Day in my Life in Japan 🍁 Autumn in the Countryside

[@sharlainjapan]

I know many of you are waiting for updates on when Japan will allow foreign visitors, as of now the word is Japan will open back up to tourists in April 2021. It's not confirmed but it's sounding likely 🙏❤️

[@mckenziebuie8777]

Thanks for always making awesome videos! You and Chris (from abroad in Japan) inspired me to start learning Japanese and do some research about possibly teaching English in Japan.

[@MrDean180360]

Great video what a beautiful country ❤️

[@originalkingdomhearts]

It looks like it's true but you will need to get tested for Covid before you go and show them upon arrival and then get tested a again when you get there ? Basically a lot of testing.

[@lexieverde6641]

My and friends and I have been wanting to travel to Japan for so long! We were hoping within a year or two it will be possible. ❤ I definitely have some ideas of what to do when we go by watching your videos.

[@CdnChopSuey]

Reminds me of the gondola on the Grouse Grind.

[@Save.the.legends]

Quinlan speaks and carries himself like a university professor. I like how he has taken his love and appreciation for Japan to a whole new level. I hope to meet him someday.

[@Romy-rz4zt]

He totally does!! I loved hearing him talk about Japanese history.

[@piratequeend5345]

Dude. Imagen having him as your professor! For once I would honestly pay attention🤓

[@aus-li]

PirateQueen D You should do the research yourself, lol. School forcing you to do things is never fun or interesting.

[@piratequeend5345]

@@aus-li I am 28 years old and not going to school anymore. But my ADHD and dyslexia made it really hard to stay focused. Sooo just saying with him as a professor it would have been way more intresting.

[@aus-li]

PirateQueen D I see! However, you’re never too old to read things on the internet. And if you want something more immersive, you could always watch documentaries :)

[@AFTW44544]

I absolutely love that Japan respects nature by making paths out of wood and rocks rather than blacktop or concrete. Looks like an incredible time.

[@FiveOClockTea]

Isn't that normal in the mountains? I'm German and in Europe pretty much all mountain hiking paths are wood/stone/earth :-)

[@Narnendil]

Unfortunately, I've seen it made out of concrete a lot in Japan as well, so it's not always like in this video.

[@tiki_riot]

What’s blacktop? Is it tarmac?

[@minakawakami1256]

I'm Japanese, now I've stayed in Australia. I've been studying English with your KZbin. Your videos are so fun! I just wanted to tell you that.

[@ryannoble2269]

Quinlan is like a professional tour guide and I feel like I need him with me everywhere in Japan...

[@EnglishLitGirl]

I loved this so much, Sharla! Not only are you so fun to watch, but you surround yourself with such cool people, as well. Great job :)

[@sharlainjapan]

Aww❤️ Have to agree with you, all my friends are pretty great☺️

[@LetsaskShogo]

So nice and beautiful... I'm Japanese, but most people never have the chance to visit these areas in Japan! I'm very glad you made this video, it's beautiful!

[@sharlainjapan]

Thank you Shogo! :)

[@lucyseger4177]

Me: “I’d love to go hiking in Japan” Quinlan *takes out bear spray* Me: ........”I’ll just stay indoors playing Animal Crossing”

[@emalinel]

Most of the time if you carry a bell on your backpack and avoid bringing food on yourself for overnight stays you'll be fine hiking in Japan :) the same usually applies to any other hiking trail with bear sightings

[@annefresia2102]

ha, my partner heard that pat of the video and I think the bears are the selling point that might actually get him there someday!

[@melissalayson7275]

We have bears in the United States and Canada too.

[@adamschultz3799]

As one of millions of people who've travel plans have been devastated this year, I love these kinda videos! Hiking fall colors makes you forget about stuff for a little bit, thank you!

[@kailashks901]

Quinlan's channel is really underrated imo.

[@sharlainjapan]

Agreed!!

[@rielamarcellis]

Thumbs up for the drone shots.

[@Xionamis]

The drone takes from 14:19 to like 14:30 are so good. I don't ever go hiking but that's a sight to see.

[@QueenToken]

Nami Ami those were so unreal such a cool angle too see them at

[@Xionamis]

@@QueenToken right?? seeing them walking from that angle just felt like you were really going on adventure. very immerse feeling!

[@minusforty4323]

Quinlan and Sharla are such a vibe, the most calming presence ever! Lol

[@tobynmanthorpe]

Some of those drone shots were breathtaking.

[@grenzle2428]

I love when you have this guy in your episodes. He seems like a cool fella.

[@sharlainjapan]

He is! I’m always amazed at how knowledgeable he is about Japan :D

[@K1Assassin2012]

Love Quin, he's just a basket of knowledge. Just like a good basket, its filled with cool stuff that doesn't slip out (he doesn't throw it in your face) but at any moment you could put your hand in and bring out some special sauce

[@spyscy]

You guys have a great KZbin dynamic!!! More than just Quinlan explaining things directly to viewers, it feels like the viewers can discover new things in Sharla’s shoes as he explains things to her. God I miss Japan!!! You’re both doing great marketing for northern japan 😹😹💯

[@mikeh5605]

A cruel angel's thesis at the convenience store, cool.

[@sharlainjapan]

They’re celebrating Evangelion’s 25th anniversary so you hear it a lot recently!

[@CocoCece08]

Evangelion was a good anime. Highly recommend (sub over dub, unless you like Asuka).

[@jamesfry8983]

[@minusforty4323]

One of the best anime of all time imo

[@akirashock26]

I don't know if you'll see this comment, but I wanted to tell you just how much I love your videos. I super enjoy these longer videos following you throughout your day, even when you're simply going shopping and eating. Thank you so much for showing us these gorgeous views! I appreciate you taking us on adventures with you since I am unable to go to Japan myself and this is the next best way to experience it. Also, your videos help me get through some very difficult days and have always made me happy over the years since I first found your channel. I hope to continue watching your content for years to come.

[@sharlainjapan]

Aw thank you so much for the kind words🥰❤️

[@scotttan6377]

The real beauty: nature in the background, Sharla in the foreground ! A shout out to Quinlan - so knowledgeable and articulate.

[@words10cubed]

Nice job! Beautiful KouYou seasonal colors ... Your choice of black footwear was a wise one ... Perfect for those unexpected muddy mishaps ... I will say the ropeway looks scary when you look down at it from the top! Beautiful hike and you spoiled us with some awesome drone footage!

[@cecilekiddo5185]

I love your videos of northern Japan. When we can finally travel again, it’s on my top list destinations.

[@TheRealMythril]

Such beauty. Thank you to both you Sharla and to Quinlan for sharing this. Such fresh and crisp beauty. Autumn is such a special time. 💖🧼😷🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👩🏻‍🦼

[@ReiyukaE]

Ever since researching Aomori for a story, I completely fell in love with the region.

[@andreypoloz3088]

Thank you for being you Sharla. :) Your content and energy are soothing for the soul. 🙏

[@sharlainjapan]

Aww thanks for the kind words☺️❤️

[@peachesto6643]

Thank you Sharla & Quinlan for filming this hike. Breath taking views. Autumn is my favourite season. Take care & stay safe 😊🍁🍂

[@macmiddlebrooks1]

Thank you guys so much for taking me on your autumn mountain tour. I'm having a lot of anxiety about unemployment relief legislation in the US, and this made me relax and I loved all the informative commentary by both of you. A real pleasure.

[@botDepot]

Quinlan is like an American (?) Ryotaro...the way he talks and explains things reminds me so much of him haha

[@pauldavidgraham6301]

This made my day. Seeing you happy and enjoying the great outdoors. Especially after all the crap you went through last year. I like watching you and your friends enjoying life in Japan. I lived there when I was 4,5, & 6. I have fond memories. Of course, this was in 1950 - 1952. My dad was a concert pianist/organist and he got a job teaching music at an all girls school. My mom taught English part time and took care of her 5 sons. My brother Jared was born there. I only have good memories of my life in Japan. In those days a U.S. dollar was worth 300 yen and boy did that buy a lot of goodies. One of the hings I like about your videos is that when you go shopping you show the Japanese price of things; whether it be a menu or just items on a shelf or case. I use my exchange app to find out the going dollar rate the prices are. I also follow Kim Dao, but at the moment she and her husband are stuck in Australia because they've closed their borders over the Covid. Anyway, I'm glad you're alive and living the way you want to. As Kathy Cat says, "Do what you love, and love what you do."

[@Panster7]

Quinlan is just filled with passion love it

[@acridyd]

I grew up in West Virginia, and those peaks remind me of the Appalachian mountains. Even the windswept trees, like those found in Canaan Valley.

[@lynda.grace.14]

I love the persimmons, too. Love the home dried ones you can buy along the streets from the locals. An overload of sweetness that beats bean paste and mochi any day.

[@DiandraLyn03]

You and Quinlan together make some of my fave content!

[@sophieg1833]

"Mark would love it" Omg Sharla😂😂😂

[@davidwhite6895]

[@davidwhite6895]

Sharmeleon ah ok got it that makes a lot more sense now 😂

[@TheKhalzone]

Hiking with Quinlan seems like so much fun

[@TheKiwiJobes]

Does anyone else get this super relaxed peaceful vibe when watching Sharla? I found her like 6-7 years ago now ( so much has changed omg) Won't ever not want to watch her and some of the other OG japan KZbinrs

[@Chris-J-513]

Wow, the scenery was incredible. Excellent work. "We got a long drive ahead of us but we got onigiri" my new favorite quote.

[@1jackieworcs]

Lovely vid. Really enjoyed it. Quinlan seems very knowledgable on the area which was interesting to hear. More like this please when you can 😊

[@VanilliLilli]

My boyfriend and I first tried persimmons last year, because in autumn they‘re really cheap in germany and on the other hand, they’re almost nowhere to get in other seasons of the year, and since then he can‘t get enough of them, he's been excited all week, because autumn is here😂 Btw I LOVE your videos and think you’re such a lovely personality! Thanks to you and Chris Broad I started learning japanese 1 1/2 years ago and I'm planning to study abroad in japan as soon as the whole pandemic situation is over! Thank you for so much inspiration and Thank you for sharing your Awesome lifes with the world! ❤️❤️❤️

[@eunhyuekpark6159]

As a person who loves the outdoors and hikes like crazy....that looked like a great day! Hope to see more of this awesomeness and great vid!

[@bullseye4076]

This is the first time to make a comment. Thank you for introducing beautiful viewing and their history as well. ( I've never known the history of 八甲田山 and 慰霊の森(森のしずく公園).) I am a Japanese who are living in USA ( I love Canada as well!), because I don't like my country little bit. But thanks to you, gradually I became more attracted both Japanese good nature and culture. I miss Japanese food so much! Please keep safe and stay warm:)

[@marcopolo208]

The nature in Japan always looks breathtaking through your videos. I'm not an outdoorsy type of person (despite what I dream), but it makes me want to go hiking everytime. On the bench part my first thought was "Mark would love it." 😂 Thank you and Quinlan for the work and time put into this video. 🥰 It really makes me happy since I dream one day to go to Japan. Also, news for Quinlan: I subscribed and your channel is fantastic, thank you! ❤❤
