Hi there, Adventure Seekers!

Happy New Year! Okay. I know what you might be thinking…

But to me, the spring equinox marks a time of renewal and rebirth.

For many cultures around the world, this is when the new year actually begins. For example, Nowruz is the start of the new year celebrated from Iran to Afghanistan and beyond on the spring equinox. 

So, as spring ushers us into a new phase of life, I thought I'd reflect on five lessons I've learnt over the last year

I was surprised myself, but I decided to work as a Japanese teacher in Mongolia.

t takes 8 hours from Ulaanbaatar to drive on the grassland road.
My body is still shaking.

Classes start today.
Wahahaha.

Alexa, coming from Amazon, is a reliable presence that helps with everyday life through various conversations. However, I have no idea where did ALEXA study, she started to speak the Kansai dialect from time to time.

for example
"...Shirankedo (.,.I am not sure, but)"
ALEXA: "Hottoite! (Let me alone!)"
"I am not sure, but..."
ALEXA: "Eeyanaka! (It is OK, isn't it?)"
That's what it means.

"Ohayou-san (Good morning)" "honnma bikkuriyawa (I'm really surprised)" and "Hayo kaette kitena (Hurry up, come home)"
Well, once talk to her in English seems to reset it for a while.

Communicating with Alexa isn't very good, but I feel like it would be easier with animals. I will be in Mongolia tomorrow. If the horse is the opponent, COVID 19 is also safe.

 

ANIMALS REUNITED WITH THEIR OWNERS AFTER YEARS!


PCR test

2022-08-17 22:18:24 | 日記

PCR test for the second time in my life. The first test was to amplify and detect the virus gene, which was requested by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government when I went whale watching in the Ogasawara Islands during the corona crisis.

The sensitivity is about 70%, and if the virus is not present in the place where the specimen is collected, it will be negative even if it is infected. For this reason, it is not "negative" but "not detected".

The test I did today is also a PCR test. Last time, I think I just put saliva (swipe method?) on a cotton swab, but this time I was asked for about 1cc of saliva.
...because I was hungry. Finish the inspection quickly and eat at Mac! When I was thinking about it, the saliva collection ended in no time. By the way, the cost is 27,000 yen (tears).

In Tokyo, it seems that free PCR tests are also being carried out, but now that the number of infected people is increasing, it is daunting to move to Tokyo. So, I took the exam in Chiba in the countryside.
Results will be out in two days. Now wash your neck and wait.


negative proof

There is a "vaccination certificate" in the Japanese government's official new corona vaccination certificate app. Read my number and passport and register.
Separately from this, there is an app of MySOS, which eliminates the need for "examination at the airport" and "waiting after entering the country" if the pre-test is negative when returning from overseas. Because this is not directly related to vaccination, it is not linked even though it is the same official app of the Japanese government.

If being  not infected when entering Japan from overseas, it is OK. Therefore, no vaccinations or pre-travel tests should be required, but this MySOS requires these proof voluntarily.

Of course, it is best not to send domestically infected patients to foreign countries, and first of all, it is better not to go abroad unless you are confident that you are not infected.

A smartphone is required for MySOS registration and quarantine.
Unfortunately, the screen of my smartphone is yellow because "the inspection certificate is not registered" at this moment.
In order to make this a fast track, t  it is necessary to take a test set by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare overseas, obtain a negative certificate, register, and turn the screen blue.

All foreigners enter the country that way. Is it reasonable now that the infection is exploding in the country? I wonder if the purpose is to discriminate against overseas viruses. .
Now I Worried about running out of smartphone battery・・・
