Arigatō for the tips! I’ll be solo’ing Hakone in Autumn. My stay will only be a day tho so your insight really helped me. 😇

[@golddigger888]

Nice video, I'll be there in may :-). question: I'm planning to take the romance car/train as well. Is it possibe to bring luggage (mid size) on board?

[@weejyworld]

yes, that's possible! there's a luggage section where you can place your luggage, and i had a large 26" luggage with me :) if you can, i would recommend going early so you're the first few in queue to board the train! sometimes there might not be enough space in your cabin's luggage deposit area, so you'll have to place your luggage in another cabin. going early helps to avoid that!

[@timothyvales4555]

Thanks for this video! I really enjoyed it. Im doing a solo trip to Hakone in October, so I was wondering if you had any advice on what to hit for a 1 day trip specifically?

[@weejyworld]

hi timothy! i'm so glad to hear you enjoyed the video 🥰 will you be driving or taking public transport? and what's your previous stop before hakone? i'm asking because i think that would influence where you might want or can go in hakone within a day!

[@timothyvales4555]

@@weejyworld im planning on taking public transport (both while in Hakone and coming from Shibuya, Tokyo)!

[@weejyworld]

@@timothyvales4555 hmm perhaps the hakone shrine, hakone sightseeing cruise and mishima skywalk? i'm not sure if it'd be possible for you, but try to reach hakone shrine by 8am latest to avoid the crowds! if not, consider heading over at sunset - i read online that the view is great and there would be much less ppl as well among the places i introduced in my vlog, i think i would deprioritise owakudani and the old tokaido road/ amasake tea house if i only had one day to spend in the area!

[@timothyvales4555]

@@weejyworld Good call on sunset at the Hakone shrine! Dont want to be with the crowd if I can help it... Thank you for the advice!

[@weejyworld]

@@timothyvales4555 no prob! lmk if it's really less crowded at sunset so i can share this tip with others more confidently haha

[@shantellegatson7205]

Would love to rent a kimono near the area. Do you have any suggestions?

[@ralphadventure5176]

I like your video very relaxing

[@weejyworld]

aww, thank you!

[@anandvsamuel]

Thanks for sharing the video, by the description I just wanted to confirm with you again, was this in April 2023, and what was the temperature at that time in Hakone, it looks pretty cold by your dress.

[@weejyworld]

hello! yes, this was in April 2023 and it was pretty cold. i can't remember the exact temperature for sure, but i think it ranged from single digit to less than 20 degrees celsius. also, it was really windy at some parts, which made it feel even colder than the forecasted temperature!

[@aetherstarry4966]

Wow it was awesome that there aren't many people there when you visited. May I know when was this? I'm going in late april next year (20ish) and wondering if I'd be as lucky as you 😂

[@weejyworld]

i was there from 9 - 11 Apr! which are the popular attractions you're planning to visit? for hakone shrine, i reached at 7am and it was just me and another couple thank goodness haha

[@tiffanid.5700]

Nice video :) can I ask you where the outdoor onsen is located at? Thank you !!

[@weejyworld]

hello! the outdoor onsen is located within Onsen Guesthouse Tsutaya, which was where I stayed in hakone! :)

[@richardbarba2736]

Hey man cool vlog bro

[@weejyworld]

thanks!

[@reikaze9390]

I just visited Hakone 2 weeks ago! It was so freaking cold I think it hit 0 one day 😢 I was super underdressed too haha. Hakone is so pretty but I just hate the bus schedules, once you miss one you have to wait ~15-30minutes (IN THE COLD) for the next one. Wish I stayed in a Ryokan with onsen like yours because there really isn't much to do at night as the buses don't run / are super infrequent

[@weejyworld]

omggg that's really cold! for some reason, hakone tends to end up much colder than expected... i'm traveling back to the area this month, and i'm packing much warmer clothing this time haha

[@crisf8018]

I am going to hakone in a month! What time you see the mount fuji at day 3? I wish to see it 😊

[@weejyworld]

hello! i saw mount fuji around 10am that day :) hope you get clear skies when you visit hakone in may!🤞🏻

[@Sofih]

which is the name font? (your video is amazing!)

[@weejyworld]

thanks! i used DM Serif Display, Garet and Apple Braille in this video :)

[@venicelee1782]

Love the video, I'm planning to go tokyo soon and visit hakone as well. May I know what's the food store called at 12:24 (the homey one)

[@weejyworld]

hello! it was called restaurant ran, but according to google maps it seems to have closed down a few months back that’s why i didn’t include it in the video… here’s the google map link in case it helps: maps.app.goo.gl/dkb9uuPyv8rnkwQs5?g_st=ic

@@weejyworld awww Issok. Thanks for tellinggg

[@potterfan007]

Hey there! Are we allowed to go into the onsen with a swimsuit?

[@weejyworld]

nope, not for the onsens in tatsuya ryokan! but their onsens were empty on both nights i visited, so... i hope that might help make it less intimidating for you!

[@deanbay]

Was this the beginning of April?

[@weejyworld]

hi, yes! i was there from 9 - 11 Apr :)

[@kellykellycelery]

Been there long ago. That place looks the same after 24 years. Im surprised. Maybe shouldn’t go back hakone

[@weejyworld]

wow that's amazing! in the sense that they have managed to preserve the place really well 🤯

[@tuhinsheikhdm]

I have some insights about your channel. Your video quality, cinematography, and storytelling are very good. But the thumbnail is average and the video SEO section is very poor.

[@ctsh7528]

so true! the story telling is awesome! why do you say that the SEO is poor though? just curious.

[@tuhinsheikhdm]

@@ctsh7528 As a digital marketer, I have analyzed that the channel is not fully optimized.

[@TwoFourFrames]

I actually clicked on her video because of that clean thumbnail so u r wrong there bro

[@tuhinsheikhdm]

@@TwoFourFrames i agree with you bro. Her video thumbnail is clean but not eye catchy.
