I'm grateful for the memories and experiences Japan has given me, it's a place that stays with you long after you've left.

I Was Wondering what type of Drone do you Have I would love to get that version on Amazon.

6:27 homegirl has GOT to be Black. If not...bombastic side eye!!

[@ChewsToExplore]

Haha I gotta agree, she has to be black!

[@GlimpseGetaways]

Great videos guys! Ask hotels about complimentary hotel stays. Rather than have vacant rooms they'd rather have customers spending on other things like tours, restaurants or casinos. Cheers

[@ChewsToExplore]

Thank you for supporting our channel. We are so happy that you got something form the video. I will definitely look at speaking to hotels about this

[@cda7889]

How do you compare the lit up parts of Shinsekai and Dotonburi?

[@ChewsToExplore]

Great question, honestly I feel like dotonburi was way more lively. But shinsekai was super cool as well

[@AndrewWilliams-hq2qz]

mannnnn the way me and my wife would be cuddling up on this overnight bus if we weren't travelling with our daughter lol

[@ChewsToExplore]

Thank you for the support to our channel! Glad you found some value in our content! Yes it may be a little difficult with your daughter haha. We truly appreciate the support

[@bradc2877]

Hello all! I was wondering if it is practical to do day trips to Osaka from Kyoto? Meaning, if my wife and I had the appropriate rail cards and used the right transportation methods would it then be practical to stay in a hotel in Kyoto and train to Osaka for a couple of day trips? Thank you for your time!

[@ChewsToExplore]

Yes it is only like an hour away. We did it during our stay. Went back and forth. We even went to Nara nearby too!

[@danaelizaramirezcastillo9655]

Hay, how did you get the overnigth bus so sheep... Please Let me know

[@ChewsToExplore]

We booked it in advance and that was the price

[@veronikaz2509]

where do you get the amazing pass? and is this only for osaka or other cities?

[@ChewsToExplore]

here is the link to the amazing osaka pass. They have them for a bunch of cities as well! www.klook.com/activity/82312-amazing-pass-osaka/

[@adoreto8404]

May I know if you buy a one day Amazing Osaka Pass in the evening 7-8pm will it be usable until the next day's 7-8pm? or

[@ChewsToExplore]

Hello, thanks for the support, I believe it is for 1 day that you activate it and not 24 hours

[@bishanboy]

Osaka is very clean. I hardly see any litter

[@ChewsToExplore]

I appreciate your observation! It's nice to know that efforts are being made to keep Osaka clean.

16:28 The deer actually bowed its head?? And it perfectly understood you?? 😮😮

@@ChewsToExplore will do

[@spark_6710]

The statute of a woman's face looked like a black woman more like you said !! But,believe or not ,you'll see lots of Japanese kids & people look more like black people in the south of Japan !! Black people & ancestors of the native Americans really immigrated everywhere in the world !! Amazing !! And the most of hybrid people are black !! You rule !! Lol 👍 😆 💜 🥁 🐉 🎤 🎶💞

[@ChewsToExplore]

Thank you so much for the continuous support. I have to agree I think its great that they have a black woman there and a strong black population!
