ハワイに住んでみて驚いた事　What is surprising in Hawaii? - Duration: 7:17.

Happy New Year!

I got sick already this year.

Today, I am going to talk about things that I was surprised after living in Hawaii.

First of all,

Never been punctual.

People living in hawaii are not on time regardless of public like the bus.

For example, if a dinner starts at 6:00,

people come around 7:00.

Then, the dinner will start around 7:30.

Always like this.

So, if you really wanna start a dinner at 6:00,

you have to tell people that the dinner starts at 5:00,

so come over by 5:00.

Or they won't come by 6:00.

Well... this is good thing of Hawaii that is not bound by time.

Next,

Never used umbrellas.

In Japan, people do not want their makeup to come off

or they do not want their hair to get messy

and of course, they do not want to get wet,

so they use an umbrella even in light rain.

However, in Hawaii,

Even if it buckets down, people do not use an umbrella.

I use an umbrella, when it's raining,

because I don't want to get wet

and inside of every building is super cold,

so I use umbrella to avoid to get wet.

But if I use an umbrella in light rain,

I feel embarrassed if I'm the only one using it.

Do you guys know Jesus slippa?

This is it!

In Hawaii, I see this everywhere,

any you can buy anywhere in Hawaii.

This is really comfortable and you never get tired,

so a lot of people wear it.

When I first saw this, I got surprised.

I thought these are toilet slippers

and the person who wore these forgot to switch her shoes in a bathroom.

But now, I got used to Hawaiian style,

I wear these everyday!

Everything is expensive.

Very expensive.

I think vegetables are most expensive

Since Hawaii is an island,

Most of things are shipped and imported from mainland or other countries,

so the shipping cost makes everything expensive.

For poor,

foods are the most important for our lives,

but I am stingy with even food

because it's expensive ( and I'm poor).

I just came back from shopping~

How much does it cost to buy these?

The answer is

$ 27.05

If I spent $ 3 more, it would be $ 30.

Only buying these costs $30...

Next,

even though Hawaii is expensive

Welfare is pretty good.

My husband is a student,

and we have a baby.

But, my husband can get scholarship from government,

and he receives $5000 a year.

And he doesn't need to pay back.

So it is really helpful.

Also, when I got pregnant,

I applied for WIC,

and we get some food for free every month.

Fruits or veggies for $11

Bottle of juice

Canned fish, cereal, egg

Yogurt, peanuts butter,

Soymilk, Tofu,

Cheese, dried beans

tortillas, and so on.

Furthermore,

medical costs are expensive.

Mediquest is an insurance and has some branches

and I got Aloha Care from amongst that.

And, medical fee is free.

The hospital bills were free when I gave birth, and doctor bills were also free.

So it was really helpful.

And then,

After giving birth, we got Foodstamps

It will give you $300 each month

with a card like a credit card.

You can use it most of stores,

and you can buy food for $300 every month.

so I am so grateful for those supports.

Becasue of them, we can live even though we are poor

Becasue we have good welfare support,

even poor people can live.

Card looks like this.

You can use it like a credit card.

You just swipe it at a casher.

Finally,

Drivers license is really cheap!

In japan, it costs around $2000~3000,

I got it for $1900.

I want to get Hawaii license,

so I got permit recently.

I paid only $5 for paper test!

And the road test is around $10.

Drivers license is $ 20 for younger than 25 years old for 4 years.

For 25 years old and older is $40 for 8 years.

So different from Japan.

There is no school like in Japan,

you practice on the real road.

Those are things made me surprised in Hawaii.
