You both just influenced me into using a round trip ticket to Japan. Your dogs are so professionally made yet relaxing.

Vlogs not DOGS LOL

forreallll, now i have this uncontrollable urge to book a trip to japan asap🫠🤣

@@KellyStamps I read this before finishing her video and I was like ??? until I saw your own reply HAHA

Your reply got me here for sure! 😂😂😂 thinking what exactly dogs did mean here, where were those dogs in this video

saw your channel and now am sure , this was no autocorrect all this because you work in TECH in 860k TECH job😂😂😂😂😂😂

I love your haul! Everything you picked up is so stylish but also done with mindful intention. Thanks so much for sharing your Japan adventures and makes me excited to visit someday too!

[@pamjudge9691]

Your vlogs are a joy to watch, theyre so professionally made. Having lived in HK for 10 years and now back in Australia, Im looking forward to seeing more of HK!

[@linabelinda2891]

I’m love your videos! You two put so much thoughts into the filming and editing! Now I need to go back to Japan and find that GU jacket !

[@Dasha-vs2jl]

You have the best Tokyo blogs I’ve ever seen gorgeous and chock full of exciting things and cute finds! Thx for sharing

[@elyse3884]

I just love your shopping vlogs. It’s amazing that the thrifted items are cleaned and pressed. Here in the NY/ NJ area, most thrift stores are messy and the clothes are not in as good condition (imo). You both have a keen eye and look great in all your picks. Glad you made it back home with all of your luggage and “treasures”. Wishing you both a very Happy Holiday! 🥰☃️🎶🎁

[@SamandVictor]

Same in Canada- although I try not to call it thrifting in Japan since it’s curated and cleaned… whereas my thrift stores in Canada is straight from a donation pile!

[@brookf4475]

I watch your videos in the gym while doing cardio and have been loving them so much. Thank you for the time you put in! It’s lovely to see these different places :)

[@SamandVictor]

Ah thanks for watching during your workout!

[@smeLLyphant37]

Another lovely video! Thank you! They have an Ogawa coffee shop in Boston, not sure if it’s the same. Thanks for bringing us along for vintage shopping!

Hi Sam and Victor, I think both of you nailed the awesome shopping spots in Tokyo. Will take notes and visit :)

[@aliaelborai]

This is the first video i discover from your channel and oh my I loved it !

[@anne.margaret]

Ahhh so glad you went to Amore! I didn’t even realize they have 2 stores dedicated to diff brands. I’m also planning to go there in January, so excited!

[@SamandVictor]

Yea so go according to your brand preference (but tbh they’re just a 2 min walk from each other)

[@stayfierce]

thrifting wasnt on my itinerary for Japan but after watching this I definitely am going to check out shimokitazawa! thx

[@lydia2494]

I just found your vlogs, and I absolutely love your world. I am European, living between Australia and Bali, and it's so interesting to see your life. In many ways, it's very different and yet very similar at the same time. Thank you for sharing❤

[@SamandVictor]

Thank you so much!!

[@scotthennelly6946]

Thanks for all the effort you put into the video! We're heading to Japan soon and this was helpful 🙂

Im glad you like my city. Thank you ! 💙

[@lisama4903]

Hi guys, I just came back from Japan last week. The shopping and food is to die for. I looked through the vintage and used clothing stores. But I found them to be so expensive. I found one in Hiroshima that was so beautiful . Many levels and lots interesting stock. But nut enough room in my case . A lot of big items . But so cool. ❤

[@typicallymeee]

theres some used clothing stores like mode off and tanpopo house that have very cheap stuff

[@abiseverydaylife1186]

the vintage Prada at around 18:30 is so cute!!!!

[@helouisehartzenberg1026]

I really enjoyed watching ur vlog

[@esterphoon9520]

Really feel good enjoying to watching your vlog❤

[@crimsonriverYT]

Hi. Love the Japan series and the earlier Paris series. Great vibes and aesthetics. Appreciate the authenticity too, where you not just feature the posh hotels you stay but also the more functional hotels you interspersed with during your trips. That’s exactly what we do too. One question, for the Akari lamp, does the voltage work in HK or there’s some kind of dual voltage plug?

[@interestcatalog]

Love the relaxing, aesthetic vlogs without a lot of talking. Did you use any local apps (for food or transportation) while traveling in japan?

[@BnD2022]

Your vlog is really nice

[@saraperezcano3992]

This was actually pretty cool and chic. I was looking for these vibes all over KZbin and finally there's something no lolita over here. Thank you.

That GU jacket looks great. Tried to find a way to get it to the UK but can’t find it online! Looks like they have a store in New York but that’s it overseas

[@okmykim]

love ❤

[@vicklet6253]

You should have bought the Lowe’s jacket. Then all you need is Menards, you’ll be all set. All the thrift shops were packed with shoppers. Glad it did not deter you from going in. Me, I like to shop where it is quiet. I forgot to add Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

[@SamandVictor]

Yea I would’ve gotten that Home Depot leather one in a heartbeat if Hong Kong had a longer winter season! Wasn’t worth the money for the duration of time I could wear it (but I do semi regret it haha)

[@micstify]

where did u get ur white cargo pants? love it

[@nowgaku]

Life is good!

[@audreysopoco]

Uggghh I’m so upset I didn’t get to have a shopping experience like yours! The things you got were sooo good. But I’m obsessed with the metallic pink Diesel mini bag, do you remember how much it was?

it was ¥60,500!

“How many cups of coffee would like to have every day” Victor: "Yes"

[@jackho2965]

wow congrats on getting the Akari light sculpture Isamu Noguchi lamp! Do you think they would be able to order more if asked ?

[@SamandVictor]

I went into MOMA once and they told me they didn’t have stock but when I checked their online shop you could order! So I asked that girl we had just met to call MOMA to ask if we purchased online could we ship to the shop.. ends up they just sent a couple lamps to the physical store and we had one reserved under our name (but didn’t need to pay). I would get your hotel concierge to help you call the shop to ask if they can do the same thing (or ship to your hotel)

[@jackho2965]

Thank you ! Especjally for such a detailed response! I've been wanting noguchi lamp for years

Where did you find the converse lightsole sneakers?

[@Shartyy]

Very interesting , can I ask you about that coffee at Ogawa? How did it taste ? What is the salted milk ? Really wonder 🤔 Thought it may taste like coffee w. salted caramel syrup or sth like that ha😅

[@TokyoCapsuleCollection]

Has the Japanese Yen's depreciation affected your shopping? Thanks for the great video.

[@samanthalst]

Hey Sam, was wondering about the Converse you bought. I can't seem to find it in my home country; do you mind sharing the full product code/name with me? I tried to search the name up (converse light sole sneakers) but couldn't find any 🥺

[@elizabethwestbay]

What type of new balance are those?

[@ionniechoy]

Omg how much was that diesel blue denim texture long sleeve with metal logo on the front?? 😍😍😍 I’m going to Tokyo from Vancouver in Jan so Idk if I should get it here or there

[@SamandVictor]

Prob cheaper here because you get tax back but who knows if it’ll still be here- so get it in Canada!

Hi Paul! It should be correct- if you google map the shop across ‘New York joe shimo’ it’s the shop right across. But here’s the address again: 小清水ビル 1階, 2 Chome-35-9 Kitazawa, Setagaya City, Tokyo 155-0031, Japan
