Now here's the most beautiful love story: Me and you? Though we have fallen short of the glory of God by comitting just one sin which we deserve death and hell for, the Good News is that God loved us soo much that He, All-Powerful and All-Knowing Spirit came to earth in a human body as Jesus Christ, the fullness of God bodily, to live a perfect life keeping and fulfilling all laws and commandments, not sinning ONCE, and then sacrificing Himself on a cross for YOU! By shedding His Blood, He paid the penalty for your sin so that you could be washed clean from all sins and develop a personal relationship with God and spend eternity together with Him in Heaven. How awesome is that?! That's God's grace. All you have to do to accept His gift of grace is turn away from your sin and believe that Jesus is God, He shed His precious Blood for you and He is risen from the dead, He's in full control of your life that He rules over you. It's not by works or being a good person, it's only by God's grace through faith in Him. Jesus desires a personal relationship with you. Wow that is so incredible! Please turn to Him, He loves you so much and so do I!!

The best night of going out drinking in my life was in Tokyo this year. Absolutely unmatched energy. Wound up starting at the NY Bar and Grill, met some cool residents from Shinjuku and the next thing you know they're whisking us around until 7am lol. We rolled down at least 8 bars in Golden Gai, added like 3 more people, ate at some crazy local Chinese restaurant in an alley they knew that sat like 7 people and probably had never seen a tourist, and wound up laughing in a heap outside Shinjuku station by the Starbucks as people were starting their work days. Absolute peak adventure. This feels so close to that.

I was in Tokyo last March by myself for a week and I'm a little introverted but decided to go to these smaller bars. People were so friendly, funny & accommodating I drank until 6am in the morning most nights and a lot of my itinerary was left unchecked. Worth it though. Two things I noticed were Japanese girls are the best wingman for their friends & the bartenders are the coolest people around.

Our bipartisan polical system is enough to set us up for failure as a nation. As along as there are one side and the other, everyone will think theres are the correct one, which leads to never ending conflicts. That and our american culture where built on a lot of bloodshed, broken treaty, and segregations. Thats enough to put all sides on the defense. That being said, we are a young country thats very innovative. Its breeding ground for art which created a lot of cultral movements and technologies.

polite is not the same as nice. You can have a really cool evening or otherwise encounter with people, but that doesn't mean that you actually made friends. Don't idolize japan. It's just people being a bit drunk and in a friendly mood. Doesn't mean you'll ever see them again. I don't want to be over negative about japan, but I think you'll have an easier time making actual friends in most other countries. I lived in japan for a year and I'm pretty extroverted so I managed to make some friends. But there's plenty of people who stay in japan for a long time and all of their friends will just be other foreigners because it's so difficult to have actual friendships with japanese people.

My brother went to Japan a few years ago with 0 knowledge of the language and ended up with 4 new friends who showed him around for a week and treated him so well. This video reminded me of what he told me about his time in Japan, crowded back ally bars with excellent food and great times with completely random people. The culture is so much more respectful and accepting compared to here in Australia. I learned Japanese in high school and can still speak pretty fluently although very basic Japanese, enough to get me by id say. I have been dreaming of going to Japan for years now, as soon as I can get my business to run without me being here I'm gone for as long as I possibly can 💕🏯

My girlfriend is from Sydney and over the past two years I've gotten pretty decent at speaking basic 'strayan. I'm not totally fluent with the speaking part yet but I can understand it almost perfectly. We're hoping to take a holiday there later in the year, so I'll get a chance to put what I've learned to the test. Hooroo, mate! Have a great arvo! ✌🏼

This video is a prime example of how travelling vlogs should be made. Respecting the culture, speaking the language and having a blast. I hate all these privileged white guys that travel around and make videos for millions where they’re just so ignorant. “Oh look how dirty this street food stand looks” “ok give me this and that” and they stick the camera into the sellers face. This video on the other hand is respectable, and fun. And it’s not only because of alcohol, but because you’re a down to earth guy. Keep it up

When I was 18 and got into a dive bar in NYC in east village, the night was amazing as I danced with an older woman who's husband was watching me and stayed in the bar until 4 am. We played board games and shared a pizza delivery with strangers and that was the first time I smoke a cigerrete as a guy from belguim gave me his pack from brussels. This video takes me back as the best dive bars are the ones where strangers mingle and share convos !!

I lived in japan for a year. I had a couple of... incidents. police is never on your side (bike accident, not my fault, but they acted like it was, family tried to make me pay for ambulance. -> maybe don't suddenly jump on the bike lane if you don't want to get run over by a surprsied cyclist.) I got scam called at least once, where someone tried to pass off as a friend of mine. I was so confused that they thought this could work with me, but they tried their best. Some Taxi driver overtook me on the street only to immediately hit the brakes. Felt super inentional, like some insurance scam. Luckily I was paying attention. Didn't affect me: But one evening, chilling at kamogawa riverside, some teen/tween suddenly completely lost it and kicked another dude lying next to him in the head. It was completely reckless & cruel. No idea, if there was any lasting damage. Like, I made plenty of friends in that one year in Japan and met cool people but people shouldn't think that there are no bad people in japan. There's so much scamming. It's easy for a naive tourist to be lose a couple hundred bucks because they got lured into the wrong etablissement by a friendly face. If it's not against the law (or if they know the police will not be on your side) some people in Japan can and will scam you. Yes, you probably won't get shot or mugged in Japan, like it maybe could happen in some shady parts of an american town. But that's more of U.S. issue, not a Japan boon. I'm from Berlin and feel pretty save in most places because the meth/fentanyl drug epidemic hasn't quite reached us yet.
