  1. Most travel vloggers just recommend the exact same three crowded places, so it’s incredibly refreshing to see someone actually uncover the real, peaceful side of Japan. Destination #4 is a total dream!

  2. Echt een kwaliteitsvideo dit. Je ziet direct hoeveel tijd en passie er in het reizen en de montage is gestoken! Hamamatsu klinkt als een unieke mix door het muzikale erfgoed en het kasteel (8:34). Meestal zie je online alleen de standaard highlights van Tokyo, dus deze 'hidden gems' zijn goud waard. Voor iedereen die twijfelt om buiten Tokyo te reizen: deze video is je teken om te gaan! πŸš„πŸŒΈ

  3. Wow, this quality is top-notch! Seeing Narita and Sawara looking so authentic makes me want to pack my bags right now. Definitely adding these to my bucket list! 😍
