Guys, I was at that pottery area about 2 years ago. At the top of the road with the 2 long pottery buildings that they make the pottery in. Interesting pottery places.

[@JustBeing_JuJu]

Lived in Okinawa for 7 years. We have only been back stateside for 1 year. I love watching and seeing all the familiar things.

[@Busha69]

The way this video opened with Seaside Drive-In, which was close to my house when I lived in Okinawa. I would also walk to Onna no eki sometimes:). Oh the nostalgia. I never had my own car in Okinawa because I hate driving, so I used the buses all the time...and the bus from Naha to Nago takes about one hour and 40 minutes. Btw. people better not expect the mainland punctuality when it comes to Oki buses heh, they hardly ever come according to the timetable but still, they are a lifesaver for people like me.

[@anitakinman8881]

I so love when you're back in Okinawa 💜 It's on my bucket list to return home to my birthland , Okinawa. Thank you so much.

[@monogramadikt5971]

almost booked at that exact hotel for my next stay , was good to see it up close properly

[@rayanagi]

I love road trip videos! I giggled at the "broken heart" bench. It's a love seat! Built for two, it slants into the middle so you slide together. Promotes closeness. 😆

[@Shinichisworld]

Ahhh that’s so cute!

[@hollish196]

I do love the Tabi Eats videos. They are what I found first, then. Shinchi's World.

[@jeywood6532]

Thank you for being generous with all the different stores and amazing cites. You help many viewers have a constructive means in life daily.

[@VerhoevenSimon]

I love both of the channels, and both styles of content are a treat!

[@maralisil]

Christmas through New Year's in Okinawa! Paradise! I'd love to visit!

[@estertorrevillas7528]

I was in Okinawa many years ago with friends and enjoyed a drive like this! Thank you for stirring many happy memories!

[@louisetregomorgan4907]

I am loving this driving video , you are able to take us to all these amazing places. Okinawa has alot of hidden treasures, thanks for showing the pottery and glass shops and their locations . Love the retro drive through that is very kool indeed.

[@pattytakayama-zannini7498]

Beautiful drive around Okinawa Island. I hope you do more of these videos.

[@richardcrowe5157]

Keep up the good work and I also love Tabi Eats. The posting you did with your family in Honolulu brought a smile to my face, thank you

[@susansprouse1694]

I live in Southern Mississippi. I know how oppressive the summer heat can be. Take care of yourselves. Thank you for the lovely video.

[@JustBeing_JuJu]

Okinawa heat is worse than southern heat. I promise!

[@agneskunibrown2991]

I love to watch tabi eats all food you both try it looks so delicious 😋

[@bookiemeow173]

Loved this video! Thank you again!

[@robertbarnier45]

[@debracantrell1058]

[@agneskunibrown2991]

It's always nice to see you guys mahalo for beautiful videos of all awesome places it's so beautiful

[@mariambenajiba2252]

hi guys and thanks for the videos and in this one the bench in front of the ocean does not represent a broken heart in my opinion but the fact that it leans on both sides towards the center is for the people who sit on it find themselves in the center by the law of gravity and the heart resides ❤️!!! this bench is so cute and poetic 🥰😍

[@peterjake9621]

Watched the premier already but came back to see the ceramics and glassware and the shops and scenery 😂😀👍

[@nijinomonogatari498]

Nice to see you vlogging again here in Okinawa 🤗 Enjoy!

[@susanburnside111]

Another great video and more inspiration for future travels. My list grows longer. I recently saw the Seaside Drive-In featured on an NHK 72hrs Documentary. It looks like a really interesting place. It’s on the list as is Yachimun no Sato. I always visit Tsuboya Pottery District when in Naha. Like you, Shinichi, I love collecting pottery🤗. Looking forward to the TabiEats video. My mouth is watering and my stomach is growling in anticipation 😄. Take care and stay safe🙏🏻😊

[@susansprouse1694]

How beautiful!

[@btread8875]

Nice video. Thanks for taking us along. Your content is much appreciated. :D

[@Shinichisworld]

Thank you

[@yeevita]

I guess Japan's southern islands are the Hawaii of Japan. Okinawa is beautiful and you two looked like you had a great time. Lovely video!

[@annegraheck5713]

Ur video brought me back to our years on Oki from 1987-1990. My dream is to return. Thank you for sharing.

[@franzfms86]

Great views.

[@lisayamada2008]

Looks so much like Hawaii!!! :D

[@melsanders4038]

I love all the channels!

[@awesomeadamfrom2099]

Awesome job bro

[@M_TicoWA]

Howzit nice area and the beach doesn’t look crowded. You can still feel like you are in Hawaii. 😆

[@upsized]

Im surprised to hear u say Shinichi's world channel is doing better. I prefer the content at Tabieats and i wish you would post there more often! For sure i will be happy to support the new video you mentioned. Can't wait for it!

[@HungryTrashPanda]

You’re here in Okinawa! Or were! Nago is a beautiful place for sure. I’m glad you are enjoying everything.

[@Shinichisworld]

Can’t wait to go back.

[@bluginger6734]

Thanks!

[@Shinichisworld]

THank you so much!!!

[@charismacolada9846]

I love okinawa! Visited the afbase w my exhusband for couple of days. Wasnt long enough to explore the island

[@Scriptor13]

Of all the gorgeous scenery, interesting shops, and delicious food you showed us, my favorite moments of this great video were those you spent petting the sweet, adorable kitty. 😻 Warmed my heart! Thank you for another amazing video of Okinawa! Perhaps if your allergies allow, one day you could visit Nyan-Nyan Ji in Kyoto. According to what I've seen, the current head monk is a beautiful and dignified white cat named Koyuki.

[@Shinichisworld]

I still think about that kitty.

[@Scriptor13]

@@Shinichisworld 👍I love your big heart, Shinichi. It was a precious kitty!

[@marissacaldeira2098]

Oooh..yellow hibiscus..my favorite

[@PandoraApocalypse]

If there is a paradise it has to be in Japan🇯🇵

[@mogaliz2185]

This is so cool I currently live on Okinawa. Would have been cool to have ran into you guys!

[@Shinichisworld]

Lucky you live in such a beautiful place

[@moonshadow--1207]

I think most of us watch everything you two upload. I do. I love to have my dinner watching your food reviews although I'm not really very fond of live streams on any channel. I guess it's just too much commotion going on for me. I do watch them later sometimes if they aren't too long. Sorry. ❤️🤗

[@Silva007ish]

I love it when you said “ we travel for food” ! We do too and we love to try out the amazing food that only the locals can provide! I’m wondering if you can tell me if the vendors at the rest stop spoke English or is it easy to navigate if you don’t speak the native tongue?

[@Shinichisworld]

Not much English is spoken however you won’t have problems traveling. People here are nice and will try and help as much as they can.

[@babytkim]

Omg are you guys still in Okinawa? I was just in Yomitan a week or 2 ago!! I have been following your channels for a very long time. 🥺

[@rohashimoto2774]

Watch out for habu!

[@meim1555]

Thank u for the drive-tour, such a nice place..and the beach, wow! BTW, the 'broken-heart-bench' you saw is kind of a 'reconciliation- bench', u both sit there and then obviously slide in the middle and bam! You both are not angry at each other anymore. Cute, isn't it?😅

[@Shinichisworld]

Wow that’s so cute!

[@heatherrennie2692]

Hello Shinchi and Satoshi Please don't worry I adore both your channel and Satoshi channel where he Cookson and your sisters channel too.. Niki Niki, Kantofood by Satoshi and Will Travel For Food.I love them all. Thank you for showing your beautiful Jhome of Japan.i love learning about different cultures. I've set my heart on Hokkaido for the Snow Festival then Toyko After That Okinawa and South Korea. Take care and stay safe. Xx

[@jhhjams1234]

OMG! Just love your videos. The pottery looks so beautiful! Do the pottery place have website to order?? Enjoy your evening you both! JoAnn Sigby

[@Shinichisworld]

No website that I know of but they are beautiful aren’t they?

[@shampoovta]

Oh kitty 🐱 sweetie. Very kindly of the kitten to say hello. Your walk is lovely 🥰 your healing me and my husband up right now. We are getting over the stupid C word.

[@Shinichisworld]

Hoping that you both have a quick recovery.

[@christineazmi5111]

❤️❤️❤️

[@jj72rg]

any local guide in finding the mystic "大国林道"? very few info online but I heard it's a obscure mountain passage cutting thru the heart of okinawa

[@LWJCarroll]

I enjoyed this thanks, sitting in my lazyboy chair, knees up so my iPad is just right…lol…Laurie NZ

[@adel-711]

Go to the beach and cool off

[@paulinetan781]

Hi. which month was this filmed that is so hot? Pl indicate in video so pp will know the weather and period. TQ

[@AVan-xg9vy]

what time of year is this? I cannot stand the heat, so I like to know when NOT to go. Thanks

[@Busha69]

Okinawa is subtropical but it gets pretty cool during the winter. So your best bet is to go off season which is from like mid November to mid April. If you are are not interested in swimming in the sea, it's the ideal time to visit Okinawa. But on the other hand, the heat is much more manageable in Okinawa because of the sea breeze. I definitely suffered during summers more after I moved to Kyoto.

[@heatherrennie2692]

Hello Shinchi and Satoshi What do you need if say I was to visit Okinawa as I can drive in the UK. Looks like you are right side drive. Do Cars have Satnav or do you purchase them. What the rough estimate for say driving around for the week does Satoshilive around Okinawa area. take care guys enjoy your while we the viewers drool watching you both eating delicious foods and desserts. Xx

[@Shinichisworld]

Hi Heather. Don’t know much about purchasing cars in Okinawa, but we usually go with Toyota Rental. Right now renting a car in Okinawa is quite expensive, perhaps around ¥7000-¥10000 per day. Making reservations way in advance is a must. All cars come with a navigation system installed. Hope this helps

[@majeegoc]

Im traveling to Okinawa next week and having a hard time booking car rentals through the internet, all of the are unavailable. I’m guessing it will be easier to rent a car when we’re already there. Do you have any recommendations on which company to use when you book your car rental?

[@Shinichisworld]

That’s a tough one because rental cars are very scarce at the moment. We found one through a company called Times.

[@MarkDuncan1]

Bad time to come to Okinawa. Covid is really bad here and emergency rooms are shut down. Lots of things closing early due to the medical state of emergency. I suggest postponing your trip if you can.

[@cpdaddy7]

Try Japanese companies such as Toyota, Nissan etc. I found nothing with Hertz, Avis etc.

[@KosmoAlx]

Dose Japan has an name for heaven? Because Okinawa looks allot like that.

[@keithmasumoto9698]

渚のバルコにで待ってて

[@adel-711]

Do you do anything except eating because all your videos is basically about eating ? do you guys visit monuments visit the historical sites ?

[@SUSHI_CHAMPLOO]

my wife and I have decided to move back to Okinawa. I miss it so much

[@Shinichisworld]

Welcome back!

[@MickMcClary]

Hello! I have enjoyed watching your video of Uruma, Teruya, and Yachimun no sato. I wish that you had been able to see the pottery shops and the glass-blowing areas. I look forward to seeing more of your good videos! This video is one of my visits to Yachimun. こんにちは！ うるま、照屋、やちむんの里の動画を楽しく拝見させていただきました。 陶器店や吹きガラスの現場も見学できればよかったと思います。 あなたの良いビデオをもっと見るのを楽しみにしています! このビデオは、やちむんを訪れたときのビデオです。 kzbin.info/www/bejne/gqfLiIiDmNieg68si=8I7YLZneILijck0-
