Hiking in Tokyo! | July 11, 2015

I never knew you could find awesome nature spots like within the Tokyo Area. Seems like perfect place to escape the city life. Oh, I also loved the Meronkuma on the wall in the end. Priceless !

[@kydeanderic]

Francisco Araújo Yea, the western parts of Tokyo are actually quite rural and pretty. -Eric

[@caitlinveal5709]

Ahhh i love rain!!! I would absolutely love that weather. But needless to say, I loved this beautiful sunny day. The trees were amazing! Thanks for another gorgeous video guys. 😊

[@caitlinveal5709]

Also, that delivery service would never fly in America either!!! Lol i would think i was being pranked if they actually bowed to me, much less stayed long enough to have me answer the door! 😂

[@kydeanderic]

Caitlin Veal Hahahahha. -Eric

[@TabbyAngel2]

Bless your hearts. I've been having a horrible evening, and seeing a video from you guys will help me forget

[@kydeanderic]

TabbyAngel2 yay! Hope you are having a better evening today. -Eric

[@juliegoodwin6850]

Looked like a great day😊 have had some rainy afternoons in CO and have been catching up on your videos, thanks for all your great work!

[@kydeanderic]

Julie Goodwin It was fun! Thanks for enjoying! -Eric

[@gurmitgill5199]

rainy season, love it ....

[@infichif]

Dumpster diving and chop-twigs? You all are the best!

[@kydeanderic]

infichif Hahaha, thanks! -Eric

[@patriciasuarez5766]

These videos are amazing! Literally just chill and watch or listen over while doing something else and it's perfect. Thank youuuuu

[@kydeanderic]

Fantastic to near! Thanks! -E

[@ranchan6650]

You guys are awesome and watching you kinda helps with my post vacation blues.

[@kydeanderic]

Luciana Voutilainen Haha, yay! The trick to post-vacation blues is to go on another vacation! -Eric

[@ばかーんいやーん]

東京にもこういう自然がたくさんある事を英語で伝えてくれてありがとう！ 動画をみていろんな国の人がこういう所に行ってくれたうれしいなー

[@TsunChip]

Awesome work getting across those bridges! I also love hiking and probably the best (and scariest) part of the hike is the bridges. Best I've seen so far is a single log over a 30 foot drop with no way to go around and half of the log is rotted out. Granted it was a mighty big log, but still. Sketchy. Keep up the great work, love the video as per always. (PS. Love the trekking poles Kyde! They save lives, well my feet that is.)

[@kydeanderic]

Rickroller102 Man, that log sounds awesome! Never thought I'd say that about a log! Hahaha. -Eric

[@jessyowens3068]

Another great short story of my two favorite people.boy oh boy you guys have so much fun I wanna join you

[@kydeanderic]

judas gray Haha, you don't have to join us to have fun! Just go wander around in the woods with a friend! Haha. -Eric

[@MR-rr9zi]

Eric you are a super lucky guy to have Kyde in your life. Kyde, you are amazing.

[@kydeanderic]

***** Tell me about it! -Eric

[@HighCotton8]

Thanks for the Kyde & Eric fix we've all been craving!

[@kydeanderic]

HighCotton8 You are welcome! -Eric

[@readysetsleep]

This reminds me of Hyogo hike in the winter, there was a JR station sign short cut to the train, but then it led into some unkempt trail and the signs just stopped appearing. I just end up lost and didn't return home until 10pm, because I end up 3 train stations away from original station. Nice Find with the Neko Delivery Service Box! I saw them delivering down in southern Taiwan in Kaoshiung and Ma Kong Island. You two should hike Old Rag Mt in Harrisburg, VA when you come back to visit.

[@orphan01]

You know what would be awesome? If you did a vlog of you both at one of those traditional summer festivals with the game booths and all and dress up in a kimono and yukata. It would be fun watching you scoop goldfish and trying out all the food!

[@kydeanderic]

Mothmallow We have covered festivals in the past, but I think somewhere in the "Living in Japan" 4 part series. Honestly we don't really go to them very often because they are often the same exact stuff over and over, very hot and crowded. Every once in a while you stumble across a unique one though, if we find them we will make videos! -Eric

[@orphan01]

Kyde and Eric I thought that you probably have. I have this romanticized version of festivals in my head from anime where they're not too crowded and are utterly pleasant in general. Damn you fiction.

[@Natycookie]

Such a cool hyke. I would have got very lost finding the way towars the last bus :s Would love to see more!

[@kydeanderic]

Natasha Carruego We were so happy we didn't get lost, haha. That woulda been a huge bummer. -Eric

[@bobburt]

Love your videos. It always excites me when I see a new one pop up in my subscriptions feed. :)

[@kydeanderic]

Bobburt Yay!

[@luca5me5quIta]

Kyde and Eric!! My girlfriend and I have been actively watching your videos for quite a while now. KEEP IT UP!!! We both get very excited every time you upload a new video, you guys are responsible for making everything not seem so bad for just a little bit with your videos. So, I just want to thank you both.

[@kydeanderic]

Lucas Mesquita Great to hear, thanks so much! -Eric

[@bugs294]

LOL trail..trail mix! I saw a documentary about that delivery company and they even deliver groceries for elderly customers while doing a wellness checkup (ask them questions make sure they're doing well).

[@kydeanderic]

bugs294 Hahaha, we saw exactly the same thing! -Eric

[@windlover117]

Kyde and Eric They have that delivery service in Taiwan too :D

[@ksy76]

Kyde and Eric where can I watch this? thanks!

[@MrHavoc1001]

Great video guys!

[@kydeanderic]

Supaman1982 Thanks!! -Eric

[@KingHenryVR4]

Man the beginning of the video with the aerial shot of the floating bridge looks like such a cool place to live :)

[@kydeanderic]

KingHenryVR4 Yea, it's beautiful. A long way from a 7-11 though, maybe not worth it. hahaha. -Eric

[@KingHenryVR4]

Kyde and Eric HAHA no 7-11's within like a 100miles from me here in NC

[@ahmadfarhan830]

we need more videos please u are my favorite people on youtube

[@kydeanderic]

Ahmad Farhan Haha, we try to post a medium to long video once a week! I don't think I can make more than that! Thanks though! -Eric

[@ahmadfarhan830]

you are welcome

[@TheMotherDucker]

I never comment on videos but thank you guys for continuing to make them! I've spent the last few months in the hospital and always get excited when you upload something new, it's like watching friends on a great adventure, something I look forward to. Again, thank you.

[@kydeanderic]

Layla Stryker Awesome, glad to entertain! I hope your stay in the hospital isn't too bad of a time. -Eric

[@Ingsord]

Thank you for the video.

[@kydeanderic]

Ingsord You are welcome! -Eric

[@AdorkableZoey]

I love that shirt Eric!

[@kydeanderic]

Adorkable Zoey Thanks! Cupcake! -Eric

[@LinearPortal]

always a treat to see a new adventure

[@kydeanderic]

Taiba Yay! -Eric

[@TheBsdinnan]

Your uploads literally only happen when I am bored beyond belief and searching for things to watch. Lets just say afterwards I am never bored.

[@kydeanderic]

TheBsdinnan Awesome timing! -Eric

[@hiiiimymelody]

Kyde's lunchbox treasure find is bad ass!

[@kydeanderic]

hiiiimymelody I agree! -Eric

[@Animatrixx]

hiiiimymelody yeah, total lunchbox envy there!

[@CognitionSpeaks1]

Omg. I bet you guys sleep very well after day adventures like these. :)

[@kydeanderic]

Jen D Yea, totally! -Eric

[@vincentmiller6773]

Kyde and Eric Awesome, great adventure. I want to do the trail of sketchy bridges & gratuitous amount of nature!

[@kydeanderic]

Vincent Miller You should! It was awesome! -Eric

[@neil2090]

I get so exited when you I see one your videos come up in my sub box :D

[@kydeanderic]

Neil R Awesome.

[@Animatrixx]

i buy kimonos from Japan and i get packages from that delivery service with the cat and kitten on it - also my fave logo ever! xx

[@kydeanderic]

Warrior Queen Awesome! -Eric

[@emmahallows]

Kyde's dumpster diving was so punk rock!

[@kydeanderic]

Emma Hallows Haha, that's one way to put it. -Eric

[@yokota69]

another great adventure for you both.... :)

[@kydeanderic]

yokota69 Yay!

[@astroboy3507]

Thanks for the Friday night vid guys !!!!!! And Eric did u say 100 km run wow !!!! 👀 And I love the worm dance Kyde !!!!!

[@kydeanderic]

astroboy3507 You're welcome! Yea, 100km run...insane! -Eric

[@Vermin80]

"Studenten Futter" is great! I eat that all the time :) Here in Switzerland it's called the same, and has the same nuts and stuff but less salty i'd say....translation would be "Students Food" i guess..:)

[@kydeanderic]

Vermin80 Yea, I love that translation! -Eric

[@WG00]

only four weeks of rain come to England and see what rain really looks like.

[@kydeanderic]

I've been in rain for a week from a typhoon. Hahahahaha. -E

[@mop09drg]

Ummm....you'd better not drink the raw water. Especially in now of the hot season. Indeed, Kyde is a tough wild brave woman !

[@kydeanderic]

mop09drg Haha, hopefully she'll be OK! -Eric

[@mastergodai]

This looks like something I'd Like to do if I ever make it to Japan XD

[@kydeanderic]

kelel Getting to Japan is usually easier than people think! Come hike! -Eric

[@Designandrew]

cool you updated the intro thing neat

[@kydeanderic]

Designandrew Yea, it had been a while! -Eric

[@lanettadavis9910]

thats bento box is awesome

[@kydeanderic]

lanetta davis Yea, it is awesome! -Eric

[@Yesica1993]

I had an epiphany watching this. I think I would like/love hiking if I tried it. Now, if only I could find a place to hike. (Seeing as how I live in Chicago, and down own a car...)

[@brunobruno1152]

Yesica1993 it looks nice, but in reality... strongly advise you against it. all the mosquitos, the pain on your feet, and the birds just don't shut up. just kidding haha you should try it! :)

[@TubaBuddha]

I made a big mistake. I made a turkey meatloaf for a Buddhist World Peace meeting I thought was this weekend. It's next weekend. I will have to eat this within the week. So I had a meatloaf sandwich as I watched this video. It was so thick that I used a knife and fork. Which you definitely could have used on your adventure. Being in the mountains of Japan, with all the fresh rain, and a fast moving stream. The water is bound to be ok.

[@kydeanderic]

+TubaBuddha That sounds like a delicious mistake! -Eric

[@vanillerygarden]

STUDENTENFUTTER!!! Oh my!!!! Translated it means something like "student´s food" . They call it like that because the brain needs a lot of nurturing while you learn. :) And we actually say Cranberries just the same way as you do (since it is indeed the english word), because the German word is not as sexy for marketing. (Moosbeere or Kranichbeere....) But to be honest: I cannot eat it anymore to save my life. My grandmother always used to have a trailmix in the house and try to feed it to me. (They did not have the chocolate ones back then.)

[@kydeanderic]

Vanillery Garden Haha, awesome translation and explanation. I've been eating tons of trail mix recently, the stuff is awesome! -Eric

[@oikka2210]

I was watching your Q&A video and you talked about going to Sweden,if you ever go there would it be possible for you to visit Finland awsell since its so close and it would be cool to see you guys in Finland.

[@kydeanderic]

Antti Oikarinen I agree! -Eric

[@oikka2210]

Kyde and Eric Would also be cool to see you taste Salmiakki aka black liquorice :D

[@supakoolchris]

Ohh man that fruit cup looks amazing

[@kydeanderic]

chris vazquez Love the fruit cup! -Eric

[@ayounes7944]

Thats what i admire about Kyde, she is natural. a typical chick would have a 100 apprehensions about the wild already before even getting there !

[@kydeanderic]

+asynat She's a tough gal! -E

[@BFG69000]

Nice shirts!

[@kydeanderic]

BFG69000 Thanks! -E

[@AnimeStarwind]

The entire lunch part of the video, all I was thinking about was: 1) Please tell me she has ham sandwiches. 2) Use sticks! I was very excited to find out you had ham, and used sticks lol Thank you for another awesome video!

[@kydeanderic]

AnimeStarwind Hahaha, gotta have ham sandwiches! -Eric

[@positiveguy123]

I have a correction. It's the B-bridge not bridge. =3

[@kydeanderic]

positiveguy123 Hahha

[@ikaruseijin01]

I can't find my Japanese plants book, so I can't identify the leaf tail thing. It looks superficially of the nettle family, but that's probably wrong. Oh and I'd kill for a ham sandwich right now.... The power of suggestion...

[@TheSchwaehn]

the "mit joghurt" was pretty good though :)

[@kydeanderic]

Schwaehn Haha, good to hear! -Eric

[@Oukoyami]

Not only did you two find the " Sticks " of Tokyo you roughed it. Kyde made her own chopsticks and drank the mystery water. Btw that lunch box was every bit as awesome as the teeth lamps you ...recycled : )

[@kydeanderic]

Oukoyami Hahaha, love those teeth lamps! -Eric

[@SonnyViceR]

So with Kyde having these walking sticks, and recently having said in the Chiba videos that her pace in walking upwards has improved, have we lost the 'slow bot' forever? :)

[@kydeanderic]

SonnyViceR I'm worried about the same thing! -Eric

[@jennifernewell6417]

You're not gross, you're a genius! I'm going to use sticks on my next hike. :)

[@vivianlam7171]

The story about the courier has to have the last thank you is hilarious! Ha ha....

[@kacn1982]

おはようございます。 奥多摩湖？のハイキングは大変疲れましたか？ 宅急便トラック型の入れ物は可愛いですね。

I never found Waldo.

[@kydeanderic]

[@SimplyDoneRight]

do you hear much of the fukushima nuclear disaster on mainstream media living in japan?

[@kydeanderic]

skye ash They talk about it some, but not obsessively. Like, if there is some sort of news. It has been like 4 years. -Eric

[@RealSpaceHobo]

wauw......sorta made my day - epic hike there guys - almost like way back in Indonesia/Malaysia, remember......the reason why you guys were tired......and this could be me getting banned - maybe forever - is that you slowly, ever so inchworm slauwly....are turning into (here goes) - auld people......yes......aould people....BLADAUW!......:-)

[@kydeanderic]

Ledzz Go Yea, probably! It's OK, beats not getting old. -Eric

[@akathetruthteller]

not trying to be a pest, but i was wondering what you guys think about the radiation fear in tokyo after the nuclear incident few years back? I mean the city looks pretty but just wondering if the locals are concerns about it in anyway.

[@kydeanderic]

We don't worry about it, it's not like we can do anything about it. -Eric

[@akathetruthteller]

Kyde and Eric that is the right spirit!

[@brunobruno1152]

German guy here. No I was not offended by your pronounciation of the german words haha studentenfutter actually means student fodder! so, the stuff the students use to fuel their studies :) Oh and really nice video as always!

[@kydeanderic]

Bruno Hege Haha, thanks!

[@KennLau]

Have you tried walking through Todoroki Valley yet?

[@kydeanderic]

Flag "first", "sandstorm" and "301 club" comments as spam for a surprise Well then, looks like someone can't take a joke? I enjoy K&E's videos much like everyone else who has subscribed to them.

[@kydeanderic]

[@ModelZ]

Kyde and Eric It's amazing that you actually saw this, I'm filled with euphoria :D

[@MrMrvotie]

Hello! X) I Just Wanted To Ask You A Couple Questions, If That's Cool. 1. What Part Of Japan Did You Guys Enjoyed & Prefer The Most? 2. How Much Would It Cost To Travel All Over Japan At Least Once? 3. What Would You Recommend To Go First When Visiting Japan? P.S. You Guys Make An Adorable Couple! =) Peace! Really Enjoy Your Channel!

[@kydeanderic]

MrMrvotie Hi! 1. It's hard to choose as diferent areas are certainly diverse from one another. I really personally like Otaru in Hokkaido. I also enjoy the people down in Kyushyu. Tokyo has it's incredible spots too, of course. I really can't chose, and it all depends on what it is you are hoping to experience. 2. I have no idea how to begin to answer this. There is a LOT to see in Japan and it could take years to properly explore the entire country. It also greatly depends if you are looking to stay in cheap places or want more luxuary, and depends on what kind of activities you want to take part it. 3. I think this document I wrote might help. docs.google.com/document/d/1DOUoFuDJ9I7hTIUCFkyAdnY_Q2jvZ-c84bezj8PyuPU/edit You could also check out this much more detailed document made by a third party. docs.google.com/document/d/1wjqJKYEKbHSUTsj8Lxj8OCn0gSOXOpf_SroyBEjLbKY/edit -Eric

[@MrMrvotie]

Kyde and Eric Thanks! =)

[@deborahbarger6452]

maybe the bear was big foot, lol. Do they have big foot sightings in Japan?

[@kydeanderic]

[@troyisaderp]

What happened to the 59 minute video that got uploaded today??? :(

[@kydeanderic]

You need a bear bell guys.

I'm not falling for that trick! -Eric

[@Malakaiea]

Are you still alive after that water Kyde?! Haha i wouldn't be able to do that

[@kydeanderic]

Malakaiea Haha, she's still with us! -Eric

[@rawstarmusic]

That's how chop sticks were invented, in the woods. Nature seems quite dense there, snakes, spiders and long invisible things shaking trees. Could be a God and you haven't made a suitable offering? You stole sticks in the woods. Have a ceremonial and a ham offering before you enter deep forrest areas not to angry the tall thing.

[@kydeanderic]

***** Haha.

[@chappyrick0705]

LOL how cool it is to use "natural" chopsticks. Maybe it's about time for everyone to go back to nature.

Hi Kyde! HI Eric! I'm totally new to your channel (I fell in love with it) and I'm not as informed and stuff and I was wondering if you won't mind if I ask something...where are you both originally from (each or both :p) and are you married? :p thanks I love your channel

Hello Kyde and Eric, lovely vid as usual ... my message's to Kyde, i tried to find a way to send it in private but didn't find any but this... i'd like to tell u that u lost weight remarkably, u look a lot under the wight, am a very thin person, and i can tell u that loosing that much weight especially at late 20s and the begining of 30s is not good ... i used to workout a lot and eat less; now i'm under weight and i find difficulty gaining weight no matter how heavy i eat ... saw ur dinner vid too... seriously, try to eat healthier and consistent meals ... i'm sorry if i'm being indiscreet, i just don't want u to go through what i'm being through. have a good day Peace PS: u can remove my message, won't feel offended, at least i'll know that it reached u

[@kydeanderic]

Amina Bettayab Her dinner video was not representative of her normal diet, it's something fun she did for the week, and even at that what she had wasn't really that unhealthy considering it came from a 711. She has lost weight this year, but has also had checkups from her doctor and no alarm was expressed. Thanks for your concern, I'll pass it to Kyde. Oh, in the future if you want to send a private message email is probably the eaisest! Our address can be found on our website. -Eric
