Truth be told this is exactly what all the sidelined prefectures need. All the usual tourist destinations are overtouristed already, yet Kyushu, Shikoku, and Tohoku areas got cold shouldered because the bilingual infrastructures and transportations are less convenient than the level of Tokyo, which may scares away tourists that are not fluent in the language.

@@adamguerrero4220 Depends on what area you're from, I'm from Singapore and this next trip will be my 4th. Budget airline is around 600~700 SGD for me. Accomodation I try to stick with hostels and they can go up to reallllly cheap for 30 SGD/night in Kansai Area or 60 SGD/night If you buy the JR Pass, 7 days which is 50,000 ¥ it's very worth it if you're planning a long stay and exploring a lot of region. In my case, I went Nagoya,Inuyama,Kinosaki Onsen, Okayama,Kurashiki,Hiroshima, YudaOnsen, Takamatsu. Even took the sleeper train back to Tokyo. If you plan to just stay within Kyoto I would advise getting it. Kyoto, Osaka, Kobe can all be access with their local trains. My 2nd trip in December where I stayed for 21 days, Tokyo+Osaka+Kyoto+Kobe was approximately around 3 to 4k in expenses. I ate well and went everywhere I wanted. My 3rd trip that I took in November was 2 weeks and approximately that much was spent too. Because I bought a JR pass and went to a lot of collaborations and ate expensive food LOL. I would say 3k to 4k is a comfortable amount!

I am at the part of the stork. The japanese actually watch a dutch livestream which send 24/7 video's about a pool at a rescue center for seals. Between 200 and a 1000 japanese people watch it the whole day. They love it when a bird appears, most favorite is a heron. The heron scares smaller birds away, that might harm the young seals, or even worse, steal their fish. So they call the heron "the director" "principal of the kindergarten". Meanwhile the heron is pretty much also there to steal food from the young seals. Japanese love their animals. Its very sweet and sometimes funny.

But they called the seal that was most loved by the Japanese "chabashira". While in most western cultures the 4 leaf clover means lucky, a tea leaf means luck in Japan. When seals relax in the water according to the japanese they look like a tea leaf. Chabashira means tea leaf. Chabashira was extreemly sick, but was a massive baby once they got released, to the point the japanese where making fun of the big cage to release chabashira compaired to the others.

Although I would like to venture off more outside the tourist area, I don’t understand or speak Japanese and don’t feel like I would do well as a first time traveler. I am also traveling alone. I heard that it would take at least a month or so to even explore around Tokyo, and people are more likely to understand English so that’s why I decided to stay there half my trip.

Last year, I went on my third trip to Japan (for 16 days), and I had decided to do West/South Japan, which overlapped a lot with your itinerary. 🙂 During my trip I went to: Kumamoto-Kagoshima-Fukuoka-Kokura-Beppu-Hiroshima-Himeji, Kobe and Osaka. If I had that third week extra, I would've added in places like Nagasaki, Kurashiki (which are present in this video) and maybe Okayama. But there already was so much I wanted to see in 2 weeks and 3 weekends. There's just so much to do in the South & West, I still wouldn't have bothered with East Japan if I had a third week. So in my opinion that feels like weirdly tacked-on at the end. If anything, my next trip in a few years will be focusing on North/East Japan for another similar time period (around 16 days). So I'd rather see a dedicated 2-week itinerary for that.

After 4 years of waiting (Covid + health stuff), I just spent the last few days planning our 3 week trip in May based on your 14 day video! Not sure whether to be annoyed or delighted 😅 But I know I'm going to love the video regardless 😁

I'm retired at 27, went from Grace to Grace. This video here reminds me of my transformation from a nobody to good home, honest wife and 35k biweekly and a good daughter full of love

I thank Maureen Duke who has always been there to help me with detailed analysis and recommendations that I would not have had access to otherwise.

YES! That is exactly her name (Mrs Maureen Duke). I saw her interview on CNN News and so many people highly recommended her and her trading skills❤️

15:44 I just realized that my green tea cans have this beautiful meaning hidden in their naming. I always get away with something new to know about Japan thanks to your Videos :) Greetings from Germany!

Was great to see some of the places we've got planned for our 18 day trip next year. Himeji, Kurashiki and Nanzoin. We will also be passing Matsuyama so will definitely check out the castle now!

It's so bone crushingly depressing that I'll never be able to visit Japan in my lifetime. At best I can watch videos like these. Your channel has been the best at scratching that itch. You've gotten so good at taking cinematic shots.
