Our FIRST IMPRESSIONS of Japan 🇯🇵 Two Days in Fukuoka

Our FIRST IMPRESSIONS of Japan 🇯🇵 Two Days in Fukuoka

It’s our first time in Japan, and we’re 
starting off in Fukuoka. For the next 48 hours,   we’re figuring out public transport. What’s 
happening? We got kicked off the train, and now I’m just a little bit over it. Stumbling 
into cherry blossoms—I didn’t think we were going   to see these. Sampling the local favorites 
and some of the best karaage I’ve ever had, and slowly settling into the rhythm of a 
new country. This isn’t a checklist or a   highlight reel. It’s just what our first 
few days in Japan actually looked like. This is a good start. And seeing as we’re starting our trip in 
the birthplace of Tonkotsu Hakata Ramen,   I can’t really think of a better 
way to start this video. Let’s go. So we are standing outside, waiting 
in line at Hakata Genki Ippai,   which is a very small, very popular with 
the locals, little tonkotsu ramen spot. It’s so cool. The only way that 
you know if this place is open is   by the blue bucket that the owner puts 
outside. And we’re the only foreigners, so that tells me that it’s going to be 
really, really good, and I’m very excited. This shop is tiny, but the smells coming 
out of the kitchen were next level. This place serves one thing—Hakata Tonkotsu Ramen, 
a specialty of Fukuoka. We both ordered the   standard soup for 1,000 yen, and I got mine 
with a soft-boiled egg. The broth was rich, creamy, and full of flavor. The noodles 
were fresh and perfectly cooked, and the   chashu brought it all together. Honestly, 
it was the best first meal here in Japan. We are here at the subway trying to get to 
Ohori Park so we can go visit our next location, which is the Fukuoka Castle Ruins. We 
know that there’s all kinds of ways to   get on and off the subway. We got in late 
last night, so we don’t have any of that stuff. The super kind staff here took us over 
and showed us how to get this little IC card.   He says that the Suica card is not good for 
the subway, but I do believe that it actually does work for the subway. I’m not 100% sure. So 
Ashley’s got a card, I have my Apple Pay card, and yeah—we’re good to go. It feels 
so much different than any other metro   and subway system we’ve ever experienced 
here. Almost feels retro. It’s awesome. What’s happening? We got kicked off the train. So this is why I’m confused. It 
says, “Ride that stop for one stop, get to this station, remain on board, ride 
three stops, and we get to Ohori Park.” Well, there’s our train. Apparently that train was out of 
service, so we’ve got to wait a few minutes for another one. We’ll see. We’re 
learning. We’re always figuring stuff out. We’re now back out in nature. It feels amazing. 
It is such a beautiful day. We’re on the outskirts   of Ohori Park right now, and we are making our 
way to the Fukuoka Castle Ruins. I’ve never seen a Japanese castle, but all the images I’ve seen 
of them—they just look amazing and so beautiful.   Very excited to check this out. It looks like it 
might rain, but it doesn’t call for rain anywhere. We’ll keep our fingers crossed and hope that it 
doesn’t rain. Let’s go check out this castle. Do they traipse elephants through here too? I don’t know that Japan has elephants. Yeah, I was going to say—do 
they even have elephants? I don’t think so. Just seems like an unusually large door. But through that unusually large door, 
a pleasant surprise was waiting for us. That’s so cool. Unexpected surprise. I know—I didn’t think we were going to see 
these. It’s mid-April, but we’re in Fukuoka, and so I thought maybe we might see them. 
But I also thought that it might be too hot, so this is amazing. It’s so beautiful too. So I’m not sure if these are Sakura cherry 
blossoms, because they don’t quite look like it, but when I Google Lens it, it says it’s 
something called Prunus ‘Kanzan,’ which is a flowering cherry cultivar developed in the 
Edo period here in Japan. So yeah—maybe not Sakura, but definitely a cherry blossom. 
That’s pretty awesome, and that ryhmed. We made our way into the Peony 
Garden, and now we’re watching a territorial conflict between ravens, 
which we forgot how massive they are, and some sort of hawk or eagle or 
falcon—some sort of bird of prey. And they’re just chilling in this tree, just 
yelling at each other and flapping around. They were having full-blown conversations, 
and of course we turn on the camera and they stopped talking. But they’re flying all 
over the place. They’re really, really cool. Yeah—they’re all at this one tree 
in front of us just having a debate. But yeah, if you are in Fukuoka during April, 
definitely stop by Ohori Park near the Peony Garden. It is beautiful, and the peonies bloom 
in April, so that’s the perfect time to come. Although I will say a lot of them haven’t 
bloomed yet, and I think these ones are   supposed to bloom next month. So if you’re here 
in April or May, it’s definitely a good time. I’m not sure that this is Ohori Park yet. I don’t think it is. Ohori Park is over this way. But if you’re near 
the Fukuoka Castle—yeah. Look—what are they doing? I don’t know. Just moving from tree to tree, 
hollering at one another. The coins are so cool. Do 
you think I select it first,   or do I put the money in first? I guess we’ll see. Have you ever used a vending machine? Um… no, not a long time. So 
which one should I choose? I don’t know. I think it’s 
really cool though. So like, we put in 120 yen, and the 160s won’t light 
up because we’ve only got 120 in there. Interesting. Yeah, I didn’t even notice 
that. That’s cool. Alright—let’s do this one. Instant Japanese water. Is it cold? It is cold. Yeah, it’s very—not as hot 
as Southeast Asia. We just came from   Bangkok. It was hot in Bangkok. It’s warm here, but it is definitely more bearable. 
That said, I do need water. Everybody needs water. Ashley. Ahh. Are there any animals that don’t drink water? I mean… I think… I feel like probably. I think we all need water. Do bugs drink water? Probably. Mm. Mm-hmm. With their little 
proboscis or whatever it’s called. Hmm. You zoom so close. These are Sakura blossoms—I think. I’m 
almost positive. But they look like them, and they smell nice. On top of all 
the cherry blossoms and peonies,   there were so many colorful flowers all 
over this park—and apparently, hostile birds. They seem like they’ve got it handled, 
but now something else has Ashley’s attention. What in the world? Oh my gosh—what? That’s so cool! I’ve never seen anything like that. That’s crazy. Oh, I just want to boop his little snout. Don’t boop his snout. Well, in a loving way. And like give a little   screechy is all I mean. Right between 
the eyes, like a little love scratch. We’re just walking over the bridge here at Ohori 
Park, and it’s such a beautiful park. This might be up there with one of my favorites. You can 
rent these little—what are they?—swan boats.   They’ve got cafes, little shops, and stuff like 
that. But it is really, really beautiful and so peaceful. Lots of people are having picnics 
and just relaxing with their loved ones. I love Japan. I’m not going to lie—it is beyond my expectations so far. I’ve 
been here less than 24 hours. Yeah. This—this is a good start. Honestly, if it was up to me, I might just spend 
the entire day here in Ohori Park. It’s massive, it’s beautiful, and there’s so many birds and 
animals to check out. But that would probably make   for a boring video. Let me know in the comments 
below—would you want to watch a park vlog? So we are exploring the adorably picturesque 
neighborhood of Ropponmatsu, which is just a total vibe to walk through. And then we 
came across this beautiful little shrine,   so we’re going to check that out because I think 
it’s our first shrine in all of Japan so far. Nice little pockets of peace and serenity 
sprinkled throughout Fukuoka. It is just beautiful. We’re going to keep moving to check 
out the rest of this area, this neighborhood—see if we can’t find a snack or just 
something to pick us up a little bit. We just watched a crow showdown. He’s like still standing there, just so perturbed. Go get him. Also had my first JDM car sighting. Very 
excited. It’s like 90% of the reason I got into Japan in the first place. That 
and anime. Oh—there it is. It’s so cool. Konnichiwa.   Hello. Hello. Uh… one quesadilla? Hai. How do you say no to a quesadilla out of a K-car? Uh… you don’t. Apparently. It’s a K-car….K-cadilla. And it was blowtorched, you say? Yeah—he blowed it. That’s like the coolest thing ever. Whoa! That’s way more than I was expecting. 
I thought it was just going to be like a   little cheese quesadillia. Ooh, 
it’s so hot. Mmm. That’s good. What’s it taste like? Mmm. It’s a little bit sweet. It’s got like a 
tanginess to it. I thought they were black beans, but I don’t actually see any. I honestly 
have no idea what that is. It’s good though. You said you don’t know what this tastes like? Yeah, it’s like sweet and 
tangy. It’s really good though. Mmm. It’s almost like pork chili. And I know what you’re thinking—you’re like, “What? You’re in Japan—why 
are you eating Mexican?” But how do you say no to a place 
that’s got a taco in the prayer hands and it says “tacos”? It was 
basically begging me to come here. Mm. Very good. Only 350 yen. So, quick little update for you. We were 
hoping to hop on the public bus to go to the Fukuoka Tower before sunset, and we 
got on the wrong bus—twice. You would think it would be pretty simple. 
We are trying to use Google Maps,   but we just got on the wrong bus entirely 
the first time. I’m not even sure how. That was my fault. I saw the bus at 
the bus stop, got the numbers confused, and jumped on. And then the second one—I 
think somehow we just weren’t on the right side of the road, so it took us the two 
stops we were supposed to take, but in   the wrong direction. And now I’m just a 
little bit over it, if I’m being honest. We basically wasted five bucks to get further 
away from where we were trying to go. And it says that it’s going to cost 680 yen to get 
there, which is like—for the two of us—that’s like ten dollars just to get there and then ten 
dollars to get back to wherever we’re going next.   It’s just kind of like… the budget traveler in 
me is really, really struggling here in Japan. But we’re going to make the best of it. I 
think we’re going to skip Fukuoka Tower.   If you want to go see it, definitely check it 
out when you’re in the city. Unfortunately, there’s no subway to get to the Fukuoka Tower—at 
least that we can see. Maybe we’re just stupid,   which is entirely possible. Um… but yeah, so 
you’ve got to take a bus, and it’s a little confusing. We did figure it out… but just can’t 
be bothered. We’re the worst travel vloggers. Maybe it’s a little bit of jet lag, maybe it’s 
a little bit of overwhelm, or culture shock,   or whatever you want to call it. But I 
think when we get on buses and have to try to sort out how they work, and how 
the fares work… you’re also looking at   a whole bunch of coins that I’ve never seen 
before. I don’t know—maybe I’m just tired. We just got to make the best of it. Yeah. And I think I know just the way to do that. So a quick metro and filmgrain flash later, 
and we are here in the Yoshida Shrine area, which Ashley tells me is the Red 
Light District. And it’s her fault. She always ends up taking us here, 
but there’s a specific place we’re   looking to go. We’re gonna check it out. 
Just kind of catch the vibe of Fukuoka. We’re at the Nakasu Food Stall Street where 
the famous Yatai stalls of Fukuoka are lined up. There’s three areas in town. This is 
the one that’s like widely recommended and   is pretty popular. Um, I believe there’s 
a couple others that are less touristy, but it’s not like a super local thing. 
This is definitely a touristic draw. We’re gonna eat some gyoza. We got 
some hot sake. It’s very, very hot. That’s your first hot sake in Japan. And my first gyoza. Look at these things. The sauce is in there so be careful. I know, I see. I’m so excited. First gyoza in Japan. This might be the best day of my life. 
I’m not sure. We’re about to find out. So hot. And you have hot sake to wash it down. Suntory highball. We finished our Gyoza and drinks and just 
relished in the energy of Fukuoka’s night   life. But it’s getting pretty late, so we’re gonna 
head back to our hostel and try to get some sleep. Hey, I couldn’t sleep. Have you 
ever Googled yourself and just   been weirded out by what popped up? 
I did recently and…yeah. Not great. My old addresses, phone numbers, even some random 
court site had my name on it, and that’s when   it hit me. I didn’t sign up for this, but turns 
out, there are companies called data brokers that literally buy and sell your personal information. 
It’s how spammers find you and how creepy ads   know a little too much. It’s even how you can get 
charged more for stuff like flights or insurance. So what can you do about it? You can spend days 
emailing every single site asking them to remove   your info, or you can use Incogni, like I did. 
Incogni is a service that actually contacts these data brokers for you. You just sign up, give 
them permission to act on your behalf, and they   handle the rest. And the best part? With the new 
unlimited plan, you can now submit links manually too. So if you Google yourself and find a sketchy 
listing with your name on it, you just drop the   link into the dashboard and their team tries to 
get it removed. You don’t have to know the law, you don’t have to write the emails. You just 
click submit and they do the legwork. I check my   dashboard every so often and watch the removals 
pile up. It’s honestly kind of satisfying. So if you’re ready to take your data back 
and stop your inbox from becoming spam city,   click the link in our description

information into new apps, online forms,   or booking platforms. It’s just nice to know 
someone’s looking out for us on the backend. Thank you to Incogni, for sponsoring this 
video, and I’ll see you in the morning. Good morning! It’s day two here in Fukuoka 
and it is an absolutely gorgeous day. We’re on our way to get some coffee, but 
on the way we realized we’re passing the Totoji Shrine…Totiji…Tochoji shrine and it’s 
beautiful, so we’re going to go check it out. This place is so peaceful and so beautiful, 
and honestly, it’s not that crowded for being   a Saturday and absolutely gorgeous out. 
And I can’t believe it’s free. There’s so many free things to do like this, and 
the parks, and just all of the temples   and shrines. It does offset the cost of other 
things in Japan that we’ve experienced so far. The manicuring of the gardens and the variety of 
flowers and plants that we’ve seen around here is just insane. I could honestly sit here for 
hours probably, but we gotta get some coffee. We’ve just found our way into Kawabata 
Shopping Arcade, which looks kind of like   a cross between an outdoor market and a mall. 
Still kind of has a breeze, which is exciting. Yeah, it’s nice and cool in here. In 17 years, I’ve gotten 
to know Ashley pretty well,   and I feel like right now what she is 
looking for is some caffeine and some food. Nailed it. So I hope we can find both of those things 
in Kawabata Shopping Arcade. I mean, at the end of the day, at 
least there’s a Family Mart. Oh look, you can dress up in a kimono, and it 
looks like they’ll do your hair and makeup maybe. Thank you. How much was it? It was 180 yen. Oh wow, that’s really good. Is it? Mm-hmm. Nice and sweet. What is this thing called again? So, I think that’s dango. Dango? I’m not sure, but I think so. Ashley keeps telling me that it looks 
like–there’s an emoji that looks like   this and keeps asking if I recognize it. 
I’m like, “Why would I ever use that emoji?” But I don’t know, now that I’ve—now I 
can’t stop seeing it everywhere we go. It’s cold. It’s very stretchy. Is it very plain? Not plain. It has a flavor, but it’s 
very subtle. Mochi is very soft. This   is a little bit more firm, but it’s really 
good. I like it ‘cause it’s not super sweet. Oh yeah. Interesting. I don’t know if they have different 
flavors, but I thought that was— I think this one’s matcha. It smells like grass. That is all you then. Mm-hmm. It’s good. So we made it to the end of Kawabata Shopping 
Arcade, and this is definitely someplace you should check out if you’re trying to beat the 
heat or if you want to buy some souvenirs,   maybe try some snacks. There’s a bunch 
of little restaurants lining the area. I kind of thought there would be more food 
stalls as opposed to just sit-down restaurants,   but alas, I was wrong. So I think 
we’re going to find somewhere to grab a quick bite and then we’ll keep exploring. We turned a corner and Kushida Shrine appeared, 
so you know we’ve got to check it out real quick. The temples and shrines in Japan are so 
much different than the other places of   worship we’ve come across during our travels. 
Sure, there’s similarities, but the imagery and colors add such a unique aesthetic. And 
then there’s the torii gates. These are an   iconic part of Shinto shrines and represent the 
threshold between our world and the spirit world. Ooh okay, number 12. I’m slightly lucky. “Like sprouting young leaves in spring.” It’s spring! This is perfect timing. “Have mercy on others and do not hold wishes 
that are beyond your means. With modesty, you shall attain everything you desire.” My wish will be difficult to 
realize. That’s unfortunate. “The expected person will not arrive.” Who am I expecting? I don’t know. I already have you, thankfully, so that’s good. “Travel: good, as long as 
you proceed with caution.” I feel like that’s accurate. Yeah, this all looks good. I won’t bore 
you with, like, all of the details,   but it’s a pretty good fortune. If you 
want to read it, you can pause the screen. Dicey. We could spend all day walking around and 
admiring all the shrines we come across,   but we are starving. A lot of the 
restaurants in Japan close from about 2:00 to 5:00, but I think I found a place. Dusty sake bottles on the wall? Check. Menu written in Japanese? You betcha. Endless free tea? Now we’re talking. Not to mention these chefs, who are 
making the whole place smell amazing. This place is called Marumi, and it has 900 
yen set lunches, and they’re incredible. Arigato gozaimasu. Hai. Arigato gozaimasu. Thank you. Arigato gozaimasu. [indistinguishable] Is this all mine? Yeah. What?! This i so much food! Oh my gosh, I’m so 
excited. I don’t know what anything is. Those are glass noodles. Glass noodles. Got some tofu. Oh, wow, this is so cool. Miso, salad, steak, rice. Yeah. I’m so excited. This is like a proper lunch. Mm-hmm. It’s nice and rare. Yeah. Something that I’m noticing about Japanese food 
is there’s like a very delicate sweetness to—not everything—but a couple of the things that 
I’ve tried have this like very delicate,   faint sweetness to it. And this 
is the same way. It’s really, really good. It was a little hard to bite 
into, but it might have just been this end   piece. But it’s delicious. I love this sauce. So 
definitely recommend this place. What’s it called? I don’t know. We’ll leave all of the links in the description,   so go ahead and check them out. We’ll go ahead 
and pin them to, like, Google Maps and stuff. We also are going to have our Japan Google 
Maps guide, so if you want to check that out,   go to our website. It’s just 
like mikeandashleytravel.com and you can check that out. We’re going to have 
all of the places that we visit, plus the   top destinations in the country and that kind of 
stuff, so yeah, this is really good. Let’s eat. Yo, that’s incredible. Is it? Mm-hmm. That is the first in Japan, but 
hands down the best karaage I’ve ever had. Really? Got really good seasoning, perfect crunch,   and it’s still perfectly juicy. It’s 
not dry at all. This place is amazing. Okay, here goes nothing. Make sure it’s the right bus. Grab 
one of these little tickets and check   for your number on the screen. The 
fare will adjust based on distance. You can get change from these machines,   and you can also just tap on and off with your 
IC card, but we hadn’t figured this out yet. And yes, we had to try the 
bus again—not only because we,   as people who make videos about our 
travels, should be able to figure out the bus—but also because we really 
wanted to finish what we started. Right behind me is Fukuoka Tower, which is the 
tallest structure in all of Fukuoka, as well as   the tallest seaside tower in Japan. You can go 
to the top, because there is an observation deck that gives you panoramic views of the sea and the 
scenery and the mountains. But it’s like 30 bucks   a person, which is way outside of our budget, so 
we’re going to skip it and head to a seaside park. It’s the ocean. Yeah. I mean, we are on an island, I guess. The whole country is an island. Still cool though. I love the 
ocean. I’m also terrified by it. So this place is pretty interesting. 
It’s like a Mediterranean resort here   on the coast of Fukuoka. It’s really 
beautiful though—there’s lots of snacks, lots of little food stalls and vendors, and 
tons and tons of people hanging out. And wow, yeah, that is gorgeous. I think 
it’s going to be a beautiful sunset. Definitely a great place to end a beautiful 
day—a beautiful two days in Fukuoka, actually. It’s been a great two days in Fukuoka. Yeah, we’re getting better 
at saying Fukuoka, I think. Fukuoka. Fukuoka. Yeah, tell us how to say 
it, ‘cause we’re probably terrible. Probably. Is it cold? It’s so cold. It’s so clear though. Is it? Yeah. Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope. 
It is super clear though. Can’t think of anything better 
than listening to the sounds of   the waves, watching the sunset over 
mountains, and smelling the grill… In a new country. It’s so cool. Yeah. Did you ever think we’d actually make it to Japan? Yes. I don’t know, I’ve just been completely 
enchanted by this place ever since I was so small, and I always wanted to come, 
and it just seemed so far away. I mean, honestly, everywhere we’ve been 
has seemed so far away. So… Yeah, this side of the world feels so far from 
where we come from. But now, after being here for three years, Japan feels a little bit closer, 
I guess. It’s weird—like, the more you travel, the smaller the world feels. But also, like, it still 
stays big in a way. It’s this weird contradiction. This was the first country we were going to come 
to, because flights from Alaska were so affordable back in October of 2022. And that’s because you 
couldn’t travel here. We could have flown to Tokyo and then flown from there to Bangkok, but 
we wouldn’t have been able to leave the airport,   ‘cause it wasn’t quite open yet. So we 
waited and we waited—and now we’re here. In some ways, maybe it wasn’t the best 
time to come because of the exchange rate, and you know, Baby Monster is 
playing in town so all the hotels   are five times more expensive. And in 
a couple weeks, it’ll be Golden Week. There’s never a perfect time. That is true. And we just gotta live 
in the moment. And the moment is now. And in this moment, we’re in 
Fukuoka. And I’m so excited. You hungry? I’m honestly so happy. Like, I don’t even know 
what to say right now. I love Japan so far. Me too. My love. Oh, thank you, my love. Those are big. Yeah, so we got some drippy chicken yakitori. I feel like I’m going to make a mess. Probably. And some yakisoba, which we’re very excited about. Our first yakisoba in Japan. Our first yakitori in Japan. Have we not had—oh no, we haven’t. We’ve had karaage. We’ve had gyoza. We’ve 
had ramen. So many firsts. I’m so excited. All right. It looks so good. That’s a big bite! Perfect beer-drinking food. Yeah. Mm. It’s really good. It’s really juicy. Yeah, they do a really good 
job with the chicken here. This looks amazing. Mm. It’s way different than I thought it would be. Really? How so? Yeah. It’s got like—like a barbecue sauce flavor. Oh weird. Yeah, it’s really good. It’s hot. The egg makes it 
nice and creamy, and the seaweed is interesting. First yakisoba. And the ginger. Kanpai. Kanpai. Love you. I love you! To our first time in Japan. To our first time in Japan. Cheers. What are you still doing here?” If you made it this far, we can’t 
thank you enough. We think you’ll love this video next, so we’ll see you there.
