[@joysound7963]

나가노를 너무나 행복하게 즐기시는 두분에게 박수를 보냅니다..나가노는 산의 숲 최고의 힐링 에리어...인거 같아요...

[@taki2003]

Guys! what beautiful scenery! love the way you frame your shots, you have a great eye...both of you! thank you for sharing!!

[@acjacj5662]

I stayed in the same Ghest House. Best experience ever. The best budget option for a private onsen. Also Norikura Kogen is a paradise for trekking. I was there in the Fall of 2023

[@samuelandaudrey]

We loved it. It was the highlight of our trip! I'd love to find more outdoor private onsens whenever we visit Japan again.

Hermoso las tomas los paisajes parecen sacados de un cuento Japón mágico bello ❤😊gracias chicos guapos excelente vídeo las caminatas y Onsen esos platillos deliciosos ❤😊

[@MrPoppasmurf79]

Once again you guys are knocking it out of the park with this series of Japan vids. Looking forward to more! God I miss the onsens.

[@Bea_mackinnon]

I bloody love this series !! Fantastic content and alway genuine not forgetting helpful x Thanks 🇬🇧 ✌

[@samuelandaudrey]

Thank you! Glad you're enjoying it, Helen.

[@ToriPapi]

Absolutely breathtaking! Great footage.. good job guys😊

[@TravelbyDartTV]

Zen gardens, bullet trains, onsens. Nagano is where ancient traditions meet modern marvels, all with a backdrop of breathtaking scenery. Just wow!

[@costasworldofmusicmemories5792]

There is nothing better in the world in our opinion than the Onsen Experience in Japan. The Nagano Prefecture Series has been so good. We want so much to get back to Nagano and have our own experience. Thank you so much for sharing it with us. Hope you guys are doing ok. Sending you Hugs🫂and Kisses💋 from Richmond, Va. Harriet, Jim and Yuki

[@samuelandaudrey]

Thank you! I think we found our new favourite prefecture in Nagano. It had the magic element of mountains. We always end up enjoying the quieter places that are closer to nature. 😊🌲 Wishing you guys a lovely and relaxing weekend!

[@ettevaatustproductions6164]

Love the hiking in the rain and the nature in this area. Sam is right in that nature does recharge you... glad that you could finally use your hiking boots. We went to Rila Monastery yesterday and had a wonderful time there. Afterwards we went for a hike up to Ivan Rilski's hermit cave. Really cool place in Bulgaria.

[@samuelandaudrey]

That sounds like a fun day trip! We've heard of both places, but we never made it there when we visited Sofia. I bet nearby Pirin National Park is wonderful as well! 🌲

[@ettevaatustproductions6164]

@@samuelandaudrey We can see Mount Pirin from our apartment. It's really magical.

[@paulwheelan1106]

Just what was missing from my life...naked Sam!🤣 My eyes!! I'm away to the pub to calm down ! Brilliant vid as ever guys ❤

[@samuelandaudrey]

Haha! We had to crop some of the shots because there was no amount of blur to shield everyone's eyes. 😅

@@samuelandaudrey haha...too funny!!

[@michaelsylvester7272]

Hello to you both- Nice walking trails thanks for sharing close to nature is the best way.

[@johndornoff]

Your videos show so many parts of Japan I never knew existed, and now I look forward to visiting myself.

[@monica-NJ-123]

Thank you , Japan is a country I would love to visit , it’s a beautiful looking country and I love the culture 😊

[@kurofune.uragabay]

Maan... just another outstanding japanese national park with great hiking, plus the ryokan with the _rotenburo_ under the trees... kind of (very) jealous. Again. Thanks for the post, Audrey & Sam 😉🙏 Audrey, I realize that you're probably outside Japan now, but I thought it was funny how you'd somehow misplaced your rain-jacket by this stage of the trip, while here I am waiting for my next trip there to get my hands on a particular Montbell model with hard-to-believe specs for breathability and water resistance... Did you find it or did you have to buy another one?

[@Nature_with_Peter_Kane]

Great video as usual... I like the details you go into...that helps with some of our future travels to Japan this year. Cheers from TO

[@LoveLUZZY]

Beautiful relaxing place! Gorgeous views and sceneries! Enjoy guys!

[@marianabaciu7510]

[@samuelandaudrey]

That's an exciting trip and it's coming up very soon!! 😊

[@effie-Toronto]

@@samuelandaudrey Yes a few weeks and we will be there for 3 months

[@brutaltruth7197]

Are you retired Or taking a long break from work ?

[@stephenwarren9762]

What fantastic scenery

[@bcrocksaz]

Great video. Norikura Kogen added to my next Japan trip.

[@samuelandaudrey]

Good choice! I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

[@RWtreemedicine]

You two are such an inspiration!

[@samuelandaudrey]

Thank you! We appreciate the kind words. 😊

[@edgardopescatori]

Hola Audrey y Samuel, que hermoso lugar, me gusta ese bosque y la pizza que comio Samuel, se la ve muy apetecible debe haber estado riquísima. Hasta el próximo video. Saludos desde Córdoba Edgardo 🍷.

Hola chicos me encanta viajar con ustedes.

[@thomass4785]

If your travel day was few weeks later, the nature trail would be gorgeous of autumn foliage.

[@SpikeMoN]

Great travel and food videos!!!..... Just curious what do you use to shoot your videos?

[@samuelandaudrey]

Thank you! We brought 2 cameras on this trip: Panasonic Lumix GH5 and the Sony ZV-1F.

[@LTRaider]

Brilliant!! You guys always inspire me!

[@MirkoIlić-c7u]

Seeing Audrey with a bun on her head makes me think she has decided to get into full Samurai mode. Waiting to see if she'll wield a katana by the end of the video :)

[@samuelandaudrey]

Haha, you're not that far off! We did learn to throw stars at a ninja house. But that's another video for another day. 🥷

[@sabrinastraveladventures4263]

Ooh yes!!!! Let’s watch ❤🎉 Sabrina 🇫🇷🇬🇧

[@samuelandaudrey]

I hope you enjoy this episode, Sabrina! 😊

[@sabrinastraveladventures4263]

@@samuelandaudrey yes I have I was calculating as i was excited about this new/ latest serie of yours and was thinking you have been trickeling the episodes for almost 4 months now 👌🏼🫶🏼and you’ve done such a great job I’m loving it! One question How long did you stay in Japan as I’m assuming you have left for quite a while? You certainly made the most of it with all these videos! 🤞🏼We can go to Japan this year 🤞🏼 That’s the plan anyway 🙏🏼 Sabrina 😘😘

[@samuelandaudrey]

Ahh, yes, we've been back in Canada for a bit now! We travelled across Japan for 6 weeks, but we only release 1 new video per week. Otherwise, it would be overwhelming for us to edit, and for you guys to watch! But we're more than halfway through the series now. Just a handful of destinations left to edit.

[@sabrinastraveladventures4263]

@@samuelandaudrey Oh no i didn’t mean like that I’m perfectly happy looking forward to one a week I meant you are very well organised… you’ve done great job from planning the trip , searches travels filming a hell of a lot for 6 weeks … enough to be able to realise a constant serie for months 👏🏼and then carry on editing whilst back. It’s great to be able to do it like this as it means you don’t have to be on the go continuously hoping from one country to another and get burnt out. It has a nice flow showing the Japan that most people have never seen!

[@sergeykomarov2203]

There were severe fires in the Leningrad region of Russia in the summer. We drove by car and watched the bears roam in droves along the road to escape the fire.

[@samuelandaudrey]

That's so sad to hear. 😥 We also dealt with wild fires in Canada this past summer. It seems to be more and more common every year...

[@carlostyszko471]

hot Springs ?

[@a-un7952]

Clothes off in onsen, you and nature could have become one.
