2 Days in Paris 🇫🇷 Life in Japan EP 290

[@ChillDogASMR]

It’s so refreshing to see young women acting like young women instead of trying to look and act older than they are. Good job Mom and Dad.

[@千葉良樹]

あのちっちゃくて可愛かったベッカとアナが15歳でパリ🎉おめでとう💐

[@ありんこ-d6m]

2 days is way too short to enjoy Paris fully. Hope you get to go again someday and spend more time there!

[@LIJ]

I know! We had a great time but it felt like we just scratched the surface.

[@にゅにょ-i2q]

日本に来た欧米の人達が日本は全然違う!!っていうのがあまりよくわからなかったけどこうやってパリを旅行してるのを見ると本当に違うって感じますね。やっぱりパリはおしゃれ、おとぎ話みたい

[@aburakadabura2]

Asian cities and European cities seem to be very different. Europe is neat, simple, and planned and standardized. Asia is cluttered with all kinds of signs and buildings of all different heights. Some people actually think that this is fun and good, though.

[@LIJ]

Each place in the world has a unique character and charm, for sure!

[@lruss5050]

Thank you for taking us along! So interesting! Can’t wait to see the rest! Happy 15th twins!🎈🎉🥳🇨🇦

[@LIJ]

Thanks so much - we hope you enjoy the rest of the videos!

私の憧れのフランスの紹介、大変嬉しいです！この動画を通して私も一緒にちょっとだけ旅ができた気分になれました！有り難うございます。いよいよ今年も終わりに近づいていますが、来年２０２５年もライターご一家皆さんのご健康とご多幸を心からお祈りします…

モンマルトルの坂を登るのはホントに大変ですよね...15歳の記念旅行おめでとうございます

[@flow-freaks]

The beautiful Parisian scenery and the warmth of everyday moments intertwine perfectly, allowing me to fully feel the charm of the journey.

[@MyCrazyCastle]

Wow, I got tired just watching all that walking. Beautiful buildings, thank you for taking us on the adventure with you. Very cool to see.

[@LIJ]

It was a lot of walking, but we had a great time!

[@rickross9827]

Happy 15th Birthday girls!! God bless you all!

[@oceanluvngal]

What a blur! I hope future trips allow you more time to soak in the experience instead of rushing through. Am I right to assume you didn't even get to go into the Louvre or Versailles? Both are exponentially more impressive inside.

[@LIJ]

Yes, with only two days, it was either enjoy one place a little more thoroughly or get to know the city. We certainly want to go back with more time sometime!

[@gretchenwenrich1011]

Loved this video, didn’t want it to end.

[@LIJ]

There are two more videos like these coming up!! Northern Italy/Monaco/Milan and finally Venice!

[@shadowgirl7681]

I hope you really enjoyed your mini vacation in France and late Rin in Italy. It's kind of funny and awesome to know that you visited my neigbors country's. 😮😊 I also absolutely love how you combine your different backgrounds in your celebrations like this. 🥰

[@Grahamrobinsonvt802]

happy 15th year to the twins hope they had fun for 2 days

[@LetsgowithHyro]

So great to see them enjoy. Paris is such a beautiful city.

Ruth is probably thinking of shawarma.

[@nikkibun89]

What an amazing experience for the girls and so so much fun! Amazing memories made!

[@kevinbui4059]

This is so awesome! I am glad to have seen this video. It really inspires me to consider Paris as a future adventure. Last time I was in Paris was when I was 15 with my family. Pretty cool!

[@LIJ]

I (Nate) haven't ever been, but after editing this video, now I want to go :)

[@けいこ-g1f]

The view is so beautiful. I was excited too!Everyone looks like they’re having so much fun,and it makes me want to go too.Your children are lucky to have various experiences.I’m looking forward to your next post.Thank you

These are beautiful images from Paris, thank you very much for sharing your trip with us! It must have been a special one for the twins, can't imagine a better present for their 15th birthday 😄 Looking forward to the next part of the trip in Italy!

Thanks!!

Happy late birthday to Becca and Anna!❤️ I’m going to Tokyo and Hakuba in just 2 days. Your vlogs have given me so many inspirations for what to see🫶

Have fun! If you're around on a Sunday, please visit us at Paz Church! We'd love to meet you!

It's hard to believe it when it happens to your own kids, but they grow up! :)

Jet lag + Paris = a chaotic masterpiece!

[@海道狂也]

遠出しましたね。 雪は降ってないけど寒そうです。 僕はパリでー16｡cの経験があります。 恐ろしい事に、次の日ほんの数度温度が上がっただけで温かく感じるという。 人間の適応力は凄いものです。 現在のパリを見せて頂いて有り難うございます。 パリは冬が良いと思います。 人混みに悩まされる事もないし、余裕をもって観光できます。 動画、とても楽しみました。

[@LIJ]

コメントありがとう！

[@マヤ平]

ほとんど日帰りみたいですね、いい思い出になるといいですね

[@jpnkouhei1767]

The historic streets of Paris are so beautiful!✨✨✨　 Your smiles were so lovely and left a strong impression on me!😊　Happy 15th Birthday to Anna and Rebecca!🎉

[@LIJ]

Thank you! We're so happy you enjoyed the video!

[@BrichaJulbry]

Sitting in the back of a van or bus seems to be a cool-teen thing, at least back when I was growing up (just a few decades ago. 😂)

[@amyschneidhorst1384]

Your commentary is like mine when I travel! I like to wander but end up taking pictures of building I have not identified.

It’s kinda funny to see you with euro coins in your hand ! I hope that you’ve had an amazing time in Paris! Greetings from Germany

Thanks! 😃

Oh ! I live too in France 🇫🇷 I'm glad you visited Paris. ❤ Croissants are very delicious😊

[@atsushiyamagata7510]

パリに行きたい。旅の動画ありがとうございます！

[@karenbrunton6529]

What a special quinceanera! I loved seeing the Christmas shop windows; it reminded me of when my parents would take me to the big city to see displays like this in the 70s. It's not the same anymore, some of the department stores are gone and safety is an issue, sadly. So this made me nostalgic for happier times. Happy birthday, Becca an Anna! 🎂🎂💐💐

[@LIJ]

How fun! What country are you from? France?

[@GOMBE3]

・So you went to Paris at the beginning of this month, when Notre Dame de Paris was re-opened to the public. No, maybe after the winter holidays of the twin's school in Japan started so it must be around Christmas time, which means this is a quite recent video. ・The twins visited Paris after living in Japan for 10 years starting from 5 yrs. old, iirc. I wonder, after another decade from now, where and how they will be celebrating their birthday on the planet when they get 25! ・BTW mama-chan's narration is quite attractive and also effectively nice in the sense her words comes from the bottom of her heart. Real and vivid message. Looks like she is much much more excited and enjoying the time even than her twins girls, which is very nice and another good part of this video. I suspect, although it's not mentioned, this trip is also a heartfelt present to mama-chan from papa-chan for her big and continuous dedication for the-Life--in-Japan project of all the family. ・All of the group members, including mama-chan's parents, are apparently having a good time throughout this short but exciting trip.　Thank you all for sharing this with us viewers.😃

[@LIJ]

Thanks!! It's true - visiting France before Christmas was a dream of Ruth's that the girls shared, so it was only proper that she went with them, although I would have LOVED to go along :). Now I'm like anyone else in the audience - experiencing the trip through the video itself :)

[@emiliasencenbaugh7788]

I would definitely visit Paris, but I will live in Japan for a very long time.

[@onesquishbbyone2674]

Apparently, Paris Baguette cafe is a Korean founded brand hahaha. Shocked to see it in Paris itself too 😂

[@Canarywharfdebz]

Suggested places for your UK trip whenever that might be! The Cotswolds, Devon, Cornwall, Edinburgh, London and St. Albans!

Ooooo- sounds fun!!

Your smiles show how you are enjoying your time in Paris however short. Can’t wait for the Italian segment of the trip. The chocolate croissants looks so delicious.

If the girls are interested, they can watch the French movie Amelie. One of the film location was around Sacre c

Yes - souvenirs were bought! :)

A bit late, but happy birthday to both of you! I hope you had a great time in Paris.

Oh this was such a fun video! It was so nice to see Paris again after so many years, and through the eyes of someone who didn’t grow up with it. I was 15 too went I visited Paris for the first time (out of 3) with a youth group. We went to the same places and did the same things as you guys, even the climb and the race up the stairs of Montmartre hahah. I’m excited to see the rest of the Euro trip next Friday.

[@LIJ]

Thanks for commenting and watching!

ベッカもアナも日本語で話してくれると面白いと思います。

[@kourobou]

片道２０時間の飛行機おつかれさまでした。ウクライナ侵攻があってからロシア上空が飛べなくなり、ただでさえ遠いヨーロッパがますます遠くなってしまいましたよね。ただカザフスタンの飛行機事故のニュースを見るにつけ、やはり安全には遠回りするしかない現状、残念です。パリの街並み　自分が行った十数年前と変わらず懐かしくもありました。古い建物を残す文化いいですよね。マレ地区に宿をとってシテ島を散策したり、ヴェルサイユに宿をとって宮殿を散策したり(トイレが少なすぎて困りましたが)　していたのを思い出しました。若いうちはいくらでも歩けましたよね。双子ちゃんたちいい経験になりましたね。ママちゃんたちは階段や石畳を歩くのは大丈夫でしたか？映像を見ていて思わず　自分も息があがってしまいそうでした。

15歳おめでとうございます。文化、考え方の違いを強く感じるのが中学校の授業があっているときに親の判断で学校を休ませて旅行に行くことです。非難しているのではありません。日本国憲法には教育の義務、親が子供に教育を受けさせる義務があるのも影響しているのでしょうか。アメリカ人の考え方は違うのですね。

[@CraigAlibocas-b5r]

It was interesting to know your daughters were 15 yrs old but you see my thoughts and my nakedness but I thought that you were Christians? But it doesn't seem like it so don't see me and leave me alone and have nothing to do with me.
