I'm from New Zealand and self catering holidays are very common for families here but I think the weather would be a bit of a challenge in winter. Where I live, a very cold day is 6 degrees Celsius and it never snows. Kiwis would love this Onsen in the summertime I'm sure

[@t.a.4853]

Thank you for explaining the evolution of the onsen culture in the former video, and showing us in this one a rare traditional staying. It was fascinating

[@JonathanMerlinSymmank]

My favorite Japanese couple showing some cool stuff Japan has to offer. I would love to go to Japan. Btw, congrats on 500k subscribers.

[@swissfoodie3542]

Thank you for introducing this Toji Life with us, thats really interesting. The outdoor baths look so amazing, and it must be wonderful in winter, with the snow. The body in the hot bath, and the head in the fresh winter air. I think I would stay 2 nights, and on one night cook, and on the other night, eat a cooked meal in the dining hall. My only "problem" with this inn, is not having a toilet in the room.

[@winniethepoohandeeyore2]

YAY! Finally something I like! I'd stay there, for days.

[@oskarkacperekkocinski7736]

Me too😃

[@chentaijitraditionalberlin]

Indeed an interesting place!

I hope one day I can go to Japan

@kanaminemoto9704 I hope I can someday 😄

[@Ladycherrylisa83]

The most magical adventure in the snow! I loved the view from the bridge with the snow falling. Thank you as always, with love from South Africa x

[@clhwang0920]

This trip was a much budget that during these videos.I also like this old traditional hotel so much. Thanks for your sharing.

[@its_time_to_travel]

Thank you for watching! We are so glad you enjoyed the video☺️ Yes, it was on a budget, but it still turned out to be a special experience!

[@gourmetchaplaintraveleat920]

People in Japan must work at having excellent posture, as traditional accommodation has no chairs or place to rest your back! Shared bathroom makes sense because baths are shared. I would like to stay here as a Canadian but maybe in spring or autumn ☺️

[@BethDoublekickChick]

Wow! Such a unique experience! This video had a completely different vibe in a cozy and wholesome way 🥰 Arigato gozaimasu 🇦🇺💜🇯🇵

Thank you for introducing this wonderful inn to us.

[@warhawkplane9564]

That must’ve been really nice that you stayed at a traditional hot springs hotel🏨♨️ almost like a awesome getaway❤️.

[@priyankas2376]

Lovely Japan ❤ Good evening ☺️

[@FoxyfloofJumps]

I love this video! It shows more of a cultural side of onsen, away from the glamour and slick convenience of most tourist onsen. I feel like this could be a great getaway for a 2-week stay. Just take a bus and train into town for groceries every 3 or 4 days, and otherwise just relax. Also maybe a great way to counteract feelings of loneliness, as it's a more socially-open and less exclusive sort of stay. (I'd love to sit and just chat with someone over slow-cooking dinner.)

[@gourmetchaplaintraveleat920]

Cubes of beef tallow are so smart and something we never see in Canada! That is such a perfect looking carrot!

[@chrispotter219]

I really enjoyed this video. It was very different from the luxury accommodation usually shown and I think this type of accommodation would be wonderful to experience. I'm not sure if anyone else got the impression the Onsen was a bit spooky, but I definitely got that vibe. I'm not sure how spooky will translate in the Japanese language but, in the English language, it is a special vibe you get from ancient, historic or even tragic locations. Thank you for a wonderful, thought provoking video. Arigato Gozaimasu

[@valerieselau7384]

I really loved the whole experience. 😊

[@tiaran6769]

Hopefully I can go to that place

[@pamelagordon869]

Wow your so lucky wish I lived in Japan ❤❤

[@cherrytomato6139]

How interesting! I have read the Snow Country by Yasunari Kawabata-san, and it feels like he described a stay in a place like this one. Thank you!

[@IppaFi]

Thank you ❤ How lovely 🥰🙏❤️

[@HuzaifaShah-fe9tu]

Nice Japan so beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤

[@madamenicoleNY]

Thank you for taking us along for the Toji experience. I think it would have been more enjoyable and less stressful in spring or autumn. I’m not used to hard conditions if I don’t have to endure them! Congrats on 500,000 viewers. Keep up the great work. I really appreciate you.

I can’t believe you had to pay for the gas to cook with lol! It looks like a beautiful place to stay though that’s for sure. Thank you for taking us along 😊

16:56 At last ! Potatoes ! 🥔🥔🥰😊

[@Joe_1sr9]

Another relaxing video from you. The stoves in the kitchen reminded me of the science lab at my old school 😅. Thank you 🙏

[@its_time_to_travel]

Thank you for watching! Have you ever used stoves like that? 😮

[@Joe_1sr9]

@ hello, no I haven’t. I prefer to cook with electric stove with less fumes but I’m very impressed by your cooking skills. Love your videos.

[@farizaditya]

Looking so beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤

Has there been any dishes you’ve had on y’all’s trip that you’ve wanted to recreate? I love cooking vids, and it was a joy to watch you guys make dinner❤️

[@its_time_to_travel]

Thank you for your comment🥰 I’d love to try making sushi🍣

[@Darksud]

надеюсь эти места прекрасной Японии мне ещё удасться посетитт.

[@an8id62]

All the rotenburo look divine!

[@美樺黃-z8k]

很不錯👍👍👍

[@fordiga71]

When you started cooking, I wondered what dish you were going to make. They were the same ingredients as for Dutch 'hutspot'. Now I might try it Japanese style.

[@its_time_to_travel]

I looked up 'hutspot' and it really does look similar! In the Netherlands, do you mash the potatoes?

[@fordiga71]

@@its_time_to_travel Yes, both potatoes and carrots are mashed with some milk. It is seasoned with salt, pepper and nutmeg. I had no idea there was a wikipage for 'hutspot' 😊.

[@jyc313]

Of all onsen review videos on youtube, your's is by far the best. Very informative even without the narration. Question, after having watched a number of your videos. Are most onsens, even remote ones friendly and accepting of non-Japanese speakers? I ask because a lot of the ryokans tend to be very personal in their service - from the introduction and welcome to explaining meals, etc. Thank you!

[@its_time_to_travel]

If remote onsens are developed as tourist destinations (like Ginzan Onsen or Lake Toya Onsen), they often have staff who can assist in English. If there’s an English reservation page, it’s usually a good sign that they can accommodate non-Japanese speakers. To be sure, you can mention your preference for English assistance when making a reservation☺️ Even if English support is limited, many ryokans try their best to accommodate non-Japanese speakers using tools like translation apps. Thank you!

[@Cernumospete]

**sigh** Why do I watch all these wonderful places knowing I will never see them in real?

[@veget_asian]

Wow this is cool, i have never seen/been to ryokan with shared kitchen and restroom

[@shakiylastepney8859]

I'm glad that you know how to cook or you would have went to bed hungry

[@V2000-t8v]

No air-conditioning in busses in Japan or just this bus ?

[@Michael_RD]

This looks amazing! Especially the outdoor bath, and in the winter. Do they allow people with tattoos to use the bath?

[@madamenicoleNY]

I’ve been reading up on that. I think you have to see which places allow tattooed people to enjoy.

[@Iluthra]

What a different experience from what you're used to, and us too. Question : what were the round blue, green, & red balls in the candy corner?

[@its_time_to_travel]

Do you mean the ones in the bottom left at 27:51? Those are jelly treats! You cut the thin part with scissors and drink them☺️

[@Iluthra]

@@its_time_to_travel Exactly! Thank you.

[@hieioni3354]

I wouldn't be able to immerse well into the Toji life, tbh. I'm not big on sharing everything with strangers. Here in Canada, sharing a house with strangers is already a pain in the heiny. It's better to live with your family, really.

1:49 definitely you must know Japanese to read the timetable and the bus panel ! Or to have with you someone that know the language or use Google of other translator app !

no need. knowledge with chinese also helps

新しいバッチというのでしょうか⁉️ ありがとうございます😊 岩手県まで行かれお疲れ様でした。 しかも旅館とは全く違い自炊も出来るなどこんな宿があるんですね💦💦 なんか田舎のお家に帰ってきた〜 という感じですね‼️ 岩手県はさすがに寒そうですね。 映像を見ているだけでさむっ‼️ と思うので、実際にはもっと寒いだろうなぁ➖😨と。。。 私は寒さが苦手なので行ったら耐えられるか？😅ですね。(元々冷え性半端ないのです😖) 確かに不便さはあるかもしれませんね。ただ、普通の宿とは違い新鮮な感覚を楽しむにはなかなか貴重な体験が出来ると思うんですね。 いつも思いますが、何を基準に宿を選びますか➖⁉️ あと場所ですね‼️ 色々お聞きささたいのが本音で〜す

[@its_time_to_travel]

私も寒がりです😂 歴史ある建物ということもあり、とても寒かったです🥶ですがおっしゃる通り貴重な体験ができました☺️✨ お宿は素敵な外観だったり面白い体験だったり...何か特徴があるところを選んでいます🤔 公共交通機関を使ってどこにでも行きますよー！目指せ全国制覇✊

まだご夫婦、お若いので制覇できますよ、きっと〜👍 私はもう歳なんでね➖‼️ でもまだまだ気持ちを若くして過ごしています。私も旅行大好き❤なんでとにかく人生一度きりですからとことん行きたい場所は行きますよん🎵
