Rice being more expensive in Japan than in Europe is a wild fact.

The cost of living has gone up too much in the US also. Many people on average incomes are struggling.

Hi, Hiromi! Thanks for the vídeo. I believe the rise of life costs are affecting all countries in one way or another. Here in Brazil, rice also is one of the principal food products and it is getting more and more expensive. The government is doing a zero tax policy for basic food products, but it isn't working, since everything is so expensive. Rent and transportation are also very expensive. <br>I love to watch your videos, they help me control anxious thoughts and focus on the moment and relax. Good morning for you and good night for us! Kisses and a very tight hug from Brazil ❤

A little expensive for a humble Brazilian but the real challenge when it comes to visiting Japan is the plane ticket cost, literally a trip to the other side of the world.

Very interesting! In Germany the food is also becoming more and more expensive. Especially meat, fish, seafood.
