I'm a big fan.. if my dad gets transferred to Japan, I'm going to make videos just like you! Inspiring content..😊

[@sahelisengupta9969]

Can you please show us a editing tutorial?

[@WanderingLatte]

Hi! This was a paid partnership with visit japan right? Please dont forget to put paid promotion💜

[@SolLife_]

[@chelle.chelle]

What I love about Japan is giving 200% in merging the ancient and modern, the traditional and contemporary, the culture and progress. No in betweens, it’s either they’re in and out, which results to the most beautiful pairings I’ve seen.

[@omaerin3529]

Thanks for taking me on your trip, it was beautiful, especially the gardens. Stay well and safe.

[@SolLife_]

Glad you enjoyed it! 🍵

[@NickSchraser]

this channel is really underrated, I really love it!

[@SolLife_]

Glad you enjoy it!🥰

[@katecosettevocals]

You picked the PERFECT music to go along with that garden and that teahouse, I think that was my favorite sequence of scenes of your videos yet!!

[@SolLife_]

Glad you enjoyed it! Finding the right music is definitely my favourite part 🥰🎶

[@cherie4665]

I visited Kanazawa in May. There weren't a lot of tourists. My visit also coincided with a festival at that time. Kanazawa is truly one of the highlights of my trip. The city has so many types of flowers in spring, and every alley in their neighborhoods smells like someone is cooking the best broth ever. Their market sells fresh, affordable sashimi that could be bought and eaten on the spot I also went to the cute Ishiura shrine! Everything in Kanazawa is so cute and calm ❤ I will definitely revisit

[@SolLife_]

Totally agree! Such a cute city definitely want to visit again 🥰✨

[@mariangato]

I love Japan through your lens 💖✨️

[@SolLife_]

Thank you 🥰

[@hance2601]

The sunset view was amazing...🥰 and the local foods were looked delicious.🥰

[@dianebaker5243]

This is a really lovely video too watch thanks for sharing 🥰👍

[@SolLife_]

Thanks for watching!

[@dongypooh]

Wonder if someone would start running 'Coffee Count' for your videos. Your addiction to caffeine is..., admirable. 😄 (I'm writing this as I drink my morning coffee.)

[@SolLife_]

Thank you 😂☕️☕️

[@missmilimakk2246]

Kanazawa is my favorite city in the Ishikawa prefecture. Visited during Sakura season and had a wonderful kimono photo shoot along the river and Higashi Chaya Gai district. Absolutely beautiful! Thank you for taking me down memory lane. I hope to go back again. Enjoy the Gifu prefecture as well! It's a truly amazing and wonderful place to visit. Must visit the amazing Iwase-ke house. The owners are lovely and give the tour as well.

[@SolLife_]

I saw some people doing photo shoots there as well! Looked amazing! 🥰I had an amazing time in Gifu! Excited to share ✨

[@fmsalle2483]

To state the obvious, can we appreciate how amazingly well these vlogs are always made. Great camera work, the music is always wonderful, and you really feel the vibe and spirit of all the places. Thank you

[@SolLife_]

Thank you! Glad to hear that! ☺️

[@thelegendofzelda3459]

13:50 Oh, how cute! I didn't know they had barn swallows in Japan! They make their nests out of mud and straw, and build them under the eaves of buildings to give them protection from owls. We always end up with a new pair of them in the summer every year, and settle down over our front porch here in Georgia (USA). They make the cutest chattering sounds, and I've often found myself wondering if they're just having full blown conversations with it, it's really fascinating and soothing to listening to them. :)

[@anabilalbs6957]

thank you for let us know about how beautiful japan is when they can make a perfect combination in one place 🥰

[@kiyoshitakeda452]

Nice area which reminds me of Kyoto. Like the old style buildings and quiet streets. Enjoyed thank you

[@SolLife_]

Totally a quieter version of Kyoto!

[@suryakamalnd9888]

Hello Sol, Thank you very much for your video on kanazawa. I really enjoyed it and when I go to Japan, I'll definitely stop by. Everything was fabulous. The beautiful garden, the sumptuous sanctuary, not to mention the gentle way of life. Thank you for sharing, Sol. Good day to you. Alain.

[@SolLife_]

Hi Alain! Glad you enjoyed it! Hope you get to visit soon. Have a great day 🌻

[@AmbientWalking]

Everything about this journey really makes want to run out an make more videos! Thank you! So inspiring!

[@benjaminyan2658]

I miss Kanazawa, I like how it wasn't too busy and for the most part calm. Miss that trip of going to the onsen in Gifu, Shirakawa, and Takayama.

[@SolLife_]

It was such a lovely place! Definitely not as crowded as other areas of Japan. Shirakawago and Takayama coming up next ✨

[@CDEFGAB-us9cr]

My favourite city ❤ I liked it more than Kyoto Thank you for a nice video!

[@gemmaantolihao5647]

I've been visiting Japan every year with someone and I've visited one of the cafes in your videos (the one in Shibuya). Really like watching your videos but this one in particular made me really want to try solo travelling. I think I'll do that in my Japan trip next year! Thanks!

[@SolLife_]

Japan such a great place for solo travelling! I would recommend giving it a try ☺️💕

[@LetsFlyBluebird]

Love your videos ❤

[@SolLife_]

Thanks for watching! 🥰

[@yashasvi1495]

No, I have to do Market research and as I opened KZbin Your notification came in 😅 Let me guess it must be god's sign to take a break and then continue with the research🤣

[@SolLife_]

Breaks are also important 😂 hope you enjoy! 💕

[@katecosettevocals]

leaving another comment cause i left my other one when i was only halfway done with this one haha, just have to say i love your outfits and jewelry in this one!! need those rings, and that little blue backpack!

[@SolLife_]

Thank you so much!!☺️

[@ozerrozge]

Your videos make me so happy

[@SolLife_]

🥰❤️

[@dominicgarcia8220]

Your camera eye and editing is so surreal.😊

[@SolLife_]

Thank you! ☺️

[@pekaboo93]

I can't remember the name of the exhibit but the room with just the square in the roof, there is one by the same artist in a sculpture park near where I live in England and it's one of my favourite places to relax.

[@aRVeesBlog]

must be a nice experience

[@ezellouisyt]

Hey Sol! I've recently gone to Japan and I have been hooked with the idea ever since, so I watch your videos almost religously at this point because of how good they are at representing Japan! Howver, I wish yoh didn't put these HUGE subtitles in your video editing. You already have the captions built in with KZbin, I hope you do consider removing them or at least changing how they look. Thanks a lot and much love!

[@manbeerkaur2970]
