Christmas at Tokyo Disney is simply the most magical time of yearrr ahhhhh but you pay the price by the crowds πŸ₯Ή But!! So cute!!! I really love Tokyo Disney~ And shopping in Shibuya on the weekend is always so crowded, but I’m always surprised by just how many people there are nowadays….kind of miss the 2020 crowds πŸ˜… But at least shopping here is always full of cute stuff and is fun despite the people!!

What’s your favorite time of year? I love how alive the city feels with the Christmas illuminations and such~ I feel winter from January-February is extra lifeless and dull coming after December…just a waiting game until the cherry blossoms come out πŸ₯°

Happy holidays everyone!!!

Ready for Disney by it was really Fun So cute oh my God so cute option one that’s cute it’s cute yeah option one option two that matches your bag okay option three actually kind of works you know I’m kind of liking this I think you should do the hamburger I think I need the hamburgers okay I’m doing the

Hamburgers ready for Disney yes I don’t know what we’re doing first me Either they’re magnets I need It P it’s appropriate that you have the sandwich ears and you’re eating a sandwich I’m nothing if not dramatically Consistent so cute So Japan so Japan cast your votes do we like it it’s reversible we have a Hidden Mickey where’s the Mickey pretty cute attention to Detail No Daddy what bye Five happy 40th Rachel Merry Christmas cie here’s a bus cool only a Disney the tongs to eat the Popcorn SP Thoughtful yeah Bab woo it’s so foggy woo Who how is Disney Rachel it was really fun really really fun yeah and the p schol it’s really nice it does 10 out of 10 marry marry cie Everyone all right it has been a few days since I went to Disney well almost a week obviously I was too tired after Disney to think about picking up a camera yeah it was really good Christmas in Tokyo Disney’s like it’s like great it’s super good but it is always crowded

Even on the weekdays like the tickets sell out what can you do do if you do like theme parks at all but you maybe don’t want to spend 2 days at like Disney I get it I would actually recommend you go to Disney C instead Disneyland which is where I went this

Time like Disneyland is the more like stereotypical Disney and maybe that’d be better if you like don’t have an opportunity to go to any other Disney but like if you’re from like the us or something then Disney C super good I’ve done Vlogs there in the past and I’m

Probably going to go again next springish maybe I’m from Central Florida for reference so but anyway it has been a few days it is a new week it has been a crazy week for me so we had our end of the year party at work yesterday so I

Didn’t get home until really late and I was working late all week preparing for it but it’s done and I’m very tired today too actually still I feel very tired I don’t know and I slept for like 10 hours and now it’s 3:00 p.m. but I have things to do because I’m going

Home home ah I try to go home every year around Christmas so I’m going to go home in 4 days from today so okay I haven’t done any Christmas shopping basically yet great I’ve just I’ve been so busy I haven’t packed I haven’t thought about

It I I don’t know though I do need to go out today and do some Christmas shopping for my family so if you are my family please stop watching this video right now or I will I will hunt you down there’s not that many of us so yeah we’re going out

Um I reserved this whole weekend to be alone with myself this apartment has fallen into chaos I need to do a lot of shopping I need to pack I I have so much to do and I have to get the summer clothes back out again cuz I’m from

Florida I’ve basically been going out with friends like every weekend nonstop for the past month or more whenever have a day off which is great for me socially and very bad for me in YouTube and just cleaning and cooking Etc it’s a mess it’s a mess here let’s

See what we can find I’m just going to go to Loft and see what I can get I don’t know so stress but before we go shopping I wanted to take a quick minute to thank the sponsor of today’s video nordvpn I’ve talked about them before but

Like geographically so you can connect to the internet from different countries and this is great for people who want to watch deblocked content or maybe stuff that’s only available in certain countries for example like it could be available on Japanese Netflix but not on the US Netflix which I am now

Discovering because one of my favorite anime is not available on the US Netflix thank you nordvpn so if you think this is something that you can maybe benefit from and believe me like everyone can then try it out for yourself risk-free with a 30-day money backat guarantee

With my code at nordvpn.com Allison in Tokyo and right now you can get a huge discount with the purchase of a 2-year plan and get four extra months so once again thank you nordvpn and now let’s go shopping Foreign What Are to Right we’re home I ate my Panda Express not that many of them in Japan but there happens to be one in chibia great you know it’s it’s Saturday it’s Saturday night I’m going to eat what I want so I wanted to do a quick little haul to show

You what I got if you’re my family stop this don’t watch this you’re going to ruin Christmas uh I didn’t actually get that much though honestly I wanted to get more but I don’t know I wasn’t really in the mood to shop you know and

I don’t know it was so crowded but let me show you what I did get them so every year I get my parents and my grandparents parents like the same thing these are like New Year’s decorations in Japan look don’t ask me the specifics but basically you hang them on your door

I’m reading it off the back now I think on the door it doesn’t say I think it’s on the door and it brings like just like welcome and like happiness in the New Year and that stuff you know so I don’t know I get them one

Every year and we hang it up cuz why not and then I also get them like these um they’re like you know it’s like the Year of the Dragon this next year so I got them little like Dragon decoration thingies I don’t want to open the boxes

Though to show you cuz I have to give it to them but it’s just like a little ceramic Dragon so yeah the you know the year thing changes 12 there’s 12 different types right so that’s 12 years of presence covered well I I get them more than I get them more than this

Stuff guys this is just like something and then also for my mom I get her bath stuff these are like bath salts so this is osmanthus flour and then Yuzu flavor flavor don’t eat it Yuzu scent and then for my sister really I want to go to the

Ji store sometime cuz she likes that but from the Disney Store I got her this it’s super cute and fluffy she really likes poo it’s like wait sorry it like stands it’s meant to stand it’s like Decor I like that maybe I should keep it

And then I also got her this kind of glass cup where it’s like when it’s upside down you can see the face sorry I don’t want to open it again but it’s like like then when you’re drink oh my oh my God then when you’re drinking

It um it looks like this okay I’m going to put that down and then for myself I got a lucky bag from ROM and which is a really good Korean makeup brand so I will be opening this on my channel in January the lucky bags we’re gearing up

Guys you know I always do so many every year and I love lucky bags so I don’t know I’m going to try it might be less this year than before I’ve just been busy but we’ll see so we got we got this one I’m going to just store it away and

I also got some little pimple patches and then I also I saw this on Tik Tok so it’s like it’s called a rle that’s like the worst name ever I know and it’s basically supposed to be like micro needling in a like essence or something I’m scared

To try this cuz my skin May react badly but we’ll see we’ll see and then last I got one of these freaking Sunny Angels Sunny Angels they’re not like a big thing in Japan guys but I see a lot of tourists come here and they kind of

Expect to find Sunny Angels they’re not a huge thing here at all especially compared to how often I see them on like Western Tik Tok and stuff but the Loft and sha does have some if you’re interested so I’m got my first one so

Let’s open it up I got the kind that you can like hang on a monitor or something so they are blind boxes if you don’t know and sunny angels are all like just basically naked babies okay I’m ruining the box I don’t care okay open open I got a koala there he is

Naked I admit I’m not a huge koala fan but I will put him on my monitor so that’s what I got I love shopping but it is hard to carry things in Japan and on the weekend everything is so so so crowded all right I’m going to go play

Games for the rest of the night and just kind of chill cuz I’m still tired so thank you guys for watching I hope you have a lovely Christmas a lovely New Year and I’ll see you guys back in January with my lucky BG haul are you ready I’m ready I’m going to the

US in a few days going to be there for 2 weeks and then I’m coming back right before New Year’s to do the lucky bags you know how I do it all right please make sure you like the video subscribe to my channel for more content about my

Life here in Japan in the future and I will see you guys back here again soon Bye

  1. Not sure why your channel doesn't have more subs. There hasn't been a single video that you have put out that I watched and didn't like. Love the chill vibes your videos send out.

    Great video. Looking forward to more in 2024.

  2. Merry Christmas! Happy New Year! Love your videos! Would you maybe do a video next year going shopping for manga? That would be a fun one to see

  3. Should probably return that mug & buy a new one incase it broke πŸ˜… Don’t know if you already left Japan tho, lol

  4. My wife and I had our first apartment together in Anaheim, about 1 block away from Disneyland. We always bought Season Passes and would walk over in the evenings to enjoy the musical acts, Disney shows or just hang out with friends in the park. Anaheim wasn't the greatest city to live, but being so close to Disneyland made up for that in so many ways. I always enjoy seeing Japan's take on Disney and how different people choose to enjoy what's offered. Thanks for such a memory-provoking video, Allison!

  5. Happy December, πŸŽ„πŸ’«πŸŒ™πŸŒ  Best Wishes to you, and family! Have a lovely Christmas!πŸŽ…πŸΌπŸ₯‚πŸ΅πŸ₯Ήβ˜ΊοΈπŸŽ’🎑🎠🎟️

  6. Hi Allison, I really enjoyed the video shots of Tokyo in the evening, like the trains going to their various destinations and the lights in the streets. I hope your travels to the US and back to Japan go smoothly too. Thank you for sharing your insights and fun experiences throughout this year. Wishing you, your family and friends a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from mine in England πŸŽ„πŸ˜Š

  7. Have a great time with your family! Thanks as always for sharing!πŸŽ„πŸŽ…πŸΎπŸ™πŸΎπŸ“Ώ

  8. Really love your channel Allison, I don’t normally comment but I wanted to tell you that you inspired me to try really new and scary things so I am officially going back to college at 30 years old, to get an accounting degree! I adore your content and one thing on my bucket list is to live in Japan for a year, I’m hoping I can accomplish that one day. Hope you have a very happy holiday season and stay healthy!

  9. Disney looks like a great time. Glad you and Rachel enjoyed it! Happy Holidays to you tooπŸŽ…πŸ₯³
