Shimane Travel Vlog | national treasure, the ancient shrine, Japanese sleeper train

Subtitles in more than 10 languages are now available (so far only this video)!
Happy New Year!
I have uploaded this before the new year holiday vlog.
I stopped by Shimane on my way back from a work trip to Okayama, and this is it. Many of you have probably never heard of Shimane Prefecture, but some of you may have heard of Izumo Taisha shrine. It is a peaceful place with many other spots as well.

Hi there🇹🇭🇨🇳🇹🇼🇷🇺🇫🇷🇮🇹 I studied hard during the new year break and can now speak more than 10 new languages, so those subtitles are available in this video😎 Maybe it feels like an automatic translation, but never mind : )

[@valerio2658]

I’m glad you are trying to learn Italian! Are you enjoying it?

[@shawnsmith4692]

Wow that's impressive! I've been trying to learn Japanese with duolingo for a while now. It's not going very well 😅

[@memwewtokyo4793]

Wow, thanks, it gives me motivation to get back on learning Japanese language. It is really beautiful. I am truly enjoyed your videos. They are so beautiful and peaceful. I wanna makes something similar to yours in the future.

[@sorekaratravel4533]

[@memwewtokyo4793]

Haha, I knew it was a joke but I failed for it. Still, it give me motivation to study Japanese language again.

[@niamh307]

These vlogs are real stress relievers during exams. I can take a break from studying and feel like I've travelled the world. The cinematography is really calming. Thank you for your videos.

[@lambshepherd4377]

Thank you for including info about music so we can find these beautiful selections! "Downstreams" around 9:13 on Lake Shinji is... perfect! 👌

[@THETRIVIALTHINGS]

The whole town seems like a treasure. So peaceful. The kind of place I'd love to live. Less people, more peace and quiet and beautiful scenery.

[@Artix13]

That was great. On the longer side, so I broke it up into three parts. Lovely places, awesome to see lesser known parts of Japan. So, so pretty. Love your humour as well!

[@harisu1679]

i love your video so much, very calm. its become my escapism from my stressful life. 動画ありがとうございます

[@pilotgrrl1]

My friend Sarah was a university teacher in Shimane for a while. I still have the postcard of Matsue-jo she sent me somewhere. That was the beginning of my love affair with Japan! Thank you for the lovely trip!

[@yura-days]

This place is so peaceful and beautiful ❤️

[@mariposa8027]

Congratulations o your achievement Mr S. Glad to see you back.

[@Max19_08]

Ah, it is nearly midnight here in Germany. And I am so ready for this video and going to bed afterwards :) Have a good weekend folks!

[@hikari_sato_]

Every single time I hear the introductory music, I feel like I'm meeting an old friend after a tiring day. Thank you for uploading!❤

[@william719]

Thanks for sharing this video. When Japan opens up I definitely plan on visiting this beautiful town.

[@mariposa8027]

Thanks!

" I could have spent it relaxing at home, but decided to go to Shimane " ほんとうにありがとうございました~ thanku for ur effort to always share abt wonderful places to us^^

[@teroruishalme4141]

finally time to watch your video. Theme music in a beginning is a sign to relax and enjoy. So nice to see all those places, in real Life never going to have change to do. Happy you don't have too much music, can here the background noices as well. Thank you!

[@MonikaBury]

Your videos will probably be the reason that I will finally buy a TV to watch them in the best way :) Greetings from Germany

[@Niso_Sopas]

Nice! I wish I had the opportunity to take that sleeper train the last time I traveled to Japan. You took it all the way from Izumo, too!

[@edgarschmidt2823]

I am going through a lot of stress right now. By watching your video I had the chance to forget about my worries for 20 minutes. Your videos are very calming. :) Greetings from Germany

[@eternelle143]

You're a storyteller. Thank you for sharing this journey with us. I felt a sense of tranquility and even at times, humour. I hope, more than often, that you too enjoy the journey without looking through the camera. Until next time, take care. 😊

[@toddgrant7190]

Nicely done. My wife and I enjoy your videos.

[@treemerryweather]

thank you so much for this video. I am sitting by a window in southern California and I am overwhelmed. by the feeling of visiting that beautiful shrine. and thank you for offering more subtitles. ❤

[@jenjen9313]

The background music , the surroundings ,the castle, birds chirping, flowers and sunset...I just fell in love.

[@Japan.Nature]

Thank you for sharing this video and i expect more videos like this coming from you 💛💛💛

[@kamain4k]

The internal structure of a traditional Japanese building is really beautiful! The sunset sky is also beautiful!

[@FlexxenRandomPlaces]

Shimane is so underrated. The black torii of Izumo-taisha and it's story that you've told are so astonishing and warming for me. I want to visit that place particularly now!

[@JulieWatches]

I like how the places you visit aren't the typical tourist spots. Thank you for sharing the hidden gems of Japan with us!

[@AsianTestTaker]

What I like the best is your subtitles. Sometimes the combination of sarcasm and subtle jokes is golden.

[@StubbornTrekkie]

Danke!

[@sorekaratravel4533]

Danke so much!!

[@hopeclu]

Watching your video is like I am traveling side by you. Amazing work.

[@victormanuelurbinaaleman5877]

BEAUTIFUL VIDEO, I LOVE YOUR CONTENT, MUCH SUCCESS

[@jennycampbell5236]

Thanks to our Japanese daughter in law we travelled to lots of shrines by trains in Japan. Best way to go. We also went to a bird and flower park at Kakegawa. We were actually able to walk amongst a flock of emus, something we have never been able to do here in Australia! Really really hoping to come to Japan in December this year.

[@aryan_01]

This was so calming... 😌

[@Shaz221]

It's the special light and your eyes for the place that makes this video so special. Thank you for sharing 😊

[@dreamer7722]

Love love how aesthetic Shimane is!!

[@XxAMV4everxX]

Thank you for your video! It's really good to see so many fascinating places in Japan 🙂 greetings from Portugal 🇵🇹 obrigado! 👍

[@alekseikovalenko6316]

......relaxing and good as always -thanks man!

[@brodaniel5345]

Wow... Another moment of delight. A free trip to the beautiful Japan again. I may not be able to visit this place, yet, how heartfelt the every passing presentation, and seems I am in the very place, celebrating.... Thank you very much. Happy New Year.

[@karthiktee]

Wonderful video. Thanks!

[@Toneychaplin]

I'm currently taking Japanese and love pausing the video to see if i could read some signs. I'm only just beginning though. Great video as always!

[@WaraniWanua]

I visited Japan before pandemic. I amazed by the serene & peaceful of small towns there. I wish one day i could visit and stay longer in Japan to experience more. Thank you for your beautiful video

[@ed7783]

Thank you for your relaxing and peaceful video from Hong Kong

[@vhyleung]

I have only heard of Matsue, Shimane because I know it is the hometown of Kei Nishikori. Thank you for the relaxing trip :)

[@alfihasanHasan]

Thank you for the Indonesian subtitles

[@patrickswan4537]

Wow Ryo, your videos just get better and better, it was like I was travelling with you. The small, atmospheric details you notice and share with us make all the difference. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. Best wishes to you for 2022.

[@VerhoevenSimon]

Thank you for the video, you really have some delightful train rides!

[@rowan7553]

You always make my day by these soothing vlogs 🥰. Keep up the good work 👍👍. 🇮🇳 ❤️🇯🇵

[@karansutradhar7979]

Great men your videos have a unique kind of interest which inspires us to travel the country and visit our near by to explore and discover more and especially how to manage ourself.

[@nidhirao7728]

This was beautiful. It eased my anxiety as I'm going through exams and a generally stressful time. I looked up videos for Shimane, as I'm hoping to join University for my Masters there this winter. I was afraid about how the place will be as my boyfriend who lives in Tokyo has never been there and he wanted me to go to Tokyo. I think I will enjoy this tranquility and peace at Shimane. I think I am making the right choice by wanting to study in Shimane as I know I can always rely on the timely trains and flights back to Tokyo. Lots of love to you and to Japan.

[@user-13y578g]

Another relaxing trip, again thank you so much!

[@user-jd7od1vh8g]

Finally new video Each scenes look so amazing☁️☁️

[@ellenchikk]

Your videos are so atmospheric and relaxing... Musical and visual accompaniment complement each other perfectly. Thank you for introducing us to Japanese culture and giving us the opportunity to see Japan in everyday life, especially in such difficult times as now... I wish I could visit Japan someday... It's such a beautiful country with beautiful nature, culture, history and architecture. Thank you so much for your videos, Ryo! Greetings from Siberia, Russia!

[@stevew2926]

your footage capture is fantastic. it puts so many details that you feel like i am there. you are gifted. keep up the great work.

[@manjunathachourad2463]

It's from Hampi , INDIA 🇮🇳. Japan is always fascinates me , such a heaven place 💖. Especially videos like you shot awesome bro . It's absolutely worth travelling rather stay at home and explore new places 👌. Happy new year bro . I wish this year give you good health and prosperity at work and strenth to explore amazing places . Always pleasure to watch your videos . This on is Fantastic bro 👏

[@sumukhshankarhegde2853]

Im kannadiga as well ❤

[@kpop8082]

Please take us to more off the beaten paths and sleeper trains if you can. Stay safe! 🌸

[@amariluna]

Nothing as lovely and calming as one of your videos. I really enjoyed every second. The sunset in this one was just magnificent!

[@AmonAboooat]

I always get a little bit jealous when watching your videos of the countryside. Its so clean and peaceful while seemingly still having so much nature around. To live a simple life in the japanese countryside is somewhat appealing to me. Absolutely great video as always. Happy new year to you and good luck in 2022.

[@Pensile]

Thank you for taking us to Shimane, I really love this virtual picnic with you!! Take care, okay?! 😊

[@magicbilleh]

it's nice to see you back this new year! we were waiting for this! c:

[@K4n01]

7:36 LoL yep that's the shrine of love all right.

[@yukine5466]

Great video as usual! I like that this one was a long-one because the destination, the Shimane Prefecture, is a terra incognita to most foreigners but, as I can see now, is surely worthy visiting and exploring. Thank you for sharing these previously unknown landmarks of Japan with us!

[@BelloAlbero]

È bello vedere che hai un grande senso dell'umorismo. La vita senza umorismo è noiosa.☺👍Grazie

[@gabbee1935]

i appreciate and love your videos. they calm and keep me grounded all the time. thank u very much!

[@teresawilliams1865]

Thank you for taken us with you!!! That sunset was beautiful, that theme park is so beautiful I love birds. You are so right it is a beautiful place thank you for taken us there. How was your new year?😊

Hello Everyone, Just received notice of the winners in the Hatsu-KZbin contest, for the first video of the new year. Congratulations are extended to our own Ryo, 'aka' Sorekara Melancholy, who has earned the Excellence Award, by popular vote! Many of the voters expressed their love & gratefulness for his deep insight & sensitivity in capturing the healing power of nature & the wholistic place humans have in the natural world. They also referenced his previous videos, for their supernatural ability to sooth, inspire, comfort, relax, 'take them along' & help them endure difficult times. Thanks to all the kind fans & fellow-travelers for their support...and Ryo, for his priceless contributions!!

[@sorekaratravel4533]

Thank you very much. I am very honored. It's been my dream since I was born to win this award. I would like to express my gratitude to all my fans who have always supported me. And... well, all joking aside, thank you!

Thank you for the new video! It was really interesting and I enjoy your sense of humor xD I also prefer traveling by train if I have the chance

[@ohjajohh]

12:24 interesting that it's called "vogel-park" the word "vogel" means bird in Dutch

…and German.

[@babi485]

Thank you for your lovely video and thai subtitles!! A place in Japan is really beautiful for me. I want to try and visit for once. สวัสดีปีใหม่ค่าา เย่เย่🎉

[@wildzero7777]

You've taken some lovely shots, and your editing is great! I've never visited Shimane, but was familiar with it from the setting of the 'Root Letter' visual novel. I hope to be able to see it for myself sometime :)

[@beaferca8375]

Me encantan tus vídeos! 😍 Me relajan y me enseñan cosas cotidianas de tu país. Gracias 😊

[@johndematis8331]

I missed your videos these past few weeks. And you came back with a great and long travel vlog. Wonderfully captured as always - I felt like I was on a trip as well. Once again you've helped my anxiety ease off a little. Really love these small and peaceful towns, kinda wish I lived there. Actually I'd love it if one day I could move to a similar place in Japan, just for a couple of years. By the way, I hope your drone is fine now.

[@roybateman5840]

Thank you for this lovely video. It made me feel like I was strolling through Matsue again! You have captured the beauty of the water city. (On my first trip to Matsue, I thought I had a ticket for a regular early-morning train from Okayama to Matsue, but it turned out to be the Sunrise sleeper train and I was surprised to find that my "seat" was a nobi-nobi carpeted platform!)

[@lorrainealba9370]

Happy new year Ryo! Its been awhile, but again always worth the wait!Thank you for taking us to Shimane today and for the infos in the vlog. Looking forward to more beautiful videos this year while we cannot still travel back to Japan. Stay safe ☕️

[@ShinshMr]

영상 너무 마음에 드네요. 이 영상을 보고 있으면 마치 혼자 여행을 하는 기분이라고 할까. 감사합니다👍

You're back! :D

Thank you for taking us with you via virtual vacation 😊.
