Some facts about us:
We like traveling! โ๏ธ
We’re still trying to figure out this Youtube thing.
If we get famous and make crazy money, we want to donate a lot of it.
We don’t want to make people feel bad and jealous when they see our adventures, but to feel inspired and excited about all the opportunities out there.
We LOVE food. Maybe that’s evident in some of our videos lol ๐ (our favorite thing is unlimited breakfast at hotels)
We love our families and friends and miss them a lot when away.
We want to go to 50 countries! Life is short!

Went in November 2019 to Hiroshima with my parents. Both born after World War II, while neither grandparent fought in the Asian part of the war, visiting the museum is a must when visiting the city. We started from the bridge and walked through the park on the way to the museum. The museum itself was just so quiet when walking through it, because it is incredibly in your face about what happened. As a student of Japanese language and history. It is tough to say that it was or was not worth the use of nuclear weapons. Japan could have surrendered the next day, but it did not, and sadly forced a second bombing of Nagasaki. Did the bombings prevent a land attack, yes it did which may have killed more civilians and soldiers. After visiting Hiroshima, you can easily say, humans can do some pretty bad things to each other.
Thank you so Much For sharing this. I am From Japan and this hits close too me. I will be going to this place as soon as I go to Japan! Domo Arigato! ๐
Kiaora, i'm from New Zealand, WWII was a huge part of our history because we lost so many people for such a small country. We had only a pop of 1.6mill and sent nearly 1 in 10 people. and of that 1 in 10 didn't come home. We were envolved from the start in 1939, where America didnt come in until 1941… Also to this day we don't allow nuclear ships in our waters, allies or not….. It was a massive punch in the face and feel very lucky and privileged to visit Hiroshima in 2019. ….. #nuclearfree
The car couldn't pass through, so please walk more along the edge of the road.
I would love to visit the Apple perk you were born and raised in.
There should be no war. I hope the world will be at peace as soon as possible.
When I was a kid (30 years ago), there were many more tragic exhibits. Concrete walls with human-shaped stains, for example. In addition, survivors of the atomic bombing were giving explanations to visitors and guiding them around the museum.
All Japanese must visit Hiroshima and Nagasaki when they are students. And even as adults, we visit it spontaneously several times.
There was a 95-year-old exposed couple close to me. They were very calm and gentle, and they were married to each other as cousins.
Can exposed person have children? Could it be inherited? and because of discrimination against unknown exposed person , many of them had to give up their marriage.
Thank you for visiting Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park.
I hope many people will watch this video of yours ๐ฑ๐ฑ

The day you visit the Peace Park and the museum is definitely a tough day. I recommend setting aside a day for this, and only this. It was such an emotional experience I just needed sit somewhere in quiet contemplation the rest of the day. I am grateful to have been able to ring the Peace Bell in the park.
