japan vlog⋆ ౨ৎ˚ wearing a kimono alone, shibuya crossing, shopping haul, dog cafe, 7-eleven food

hi guys! how are you all? i hope you guys are all doing amazingggg! in this vlog, you saw how i flew solo from taiwan to japan! in my first full day in japan, i actually rented out a kimono. i can't believe we actually rented out a kimono by ourselves T^T i was so scared coz I was scared of being judged but honestly people are too busy with themselves to even care with what you're doing!
i also cant believe i actually asked strangers to take photos of me. like i never thought i could do that especially on a solo travel omg. so yes, i was very proud of myself. the clothes in japan are literally so cute too ugh. if i go again, i will literally make sure to pack less clothes when i go lol.
anyways i hope you guys enjoyed the vlog! i'll see you guys all next week with another japan vlog love you all

Same and Im late in ALL my classes with work, super stressful so have much to do but watching her videos makes it feel like I can relax. ❤ Good luck on your exams.❤

[@sassclem3190]

I totally understand your nervousness in doing things alone. It's probably why I try to plan absolutely everything I do so that I don't run into a situation where I don't know something. Really happy that you overcame that and tried the kimono!! I too will push myself this year so that I can enjoy more things without letting my anxiety take over!!

good luck ❤!!

One moment to appreciate how gorgeous she looks ❤❤❤

[@hiyorimiyagi9115]

I’m Japanese and I just started watching your video a week ago. I’m so happy that you enjoyed traveling in Japan and had positive things to say about my country! The kimono looked fantastic on you, and you appeared truly beautiful

[@RXJ904]

I love that since you've been travelling it's been keeping you happy and carefree, I'm so happy Japan is letting you get out your comfort zone also AND it's just the first vlog of it 🥳. Go Via!!

[@via.ilyouu]

RIGHTTTT THANK YOUUUU

[@mooneedy]

yesterday i booked my very first solo trip to seoul and while it took me a while to decide whether i should do it or not, i kept thinking about you and how you managed to travel on your own too... so i just want to say a huge thank you for inspiring me so much to do the same. i relate to you on so many levels and we're the same age so i'm thinking if via did it, so can i. although i am very very nervous and scared, i know i am capable of it. i'm sure i'll think about you a lot during my trip😭

[@zuuko7]

omggg I'm so proud of you Hope you have a great trip, GOOD LUCK

[@DexterMag-aso]

i really love this Japan vlog because this is sooo a captivating journey through cultural richness and solo adventures! Wearing a kimono, navigating Shibuya Crossing, exploring a dog cafe - it's a symphony of experiences. It instantly brings to mind the teachings of my life coach, Lisa Haisha, and her emphasis on embracing new environments for personal growth. Your travel tales, like the chapters in The Soul Blazing inspire me to step out of my comfort zone. Both you and Lisa are my guides in this journey of self-discovery and cultural appreciation

Ohhh! These made me so happy! Been watching all your vids one after another!

[@mistysky1471]

I'm flying to Osaka from Seoul on Feb 27th !! I was searching for japan vlogs on youtube then found your vlog. I'm actually kinda nervous because this will be my first trip(alone) I just finished watching your vlog (also subscribed right after watching it!!) I felt like I will feel exact same feelings just like you(i made an reservation for kimono in Nara and a little scared&shy to wear it alone in the crowd kkk) your vlog just made me smile and gave me courage! I think I'm ready for getting lost&finding my way on subway&asking to strangers to take a pic of me) Loved your energy !!!💕🌸 lots of love!!🌸
