AIZU ADVENTURE Part 2 | Northern Japan Travel

[@reasons4171]

I love how Sharla is like always smiling.

[@TakoyaKyono]

I love Japanese history when it comes to the warring state period. My first ever experience of the history was of me picking up a book on the topic from the school library as a kid because "It had funny writing" on the spine. Book was about Oda Nobunaga, and I fell in love with all the detailed pictures of weapons and armour. Next time I'm in Tokyo, I'll be visiting the graves of the 47 Ronin.

[@heyitssharla]

Nice! That will be a cool experience. I really like visiting grave sites.

[@shdwstrm]

I love these videos. I love seeing the unique and historic parts of Japan. Thank you for sharing this with us

[@mizusenshisongs]

The cat stationmaster! I've read about him! Such a cute cat. I've heard he does quite a good job (as did his predecessor).

[@bellaxfatal]

I love that you and Simon and Martina did a collaboration together. And, I love seeing these parts of Japan. Thank you for sharing them with us!

[@50ShadesofFandom]

Watching those little old ladies teaching Simon was the cuuuuuuuuuuuuutest haha ♥ It makes me so happy seeing you guys in each others' videos!

[@heyitssharla]

They were so sweet ;-; It was such a cool experience learning from them, I wish we could have stayed all week!!

[@shdwstrm]

I spy a wild Simon and Martina in the background!!!

[@Mark-OutWest]

These two were my favorite road trip videos: food, sights, and some culture.

[@eatyourkimchi]

NOTIFICATION SQUAD!

[@stephkally]

Simon and Martina hey

[@heyitssharla]

Simon and Martina ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶

[@David04901]

Sharla in Japan v

[@AtomicGirlPow]

I loved, loved, loved this video. I have been a martial artist for 28 years and counting. Naginata was the traditional weapon of onna bugeisha.

[@heyitssharla]

Nice! What do you practice? :D

[@user-ag670]

Thanks Sharla! I'm really proud of my hometown Aizu(^^)

[@duckiedok]

I loved it when we visited the castle! We went there before going to meet our host family. Then the next day, my host dad and me walked to the castle and watch some people do kendo in the early morning!

[@SamiSpoon]

Omg the little old lady teaching you moves is so wonderful, I want to hang out with her hah This region honestly looks so great, thank you for sharing. These kind of vlogs always make me teary eyed, I guess I am just so thankful to be able to experience these things through your vlogs

[@zarunoki7345]

動画、面白かったよ！ いつも楽しい動画アップ、ありがとう！ 応援してます！

[@miraigaming37]

I wish my cats did something productive like a stationmaster.

[@heyitssharla]

I've been trying to teach Maro how to edit forever, he's still in the mashing the keyboard phase but he's getting there

[@miraigaming37]

Sharla in Japan oh that silly Maro XD

[@favforsue]

Sharla in Japan Be careful, if he actually figures it out we'll be watching Maro in Japan instead.

[@sheikahchic]

This really is such a beautiful area, and i cannot wait to explore all of it!!! BUT THE KITTY THOUGH!!!!

[@pinkpirulita]

Sharla, you look like such a nice person; you are kind to people, never mean. A good friend! I love your personality. God bless you and thanks for sharing your experiences in Japan!

[@bcgrote]

The neko looks like and American Curl, with the inside out ears, but his colors were like Maru. So sweet! What a beautiful area, with nice people and great food. Definitely adding it to my list!

[@rielamarcellis]

Took me by surprise the Naginata class was only imparted by old ladies, but I did some research and it looks like is mainly a woman's art and is studied by women more than men in Japan, is the opposite in Europe. I guess I learned something new thanks to this video, thanks Sharla.

[@LaNoir.]

It's not completely focused on it but you might find Fushigi Yuugi Genbu Kaiden a good read, the heroine fights with a naginata and there are some explanations to it

[@Jeniltonification]

In cherry blossom season that would be my dream, what a breathtaking place!

[@BrettVano]

Thank you as always for your videos Sharla! I just watched parts 1 & 2 while sipping some whisky. It was a great way to relax!

[@walkingmochi]

The cat is sooo cute omg!

[@mizzuniqua]

Tsuruga-jo is the coolest castle I've been to! I loved learning about Yae-san. Aizu has such an interesting and rich history! Next time you go, you gotta visit the bukeyashi and the byakkotai grave site!

[@heyitssharla]

mizzuniqua Yessss I'm sad I missed that!! Will definitely have to go back!!

[@dothetwist298]

bukeyashiki is an absolutely awesome place!!!

[@kenichinishikawa7007]

I miss Japanese hotel, food and beautiful scenes, these videos make me homesick even I have been living in US for almost forty years. We went to Tokyo and kyoto this January we enjoyed our visit.

[@WingedClaymore4]

Beautiful! The castle especially!

[@lynnmeyers1974]

This place looks amazing! And so beautiful. I always enjoy your videos. I am going to add it to my list of places to visit next I am in Japan!

[@hannerzz6485]

wow the castle is so beautiful💙

[@LittleLaanekas]

Thank you for introducing us Japan in such an personal and unique way. I love your videos and plan to visit Japan in the future because of your amazing videos. Keep up the good work 😉😊

[@Aneth_Ara]

I knew it had something to do with kitties when you said we'd like it! I was not disappointed :3 Such a good boy ;3;

[@solanine9249]

お箸の使い方が上手で驚きました。 自然が多くて素敵ですね！

[@sunjewel63]

Burdock is awesome ❣️ putting this high in my list for the 2016 trip! Thank you Sharla for everything you do and everything you show us ❤️

[@ghostwriter6455]

I love these kind of videos, its nice to see new playes of Japan everytime!!! Keep going like that Sharla

[@sunnyville21]

the cat! sharla the cat omg! haha what a cuddle monster! adorable!

[@はなまるあたま]

I introduce my hometown, and thank you! The one which seemed to be fun came! I was very glad to look!

[@amadeoludovico8328]

The second you said burdock I had flashbacks to my childhood and now have major craving for dandelion and burdock.

[@5dette]

I love this adventure! ahhh can't wait to visit this spring!

[@mrajread]

I'm new to your videos and I think they're fantastic! I really appreciate how much effort you put into the filming, and the background tracks are so suited to the footage. This is a great way for me to see all the quirky little things about the Japanese way of life. Thank you! :)

[@dianabeets5854]

awww love the cat,cant believe he is wearing that hat.so well behaved

[@neuroturdo]

Sharla looked really good through out this whole video.

[@HolliePeters]

aaah the station master cat is so adorable!! I wish every station had one!

[@Hannah-xi1bs]

I really love to see your vlogs and travels sharla!

[@MephistoRolling]

thats so interesting how they put the fitted sheet on the quilt like that. ive never seen that before. but i guess it makes for easy cleaning.

[@zoomingjapan]

Oh, they're copying the original Tama station master! But then again I think every single station in Japan should have one. ;) Yeah, Aizu is awesome. I went there once in winter. Long, long before the quake and tsunami hit. There was sooooooo much snow. I've been back to Tohoku a few times, but never to Aizu. I wanna go again! :D

[@RaschellXuan]

China and Japan have such amazing historical stories, I wish I could find books to read and learn more

[@にほんものごとチャンネル]

Thank you for introducing my hometown(aizu) to everyone!

[@thelazybug4441]

Oh my gosh! Ever since I read a book where the main character used a naginata, I've wanted to try it ^^

[@Kasanemangaidv]

OMG YOU WERE WITH SIMON AND MARTINA!!!! JEALOUS!!!!

[@barry3565]

Thank you ! Your video reminds me when I was there years ago !

[@panama-canada]

This is amazing! I'd easily stay there for a week!!

[@lissya3657]

the kitty made me cry. so cute

[@sfukuda512]

Uh oh. Maro will be jealous if he sees this cat hanging out with Sharla. The countryside looks beautiful. If I were a cat, I'd want to grow up there.

[@LadyLasarAlphaWolf]

The area was so beautiful! I felt all zen watching you lol 😂🤓👍

[@darkraven2116]

Every time I saw Dan in both this video and part one I got so excited xD

[@elizabethfuselier821]

I had to stop and make breakfast before finishing watching.. this video made me so hungry.

[@SuperMadumadu]

Wow! I need to meet that cat. Super helpful videos Sharla, hope to visit Aizu soon x

[@valentinxpavez8964]

so soothing... I hope you had a great time!

[@syrenawebb2605]

yay, Simon and Martina are there to!

[@MargoBTS]

Cutest station master ever!!!

[@panama-canada]

You make very nice and positive vids. Love them!

[@RandyHartono]

Japan is like a dream land...

[@shuggie00]

あ～!!鶴ヶ城だ!!　春は桜満開ですごくキレイだよ～

[@sharlainjapan]

絶対キレイですよねー！春に観に行きたいです！^0^

[@DespoAMV]

All of your videos about Japanese culture and beautiful places make me kind of sad that I won't be able to visit Japan for another few years

[@jenniferburns7912]

NABU WAS SO CUTE OMG IM GONNA CRY

[@Bicth97]

this reminds me of my time in japan in 2013 i want to go back so bad my heart is burning!!!

[@tally1604]

Found your channel through Simon & Martina. Subscribed. You're very fun. Great channel

[@deeprose4]

Burdock root is made into tea in the U.K. a lot, and then they make a fizzy drink called dandelion and burdock

[@Syrephine]

That looked beautiful and Awesome. Surprised that you didn't hold onto the kitty more like Simon, he was like not wanting to share. We were planning on going up that way.

[@casscena7934]

7:00 a wild Dan! xD This looks like such a beautiful getaway.

[@DjiMajd]

Really really loved this video, amazing job!

[@irismuddyhehe]

so lovely!! actually while you showed all the tasty food i was wondering if vegan stuff is weird or unknown there and then you mentioned they made it for you. so cool!

[@GregandSara]

Looks like such a nice place to visit!

[@pvo770]

Спасибо за экскурсию. А косички, это мило. 😄

[@SIG442]

Nice outfit! I like it! :) A castle is usually ready for 1 or 2 months of siege, however there are differences between European castles and Japanese castles. For example, a western castle often had just 4 or 5 occupying it and did NOT have a huge army in it as movies make you believe. It is obviously impossible due to needing the food and space for all those people. In some cases castles could hold out for a lot longer, in rare cases even up to 2 years. Yet Japanese castles are usually having a lot more people in them. Which takes down the food and other resources that you can store inside your walls and thus decrease the time you can stay inside while under siege. This would cause the castle to be all out very quickly and you are forced to open your doors within a month. I seen 4 of them before, the one pointed at, the 9 dots, top left and second from the right.

[@Skippzy92]

You made me fall in love with Aizu :) thank you!

[@magnetisedtoyou1415]

The cat looks so cute with the cop hat >.< And the place was very pretty

[@chiefj9767]

Really like what you're doing😃 thank you.

[@JamieBanksTravel]

Another great video Sharla!

[@boot-strapper]

I am so jealous of all of this. I want to go here.

[@ToranJShaw]

Mixed with Dandelion, Burdock makes a great drink!

[@Davy_Backlog]

You've done it again, Sharla. Now I want to add a stop to Aizu to my future Japan trip. That ryokan looked downright amazing, and Nabu-chan is too adorable for words! ^_^

[@Davy_Backlog]

^This is 12thSupernovaBepo btw (new name). :D

[@geronimo713]

my keyboard is broken so ill make it short but really love your videos thanks a lot!!!!! i watch all of your videos and mimei's and rachel and juns' and every other super cool youtubers.... please tell theim when u see theim i find the way japan changes foreigners very beautyful

[@Sweetchik2007]

so that's an idea of what a Ryokan is like? LOVE IT! How much was it? Meals are usually included in the cost right? I've only had Agedashi Tofu once but it was sooo good and just packed with flavor. So rich that little serving filled me right up! I'm happy I'm a pescetarian and don't have to worry about egg and seafood product but if I ever get to visit Japan I do need to figure out how to explain I can't have any other meat/animal type product (broths, sauces with animal base and such). Everything was so beautiful! Thank you for sharing!

[@kiera1hypatia]

SO COOL! Looks absolutely beautiful.

[@Jacksonart55]

If you ever go to Tsuruga castle, make sure you learn about Nijima Yae! She's really cool! (And I brought all of her merchandise so who am I kidding lmao...) Also I went a year after the nuclear accident and carried a dosimeter around the entire trip. I went MUCH closer to the site than Aizu and I promise the radiation in this part of Fukushima is background and safe (:

[@kittenbee2984]

Yay I've been waiting for this video!💕

[@fartzinwind]

Happened to hit refresh button early squad!

[@shiokochi5366]

yaaaay I've been waiting for this video, awesome ♡♡

[@ejemoxmox22]

Loving the travel videos

[@Slycarlo]

Sharla can you do a vid about driving a car/bike in japan havent see to much vid regarding about it and btw you look absolutely astonishing with your outfit it really match with your hairstyle you look gorgeous

[@nikolairalowicz3392]

What's the name of the hotel you stayed in? I definetely want to stay there if/when I visit Japan!

[@heyitssharla]

Harataki Ryokan in Aizuwakamatsu City!! Definitely recommend!! :D

[@nikolairalowicz3392]

Thanks!

[@rapi1000]

朝ごはんのおかずを紹介していた場面にて、海苔が乗った白い冊状の野菜を『大根？・・』と紹介されておりましたが、もしかしたら粘りのある山芋ではなかったでしょうか。

[@keziahb.5485]

Sharla would u do a Q&A about your new job? it would be so helpful to not only me, but plenty of others who are seeking to go to Japan and would one day love to land a job like that. Thank u if you do!~

[@IshmaelVargas]

HA! I knew that was you! (context: Was just watching Simon and Martina's version of the video and I was like "Is that Sharla??"). A crossover would've been totally awesome.

[@yeroun1974]

The Stationmaster cat is really cute. Can you really see him every day? I say this because I went to see Nitama, the stationmaster cat from Kishi station, but he had two days off, and I was there on one of his days off. Would have been nice if they had said on their homepage when he was there, because then you don't have to disappoint people.

[@stayinurlainey]

Yay been waiting for part 2! and yay i'm early!

[@carolynal-shiblawi434]

so beautiful place love you and video awesome
