I would like to get a tattoo in Hawaii.
(Smaller tattoo)

Do you have any recommendations for a reliable studio that is clean and changes the needles properly each time?


By the way, I would be more than happy to have staff who can speak Japanese !.

I have a question for landlords . Even if I have a Japanese vaccine passport, I still need to take the PCR test ?
In that case, can I only take it at a hospital designated by the state of Hawaii? ? I'm not sure if it's possible to get to Okinawa. Also, since Hokkaido and Okinawa are not connected by land, do you know if I can go back to Okinawa right away after 3 days of waiting in a hotel ? I guess I should have asked the Hawaii Travel Bureau ?.

While my mother is under mandatory quarantine here in Corona due to her illness,
I have to return to Japan temporarily on short notice,
the airfare is higher than I expected
I would like to ask those who have flown with zip air, which has lower prices, for reference.

I found out that there are additional charges for checked baggage and carry-on luggage. I think it would be convenient because there are now some packages that include checked baggage and meals as part of the package.
I was wondering if there is any inconvenience because the price is so cheap
or if the arrival point is far away
or if the airline is not good for forced quarantine
or any other information that would be good to know when choosing .
I have lived in Hawaii for 15 years now and return home every year
and recently it has always been Hawaiian.
Hawaiian does not match our itinerary and price this time
I am also considering zip Air.
I haven't been back to Corona for 2 years and don't know anything about the new airline, so I thought I'd post this in case there is anything I can do.

please do let me know.

I am just returning home using Zip Air.

I chose this airline because the price was more reasonable than other airlines. I decided to purchase Zip Air because the price was more reasonable than other airlines and I also considered the cost of the PCR test required to enter Japan internationally and to return to Hawaii.


The Zip Air counter was located near the JAL counter and Hawaii Airline staff assisted us with check-in.
On the plane, there are no monitors on the seats
so you might want to bring your own iPad or something. The seats are not equipped with monitors, so you might want to bring your own iPad, but the Wi-Fi was free
so I spent my time messaging my family and surfing the net.
No drinks were served, only meal offerings and a small bottle of water. After getting off the plane, I had to sit in a chair and wait for almost an hour to submit my documents before the PCR test, but since I had only had a small bottle of water for in-flight use, it was very difficult to spit it out.
It is better to drink as much water as possible on board.
The number of passengers was in the single digits, so the waiting time was not that long.
The arrival lobby was Terminal 1.

I am still in Japan, so I don't know about the return flight. If I don't know, I ask Zip Air Customer Service online, but they didn't give me a very good reply about the negative certificate.

It is a low-cost airline, so I don't think I should expect so much.

Thank you for your valuable experience. I am stunned that I am finally going to be quarantined 6 days from Hawaii
I guess I deserve it in case I brought a Corona to my family in Japan. Sure, you can ask questions at customer service. I also have a lot of uncertainties about the inspection when I return, so I will ask them. Thank you for everything. Please take care of yourself for the rest of your stay.

I was lucky that I was only quarantined at home for 14 days when I entered Japan about 2 months ago.
I thought that the number of infected people in Japan has been decreasing and the situation back home would gradually warm up, but with the appearance of the new Omicron mutant strain, things are getting tougher and tougher. The situation of entering Japan and returning to Hawaii changes every day, so I think it is very difficult for everyone to keep track.
I am also anxious to return to Hawaii safely.

I think you should register My SOS, Contact Confirmation App before you enter Japan, it will save you time as they will check if you have downloaded it properly after PCR inspection.
After that, a staff member explained how to use the app, but I hesitated because the desks next to each other were too close to each other. I think you should be careful during this time. During my stay, I am meeting people I want to meet while I am here. I don't know when I will be able to enter Japan again.
I know that there are people living in Hawaii who have not been able to return to Japan for many years.
Due to the new Omicron strain, it has become more difficult to enter Japan. I hope this new strain will not cause much damage, and I hope we will be able to enter and return to Japan soon as before.

What can you tell me about Snap(EBT card )?

Question

I would like to know if it can be used at the following stores in Honolulu.

★ Nijiya
★ Mitsuwa
★ Walmart
★ Hmart
★ 88 Pal Palu Supermarket(Korean Supermarket in Keamoku)
★ Palama
★ JJ Bakery
★ Liliha Bakery (not a restaurant, but a place to buy bread, coco puffs, etc)
★ Burg
★ Kulkul
★ Cake M
★ Long's
★ Walgreens
If you know of any other stores that you thought were available but were not, I would like to know the specific names.

I know that the EBT card cannot be used in restaurants, but can it be used in places that sell take-out that are not warm, such as the little sushi restaurant in Kapahulu ? Can't I use it because it is treated as prepared food ?

. ?
Can the balance be carried over to the next month or later ? or is it invalid if not used within the month ?

I will be receiving my card soon and wanted to know in advance. I wanted to know in advance.

Thank you very much for your help 🤲.

How long will Mr. Corona

> ask him about it, and he will suddenly come up with seniors and disabilities.
> People who work decently hard work hard to make ends meet with daily ingredients rather than sushi and cake.

I really felt that.
We get protection from the state through taxes collected from working people.
Don't you think we should first use it to buy the minimum amount of food we need to survive? If you are a sane person.

I happened to see a video on YouTube the other day, and I was on the verge of homelessness with my two children before, and I heard about food stamps
from a friend and did some research. However, I had a strange sense of pride, and in the end I managed to get by without assistance.
Looking back, I wish I had received food stamps because I was really struggling. That's what aid is for.
I still feel bad that I put my pride first and made my children live on
cup noodles and water for a few weeks, especially if they have children.
We should be grateful to receive them when we need them and work hard until the day comes when we don't need them.
This video made me proud of the pride that people have in those who are breaking free from receiving benefits forever💪

Lord

I was rude to those who are disabled and unable to work.

I think they deserve support from the government.

I know a person who lives with two adults

and receives support from the government, yet there are people who complain about the food rations

they receive and go to the extent of asking for it

and I just couldn't help but think of that person. I was overlapping with that person.

It would be nice if there were more places where EBT could be used.

Good luck.

Topic.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write to us.

My unemployment insurance benefits ended in September, and after that my income was only for one Social Security.

My job search hasn't been going so well with no contact from anyone, but I'm not going to give up.
If I can find a job, I think I can and should be able to live without assistance with Social Security and my salary, even though I am barely making ends meet as before.

Corona also has no shortage of causes for concern, such as the outbreak of Omicron stock, but I hope that you will take care of yourself and have a safe holiday season.

Thank you very much.

Aki. The purpose of the student visa is not to work in the first place.
It is not okay to have a deposit in a Japanese bank with a Japanese partner and it is income. It is a job online and in the US while residing in the US and Hawaii.
Student visa is not acceptable.

Even if you report it, the immigration office will not act on it.

Also, there is a possibility that the person who is working has a family situation and has obtained an
application that allows him to work 20 hours a week, so to say that he is
working illegally based on your own judgment would be an accusation.
You need to be sure that the person is working illegally.

So you are saying that it is ok for Omicron to spread in Japan.

I don't want such an idea in Hawaii either.

Lately, Hawaii is starting to head in the direction of expansion again, and the mayor says he won't
tighten regulations, but it's still creepy.

Japan has been very restrained, which is a step in the right direction.
If we wait a little longer, we'll get new mitigation measures.

The First Baptist Church of Honolulu at the corner of Pikoi St and Kinau St distributes food on weekday mornings. I don't know what day of the week it is, but I see people lining up on Pikoi St around 9am every weekday.

Foodpantry is not very good, to be honest.
The food they give me is different depending on the time, but they really help me out.
Recently, I received 30 eggs, though they were small in size.
Sometimes there are already damaged or very old ones in the package, so it is better to check well before eating.

There are walk-in restaurants where you can go without reservation, and others where you have to register in advance.

Walk-in locations usually have a large number of Chinese people. Please be careful, as many Chinese have bad manners, such as interrupting the queue.

It is not illegal to enter the country on a tourist visa and apply for a marriage green card, but
I have heard that it is a practice that the immigration authorities do not like.
I know someone who got a green card that way, and he said it took 8 years.
He said it would have taken a year or two if he had gone the right way, and he wished he hadn't cheated. Of course, he couldn't leave the U.S. until he got his visa.
I guess if you leave, you can't come back in because you overstayed.

My husband has an acquaintance who married a Mexican woman and she overstayed once
and it took her 7 or 8 years to get her visa
last year.

However, since you say you know someone who still has not applied for a green card,
I think it is different from these. I think the rough way to look at it is that even if they did apply, they would probably be rejected.
You are overstayed from the very beginning of your application, and the worst that can happen is deportation. ?
In any case, if you cheat, you will be in a lot of trouble.

Even if you overstay, you will not be deported if you get a commitment to marry an American. Of course, you will have to pay for legal defense, etc. I think the person who took 8 years to get off is a special case. Long time overstayers have gotten green cards within a few years of marriage.

Dear Landlord. Thank you for your advice. We also thought that 01 would be good. Or 04.
We are not sure about 09 because it seems to be too hot in the west. The view is not important. The layout is bedrooms on both sides of the living room. Where we want to put emphasis is on rooms that don't get too much sooty dust from the cars in Kalakaua, and we would like rooms that don't get the west sun.
02 and 03 have one living room opening, but I wonder if the rooms are dark ?
01 has two windows, bright and seems ideal.
I would like to see the apartment, but there are not many for sale at the moment, and I would be
grateful for your advice.
