Global Vision is a Japanese televison show but the theme of the show is not Japan but the lives of ordinary people on the other parts of the world. What I like about this show is I get to know the life of people in other countries and at the same time practive my Japanese listening skills and reading skills via the subtitles.
You do not have to be in Japan to watch this TV show. Past episodes can be seen online.
