Nice to meet you.

I recently moved to Orange from Japan.

I enjoyed walking in Japan, so I was wondering if you could recommend any trails, hiking trails, or areas in the Orange County area where I can go for a short walk (about an hour ）) on the weekend. I don't walk in the parks in my neighborhood. I've been walking around the neighborhood parks, but I'm getting a little
bored with the same places.

Please let me know.

I often get itchy feet before bed.
I can't sleep because I can't keep my feet still.

If anyone else has the same problem, please let me know the solution.

Bank account registered with treasurydirect

Problem / Need advice

I am a former Union Bank user.
I had an account at treasurydirect.gov and had Union Bank registered, but now that US Bank has absorbed it, my bank number and account number have changed and I need to change them.
treasurydirect's system is cumbersome and I have to go all the way to the bank to change my bank account, have a document stamped like a notary seal and mail it in.
The first US bank branch I went to refused to do the paperwork, another branch rejected it on treasurydirect's side because it was stamped with something like a regular rubber stamp at first, and on the third try, even though I had it properly notarized and mailed, treasurydirect The reason was that the bank could not confirm it. The reason was that they could not verify the bank.
It said to check if the bank number or account number is wrong or if the bank supports ACH, but I have checked the routing number and account number many times and they are correct, and I honestly don't think UA bank does not support ACH, and I am at a loss.
Can anyone who is familiar with financial matters please advise me ？.

Service industry. I feel that the number of customers has suddenly stopped since mid-August. My partner's workplace is the same.
We are trying to curb unnecessary expenses due to rising prices, but
if our income is also decreasing, we are going to have to dip into our savings.

How about you ？
What will happen to the world?
I am not worried.

He said that Showa Otouta always bombarded him once a week at a Japanese restaurant. When he was flamed for the tip issue, he was upset that poor people are jealous because they can't eat sushi. As one would expect from someone who lives comfortably on his pension, real estate income, and investments from both Japan and the US.

People's desire to "want" is, unfortunately, never-ending. If we let that desire take over and spend money, we will see the collapse of our finances. It is those who are rich in spirit who do not spend money on useless things.
Because they know what is necessary for themselves and what is wasteful.

Right now the U.S. central bank is raising interest rates in an attempt to keep inflation and the booming economy in check.
We are very close to being able to control this inflation and slow down the economy, so we just have to be patient a little longer.

That's why I said raising interest rates would be counterproductive.

Living Environment in Irvine

Hello, I have been an expatriate since June and arrived in our area before my family.
I am thinking about living in Irvine, but I wanted to start a topic to let you know where I should live.

We have two children, ages 4 and 2.
My wife is not good at English and would like to join a Japanese community if possible.
We have not decided on a kindergarten yet.


We have heard that West Park and Woodbridge are usually good places to live, and we were going to look in those areas, but there are not many apartments （ and even if there are, they are over our budget ）. So the following areas came up.

Northwood
Cypress Village
Oak Creek
Great Park

I have a boss who told me that the area above Route 5 has few expats and many Chinese people. I have heard that the area above Route 5 has fewer expatriates and more Chinese people.
I am hoping to live in an area with a certain amount of expatriates, but I wonder what the actual situation is like ？

I would like to hear various opinions from people who live in each area or are familiar with the area.
Thank you very much.

Do you know of any stores in Los Angeles or Orange County that have Japanese manga ？
I've seen some Japanese restaurants that have a little bit of manga, but
I would be happy if it was as good as a manga cafe.
I want to read Japanese manga in Japanese. Especially Kaguya-sama.

There used to be something like a manga cafe in Costa Mesa ？ I wonder if it still exists.
I don't think so, it's been a long time.

I think Fu-Fu-Tei had a pretty good selection, I wonder if they still have that place.
Not OC though.

I don't know any more.

Thanks for the reply.

There was a manga cafe in Costa Mesa, but it is now a poki place. The manga seems to be gone.

I see that Fu-Fu-Tei is still there. I have never been there. It seems to be quite popular.

It is a site like RecoChoku in Japan.
Except for AppleItunes, it is better. （ I have a large gift card balance and it is automatically paid from the balance ）
What else can I use to make a transaction of around $1.00 by credit card charge?
My purpose is to pay only to make a transaction to my credit card.
Thank you very much.
