Life doesn’t always go to plan, so when bears and other things foiled our plans to visit one of Hokkaido’s most beautiful wetlands, we embraced the bumps in the road that are all part of vanlife in Japan and set out on a spontaneous adventure to the northernmost point in Japan known as Cape Soya (Soyamisaki). Buckle yourself in for a 5 hour road trip with Japanese campsites, crazy roadside station features, Hokkaido exclusive conbini food hauls, stunning inaka (countryside) scenery, Hokkaido wildlife, and (what feels like) one of our biggest Japan vanlife achievements yet!
🚐 See more of Hokkaido!

May you have many north to celebrate. Omedetou.
キウイさん🥝とベアさん🐻が今、北海道を旅しているんだなぁと、遠い茨城県から思っています。楽しく素敵な動画をいつもありがとうございます。
2人、仲良くて感動する。
キウイさん🥝、なんて聡明なの‼︎

登山といえばやはり・・・グラノーラかあ
カップヌードルかと思った
Those unexpected detours always wind up being the most interesting and fun, because it's something you never expected. 💕
ぇーと途中に出てる鳥の模型はペンギンではなくオロロン鳥です その道路の名前になってる
セイコマではホットシェフのおにぎりや弁当が美味しいよ
北海道は本当に何処にでも多くの野鳥や動物に遭遇します。
また海も鯨やイルカにシャチもアザラシも、一部の場所ですがとうきょうとがりネズミとかラッコも居ますよ、私は鶴が好きです。
We know the feeling, our plans have changed so many times while traveling here in Hokkaido. Have you guys seen any bears yet? We only see many foxes. You’re lucky to see an eagle though. We haven’t seen one close yet.
Kiwi had very naturalistic make up in this video , almost Korean style, looked very nice
熊が出たのかと思いました。
何も無い区間が北海道には多いので、車の燃料は十分な給油でドライブして下さい。食べてはいないけど、セイコーマートのゆでトウキビも美味しいそうです。
Sometimes unexpected events might happen in the way, but it doesn't affect the entire van tour.
Bears giant birds dragons and dinosaurs – Hakkaido truly is the mythical land of the north!
その先にロシアの原子力潜水艦がウヨウヨしてると思うと激しく憤りを感じます。北海道を護ろう！
A good day for driving at least! Hokkaido is really beautiful even from the road.
I enjoyed this new style of vlogging from you guys. Extended time and much of the interaction seemed more spontaneous and just goofing around was fun to watch
"I've never seen so much nothing"… Aussies: "Hehe, hold my beer…"
A country s territory extends twelve nautical miles if they have a coastline so technically the Northern most pt of Japan is somewhere off into the ocean you were staring at
From the thumbnail I thought you guys had run over a Bear or been mauled by one 😬
