A LONG JOURNEY TO SEE MY DAD | Family Travel in Japan

This is a travelogue of Japanese mom and daughter. On the road, trouble can happen. I just wanted to say thank you so much to everyone who helped us on this trip!
Now Moto(Dad) is mostly in Kochi for work. He's there to help open a restaurant in a hotel we've been to before. Since he can't come back to home, Sutan and I went to see him! It's a 900km (600miles) trip to Kochi.

Sometimes trouble happens on a trip. I just wanted to say thank you so much to everyone who helped us on this trip❤️! Now, Moto (Dad) is mostly in Kochi for work. He is here to help opening a restaurant in a hotel where we have been before. Since he can't come back very often, Sutan and I went to see him! It is a 900km (600miles) trip to Kochi.

Trips can be tough and scary when you get lost. That's why it's such a blessing to encounter such kind folk willing to help 🥰

私は3年間ぐらいに徳島四国に住みましたすごく遠いでしょう東京から 😮 ✈️

[@satyakawale1487]

Moe can you please make a video on skin care because your skin is really beautiful and this video was really good it is amazing that how sutan is growing so fast Love from India

[@engrviki3490]

Sutan 🥰😘🐥💙

[@fujiko38]

今年から 拝見させていただいております。今回の動画に感激して返信？にコメントしております。KZbinのいろいろが、まだわからなくてごめんなさい。小さなすーちゃんと二人旅お疲れ様でした 私も、もえさんと同い年の娘が幼かった頃 娘を連れてこのような旅を繰り返してきました。もえさんとすーちゃんのあれこれや、表情やら拝見しながら 昔を思い出して泣き笑いで拝見してました 笑 モトさんの心温まるお話も素敵で感激😂 私のようなKZbinに縁遠い 末端のウオッチャーですが、もえさんの動画すごく楽しみにしてます 余計ですが 息子がJALに勤務しておりまして😅 ご利用ありがとうございます。笑

[@newbro]

Not only was Sutan behaving so well during the trip, she was posing and cheering her mom up in the tough time. I am so happy you two are raising her the way you are.

[@dawnforlife]

Sutan was so cheerful! That was so sweet, it warms my heart!

[@JMarieCAlove]

Well there are a lot of parents who are great in how they raise their children, too.

[@chrisegbertky]

@@JMarieCAlove of course however that doesn't preclude us for praising Moe san and Moto san.

[@rinardman]

If nothing else, this video shows that Sutan has to be the best travel companion in the world! Always entertaining, and full of knowledge, like "You can't buy a bus" and "Bullet train" to keep you informed, and has lots of fans in case you miss your bus and need a ride, or are willing to serve as waiters in a cafe. 😁

[@yuanyuanguo6082]

Could you tell me the name of the stroller, please?

[@TheQuietAmerican.]

It seems like Sutan is past her "terrible twos" and is getting sweeter every week.

[@waisign]

Im here to find this comment and im not dissapointed!

[@DiMacky24]

​@@waisign I have six siblings, and if my memory serves, after 2, the next tough years are 4 or 5 and then 8 or 9 depending on the kid. Then 10-13 is a landmine. Highschoolers get a bad rap, but all of us were well behaved from 14-18 (with a few month-long crises along the way), and then the 20s can be awful but you are too old to throw tantrums and instead just feel terrible inside XD.

[@NM-kx4gj]

Yup!! And now she's on the three-nager phase 🤭

[@bpsara]

@@DiMacky24 my siblings and I were AWFUL as teens 😅

[@Purity10101]

I call them "terrific two's" now 😊 I agree with another commenter about "three-nagers"!

[@ReigneOrShine]

Sutan is a very intelligent kid. She is highly emphatic. She behaved so well because she saw that Moe is having a hard time. No other toddler can be that considerate. Moe and Moto are raising her well. I love your family, your videos and I always learn something about life from you. Thanks so much! Love from Dublin, Ireland

[@Arbee1000]

Sutan is so sweet and considerate, it’s hard to believe she’s a toddler! What a nice traveling companion 😍

[@phoebe5618]

17:10 Sutan really looks like Moe here! Especially when they both smile❤

[@farzanapoly739]

True. Actually she looks like her dad but her attitude and expressions are like her mother.

[@Dkkvl3]

The cutest part 😊

[@hk_travelsk4472]

スータンと一緒に旅行し、幸せでエネルギッシュな気分になったことはとても素晴らしいことです。新しい人と出会い、他の人から思い出を得ることができ、モトサンについてもっと学ぶことができてとても素敵です。😁

[@soniam8709]

Sutan was so cute running around Anpan Man's station and trying to see where the music was coming from - she is so "quirky" - love her.

[@kevinlane7555]

It's beautiful that people were so kind and helpful.....Moto's story of his travels and desire to repay kindnesses shown to him brought a tear to my eye....The two ladies making faces together is priceless

[@damzroxanne6374]

Me too. I got teary-eyed. I'm trying hard not to cry. I love this family

[@AP-qt4mt]

Sutan deserves alot of praise for being such a good girl during the long trip. 😁 Traveling with a 2+ year old especially when things are not going as planned could have been way way harder. Good job Sutan!

[@rosemariemckinley7326]

Sutan is beautiful like her mom. People around the world love you. I'm so glad someone was there to help you. Moto was so happy to see you. Please take care of yourself and each other. Much love from Washington state. Be safe.

[@alainadacosta1222]

It felt like such a precious mother daughter moment at the end with y'all eating ice cream and talking about the day, it made me tear up. It was very heartwarming to hear of people's kindness. Also, I was really impressed the train station had a nice play area

[@cindyan211]

I really love how you show the struggles people face in real life traveling with a toddler, it seemed so real and genuine to me, it’s really the kindness we experience from other people that fill our heart with joy, not all the glory and glams.

[@larissaying1786]

Sutan would definitely be the protagonist of a ghibli movie, when she shouted "bullet train" was sooo cute 😊😍😌

[@michaelbui6618]

It just warms your heart to see a mother and daughter get along so well and smile so much.

[@hussey2323]

Omg @ 5:24 Sutan reaction when she heard the music is sooooooooo adorable 🥰

[@iamacookie7738]

Yes hehe

[@jerryhosford4557]

Sutan is a sweet little angel. And mom is so beautiful, what a wonderful family.

[@cyberqueen7784]

For such a long trip, Sutan handled it well! Watching her play always puts a smile on my face. I really love small kids.

[@nirmala9226]

I was so amazed how kimono mom raised Sutan... She was so behaved and has a very good common sense...

[@natasaperun3242]

What a journey!!! 😍WOW It was incredible flying ✈, driving by train🚆, bus 🚌, car🚗... Sutan behavior like very mature girl. 👸 Hotel is amazing, hot springs made for enjoy and relax! Landscape is breathtaking! I'll waiting for your next video very impatient! Greetings to Sutan, Moe and Moto from Serbia 🇷🇸❤🌃

[@genewilliams6966]

What a lovely little girl. She is so sweet and precocious.

[@chrisegbertky]

This was so sweet! Sutan traveled really well. So sorry you lost your earring! I really appreciate your channel ! You are making a difference in my world, like Moto san, you are sharing your gifts with us. Thank you so much!

[@sinnerssandwich4140]

Things Sutan has taught me: 1. How to make dango 2. How to sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star in Japanese 3. How to make every day fun, and how to have a good time even when traveling all day. 4. You cannot buy a bus. ありがとう、スタン先生 🙇‍♀️

[@meat_loves_wasabi]

One of my most favourite Kimono Mom episode ever… seeing Sutan having so much fun and excitement and her reactions just makes the video so heart warming to watch @6:46 I drunk too much… Sutan is imitating Moe ?🤔😆

[@小田直人-g7m]

Exactly!

[@mariachristoff]

I also went to Kochi to visit the family of a college friend. I was impressed by the friendly and helpful locals!

[@stephaniegeraldine6847]

Such a lovely family. I think many people are kind to you because you are super kind too.

[@meat_loves_wasabi]

Sutan looks so calm and well behave traveling long journey…. @3:13 her thumbs up post 👍🏻 was so funny 😆

[@neqproa]

I love how Sutan is having fun at this trip especially with the Anpanman playground! Great vlog, Moe!

[@jarinchu9595]

Wow!! So kind that one of your fans gave you a ride! How wonderful it is it give and receive others' help while traveling!

[@AlixLopezGlez]

So much to learn and be grateful for when you encounter those experiences, right?..,It makes us more human. You did a great job traveling with Sutan, that also is a learning and empowering experience. Another bonding Mother-Daughter moment! Thank you for the video, hopefully one day Moto can share more stories about his traveling around the world...and I can't wait for the second part!! Much love from Arizona, USA!

[@AP-qt4mt]

All my travel plans are still on hold so I really love seeing the Kimono Family traveling around especially with Sutan 😊

[@okaygimmie]

Moto sounds like he has a lot of interested stories! I hope there would be an episode where he would tell some of those

[@pgshay5455]

Sutan is so cute that everybody would to cuddle her.She is so bright and pure💜💜💜💜

[@kenup7]

もえさんから滲み出る優しさ、もとさん想いの言動に自然に涙が出てきました。 将来こんなに素敵な家族を築きたいなと思います。これからも動画楽しみにしています。

[@fenny3000]

Your channel is one of my favorites. Helps me keep up on my practice of the Japanese language and you both set such a good example for adulthood. I wish you all the best, thank you for all your efforts! Love and the best of health to you all! 🤍☮️

[@danadarson6984]

😀 i thought it was going to be a visit to Moe's father (Sutan's grandfather) 👴

[@jarinchu9595]

same! I was thinking that we might be able to see Moe's hometown growing up!

[@JMarieCAlove]

Me too! I was waiting to see a family reunion! Lol but it’s still a sweet video. Sutan is so sweet and adorable. 😁

[@scottbrown8869]

Soooo cute when she heard the music for Anpan-Man bullet train.

[@azzura7089]

Sutan such cheerful girls even the trip really tiring sutan still looks so cheerful and she quite obedient, she didn't really throw tantrum.. she so cute kuddo to mom

[@jarinchu9595]

It's so wonderful to hear Moto's early stories of travel and experiencing kindness around the world! What a meaningful way to enter the restaurant industry. Looking forward to watching your Q&A video and hearing more of your deeper conversations!

[@nodakamakadon]

I want to hear more about Moto's travels!

[@Laura-er9js]

17:19 Twins 😂❤️ this video was adorable! It's always nice to meet kind people!

[@colleenm9188]

What an exciting trip! I am so glad you had people who helped you and had a very nice experience. It is hard traveling with a child or children alone. So nice to see Moro! Suran really speaks and expresses herself so well! Thank you for sharing your trip!🙏💜

[@simplytina710]

I love how Moe San and Sutan communicate with one another. The trip must be hard for a mom being alone with a toddler, but Sutan is fun to be with. She is such a smart and sweet girl. Kimono mom has been doing a great job in raising her, and Moto San is such a responsible father, working really hard for his family. 😉 I hope to see more of this vlog please, family travel vlogs. 😉

[@nikalovesmakingvideos]

Great happiness see how fast Sutan grow 🥺. She is already a cute little woman 🥰. Greetings! 🇲🇽☺️

Moe, you can give yourself a pat in the back for taking this challenge of a long journey to see Moto in Kochi, you made it!

[@jennalee7229]

What a beautiful location 😍 !!! Thank you moe for making these videos, I know how much effort it is to film, edit, and post these (especially these longer videos!!) so I appreciate how hard you work every week! You have not missed a single Friday, and I am so grateful that you share your life with us. My boyfriend and I look forward to watching these every week, they bring us so much joy! ❤️ so wonderful to see what a bright, funny, smart child sutan is growing up to be. Bless you all ❤️❤️

[@AliceTheChalice]

So happy that a kind subscriber and others helped Moe and Sutan! Moe must have been so stressed and tired! Thank God for those kind people, it truly was a miracle for Moe to meet that same subscriber twice on the trip. God sent help to Moe and Sutan right when they needed it the most! Moe's hard work on this channel also helped connect her to friends around the world! What a beautiful connection. May Jesus bless Moe, Sutan, and Moto to be healthy and happy always! =^o^=

[@Eva-sc2oe]

Thank you for this video Moe! Hearts were coming out of my eyes everytime kawaii sutan comes close to the camera and make faces 😍 Loved the adventures and the beautiful background sceneries as you took us along too! I always feel touched whenever you do a family video... Even with the long distance, I hope your family stays full and happy always! ❤️

0:56 🥰🥰 6:31 "I drunk too much..." (where did she get that phrase from? 🤣🤣) 8:02 ^_^ 11:32 What a good luck to have met those subscribers! I can't stop admiring Moe's minimalist beauty.

[@mydailylife122]

Good morning 🌞 From Tokyo Japan ❤️

[@mariachristoff]

Really enjoyed this video post card. I clicked on the hotel link and Google map to learn more and plan a stay in the future. I laughed out loud when Moe ran across the beautifull suite and screemed happily " We arrived" ! Highlight for me was Moto's share about his experience traveling, the kindness of strangers and giving back through his work in hospitality ! You are a terrific couple !

[@chuckie826]

Moe is a super mom. She took care of Sutan for her first flight, and she could still manage to film, you're amazing Moe! I couldnt even take care of myself plus filming haha

[@pal3803]

So cute to see Moe free and fun after finally seeing her husband. Sutan was adorable as always. Hope you three had a relaxing fun time after all the hardships at the beginning.

[@chanmp13]

Enjoyed watching the vlog trip!! and it is one of Sutan's big adventure i think. Sutanえらい 🥰

[@d3v1n4c]

Such a precious experience, Sutan will grow up to be a fine and kind lady.

Another family travel video!! Moe & Sutan both look so beautiful in the morning sunlight!

[@donnabarrera4304]

Sutan is such a great traveler and so well behaved! It must be hard to not all be together so much! 🫶🏻👏🏻💕

[@larag1764]

Moe deserves congratulations for making such a long voyage with a small child, large luggage and a missed bus. I would have been in tears 😢 Thank you to those kind subscribers who saved Moe and Sutan by driving them safely. I cheered when Moe and Sutan were reunited with Moto 🥰

[@meowchocolate]

Looking forward to the next part! Really loving all these vlogs, can really see Sutan growth

[@hema9305]

Thank you for always reminding me to turn on the subtitles. I often find myself watching the entire video without understanding a word and don’t even realize because I still enjoy it so much. 😂

[@danhill1186]

What a beautiful travel vlog! Thank you very much for making it and allowing us to "travel" with you. 😁 It's so heartwarming to see you encountered so much kindness during your trip! That and Moto's stories are what makes a very inspiring part of your video. It inspires us to do the same and show friendliness and helpfulness to people who might need it. Sutan was a joy to watch, as usual! She's getting cuter and cuter, with her words and gestures 😄 She's also very well behaved during the trip, I've got nothing but admiration for how you have raised her. Looking forward to the second part!

As a daughter of a chef, Moto's story speaks volumes to me and has filled my heart with happiness. My father has a similar story about how he became a chef and got into the restaurant business before he retired. Thank you for sharing something so personal with us, it makes our time on Earth so much better.

[@commanderstraker6732]
