This is the life of a Typical Japanese family living in Tokyo Japan with both parents working.  Hifumi, 27 years old, works in Tokyo and runs her own churro shop while taking care of her 2 Japanese kids.  The 2 Tokyo kids usually go to the nursery around 8:30 on weekdays so mornings are usually chaotic on top of her regular work schedule which starts shortly after she drops them off and continues until the afternoon, then she has to juggle the 2 kids schedules picking them up at separate times usually between 3-4 to also shuttle them separately to one of their many extracurricular activities and to finally bring them home just in time for dinner, but since today is a weekend there\u2019s a slower pace to things, nonetheless Hifumi still has to balance some of her work today, while also taking care of her kids.   She actually took several years off of work after giving birth, as she struggled mentally to take care of them on her own, while her husband worked to support the family financially.  In Japan, it\u2019s common enough for women to completely handle the child rearing responsibilities, that the term, one ope was coined, meaning one parent operation. But ultimately she decided being a Japanese housewife wasn\u2019t for her and eagerly took a production job and eventually started her own business. Being a working mom in Japan isn\u2019t easy, but she definitely prefers being a business owner compared to working at job for some else like when she worked in production.  Now, she\u2019s able to better manage and dictate her schedule so she can be flexible for her kids activities.  Today, we&#8217;ll see how this working Japanese mother manages her time between work, home and kids.  <\/p>\n<p>Hifumi&#8217;s IG &#8211; @hi_tsuno<br \/>\nPalm Tree (Churros shop) IG &#8211; @palm_tree2021<br \/>\nPalm Tree Yoga &#8211; https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/fVyLcD8Tttx4MyKB8<br \/>\nPalm Tree Kichijoji &#8211; https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/DCE7MWbNQSLphUWQA<\/p>\n<p>Watch more of my Japan Day in the Life videos:<br \/>\n&#8211; https:\/\/tokyozebra.com\/ditl<\/p>\n<p>Get my Tokyo &#038; Japan Merch and show your support!<br \/>\n&#8211; https:\/\/www.tokyozebra.com\/mrch<\/p>\n<p>___ Tokyo Zebra: My 2nd YouTube Channel ___<br \/>\nSee My Life in Japan behind the scenes<br \/>\n&#8211; https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/tokyozebra<\/p>\n<p>Questions about Japan or Japan Travel?
