Hi Rachel!!! I love your videos been binge watching watching all of them!! I’m so happy for you to go to Japan!!! So jelly!!! Pleas be safe and have fun and make lots more videos so I can continue binge watching!!! ❤❤❤❤

Thank you Raquel! ❤ You’ve certainly been busy with your work, jetting here & there! Take good care of yourself! 😊

Yaaaas TN TOKYO! I have the same one!!! ❤❤❤

What a relaxing video omg, instantly subscribed.

Do any of these Japanese stationary shops ship internationally? I don’t hear anyone talking about it, and the western stores I’ve seen that supply some of the items mark them up by a good 40-50%.

Thanks for sharing. You have a nice collection. I got an A5 Cousin, a Denali pencil board, and the snow globe Weeks.

Raquel everything is so awesome!!! I really enjoyed your video and that Toool box is chef kiss ❤❤❤

What is it with experience coffee and papers. 🤔

So lovely! Thanks for bringing us along on your journey. I wonder if Hobonichi will ever do a shop or something in Europe? Pretty please! And loved your talk through of the yumi cover and why you bought it. I love the designs inside too, what a cool feature for a cover. And totally enjoyed seeing all the stationery hauls... what a dream! I am very much into using the pouches for stationery... I think there are a lot of makeup pouch type things, but they totally work for stationery to organize items. And BTW Longchamp has ring agendas, so it's like stationery adjacent :) LOL

I see a rockypaperscissorsco video, I like 👍

It was so nice meeting you! Hope to see you again in SoCal! <333

Such a great haul! 🤩 I loved your choice and reason for your cover this year and I’m excited to see how your collection grows 💕 manifesting I make it out to NYC so we can have a proper journal date ✨ missing you from sunny SoCal!

I agree it is special, and although I do not have it, I can imagine it feels great to hold. I am also grateful you specified the size in your description. I always have trouble choosing the right size. I can’t believe I still have that problem

I met you at the LA Pop-up event! Thank you for inviting us to partake in the food too 😄 After seeing your A5 and simmering on it for a looong while, I decided to size up from an A6 to an A5 for next year.

Very thorough haul! Thanks for sharing! I definitely added a few spots I didn’t have on my list already! We are headed to Japan this week for the first time!

I love your insight on Hobonichi! Yes! I wish the book came in English!!

My mom bought one kislux and she loves it. It had been there for over 10 years when she went out with it.

love the lightening but maybe get a warmer light for the vibes ahahah

Going to Japan on my honeymoon in 4 weeks time and this has made me SO excited for all of the stationery shops (even more so than I already was)! I'd love to know how much you spent on your haul 😱

Coming back here because I just realized I never posted my comment?? 😂 Anyway, I love this haul! The stickers are so adorable and I love how everything is so on theme!

Loved your haul and the English guidebook! 😍

I wanted to get the taut cover, but how will you keep it closed since it has no butterfly stopper or TN band? If you put a band around it, it will wear and patina a line around it. Curious what you think for keeping it closed?

I would love the English guidebook. I got the new Hon with the night sky scene, the cousin, the pink and yellow cover, and the transparent cover with the dogs 🐕 with the floppy ears.

I think the Orange Hollyhocks is one of the best Liberty patterns they’ve ever produced 🤗 Enjoyed recognizing your voice (!!) at the Hobo Preview Party in Brooklyn ✨ Happy Hobonichi season 📚

i’m really conflicted on whether i want a cousin or the avec.. is it hard to write in the cousin after a while? that’s a concern of mine 😅

I LOVE the floral cover you picked. I'm totally kicking myself for overlooking that one. So pretty! Love seeing how fluffed up your a5 is getting. I got SOOOO many things. The designs this year totally got me. Everything from Hiroko Kubota this year totally tugged at my heartstrings. And also SUSHI! Totally did a haul video too and I have been watching tons of them too ha ha.

I would love to have the guide in English! Loved that you shared it with us! It was super beautiful! I would love to have one and save it in my journal!!❤❤❤

Gorgeous leather cover in brown. Amazing purchase.

Hello! For 2025 I picked an aka tweeded style Brauberg planner, cuz Hobonichi is hella expensive for me and won't be probably delivering into my area even 😅

I am recently retired and I do miss using the Jibun Techo.!! I was self employed and after many years in Hobonichi, I switched my work planner to the Jibun Techo and LOVED it so much. I loved the clean look, the paper and yes the book lays flat as well. Some years I used the Biz, other years I used the regular one like ur using.! I debated on getting the B6 slim mini for next year just because I miss my Jibun techo.! Loved ur video, scary setting ur Teddy Blake on the railing like that, lol. I actually sucked in my breath.! Thankful it did not fall.! I wish I had a bigger town near me to journal in a coffee shop.! I live on a dirt road in Small (out of town) Rural Pa. Where everyday I feed the deer, birds, squirrels and yes, raccoons and bear show up too.! Love every minute of it, however once in a while, a coffee shop journaling session would be nice.!

I would love if the guide came in English or both English/Japanese. I have bought 4 guides in the past and put it in my cart this year, than took it back out. I also did not purchase it last year, I just feel I missing out so much info with it all in Japanese.! I hope I receive one of the beginners guides, would love to share that with my granddaughter.! Love ur video, great choices.! Can’t wait to receive my order.!!

The leather cover looks like PU leather, is it genuine leather?

Yay! Hobonichi season! It was very nice chatting briefly with you at the L.A. event. I am impatiently, er excitedly, awaiting my hobonichi order! In the meantime your unboxing is very satisfying, I’m looking forward to part 2

Is her hon English or Japanese version?

OMGEEEE the brown Hobonichi cover is beautiful!!! I got A6 Avec cousin ( I can't do those weekly's any longer) and A5 in day free.

Such a great video! Will the Tombow dual tip fit in the mini Stappo?

Would love to see the guidebook in English!

Beautiful Haul. Wish all orders comes with the beginners guide.

I love the long videos ❤❤

I am going to use the box every year to store my used journals for that year :) I also have an unboxing on my channel if interested ❤❤

Love this haul. By the way, I’ve been using the hollyhocks cover with no coc for a few weeks and I throw my cousin in my bag and don’t baby it and it’s in really good condition, the fabric is really durable. (It’s also so soft you kind of don’t want to cover it up ❤) Hope that helps. Xx

I met you at the pop up in LA, preview.. you were so cool and fun and available for questions and just a nice chat. I love your journal! Thank you for making my first pop up experience so great. 2025 will be my second planner life year. I got the drawer pouches and covers and Hon that I wanted. Yay! Ordering was crazy, as you know. Took me nearly 5 hours to order.. in the end i got the original prices. Cool. Love this vid.

Yes please 😂 guide book in English -been wishing that from last year - my first year with Hobonichi!

It would be nice if the guide has both Japanese and English in it, like that one Hobonichi pamphlet that had both (was it 2023 or 2024?) and was included with the planner. That'll make it more appealing to buy it for me.

I would really like the Hobonichi yearly guides in English as well! I just got this years guide ☺️

You should sticker up the clear cover. That way you can keep black cover and stickers it up

Great video! :) And yes! Would love to have the guide in English.

Love a long chatty haul that shows how you use the product! Bring ‘em on! You have great style! Last year I used the Brownie Plaid with the Dashenka cover on cover. One of my favorites.

you chose such nice products! thank you for sharing! i ordered the pistachio weeks and the yumi kitagishi pencil board for the weeks! 💛

iro iro 色々 means "various" in Japanese. 🙂Probably referring to the various shapes and designs. Great haul! You really made me interested in that brownie plaid one! 🤔 Also, thanks for showing the Stappo mini! I haven't seen anyone else show it. Main thing I'm wondering about with the mini is whether it'll fit a Weeks.
