Are you planning a trip to Japan? This video is definitely not your typical “best things to do in Tokyo” video. In this video, you’ll spend a week with me and explore lesser-known areas near and around Tokyo.
However, this video is the ninth episode of my Japan Travel Series and week five of my winter 2022 Japan trip. By this time, I was feeling the exhaustion from traveling and didn’t have any set plans except to explore and help my dad look at different areas to live.
This is a jam-packed episode filled with Japan travel tips, things to do, places to eat, and more! I hope you enjoy it and find new things to add to your own Japan travel itinerary! #japantravel #japanvlog

ABOUT ME
Hi! I’m Remi. A Japanese-American millennial navigating adulthood in Los Angeles. I was born in Fukuoka, Japan but was adopted and raised in Los Angeles, CA.
I love playing tourist in my own city and discovering new places to visit (& eat)!
My mission is to encourage people to be tourists in their own cities by sharing my experiences with the world.
You’ll discover places to visit in Los Angeles/Southern California and get an understanding of what it’s like to live in LA.
I’ll also take you with me as I continue to learn more about Japan and my Japanese heritage.
Thanks so much for watching!

This helps me remember what a wonderful place Japan is to visit and makes me look forward to visiting again. I love that you’re highlighting quieter areas. Thank you.
Easily one of my new favorite channels. No pressure to post every week but whenever you do, your sincerity and thoughtfulness really comes across.
Excited for our Japan trip in 2 weeks, not to mention staying in Sumida City! Your travel tips are much appreciated as someone who also needs to get away from crowds once in a while.
Hi! Firstly, amazing work done in all your blogs! Have been following them since the first Japan video! 😂 and always looking forward to your post! Am currently planning a trip to japan too, and was wondering where did you stay at when you were in Tokyo?
I have been to Japan but never seen that part of Tokyo station. Enjoyed it a lot.

I definitely enjoyed all the videos. I need to verify that I have watched them all. Did you purchase the JR pass and Suica/Pasmo card? I cannot wait to see your next Japan adventures. Thanks for all the tips. I am sure you have more.

Planning a stay cation with the kids to tokyo next month and leaning toward staying in Yokohama or Kawasaki. Thanks for sharing all your adventures!
I love the fog! Here in San Francisco CA we even named it Karl the Fog lol
Just video everything and edit when you get home….pro tip
I have been watching your vlogs for a while now to get some ideas for future Japan visit ( its my dream to visit the country) but what I enjoy about you is the relationship you have with your dad and how to take time to spend it with him and create quality memories that for sure will last a life time. Enjoy what you can with your dad, I miss mine everyday and I wished I could have made more memories with him. Anyways cant wait for your next adventure xoxo

Hi! I’m traveling to Japan the last two weeks of December. Did you experience anything being closed because it’s the last week on the year? I remember reading something about this, but unsure if it might have been when covid was more prevalent.
