Uh I don’t know being being from the West something that I’m really just not used to and uh every block is one and I’ve often wondered you know people always say well there’s people Japanese are so so good you know and there there’s no crime it must be because

There’s no guns well Ian I’m not going to get into a political debate with anybody but Japanese just have a they have a belief about Karma and that if they do something wrong and disrespectful it’s going to come back to bite them so they’re just really respectful about that and uh it’s not

Get it’s not about obeying laws it’s just about doing the right thing isn’t that beautiful guys oh it’s probably again copyrighted music so I’m going to mute pause guys for a mute here we are oh my goodness for some reason or another I haven’t seen been

Out there I’m streaming tonight with an insta 360 Gimbal and with my uh Samsung uh s23 Ultra so quite resistant for a cold resistant for a Florida guy I am I love the cold I can be outside I live for those who don’t know I lived in North Dakota for 5

Years and uh I loved it I mean when it got up to when it got up to 20° that’s t-shirt weather baby and uh I was enjoying that so yeah I’m I’m just fine I know how to put clothes on like I said before I can always put more on but

Anytime man I’m like covered in snow yeah I’m very prepared I’m very prepared you wouldn’t uh I got several layers on underneath this I learned I’m I’m an Outdoorsman and uh I know how to dress for the cold I know how to put on different layers again like I said I can

Always take layers off if I get too hot but um again if it’s hot I can only go down so far yeah right about the heat you dude I’m telling you I I I cannot deal with the heat when when when August comes around in Japan I just like forget

About it I’m just going to stay inside and lock myself up um they I don’t know if they’re if it’s a new thing or if it’s just in Japan but in Japan they actually make vests with like little fans and they actually inflate with air and they keep

You nice and cool and uh I haven’t bought one yet but maybe I need to do it look at all these people their hair is just all covered in snow yeah I don’t know if that’s just a Japan thing or what because i’ I’ve noticed them after moving to

Japan and the guys that get to work outside all day they wear these little vests with fans and coolers that keep cold air blowing on them at all times well not cold air but just air anyway yeah all the lights have gone out I think things are kind of begin to

Shut down for the night it’s 10:00 and uh I’m slowly making my way back towards my hotel we’re still trying I I said earlier on my previous video I was thinking of going to the The Fish Market at 5 6:30 tomorrow morning to do some live video or just shoot video I don’t

Know if I’ll live or not or shoot video of the fish market and the Japanese fish market first thing in the morning is so cool I mean these guys I don’t even have words for it it’s just like they’re just like ants and they’re just working so

Hard and and just moving fish around and hold on a second another I’m just going to take in this snow yeah we don’t see this in Florida yeah I heard about the Nomad Visa today for the first time and um I don’t need that for a Visa for me right now um but

That is that’s a good thing for the the digital Nomad Visa that’s a really cool thing because there’s a there’s so many people who are literally digital Nomads and they they did they can travel the world like I said earlier tonight I met some guys uh from France and if you guys

Are still watching thank you guys so much um and I really appreciate you watching but uh yeah they were they were just traveling the world they’ve been to all over the world Colombia and Peru and Bolivia Japan and just all over the place and and it’s just such an awesome

Lifestyle I’m getting to the age now where I’m like man I kind of maybe need to start thinking about finding a place to hang my hat permanently or the guy said tonight that I was talking with a french guy a place to put your backpack take off your back backpack and just and

Just stop so maybe I’m I’m still looking for a place to hang my backpack I’ve uh probably not traveled the world quite as much as he has but i’ I’ve I’ve traveled the world and lived around the world and three different continents and I just I love experiencing culture and that’s like one

Of the most important things to me is just experiencing culture I don’t care about seeing a building or I mean the we’re here looking at thece F which is cool but it’s just the cultural cultural immersion is just what it’s all about to me all right guys it’s getting dark

Uh uh you’re very welcome you know travel is not a scary thing you know I don’t I don’t know your age and please don’t tell me your age it’s not important but at the age of like let’s see I’m trying to be very careful here at the age of

Mid-50s mid-50s yeah I’ve probably said more than I should now at the age of mid-50s I decided to sell everything house RV Jeeps cars everything and moved to Japan and people some people said you are nuts you are crazy you’ve given up everything but uh

I just felt called to do it and and I haven’t looked back I haven’t regret it there was a time for a while I it scared the hell out of me and uh but everything is okay you know I don’t want to get too too crazy and religious but

Um yeah God there there’s definitely a God and he’s definitely taking care of me there we go so yeah don’t be afraid don’t be afraid to do something if there’s something you want to do do it well better sense I I don’t know if it’s better sense or what I don’t know U

My sisters have always told me I’ve got a way of making things work and that’s not to boast or anything like that but I know how to make things work and uh Hey YouTube’s one of the things you know I found YouTube and it’s really helping me

Out and thanks to you guys again I’m flipping that right back to you guys I can’t take credit for anything because I you YouTube is nothing without you guys so I’m just I’m nobody so thank you guys so much again but things work out don’t be afraid if you got a dream go

For it and we we always hear this you know it sounds so fraking cliche if you got a dream go for it do it I mean I came to Japan for the very first time here we go we’re going to get r romantic here for a second I came for

To Japan for the very first time back in the uh late 80s and I fell in love with it and I and I know at that you know a lot of people come to Japan and they say I love Japan it’s such a great and I fell in love

And when I got here it was was it was Utopia and it was like the Utopia that everybody thinks oh it’s so cool it’s so wonderful but there what it is a honeymoon hold on it’s like I dropped my hat there is a honeymoon phase and for a

While there I was like I’m I’m sick of Japan I’m ready to get out of here it’s driving me nuts the everybody’s just such a conformist and they do everything that they’re told and everybody’s just such a sheep but I I came to really just enjoy it and I settled

In and it is a country that I have deep respect for and my my wife and I were talking tonight um I’m I’m I’m going deep now guys thanks for sticking with me here but we were talking and the Japanese are such shy people they don’t want to they

Don’t want to open up they’re very afraid to open up because I said earlier on the on the on the video Japanese have a saying of that the nail that sticks up gets hammered and nobody wants to stick up and get hammered I’m going to kind of

Back out of the festival yeah it’s closed out for the night but nobody nobody wants to uh nobody wants to stick up and so but in a world of people who don’t want to stand out Stand Out follow your heart do what you feel called to do because you know the I I

Tell people I have no fears in life I’m not afraid of anything and people tell me all the time you’re not afraid of anything but that’s not true the one thing I’m afraid of is getting to the end of my life and then looking back and saying I

Wish I would have X I should have done X I should have followed my heart in X and don’t do that follow your heart if it’s your heart it’ll it’ll it’ll come to pass it’ll it’ll happen I’m not saying and again I’m not saying that Japan is some kind of Utopia it’s not
