesterday about this year's top baby names in Japan, and there was quite a focus on nature and calmness in the most popular picks. I was wondering if there are any Japanese names you love for the meaning behind them. Maybe you have a friend, coworker, or even family member with a beautiful name. I'd be happy to hear what it is, and why you like it so much!

How often do you use chopsticks?

I have just written about "Chopstick Day". The second "Chopstick day" of the year! I am curious; how often do you use chopsticks? For every meal? Once a day? With certain meals only? Occasionally? Never!?
