Now here's the most beautiful love story: Me and you? Though we have fallen short of the glory of God by comitting just one sin which we deserve death and hell for, the Good News is that God loved us soo much that He, All-Powerful and All-Knowing Spirit came to earth in a human body as Jesus Christ, the fullness of God bodily, to live a perfect life keeping and fulfilling all laws and commandments, not sinning ONCE, and then sacrificing Himself on a cross for YOU! By shedding His Blood, He paid the penalty for your sin so that you could be washed clean from all sins and develop a personal relationship with God and spend eternity together with Him in Heaven. How awesome is that?! That's God's grace. All you have to do to accept His gift of grace is turn away from your sin and believe that Jesus is God, He shed His precious Blood for you and He is risen from the dead, He's in full control of your life that He rules over you. It's not by works or being a good person, it's only by God's grace through faith in Him. Jesus desires a personal relationship with you. Wow that is so incredible! Please turn to Him, He loves you so much and so do I!!

The best night of going out drinking in my life was in Tokyo this year. Absolutely unmatched energy. Wound up starting at the NY Bar and Grill, met some cool residents from Shinjuku and the next thing you know they're whisking us around until 7am lol. We rolled down at least 8 bars in Golden Gai, added like 3 more people, ate at some crazy local Chinese restaurant in an alley they knew that sat like 7 people and probably had never seen a tourist, and wound up laughing in a heap outside Shinjuku station by the Starbucks as people were starting their work days. Absolute peak adventure. This feels so close to that.

polite is not the same as nice. You can have a really cool evening or otherwise encounter with people, but that doesn't mean that you actually made friends. Don't idolize japan. It's just people being a bit drunk and in a friendly mood. Doesn't mean you'll ever see them again. I don't want to be over negative about japan, but I think you'll have an easier time making actual friends in most other countries. I lived in japan for a year and I'm pretty extroverted so I managed to make some friends. But there's plenty of people who stay in japan for a long time and all of their friends will just be other foreigners because it's so difficult to have actual friendships with japanese people.

It seems so easy for him to go around an have fun with strangers. I don't have such social skills 😌 Abs amazing content!

[@YeahNahAye]

Wow didnt expect such a welcoming vibe , you just sparked my travel bug thanks

[@KoH4711]

I am literally in the process of quitting alcohol, but for some reason, the idea of watching someone else enjoying it makes it easier to quit. Love you, brother, thank you for the upload. You've changed my life. :)

[@steezydan8543]

What you're enjoying is the social aspects, the relaxed conversations and companionship. It's not the alcohol.

How’s quitting going?

[@TotobamfRS]

Loved watching this video, reminds me a lot of my trip to Japan during the summer 2017. Went to Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto and i can say that Osaka and Kyoto had some of the most social and inviting people i've met in any foreign country during my adult years. Just going to a pub that some random bloke i met on the street and befriended took me on one of the most memorable adventures i can recall. Japan has a special culture around drinking but take it from me, they know how to have fun

Man you are living the dream, I'm from Venezuela and i couldn't get out of my country but I'd like to travel and know people around the world. that part in the bar was funny with the Japanese people trying to speak in English, so kind persons xd
