Anyone else get the feeling that when he said "Look at that view!", he wasn't just talking about the river 😉

[@aniar.3314]

He definitely wasn't haha!

[@areanasanchez9507]

ikr!! lol i hope they hook up. they would make such a cute couple

[@pvkat1982]

I know filming and editing all of this in one day can be difficult but I just wanted you to know how much myself and others love and appreciate the daily uploads. It's nice to get a glimpse at such a beautiful country and culture. I hope one day to make a trip to that part of the world.

[@localwaternymph]

Yes, I second this!! Thank u so much for sharing Sharla, you inspire me to travel the world!! Happy Holidays! 🌎💓 🎄

[@DBac0n00]

When she was eating her bento it looked like a fake background cause it was so perfect

[@Start.a.curvolution]

The nature looks so great there. I have to confess that I'm more interested in the countryside of Japan than the big cities. My brother used to lived in Kyoto and he was always escaping to nature at the weekend

[@notheretodayortomorrow]

The flower you pointed out: is a blue hydrangea. My mom grew a lot of them. She had a massive garden surrounding our house. It was beautifully put together on an acre of land, with a small forest of their own, in behind. I'm turning 26 in January, my name is Maggee, and I'm on the coastal side of BC, Canada🖐 She passed away this August, after my parents had to leave their house behind. It's been a long night. I'm having some PTSD. I always look forward to your videos. They always put me in a good place. Thank you 💛

What a perfect trip! The sweet staff, the food, the VIEW!! I think it's so cool that you can go on a trip alone and meet so many new people. Japan is so cool that way. Imagine camping alone in Canada? haha. Thank you so much for bringing us along :D This is so awesome to see, and I hope you're enjoying your trip too! That temple was so beautiful. Much love from Ontario

You always find such cool places to stay! Every time you take a trip my Japan itinerary grows! 😆❤

I just spent the weekend in the falls with my boyfriend!! It’s cool there! Lots of like tourist stuff to buy. Lol but you can find the right places! And there’s really nice hiking spots around there just by the waterfall! I like to go for little get aways even tho I only live half an hour away aha.

[@loxdrevous9103]

Watching this video was so relaxing. All the music used in this video, all the views and waterfalls was so refreshing

[@angela2389]

I would love to see you do more of these glamping videos! I can't believe I missed this video when it first came out. This is amazing and thanks for even more great traveling ideas.

[@EyseaSol]

It's cold shock/heat shock therapy. Work out, cold shower. Sauna, Ice bath....etc. Super beneficial for the body! This is such an awesome camp site. Look at that view! Yes, indeed.

[@ThinkHarder]

as i watch the 2020 vlog i can see behind the beautiful smile some anxiety about whats going on presently, she is strong

The staff was so nice, seeing good and happy people like that really put a smile on my face.

It's so fun to watch how adventurous you've been, this year!

This really is a dream vacation, simple and refreshing!!! Things like cruises and extravagant vacations never appealed to me, this is perfect 🥺💞

Same! I love how chill and relaxing it was🥰

Sharmeleon Yes!! Im glad you enjoyed yourself! When I eventually visit Japan one day I’d love to visit this place 🥰

The staff remind me of summer camp counselors! They all seem to love working there and with each other! Southern Japanese folk seem so happy from what Ive seen! Reminds me of Southern France!

[@kammymarie13]

I took a train like that with the big windows when I went to Takayama and Kanazawa and it was so gorgeous! It really does feel like a Ghibli movie going through all the old villages and untouched countrysides! You really miss out on the views when you take the shinkansen or stick to the big cities.

[@MrLargePig]

What a thoroughly beautiful place! This is what I find alluring about Japan- I've seen cities, they're all much the same. The countryside and small villages don't get enough attention.

[@alansu65ahus]

I can find how you love countryside. I didn't know this place, but you showed me fantastic scenery, especially huge waterfall, long wooden bridge, temple in night lighting. I wish to visit someday, thank you.

[@pinetree7296]

the sauna would been my cherry on top! Hike all day come back clean off in ice cold water come back to a hot sauna , have few drinks and few dips in the water before dinner soak in the atmosphere ,slice of of heaven there :D

[@bowgertool]

It is really nice to see you enjoying my old home town. I spent my teenage in Taketa where Chikuraku is held, had school excursion to Yujaku park when the leaves are red. If you had next chance do visit Oka castle ruin for magnificent view of mountains surrounding. Sakura season is highly recommended. Thanks for sharing great movies!

[@zierrahikari1122]

The area is absolutely beautiful. I love old-looking Japanese houses and japan's countryside. It looks soo peaceful, I really would love to go there one day

[@gyqz]

Anyone else really enjoying the sound of people walking on cobble stones? What an absolute beautiful place that is there....I'd really love to go there some day. Thank you for this awesome video.

[@jeanham211]

wow what beautiful areas you visited and such awesome staff at that unique place you stayed at

[@pandamonster00]

The town reminds me of the town in the movie Your Name.

12:34 sharla, your canadian is showing "that's interesting, eh?" 😂💜

[@alyssarogers9325]

Sharla, this is AMAZING! What a picturesque, well-rounded trip! It looked so restful but adventurous at the same time. So inspired to visit this countryside

[@Maxid1]

6:59 I've done a hot sauna outside at Lake Tahoe in the winter and jumped into a snow bank. You can walk from the sauna back to your room without a problem once your core temperature is that high, even with just shorts on and barefoot . Even with some wind it was still comfortable. The ice plunge is what can be pretty cold but you're practically seconds from your room or back into the hot tub so it's not that bad and it does help you sleep. Its like a 4 hour workout that leaves you completely relaxed.

[@adrianspiritflame]

The staff members just seem so awesome and kind and great place seems so relaxing :)

[@Lilialove1]

You are so fun to watch. I really want to visit Japan with my husband. I make him watch your videos with me and you are slowly convincing him to finally plan a trip. We are both from Vermont, Usa and we easily relate to your experiences in and out of Japan. so Thank you for taking the time to make amazing videos ;)

[@madelk7441]

I am so glad that you are so well. We all have bad days sometimes and my encouragements are Sharla, Taylor and some German KZbinrs. Thank you, Sharla, and I hope you will experience the best December of all time.

[@freakMasha]

Such an interesting and beautiful location! I would never find something like that on my own. I'm totally convinced to go to places like that and not traditional Tokyo-Kyoto-Osaka route on my first visit. Especially after Rachel and Jun moved to Fukuoka I really wanna visit Southern part. Japan has so much to offer! I've been watching you for 3 years I think and still fascinated by all the places you visit.

[@wendysmith6184]

i love the way you show us places to explore that are away from the tourist spots, Japan is such a beautiful country😍😍😍

[@triforceofdragons]

Having watched your channel for a good few years now, I love these videos that show these really beautiful places outside of Tokyo. I'd never heard of Bungo-ōno until this video, and will definitely be adding it to my list of places to visit when I visit Japan one day! That temple was so beautiful, and the bamboo festival looks so gorgeous

[@TheNails3]

What a wonderful trip! I liked the music near the end, it sounded Totoro-esque :)

[@TheSarste]

Wow! What a STUNNING location! I really enjoyed this video. And I love that you're happy to go places on your own and meet new people. I have a lot of respect for you, Sharla.

Omg I wanna pick fresh mushrooms that look so delicious. And the little pyramid house!! Reminds me of sleeping in little wood Lodge houses when I worked at a summer camp. So lovely! Thanks for showing us such a wonderful place.

As someone who prefers to solo travel, I love when you post videos when you travel and visit places alone. I'm considering coming to japan for my 40th birthday next year and this place looks amazing. Considering I dont speak Japanese, would this camping place be okay to visit? I noticed that one of the staff speaks English, but just wanted to make sure!

[@sharlainjapan]

Definitely!! The staff are great at English (some are native) ❤️

[@BethRaddatz]

@@sharlainjapan Thanks! How about taking the train there from, say, Tokyo? I imagine the signage and transportation uses less English in the countryside?

[@sharlainjapan]

All signs/trains etc have English actually! Japan is great for that, even out in the countryside!

[@BethRaddatz]

@@sharlainjapan This is all awesome information! Thanks for your replies. I was thinking of signing up for a food tour around Japan, but it is SO expensive and I feel like I can not only save money but have a more interesting time doing solo trip. Time to start compiling cool places to travel to and places to eat. So much research and I will definitely be using your videos to help with that. :) Any and all suggestions are welcome (from you or any of your subscribers!). Thanks again!
