solo bike riding in japan but mentally on facetime with you
[Music] Okay, guys. Oh, it’s currently 6:33 and I’m freaking exhausted. We’re going to rent a bike. All right. Am I used to riding bikes? No. Cardor unlocking sigoy. Okay, hold on. Google Maps, please assist me. I’m very lost because I’ve been wandering around. So, my ability to navigate will be tested. I’m not a bad bike rider, okay? I can ride a bike. Riding a bike around the city, that’s that’s a whole other issue, y’all. I think I’m going the wrong way. All right. Anyways, we’re riding we’re riding home. We’re approaching the pond man children’s music. Y’all, I freaking love pond man. Do you guys know that pond man song by BTS? Waiting for you on man. There it is. Pun pun. Man, the chances of me running into someone with this bike is very high. So, we’re going to do our absolute best to not focus so much on the camera. Okay, buddy. Just zoom past me. I’m getting lapped. I am getting lapped by all the businessmen. Y’all absolutely demolishing me. I don’t want to I don’t want to bunk into any of y’all. Please, please move. Oh my god, I feel so cool right now. It’s the coolest I will ever be. If I have to turn a corner on a road, I’m absolutely I’m actually so anxious riding this because I’m approaching like a group of people. My fear of hitting any one of them is very very very very very very high right now. And the fact is I don’t know this route. So I’m kind of just like have to figure it out, you know? [Music] Fun fact. Fun fact. When I was a kid, I used to ride bikes all the freaking time. A bicycle was my main port mode of transportation cuz you know, suburb life and everything. So, it was like you just had to like roam around on a bicycle. As a kid, you’re like free of any worries and stresses. And that is what I feel right now. That is literally what I feel right now. Even if it’s only temporary, I’m very happy that I get that same kind of like freedom that I felt as a kid because it’s rare to feel that in this day and age before bills and life got really serious. Isn’t this fun? I told you we’d have a fun day today. Even though I didn’t do much earlier today because I was like still asleep and then I had some work to do, I’m really glad we at least did this one thing. I updated my portfolio. So, by chance, if anyone is watching this and you need an editor or any brands needing some kind of marketing or brand strategy, hit your girl up. Link to my portfolio will be in my description. I’m being for real. Like, a girly needs to find a way to pay her bills. Girly needs to be able to afford a roof over her head. We’re approaching train tracks. This is a long way. We have to get off and walk cuz it’s such a tight space. [Music] [Music] This is like Pokémon trainer activity right here. You know when you go like get a bike and you choose like bike A or bike B and then one either is like a like a mountain bike or one’s like a really a fast bike. That’s what this is giving right now. We’re actually riding in the Kanto region, guys. The freaking Kanto region. And you know Kanto Pokémon. clicky dink. What can I talk about? I don’t know what to talk about. What am I What’s going on with my head right now? Turning [Music] around every now and then. I need you and we’ll be holding on forever making together. I really need you tonight. Once upon a time there was love in my life. But now there’s [Music] only total eclipse of a heart. Enjoy that. I think it’s been like 13 or 16 years since Glee like aired or something like some some kind of anniversary for Glee. So then I’ve just been like seeing on my feed all this Glee related content. A lot of people think that Glee is a cringe show, and it is. It’s a freaking It’s the cringiest cringe of the cringe show ever, but you know what? That show literally raised me, y’all. That show literally raised me. My 13th birthday, it was like Glee themed. And I remember designing like the invitations for it, and it had like all the Glee cast. I like photoshopped myself in with them. It was just, it’s just such an iconic show. My favorite character, Santana. Absolute slay. Rest in peace, Nia Rivera. You know what? It’s getting dark and I need to turn my bike light on, but I don’t know how to do that. Safety first. All right, we got her working. Oh, not my Google Maps cuz I don’t know where I’m going. Resenter. Okay, we’re 9 minutes away to our destination. Anyways, effectively Don’t Stop Believing that I had that on. I had that song on, y’all. And I feel like it’s like just one of the soundtracks to my life. Like Don’t Stop Believing by The Journey, but Glee Virgin. You know what? Something I always ask my friends is if you guys had to have like a closing ending credit to your to your life or if you had like a soundtrack to your life, like what songs would you have? Anyways, I’m in another country right now. I do have another video I’m going to upload eventually. That kind of just like covers the past whatever or so months of my life because I did disappear. Like I literally ghosted everyone, deactivated my Instagram. I actually had to activate one of my accounts again because I needed to do it for work. So, I’m not completely offline, okay? I’m just like trying not to like be so absorbed into other people’s lives and also just generally just like limiting people’s access to me. I love people. I I genuinely love people I do and I love my friends and I’m forever grateful for everyone’s like support or for anyone who’s just like been in my life and who has welcomed me with like safety and love and all that. Like I really there’s not a day that goes by where I’m not grateful for that. And to be honest, it’s probably part of my mental health as well. I need some time to really like isolate but in a way that isn’t destructive. So for instance, bike riding around in Yokohama, Japan. That’s a great idea, isn’t it? I agree. Right. You agree? Because if I get too serious and too emotional right now, it’s a bit it’s a bit too [Music] real. Oh, it smells like egg [Music] here. Don’t [Music] stop. Hold on to the street lights. What else is up? the trains, the smell of summer approaching. It’s beautiful. I have really nice interactions with strangers. But I was at Ueno Park the other day and this old like Oji son came up to me and then I thought he was just like being really sweet and like just trying to be friendly, but no. You know what he did? He held my hand and then he gave me a slight boob brush and then he asked to go to a hotel, a freaking hotel with me and I was just being nice and making conversation, you know? I’m used to like talking to strangers, so whatever. I didn’t think anything of it. I thought he was just like some nice old man. And then he freaking like asked to go to a hotel with me and I’m like, what the what? I’m going to walk this cuz annoying my ass. This is steep. There was this one song where the kid’s just riding his bike around the world and it’s like I forgot the name of it, but it goes like feel the love generation and the kid’s just riding his bike around the world and like everyone’s greeting him and like expressing like joy and just like happy vibes. It was just one of those songs where it’s like yes, like that’s what I want to feel. I want to feel that way when I’m riding my bicycle around the freaking world. I feel like that kid. Anyways, how are you? [Music] I hope if you’re watching me and you’re like, you don’t know who I am. Hi, my name is Lizzy and I’m a content creator based in Melbourne, but I’m currently in Japan. If you’re new here, feel free to subscribe, like, comment down below, something positive, or if you’re a friend who watches my videos. Hi, love you. Miss you. Have a couple blocks left before we reach home. I hope you’re having a lovely day, wherever you are, whoever you are. Cross lot. This is like a fever dream. Like going inside one of those is a fever dream. Guys, do not go into a patch spot. I’ve never been, but just breezing past it, it it’s just it’s just aura negative. It’s easy to get lost here. Very, very easy to get lost here. And I don’t want to I don’t want to do that. That’s another song that comes to my head is that Naruto song where it goes and it’s just like singing about like bicycles like riding a bike. Okay, we’re getting there. I know where we are. Right next to the university. But I need to figure out where to park this bike. Why am I heading straight on towards cars right now? Okay, we’re here. It’s currently 7:30. It’s already dark, but this Oh, make it complete. I had to ask a stranger how to like lock the bike back in place, but we got it. And I almost forgot the camera as well. Ring lock. I need me some Something about egg sandwiches here. Hipster. Best freaking coffee. Best bottle of coffee. Need some water cuz I need to stay hydrated and I don’t drink enough of this. [Music] Oh, hi. Hi. this way, I think. Oh my god, I got so lost on these streets. In front of me is Yokama Stadium. Now, if you’re wondering what I did today, I went to Blue Coffee and I sat there for hours, literal hours, just doing work. Just doing work cuz I’m not here on vacation. I’m here working. I’m working. cuz she’s a working late cuz she’s a content creator. I think it’s time to say good night. Thank you for riding with me. Did you have fun? I hope you had fun. I actually do have a uh a better edited video. More of a journal type vibe entry. But you guys just get this video for today. Have a good night. Thank you for Thank you for riding with me literally.
