  1. Oh no! But oh yes! love watching your videos about Japan. I've been obsessed with Japan since high school and took a language class to learn to speak it. However, I'm happy for your family on your new adventure!

  2. What does your husband do? I am trying to find employment opportunities in Japan, but it’s difficult to find anything other than teaching English.

  3. Definitely thought you were going to say Spain! Best of luck to you and your family ❤️

  4. Kanagawa is an underrated area. I love Yokohama and it is such a fun, gorgeous city to walk around in. Of course being close to Tokyo is going to open up your family to so many fun opportunities and possibilities! I loved living in the area for the last couple of years and hope I can return someday.

  5. I’m so excited for this next era for your channel and your family💕💕💕 I’ve been very following you since the first viral tiktok and this new scenery and more opportunities along with watching you navigate toddlerhood soon is going to be so wonderful! So happy and proud of your progress in life.💖

  6. The Marriott in Gotemba is absolutely magical, especially if you can go during the winter. Maybe it was just mine and my husbands experience, but 10/10 recommend a if you’re looking for places to stay near Fuji ☺️

  7. I'll watch any and all parts of this process you're willing to show! It's so interesting to learn different processes for different countries. My main question about your road trip portion: will there be enough rest stops and places to relax? I have IBD so traveling can make me a little anxious and I've always wanted to travel in Japan. Congratulations on the move as it helps both of your careers, however, I understand the stresses of moving so I hope all goes well for you and your family! 💞

  8. Show us the rest area shopping and dining "malls!" And how the freeway tolls work. Oh, the scenery and dog friendly places you can take Gus Gus to! Have a safe journey to Kanagawa! My relatives live in Machida which is near the Kanagawa border 😊 It's known for a squirrel park 😆

  9. 🎉🎉 so exciting for you guys. Hope your find the best house with great views. Can't wait for the house content.

  10. Aww im so happy for you and your family, I can't wait to see the videos you're going to make in the future! 🥹❤

  11. So looking forward to your videos in Kanagawa! I’ve done homestay twice there and the people are soooo nice 😭❤️ can’t wait for some travel inspo in the area for when I visit later in the year 😊

  12. @tokyoportfolio Alex, is a realtor in the Tokyo area. He's helping Chris Abroad (@abroadinjapan) and Sharla in Japan find a house in the Tokyo area. There's some really cool looking houses in the area.

  13. I love love love Kanagawa!! It’s the first preference I lived in. It’s perfect because if you are still so close to Tokyo but you have the countryside too. So close to Shizuoka also with hot springs, scuba diving and waterfalls. So excited for you and your family you’re going to love it 🙌❤️

  14. I'm so glad you're staying in Japan – I follow Sundai too, so that will be a blast for you two!! Looking forward to your journey!

  15. Omg! I can’t believe it! I’ve been watching your videos for over a year preparing for our move to Iwakuni. Now that we got here a month ago, you are leaving!! It’s so crazy!! We saw you walking on the street our first week here btw and had a “fangirl moment” in the car. Lol.

  16. This is so exciting. Had a feeling with some of your recent posts. I've been following you since SD and absolutely love your content. I've been with my husband for almost 13 yrs and married for 1, and he has wanted to move to Japan for the longest. Your content makes me want to make the move, lol. Thank you for sharing your life! I think it is safe to say we all appreciate and love it. Safe travels.

  17. I lived in Kawasaki and it’s a really nice and big area! Kid friendly and close to Yokohama and Tokyo. ☺️

  18. You are going to LOVE it up here! We’ve been in Yokosuka for almost 7 years and there is so much to do. If you want a view of Mt. Fuji, look in Hayama and Zushi as well as Kamakura!

  19. Ahhh! I'm so excited for you!! I remember you hinting at moving to Spain, so it's interesting you're staying in Japan! Ahhhh!! ❤ and to have family there. I'm so happy for you guys.

  20. I'm not sure where they live exactly, I'd have to look, but I'd love to see you collaborate with Rachel and Jun! 🩷

  21. Oh my goodness! Congrats!!! I can’t wait for all the fun moving content. I can’t believe it’s been 3 years since I first watched your YouTube videos and watched your first moving vlog. It will be bittsweet for sure but you’re gonna have so much fun! Maybe we’ll be in Tokyo at the same time now! I was sad we didn’t have time to see Iwakuni in our travel plans.

  22. Good luck with the move! Sending you and your family lots of good vibes!! Through the whole video I was like what about Gus Gus?! 😂 Lots of new smells for him I’m sure!

  23. Yay! I’m also from Kanagawa and there’s a lot of things to do here. I hope you find a nice home and enjoy your stay.

  24. My sister was living in Shonan, Kanagawa. She loved there. It's close to Tokyo, but it's not that busy like Tokyo. But you will be so surprised because Iwakuni and that area is SO different.

  25. Some of my fav Japan creators are King Kogi, Internationally Me and Kim Dao! Would love to see a collab with any of those lovely ladies ❤

  26. Best wishes on your new adventure! I appreciated that you SHARED the Japenese country side with us. We would love to stop by your old stomping grounds as tourists when we come to Japan to get to experience the culture of the country life.

  27. Kanagawa is a great area with lots of amazing places. I live in the Izu Peninsula with my husband and 3 month old boy, so if you're ever wanting recommendations for this area then let me know! We have some amazing scenery here.

  28. Love this! Kamakura is beautiful and so easy to navigate! I've been in Yokosuka visiting family for the last two weeks and it is honestly gorgeous.

  29. I knew you will move to Japan, I am happy for your family and your relatives are also moving to Japan so wow busy. I would like to suggest, Bassett's bouken. She lives in not Kamakura area but in Yokohama.

  30. If you want see Mt.Fuji from Kanagawa you need find a house close to Enoshima.
    You can see Mt.Fuji from there, mainly on winter but not all year as far I know.

    He is too far.
