  1. 私はタイと台湾が好きです。国民性が素晴らしく、人がとても温かかったです。
    日本の夏は蒸し暑いので、熱中症に気をつけて下さいね~🤗

    私は日本に住む日本人です。日本は治安も良いし、食べ物も美味しいし、良い国です。だけど、とても複雑な国です。様々な問題を抱えています。日本には日本を嫌いな人達が沢山居て、日本を弱体化させようとする人達が沢山居ます。詳しくは語りませんが、….。
    これからの日本はもっと弱体化していくと思います。若い人達のことを考えると凄く心配です。

  2. Living the dream 🥰. I should've done what you are doing when I was younger. But I just never thought of it. I was too busy with "life". Getting caught up with what your parents want you to do with your life versus what you want to do with your life, plus love life, career, buying a home, etc. Everything that's expected of you. And now that I'm almost 60, I think back and wonder what my life would be like if I had followed my dreams of traveling the world. I'm lucky to have finally gotten off my ass to take the plunge and visit a foreign country. And I chose Japan. With the encouragement of friends with similar interests, I was able to go in 2016. I fell so in love with the place, I went back 4 times. Maybe I'll get the courage one day, to sell my belongings and finish my life while traveling the world. I plan on visiting Japan, one more time, then Thailand next. Your videos helped in that decision. Thanks for the content. Keep up the great work. Much love and good luck to you and your family. ❤

  3. 本当に日本に戻って来たんですね!お帰りなさい❤。今度はぜひ餃子は酢とコショウだけで食べてみてください!

  4. From Hokkaido to Okinawa, we are waiting for your wonderful family in spring, summer, autumn and winter! From Japan!

  5. Loved this! Its been so fun watching your family travels…we all watch "those big travel channels " BUT i love watching families like yours doing it with 3 kiddos while schooling and working and filming!! Big props! Way to go after your dreams! Thanks for showing us a glimpse

  6. Summer in Japan is hot. In order to compensate, try summer veggies like cucumbers and tomatoes with sesame dressing. Don't forget grapes, peaches, water melons and melons. Make sure that they are made in Japan.

  7. You are a great man‼
    It's the first time I've seen someone stop the conveyor belt😆
    You may already be a legend in Japan🤭

  8. Love your videos and understand your fascination with Tokyo. I’m in Kyoto right now, and I like that BUT Tokyo is soooo much cleaner.

  9. I can't agree more about your thoughts on Japan. The best thing I like about Japan is how safe it is. I enjoy walking outside past midnight just enjoying the silent ambience of the city without having to worry about anything. If I were hungry I'd just grab a snack at 7 eleven or eat a beef bowl at Yoshinoya. If I wanted to socialize, I would just go to a random bar out of the thousand available and randomly meet the nicest most cheerful people having a good night. It's packed with so much uniqueness and dream-like vibes. It's really something else.

  10. I am jealous of you because Fukuoka is in my bucket list. If you are still in Fukuoka, please go to Fukuoka City Museum. This is my very personal obsession, but I love a samurai called "Kuroda Kanbei." Fukuoka City Museum has many treasures of Kuroda Kanbei. Also please go to Fukuoka Castle. It was built by Kuroda Kanbei's son, Kuroda Nagamasa. I love to go to these places in person. I love to see these in your channel! Please!

  11. I am a Japanese viewer.
    Thank you for liking Japan.

    It must be a great place to visit on vacation. But I think it is hard to live in Japan for a long period of time.
    The country is prone to disasters (especially earthquakes) and the government offices are not efficient, so you will need a lot of paperwork and time.

    You both want the convenience of the city, but on the other hand, Japanese people who live in the city want the inconvenience. They want what they don't have. hahaha That's why many people go camping on their days off!

    Also, in the city, there is no particular interaction with neighbors, so some foreigners feel cold.
    In rural areas, you will be able to get to know your neighbors closely and experience the warmth of people.

    Tourists often go to famous cities, but I recommend going to rural areas.
    Around famous tourist spots, it may be more convenient to speak English as well. However, you will not feel like you are in Japan because of all the tourists around you.
    By visiting places other than the famous ones, you will get to know the real Japan.
    There are many cultures and foods that you should know more about.

    I also admire your lifestyle because I believe that by coming into contact with various cultures and gaining new ways of thinking, we can develop our human skills.

    I look forward to more videos from you!

    I wish you all a happy and prosperous future!

  12. 日本に何回もきてくれて嬉しいです😊ありがとう。

    これからの時期は日本はとても暑くなります☀️🥵 夏になるとスーパー、ドラッグストアなどでも塩の飴や夏限定のドリンク、濡れると冷たくなるタオルなど色々な物が売ってます。涼しい場所や↑の商品などで熱中症対策してくださいね。

    とても暑い時期が来ますが、日本の夏祭りがやってきます。色々な場所でお祭りや花火🎆などさまざまなイベントがあります。日本人もお祭りが好きなので、その場所が混むことは必須ですが、日本らしさがわかると思います。

    日本旅行楽しんで!
