Like my friend said to me recently when she was visiting me even though i don’t know the language. I love the stunning Art work and photography that’s why I buy magazines and books when I am in japan.

[@RalphSam]

Likewie! We find ourselves admiring the visual creativity. The photography, styling and art direction 💖

[@anhdieli]

It’s always a wonderful pleasure to watch your great vids… making me anxiously looking forward to my next Tokyo trip! Really great work, Sam & Ralph!❤

[@RalphSam]

That makes us so happy to hear 🙏Thank you for tuning in. Safe travels on your next Tokyo trip 😊

[@meluvcats]

That Ministry of Defense curry had me lol 😂

[@RalphSam]

wonder what it tasted like 🤔

[@meluvcats]

@@RalphSam You should try it and get back to us on that 😁

[@RalphSam]

@meluvcats we regret not buying it! definitely gonna look for it again next time 🍛😂

[@ahughes9882]

We always get an apartment that we can dry our clothes and towels over the bath. It’s a life saver. Visited Jimbocho in November. That Art Deco bookshop is gorgeous. We took lots of pictures. Looks like you’ve been following our footsteps in this visit to Japan. 😂. What with the coffee shop the other day! Glad you’re both enjoying yourselves.

[@RalphSam]

Can't believe we only unlocked the bathroom dryer this year. After so many years visiting Japan 😅 Wow, we might have crossed paths. This trip was also in November. And yes, sounds like our itineraries have a lot in common! Thank you for watching 📚

[@ohdear1094]

A beautiful town, so happy you captured it so well 🎉

[@RalphSam]

thank you very much! hope we did it justice 🤍📚

[@Kapranosmymb]

Are you guys majoring in art? I like the way you shoot the video; it's so aesthetically pleasing and less disturbing. honestly you guys are different from others. keep traveling!

[@RalphSam]

Not art majors but we've both been working in the creative field for a few years now. Thank you for saying that! 🙏 What a compliment 😊

[@peterward5251]

Thank you once again for an amazing video. Every video I watch makes me cry happy tears. Like watching your favorite NFL team run in a touchdown every time. Planning on traveling to Japan next year. Each video gives me so much inspiration and so many useful ideas.

[@RalphSam]

Never heard this comparison before but we're honored haha! 🏈 Are you planning to visit just Tokyo? Happy to hear it's helped you plan your upcoming trip 😊🤍

[@peterward5251]

@@RalphSam Tokyo is just the beginning. Planning on buying a camper van and trying to travel from one end of the country to the other. Hoping to get a visa that will allow me to stay for a few months.

[@zennoodle]

1:41 There you go again, modeling and all! haha. Love these videos. Offers a great break in my day too. Still saving up for my camera. Hope to sync up with you guys in the new year somewhere some how in Tokyo or really anywhere else in Japan!

Trippy to see a can of beer from a brewery I frequent in Toronto make its way to Tokyo and into your vlog 19:11

[@RalphSam]

woahhh that's so cool. the packaging really stood out to me. i need to give it a try if i come across it again. which flavor do you recommend?

[@connoratcanada80]

@@RalphSam My favourite of theirs is the Ducks IPA, I would say it is their signature beer. In that same beer fridge was Bellwoods too which is another Toronto staple, more known for their Sour beers!

What’s a service apartment? Do they offer amenities like wifi and towels like hotels? Just wondering where to stay in Tokyo that’s affordable and have laundry machine in the room.

[@RalphSam]

yes, they offer hotel-style amenities like wifi, towels, bath products but in an apartment setting so there is a laundry machine and small kitchenette. ideal for long stays for us 😊
