Japan's Desert? - Tottori Sand Dunes

Along my journey to the sand dunes of Tottori prefecture, my first stop was one of the top three most famous views of the country. Now finally making it to the goal, it's time to explore the beautiful sand dunes of Tottori!
A Japanese inn with private hot spring, an Okinawa bar, beautiful sand dunes, a camel ride and an intricately carved sand museum are some of the sights we will see on this conclusion to the Journey to Tottori series!

That photo board is hilarious 😂 what a cool place, thank you for sharing as always!

[@NomadicGaijin]

Right? Like doesn't that hurt their tourism? Do they not want children in their park??

[@LemifromJapan]

Your video is Amazing!! It makes me feel I also have to make nice videos😅😅 Thank you for your hard work Luke!☺️☺️ You deserve hundreds of thousands subscribers👍👍

[@NomadicGaijin]

Thats so sweet Lemi, thank you! I think all of our team of KZbinrs are doing their best, my problem is I take forever just to put out one video haha

[@LemifromJapan]

@@NomadicGaijin Don't worry Luke, me,too!😅 Takes time edit videos. Let's keep up our work..!☺️

[@Justjeroam]

This is Documentary Level Luke, absolutely breathe taking. I truly felt l was on this journey with you. Keep at it man

[@starinajar13]

Loved the video!! The sand dunes with the beach are so beautiful, and I loved how everyone riding the camels was so excited to be in your video.

[@NomadicGaijin]

Thank you 😊 it was so much fun exploring this area 🤩

[@jaanisingh]

Viper Sake 😱😱🤒 6:18 😂😂 that sign helped 😂

[@gunturjanuar4686]

Fall asleep after watching this video. Thanks!!!

[@NomadicGaijin]

Is that a good thing or a bad thing haha

[@LucyIsTheOne]

Congratulations for completing another phenomenal video! You got some great drone shots on the sand dunes!

[@NomadicGaijin]

All cause I parked in the wrong spot and got lost in the "desert" haha Thank you Lucy!

[@RomanSudarikov]

This place is on my list to visit! I discovered it for the first time about half a year ago on KZbin and now enjoyed it for the second time by watching your vlog. I like your relaxed narrative style!

[@NomadicGaijin]

Yeah it had been on my list for 14 years, so there was something so rewarding about finally making it there, and to be able to stream/film there made it even better! Hope you can visit soon 😃

[@evavea]

"Bye Bye Nomadic Gaijin" lmao. Nice video

[@NomadicGaijin]

We love Lisa the Camel 🐪

[@DrJustininJapan]

NEVER KNEW ABOUT THIS PLACE!!! seriously thank you for sharing 🙏 SUPER SUPER good editing. Next time come to the actual Okinawa and we can do a livestream together 😂

[@NomadicGaijin]

Thank you! Yeah sounds fun, lets do it sometime. I havent been to Okinawa in 14 years its been too long

[@DrJustininJapan]

@@NomadicGaijin 14 YEARS!! ok, make it a 2022 goal of yours:) i will actually be up in your area later this spring!!! maybe we can connect

[@NomadicGaijin]

@@DrJustininJapan Sounds great man!

[@fluffyspark798]

I like the videos made in this area. You really don’t think of Japan when you see those!

[@NomadicGaijin]

I prefer to visit those kind of places, especially places its not easy to visit as a tourist. Hope I can share more

[@DanielandYuka]

Great Premiere Luke!

[@NomadicGaijin]

Thanks for joining, always fun to have the live chat!

[@etherdog]

So glad you made a shorter vid as anything over 1 hour is just too much time for my schedule, and I like what you do!

[@NomadicGaijin]

My longest vid is 45 min and that was a 3 day trip so don’t worry 😄

[@akapantsusenpai181]

Sorry I missed the premier, but the video is great!

[@NomadicGaijin]

Thank you and no worries it was kind of last minute since I’m well overdue

[@foundinjapan]

Really nice video sir. I hope to go there some day.

[@NomadicGaijin]

Thanks! Yeah its much closer to you than it is to me, you should!

[@Justjeroam]

Can l suggest you send this to local network in your hometown in the states or other small travel networks in the US. Maybe they will endorse you to do Japan Travel Videos. This is Amazeballs!!

[@aryogono6338]

Yes I agree with Jerome. Maybe find a friend in the JNTO and have them watch it. Who knows they might even employ or assign you an area to cover. And maybe even have Lito show this to his connection in NHK.

[@NomadicGaijin]

I dont think my one scrub production can be that level but it would be worth trying, in the meantime ill keep trying to improve!

[@NomadicGaijin]

@@aryogono6338 Would absolutely love that, its a dream of mine to work with other groups and have support for these videos. I like to imagine what it would be like to have better gear and some help in the field...

[@yukinainjapan]

Awesome premiere..Sorry , missed the premiere..already finish watching your video now..Keep it up..Your video are Amazing 👍🥰❤️

[@NomadicGaijin]

Thank you for the support, Im so happy you enjoyed!

[@yukinainjapan]

@@NomadicGaijin : You’re most welcome 🙏❤️❤️

[@deej4123]

Yay it's finally here. Lisa the camel

[@NomadicGaijin]

Sorry for the wait 😅 glad you enjoyed ❤️

[@second-act]

Those sand sculptures are craaazy!!!! Also what an awesome quality content!! Spared no expense❤❤

[@NomadicGaijin]

Yeah I have so much respect for the artists, especially since it was only sand and water. Thanks for watching!

[@theglobalcitizenship]

Thank you for sharing. Our crew and I were thinking of places to visit and what we could share before we approach the local tourism agencies and you've given us some ideas. We hope you had fun there!

[@NomadicGaijin]

Definitely had a blast, glad the video helps 😁

[@CamilleLMacLean]

Amazingly gorgeous place, Lisa is adorable 💜.

[@NomadicGaijin]

Yeah I honestly didn’t expect much when I came here just some sand but it turned out to be amazing

[@ravishasudda7762]

So in japan we can feel a desert adventure also 😁 is this place get snowing? 🌨

[@NomadicGaijin]

It does get snowy apparently, as this isnt an actual desert just a naturally forming sand dune area. But I still like to think of it as Japan's desert!

[@panathenaea]

Fantastic. I will be there this May

[@NomadicGaijin]

Absolutely great place to visit!

[@backintheclay]

Lol, just missed the premiere

[@NomadicGaijin]

I would prefer to give more notice for sure, it's been a busy week..but thanks for coming by!

[@backintheclay]

@@NomadicGaijin Yeah, I got back from work and I was watching random YT stuff, since I didn't see any alerts.. then, I got out of a vid, lol, then oops! I was pretty tired after work anyway! Next time! Darn those YT alerts algorithms!

[@NomadicGaijin]

@@backintheclay No worries at all, you were there in spirit

[@richkid3547]
