Man, I have always enjoyed Mav's content, but this Japan series is another a whole new level! I hope he explores some more international locations in the future, we mostly only see videos of truck camping in North America, so it's super neat to see the international perspective.

You should be the model for kindness, respect and appreciation to everyone around the world! No matter where you are, what you are doing or who you are meeting, all those traits are conveyed in your videos! It's so easy to be a person of good will while sharing your experiences with others!

[@mione134]

The kindness and generosity by the Japanese people is unlike anything I've ever seen. It's beautiful. This series has been incredible. Those monkeys were adorable. The scenery was amazing. Just wonderful. As someone who will probably never see Japan in person (I'm afraid of planes) these videos are a little glimpse of what it would be like.

[@craigcampbell1843]

I went there by ship! You could do that. Probably not the way I did it though. I joined the Coast Guard. Lol

From the time you spent in Canada with Steve Wallis to this stint in Japan, you have made this channel so much more than it had been--in it had already been awesome. Well done, Mav.

[@SeizeTheAdventureCo]

This is such an interesting series, and really makes me really curious to experience camping in the mountains around the world. Getting to embrace true Japanese culture while having the comfort and benefits of traveling in a tiny home. Thanks for the content.

This is hq content, meeting other campers not speaking a common language, it's very easy to withdraw to your own sphere, im saying that as an scandinavian, we don't interact much if we don't need to, I've never been to Japan, but the Japanese ppl I've met, it has been smooth sailing, on the point, happy and respectful. And if we have had the time to understand eachother it's been such a joy, communicating without smalltalk. ♡♡♡

I don’t want this series to end this is awesome

[@bigenesis]

I follow quite a few KZbinrs who live in Japan but are not from Japan! I'm obsessed with Japan! With your travels in Japan, I get two for the price of one! I'm so excited to see the rest of this series!

[@Falcon532.]

I love how almost every cat you see in videos from Japan do the "I'm comfortable being around you squint" to whoever is filming, it shows how well they are treated over there. I know here back home if you see a random cat out and about 90% of the time they will bolt if you even think about walking towards them.. sad because I want to pet the kittys, it's the 10% I love the most

[@pixelgraphica]

I was so surprised when you "arrived" in Japan. I lived there for a year back in 19**. I love Japan and am glad you are having a great time. Thanks for sharing it with us!!!

Mav, You make new friends regardless of where you go because you are open and polite and an all-around nice guy. It is wonderful how the Japanese people treat you as well, especially the campground owners/hosts. TY for sharing with us.

You seem more comfortable with the driving now. You are always warm and friendly to those you meet. You are a good guy Mav.

[@sxnthwave]

Quick tip: When you say "thank you" right after you received kindness or favor from someone, you say “Arigatō gozaimasu.” But, “Arigatō gozaimashita” is used when the action you’re thanking for is completely finished. So when you’re buying something and you’re walking away, you’d say “Arigatō gozaimashita” (pronounced kinda like go-zai-mah-shita, but the i is weird and almost silent, less like sheet and more like shta)

[@SweetTone76]

Some pointers for you: arigato-gozai-mas (thank you) Su-mi-ma-sen (excuse me) Go-chi-so-sama-de-shi-ta (thanks for the meal!) These phrases are extremely useful for everyday conversation. Enjoy your stay!
