A friend of mine did the same thing and returned to Hawaii over a year after leaving her belongings in Kaimuki storage and her car with someone. When he returned, he couldn't find a place to live
He was in Hawaii for a few weeks on a shared basis and ended up leaving, throwing away more than half of the clothes and other things he left in storage. I was also crying because I had more miles on my car than I needed to drive it around where I left it.
It cost us TOTAL thousands of dollars.
Bottom line is, it's easier to sell off your stuff at Vivinavi, throw away what you can't sell, sell your car at Vivinavi, and become one body for the next life.

Thank you for sharing your friend's story. It is true that if the return trip is prolonged, the cost may be unnecessarily high. I will think that over again before making a decision. Thank you very much.

＃ 4 min Mr.
I am glad to hear a review from someone who has actually used it.
I am relieved to hear that the pest control seems to be in place if the storage is well managed.
However, I had not thought about the possibility of closing the business, so I will have to reconsider. It must have been very hard to move the storage in a limited time, thank you very much. Thank you for the details regarding the car as well. I am also worried about theft and batteries, so I would like to leave my car in a safe place even if it is a little more expensive.
Thank you very much for your help. Thank you very much.

I buy mine at Sam's.

The receptionist is English, but the medical interview asks if you take any medications, but you can fill out the form online in advance.
The pre-test is in simple English, such as "chin up".

The optometrist is a Japanese American and understands simple Japanese.
No.1 and No.2 are only words like which is easier to see ？ or
Read this character ～, so I always ask for Sams.

Optometry fees are covered if you have insurance.
I am about $ 60 because of my age and I get glaucoma, cataracts, intraocular pressure, etc. seen together I order my contacts from the glasses section next door, but
they give me a prescription and I can also buy them by mail order.

If you have insurance, your contact purchase will be covered.

I have also purchased from other ophthalmologists,
the prices are very different.

I made a comment yesterday, but it seems to have disappeared, so I will make it again.
As explained in the following site, US passport holders can enter Korea for 90 days without a visa, no K-ETA required.

If so, then the insurance coverage varies from policy to policy, but it does not mean that you have to pay the full amount of your own insurance.
Full co-pay is for people who do not have insurance, for example.
There are usually three types of insurance, （ a doctor ） who is like the first clinic you see when you decide on a family doctor,
ophthalmology, and dentistry, so if you are living here, which one is the insurance you want to buy?
And by insurance that you can get in Japan, do you mean travel insurance or something like that ？
（ Travel insurance had a duration or something, right? ）
I don't know what you want to use the insurance for, so I think it is difficult to answer your question
if you don't have a clear idea of what you intend to use the insurance for.

You say "enrolled in the US," but the insurance situation is quite different between Hawaii and the mainland US, so I don't think we can have a blanket discussion about the US.
I have HMSA's Medicare Advantage ™ (PPO ™) insurance here in Hawaii, but usually a family doctor, specialist, or even a dentist will see you first and send you a bill afterwards that takes your insurance coverage into consideration. Lab tests （ X － Ray or blood tests ） also get billed later. As far as I know, the only people who have to pay the full amount out-of-pocket at the time of the medical exam are those who do not have insurance here, as Halo mentioned.
For travelers from Japan who have travel insurance when they leave Japan, I think it is common for them to pay the full amount here at one time and receive payment for the portion covered by their insurance after they return home. However, there are some travel abroad insurance policies that sell "cashless ・ medical services," so in the case of such policies, you will not have to pay the co-payment.

Thanks for the detailed explanation.
I understand now. I am relieved to know that my employer will provide HMSA insurance and I will be charged the amount after the insurance coverage.
I was suddenly concerned when I heard someone say that even if you have HMSA or other insurance provided by the company, you have to pay the full amount once you get it. If that is not the case, I am relieved. Thank you for your response.

It depends on whether it is short term or long term, as well as negotiations with the real estate company, but I think 10% ～ 20% of the monthly rent is typical if you ask for property management. Ours is 10% for a lease of six months or more, but I think 20% is more common for vaqueroan management. In Hawaii, if you live out of state （ including returning to Japan ）, you need to manage your property with a management company in Hawaii, but if you manage it yourself, you do not need to pay monthly property management fees. If you manage your own property, you do not need to pay monthly property management fees. When you add tenants, you will need to pay a one-time tenant introduction fee, but in many cases, you do not need to go through a real estate agency if you manage your own property. If you manage the property yourself, you will be responsible for any eviction, so there is a higher risk involved. Also, if you rent the property, the tax rate will change, GET will be charged, and HOA will also affect your profit margin.

I think the Braun Oral-B is the only choice.
The last few versions are compatible with foreign voltages and have many attachments.
I plan to replace mine next year, but it is a great series.

A friend of mine uses Dupixent and I asked him about it and he said he gets it prescribed by a dermatologist named Dr. Ryan Sato. He said his friend's insurance is HMSA. He said that without insurance it would cost him $1,000 a bottle, and that he has a friend who has Kiser insurance and gets his prescriptions from other doctors. Sorry I don't know the details as it is not my own, but I hope I can be of some help.

Thanks for the useful information. I am just glad to know the fact that I can actually get it in Hawaii.
Thank you for even telling us what type of insurance you have. I was really wondering how to get it after I come to the US, since it is a special medicine that is not yet recognized.
I will use this as a reference.

My son used them until last year.
Both hospital and insurance are Kaiser.
They won't give you ointment or drink medicine without test results that don't work, so if you are still in Japan and it is possible,
I think it would go smoothly if you get your current certificates and test results from your doctor.

The cost is about $ 700 for 3 months of one injection every 2 weeks, self-injection.
The reason I stopped was because my son got married and was told that it could affect his children if he continued.
I have now changed to UV treatment.

I myself have been in Hawaii for 30 years, but
in Japan, it was so bad that I got Zurumuke.
but in Hawaii, I feel better
because of the climate, humidity and clean air.
But my son was fine as a child, but it started to get worse when he was in high school.

Dupixent was developed in the U.S., so I think you can get a prescription from a dermatologist.
But it is expensive.

Thank you for your valuable experience. I will try to prepare the certificate of prescription in Japan. I often hear that symptoms improve under Hawaiian environment.
I hope it will be the same for me ・ ・ ・.
For 3 months' worth ＄ 700, certainly not cheap.
I will be happy to help.
