[@paulavasquez7210]

Your vlogs make me so happy. The way you film your experiences is too good, thank you so much for all your effort 😭

[@katharinaschneiderr]

I miss Japan evn more now... Love your videos so much!

[@ExpatNatt]

So beautiful! We didn’t manage this part of Japan in our last trip but will definitely have to do a weekend away here when we get the chance. Great video ❤❤

[@taemtaem1625]

"musssssstttaaarrdddd! " That cracked me up. Such a beautiful vlog with an excellent soundtrack. Keep up the amazing work.

[@Lynbrieofficial]

To the person reading this, you will achieve what you have been dreaming of in life. Keep going my friend, and have faith

[@iu2]

Where do you guys keep all of your stuff? I can't imagine your HK apartment having enough room for everything. You guys buy a lot clothes, bags, furniture, lights, accessories, and random trinkets. A lot.

[@omelett150]

Haha I was wondering too, but they are rich ☺️

[@sukimala]

sam i love the soundtrack on this video i was jammin’ the whole time lol

[@Clément_dgtr]

Love your aesthetic ! I'm so happy to watch your new vlogs at lunch ! Congrats from Paris ! ❤

[@SamandVictor]

Woohoooo! Enjoy :) We miss Paris

[@JasonChristian]

Always love the video. The Fuji speedway hotel is definitely on my next list. I’ll recommend checking out Kusatsu onsen and Karuizawa Prince Outlet next time 😄

[@tinssss_]

My calm and peace. I like that your videos gives me peace. I need this. Love from Manila, Philippines

[@SamandVictor]

Happy to hear that! Enjoy this hour long vlog :)

[@JY-ft6ui]

I am keeping track of places you have visited for my next Tokyo trip!! And seems like Victor is enjoying his shopping spree this round. Till next week, have a good day ahead.

[@andeet.5981]

Never been this early! So excited to see you guys uploading again.😊

[@SamandVictor]

Yay! Welcome :D this one is a long one !

[@andeet.5981]

Perfect! Watching from Australia by the way ❤

[@mrmatz408]

Love your videos! And OMG, first time I've seen anyone on YT drink IWA 5. That's my favorite sake of all, but it's super expensive compared to the daily sakes I normally drink. Last time I was in Japan, I made sure to buy a couple of bottles to bring back home because it's like half price or less there. Can't wait to visit some of the places in Japan you've been to.

[@eighteenpercent18]

Lovely vlog as always guys! Hope you have a great January, and looking forward to the Lunar New Year vlogs!

[@jurrassitol15]

Fuji speedway is on my bucket list…I’ve done the Suzuka GP track during the F1 race…but now this has jumped up on my list…stay overnight, drive the track! Dream!!! (And then spend what money i have left at Gotemba hahaha😂

[@SamandVictor]

Hahaha! That's exactly what we did here in this vlog! It was so much fun getting to experience driving on the track.... at 60km/ hour 🤣

[@parvnaik8364]

Amazing camera work!

[@SamandVictor]

thanks for tuning in so early to this tokyo one!

[@Amacott99]

Aaaaah, such a fantastic vlog….i just loved it. Thank you.

[@Notthelaststark]

your vlogs are always on point

[@SHIBASANAKE_]

omg almost an hour! Thanks again guys, gonna watch it!

[@SamandVictor]

Grab a snack and popcorn!

[@clemenceyu3130]

thanks to your vlog I am back to Japan also

[@thecomprador]

I love your obsession with "konbini" stores! LOL

[@SamandVictor]

I'm addicted to them... all of them have their own uniqueness! And when the backdrop is of mount fuji... omg

[@CarrotOmelette]

just when i was...setting your vlogs up for a loop 😂

[@SamandVictor]

Monday nights for us! thanks for setting up haha. Enjoy this hour long one :)

[@joeycheng22]

an one-hour tokyo vlog??? love it🥰thank you for capturing the beauty of this place! cant wait to visit tokyo again!!!

[@themonsterubio]

There’s some kind of joy I get when receiving a notification about a new vid you uploaded. I never really understood subscribing and getting notifications from a KZbin account until I followed you. Sending love from the PH ❤🇵🇭

[@FABRCTR]

New Sub! Watching from Colorado!! Dreaming of being in Tokyo!! Loved the vlog!!

[@tasostasoulis-u2g]

Hihi, they got Quarkbällchen and lots of Herrenhuter Sterne on the Christmas Market. I have these coloured paper stars and they take ages to put together, but I love them so much.That´s really german.

Thanks! Excited to be back again .... 😛

[@racquelgaray9524]

Always feeling happy watching your videos and the playlist for me is the best bonus❤❤❤keep sharing🙏

[@OptionToRetire]

I remember when I first told Victor that Sam would leave him if he didn't get in better shape soon (and then Victor immediately turned around and got in the gym). Now look at how handsome and sleek the homie is. Proud of you, bro.

[@chocolateganacher4720]

Victor loves his purple and green outerwears 😆

[@SamandVictor]

And now blue 🫣

[@hy3676]

Really like your videos.. Love it

[@lumiere1897]

Fab vlog with interesting recommendations - inspired to check out the Mt fuji hotel and Tokyo in winter now! Also really liked the background piece (a jazz/classical mash up of the Swan Lake theme) you used for the Roppongi Hills segment - who is that version by?

[@SamandVictor]

it's by Kobi Salomon

[@lumiere1897]

@@SamandVictor Thanks for sharing this. Looking forward to more of your travel or HK vlogs - keep up the excellent work!

[@AlexandraKovacs-dn4sm]

I can't really articulate why, but this might be my favorite part from you guys!:) I barely blinked!❤

[@MennoDuhen]

Yessss. Using all of your tips for our upcoming trip in May/June. Going to Tokyo, Nagano, Shibu Onsen, Togokushi, Matsumoto, Takayama, Kanazawa, Kyoto and then back through Nakasendo Trail (Tsumago/Magome trail). Victor still in love with his Gaiac 10 fragrance?

[@SamandVictor]

Wow! How long is that trip going to be? Sounds super fun. Yes- i'm still wearing it daily!

[@MennoDuhen]

@ 3,5 weeks! Thanks, thinking of getting it while in Tokyo.

[@sherrynashe6401]

Yayyyyyyyy I just watched Yokohama vid…now cont with this😊

Hey Sam & Victor Have you been to Philippines there so much to offer!!! Go to Tagaytay, Taal, BGC, or Baguio there so many coffee shops and restaurants to try!!! Hope to see u soon 💖💖💖💖

Tokyo is the best city in the entire world.

[@LucíaAlarcónRubio]

Hola chicos! Espectacular viaje,! Sois los mejores! Desde España con cariño 🤗☺️

[@BeforeTuesdaySleeps]

love the colours!

[@elleporidae]

Color grading is divine, as always! 😩❤️ I’m always so curious on your process when doing travel vlogs. What lenses do you use? Do you film in FLOG then color grade? Or start with a film sim then color grade? Please share 🙏🏻 (or maybe make a tutorial soon? 😂 Jk) Love how you guys document your travels in photos and videos 🥹 You make any place look magical and I wish to hone that skill. Thank you for the inspo!

[@siennas]

Bam! 55 minutes of goodness!

[@levanymalka]

Amazing shooting 📷

[@SamandVictor]

You're early! Thanks for tuning in

[@bex6638]

Watching from Chicago! ❤

[@levelpar899]

your vlogs are the best! Sam I'm sorry to bother you but I love the jacket you are wearing during this vlog but I couldn't understand the brand.. is it maybe Patagonia? thanks

[@MaelysCha]

I found the part about the cars and racetrack not matching well with your usual and very cosy content 🥺 Love seeing you explore Tokyo though ♥️ Your vlogs are always truly cinematic ✨✨

[@nanasguy]

Marugin! my go-to when im in Tokyo (and was the "yakitori master" who sent me this video lol

[@profmaradona]

plss do a trip to sapporo next

[@SamandVictor]

We have one on Hokkaido! Check our Japan playlist 🎉

[@ptb2941]

Phew, I was worried there would be no gachapon shopping in this video! Those boxes to store them are now a must buy for me when I go back.

[@lr1255]

Clothes from Beams fit Victor really well!❤

[@melocitysolo9574]

Ah, this video just makes me miss Japan even more-though I already miss it every day!😂 If you haven't been there yet, my top recommendation is Iya Onsen in Tokushima, Shikoku. It’s an incredible hidden gem surrounded by breathtaking mountain views and one of the most relaxing onsen experiences you’ll ever have. While you're in Tokushima, you must visit Toraya Kochu-an, a renowned kaiseki restaurant that attracts food lovers from all over Japan. It’s a favorite among Japanese gourmets, and for good reason-the seasonal courses are unforgettable. Just make sure to secure a reservation well in advance! It’s totally worth it.

[@twentysEvan]

@SamandVictor one of the great joys of watching your videos is the accompanying soundtrack. The music rocks - always perfect for the visuals, and is rarely something I've heard before. Could you post credits/references?

[@beczillavlogs]

You guys driving back from Gotemba into Tokyo was very 'Lost in Translation' 😍

[@TubeedooYou]

I ❤ your videos. I hope you’ll do Copenhagen someday 😊

[@TheMellowMel]

Your videos make me excited to start the work week!

loved all your tokyo vlogs!! just asking if the gacha boxes are study enough to not crack if i put it in my check in luggage?

[@SamandVictor]

I put them in my check in and they were fine! I guess try to wrap them in clothes just in case

[@darrawatapi]

KEREN BANGET TOLONGGGG 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@Helenasbeauty]

Your vlogs are always so chill and cozy ❤ but honestly, as someone born in 1991 you saying that a hotel built in the 90s has an old school charm just makes me want to unalive myself 🙃😭😅

[@SamandVictor]

Ah sorry!!! People are different than interior trends 😬

[@PisuPichu]

which fujifilm you used to film this vlog? quality is amazing! the style, colors, everything!

[@mtylor7274]

Hello, I was wondering: why do you change hotels so often? Is it cheaper to do so? Or are you just after a variety of different places? As a watcher, I do enjoy seeing the different rooms, so maybe it's just for the viewer's pleasure lol anyway always love to see an update from you two!

[@SamandVictor]

We like being in different parts of Tokyo to explore the various neighborhoods! It’s also nice to try a range of hotels from luxury to budget

[@Chrisb8s]

We were in Osaka for Christmas and new years. I was surprised how quickly the Christmas decorations disappear

[@SamandVictor]

Yes on the 26th they’re immediately gone! So efficient 🤭 my Xmas tree is still up lol

[@Chrisb8s]

@@SamandVictor we just took ours down this weekend, mainly because we were in japan :) we live in Arizona, USA

Hi guys! What cameras do you use for photography / vlogging? Amazing video ❤️

[@EGA-yd8uj]

You guys must've answered this question a thousand times, but i still wonder: what camera do you use for these type of vlogs? i love the image quality!
