“Potatoes with tomato sauce” sounds so much healthier that saying fries and ketchup 😄

[@ThatPerthFan]

Yeah aussies call ketchup tomato/tommy sauce.

[@tccandler]

Is "Cmon do the Math" on Spotify?

[@yaminogame7805]

I want it as a ring tone.

[@G-y_m]

I think it's called the math song

[@Delaney-and-the-Starlight]

So catchy @2@

[@michael_swardh]

It should be on Spotify, instant hit!

[@scarlethideout]

I think these non-vlogey vlogs are the best. More vids of "regular" days please!

[@cazssiew]

This was like Seinfeld in Japan: the vlog about nothing. And somehow… that's super captivating…

[@yaminogame7805]

lol yes

[@chemicalimbalance7030]

Can someone please tell me why I watch this? Genuinely curious. Honest question.

[@matthewshinn5839]

Totally and she looks and sounds like Jerry too.

[@zamith1817]

Love these mundane/day in a life type of vlogs from you ❤️

[@TokidokiTraveller]

Thank you! Sometimes I worry they are too mundane but if people enjoy them I’m happy to make them!

[@stevengold]

@@TokidokiTraveller I prefer them personally! Loads better than the "Look how WaCkY Japan is" type vlogs. Maybe it's just because I plan to move to Japan and like the realistic point of view

[@behindthenextcorner3183]

@@TokidokiTraveller I love this type of your videos the best! Please continue making them! 🙂

[@GauravSingh-ku5xy]

I love mundane vlogs as well! Learning about paperwork and dealing with bureaucracy in other countries is really interesting.

[@brigettekieninger1925]

This was such a fun video! The math song, “hey mista” @ Jonny Depp, the doodle at the end lol. Thank you for all your amazing videos!! I am so happy every time a new one comes out ^~^

[@TheFrigidsnow]

Not to throw shade at what you do at TC (you get to do amazing things, like holy hell! Envious as hell) but I totally miss these vlogs unscripted and just seeing you go about your day.

[@TokidokiTraveller]

TheFrigidsnow gonna try to do more of these!!

[@TheFrigidsnow]

Tokidoki Traveller Do what you can but don’t overdo it just because some internet peeps would love it!

[@angiek.9741]

Hi Emma, I just wanted to let you know that I had been worrying like crazy this past week about an interview, and I found that watching some of your vlogs calmed my anxiety and helped give me some sense of peace. You are a chill, earnest person with some very chill videos and I appreciate what you do! Thanks for the good vibes!! 🙌🏻

[@weebtrash3802]

We need a runescape bank vid, don't forget the unregistered hypercam2

[@1radicaldame]

I love this. Your personality is always so sweet and funny, even in stressful adult-type situations.

[@soph3mai]

Ahhh, you can’t beat a Tokidoki Traveller vlog, and when there’s IKEA involved, well...what a treat! 😍❤️

[@vern_dc]

Did you sang that math song?! So cool and funny at the same time 😂😂

[@Woolookologie]

The animated outro caught me off guard, too cute

[@Nynke_K]

Literally the cutest thing!

[@Mikey-hj2zm]

I do that all the time. I get full while eating tea, and then two minutes later I’m hungry for something else. Also loved the edit during the dark shadows scene 😂

[@thomascullen527]

The vibes this vid gives off are immaculate

[@allytheninja]

This is the most wholesome thing I've ever watched. I'm so glad you decided to vlog this day, Emma! It was so enjoyable to watch!

[@chroma-agogo]

Omg that jacket is amazing, where did you get it? I don’t want it, I need it

[@kirseitis]

Yes! Was thinking the same thing! It´s so nice

[@denisu81]

i also would like to know where to get this kimono !!!!

[@smithereens388]

I can tell this was filmed in February because IKEA was serving ”semlor” (the pastries to the right at 4:39), they’re eeeeverywhere in Sweden in February.

[@roseboudelair3729]

That's a cool tidbit🤗

[@BeautifulStrangeMyst]

Wasn't there a king who ate so many of those that he died? :D

[@smithereens388]

@@BeautifulStrangeMyst Haha, yes, good old Adolf Fredrik stuffed his face full of semlor and then had a stroke. 😅😅

[@Shelbichu]

The drawing was so cute!!! I love watching your videos they make me so happy.

[@seykadagmar]

You should keep a folder of everything you need and a list of what you're going to need for renewing your Visa. As you print new documents you can put it in your folder and keep it all together until renewal day.

[@akis.nemcsok6391]

I love your Math song! - We need to make a full version. -- side note you made me really wanna go to an ikea ( I haven't been in two years) but the closest one to where I live is like 12 hours away.

[@karlos1008]

For some reason I really like “everyday” vlogs. They’re just more real. I loved it! Great vlog, greater songs

[@behindthenextcorner3183]

The little animation at the end was the best! :) And congratulations on succesfully renewing your visa.

[@taltigolt]

as a swede it's nice to just randomely see ikea especially in japan i love japan so i'm in a way flattered oh and tell natasha that she is adorable well you both are

[@christophervercheak6305]

Good luck and you got this! I absolutely love shopping at IKEA and I love Sweden 🇸🇪 too! I go there almost every year in the spring or summer to visit my friends and family and go to the AIK Fotboll games.... Have a wonderful day much love from Cincinnati Ohio USA 💛🇺🇸💛🇺🇸

[@PinkFrecklWavez]

This was THE BEST VLOG for multiple reasons: 1. A classic day in the life with Emma like good old times :) 2. Your outfit was lovely and it suited you very well (black rollneck and oversized jacket) 3. Ikea as the ultimate comfort food and fun 4. The full bowl of frosted flakes that you were going to scoff right after not finishing you dinner because you're full ;) 5. The drawings at the end

[@MidoriEyes7]

I love your drawing at the end. It is so cute.

[@homotristesse]

was having a bad day and this vlog really cheered me up, thanks emma!

[@chisol3508]

I liked your drawing at the end. Nice bonus! 😊

[@mimii3000]

Your videos are always so fun Emma. Always a good time with Natasha too!

[@wxlurker]

That math song needs to be the theme song when I go out 😂 My friends laugh because I end up using the calculator even for simple sums

[@moonlitgalaxy5940]

this video was such a vibe! your new song is such a hit

[@feelzyfeelz]

These types of videos are my favorite! Can't get enough!

[@jorgesaki7849]

Good for you Emma, not problem with visa this time! So, we will see you all year. Greetings from Argentina

[@Laura_Darkspear]

Oh man, I love when you throw in funny song! The math song killed me haha I so relate. Cute drawings at the end too! You should do a whole video with Stick Figure Emma. 😆

[@kayleen2946]

😂😂😂Emma you're such a precious human, love the drawings and your Pick n Mix Math song. Also, I understand not being too full for dessert!

[@erikha.v]

Tbh, those vlogs about doing errands are really interesting for me haha

[@kavitasarmah]

yes, more videos like this!!

[@s0l0poly71]

Upgrading from daiso to ikea, damn I can totally relate!!!

[@missydeluxe3174]

"This is our trash can that we use as a table sometimes" LOL... :-) Anyway, I see that you chose the Tachikawa immigration bureau over Shinagawa. As you know, the wait to submit the application in Tachikawa is much shorter than Shinagawa but the wait to receive your visa is about three times as long. I stopped going there for that reason.

[@TokidokiTraveller]

Missy Deluxe yes! That’s why I sent my application in earlier than I normally would. Gonna see how it goes and if the wait for it is too long I’ll just either go even earlier or go to shinagawa I guess! But honestly I never wanna go to shinagawa again 😭

[@yaminogame7805]

@@TokidokiTraveller The people at Shinagawa were so rude to my friend last time he renewed there :

[@philipshaw7393]

Yeah I only went there once when I lived in Tokyo and glad I moved to Osaka as they were more friendly there and got 5 year visa on first renewal

[@missydeluxe3174]

@@TokidokiTraveller Great! Let us know your overall experience with Tachikawa immigration after you've received your new visa. BTW, do you have any concerns about job security at TC? I noticed that Chris Okano was fired and Chris Broad has severed ties and expressed regret that he ever joined TC on his Patreon page. Seems like we're seeing less and less of Sharla on TC as well. Your thoughts?

[@princessthyemis]

Is that the inside of Ikea?! I've never been in one before! It looks amazing! That dinner you guys made looks delicious! I love the weird ice-cream head mask dance at the end--it could TOTALLY be the ending theme to an anime!

[@musashihueston77]

Do a compliation of all your songs. Gym song from day in a life, Math song, etc

[@aegd]

It's kind of funny, In sweden pick & mix "plockgodis" is usually between 5-12 SEK per 100gram (around 50-120yen) with about 100 yen being the average price, and the prices going down for holidays like easter and christmas. In most cases it's pretty cheap. If you get pick & mix at supermarkets it's usually fresh, but at the cornerstores you sometimes get the stale stuff that's been lying around for some time. At the larger supermarkets there's probably around 100 different varieties of pick & mix. The IKEA store seemed to have a very limited selection of pick and mix :)

[@StayAwake5225]

it’s so nice to see tachikawa in a vlog!! love my city 🥰

[@debbijay]

OMG Just wondering if you know that you are in the latest Jetstar commercial here on TV in OZ... My 2 teen daughters and I were watching tv last night and we all jumped up when we saw you... It's a thumbnail pic of you taken around the time you did the ep with Bryce from Living big in a tiny house. Wow!

[@lastbob2502]

I love the relaxed Mr DJ vibe 🤣, and damn, I only go to Ikea for meatballs. Enjoyed this video thoroughly.😊 Btw, it's funny how you use Kikkoman and I thought that one was fake/bad and I swapped that with some Tamari (which is pure soy sauce) from the wholefoods (Serbian version 🤣). I was about to upload you a photo of it, but then I remembered I can't.🤦‍♀️😄

[@lastbob2502]

Forgot to mention, it is made in Japan and from a small manufacture it seems.

Hello! Just found your channel from tokyo creative. I noticed your sauce you used for dinner is basically teriyaki sauce which is one part Mirin, one part soy sauce and one part (cheap) sake with sugar to taste. Heat to dissolve the sugar. I make a large bottle and use it as needed!
