planning our trip there in Apr, great video and tips!

[@bevvyloo7952]

Thank you so much for sharing this. I had no idea about this part of Japan as I’ve never seen it on anyone else’s vlogs. It looks right up my street! 🤩 I really enjoy the dry humour in all your vlogs & I like seeing travel from a fellow British persons perspective as sometimes other nationalities can over egg the pudding 😬🤣 I’ve already planned a trip to South East Asia from watching your Singapore & Malaysia vlogs & it now looks like I’m adding Japan to my ever growing list! 🥰

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

What a lovely comment. Thank you for letting me know

[@eddavis1832]

Another wonderful video that truly leaves me green with envy. Thank you so much for sharing. As a history professor who lost a relative in the Battle of Okinawa, I would have liked to have seen a bit more of the conflict’s cultural and geo effects, besides the Islanders love of Spam. Keep up the great work…CHEERS!!! 🍻

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Haha fair enough. I originally had more info about the war history but it wasn’t really fitting the vibe of the rest of the video and ultimately I’m not as personally equipped to do such a serious important topic the justice it deserves so I’ll leave that to the history channels. Thanks for watching!

[@johnsullivan6843]

Wonderful video, this channel never disappoints! 👏 👏 👏

[@mum_with_the_peacock_tattoo]

So relieved about the pencil 😂 You guys should put a video out every week! My favourite vloggers

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Yeah, it’s good to know, right!

[@jenniferchan8459]

Always guaranteed to laugh out loud every time I watch your videos🤣Not to mention these videos are so helpful! Thank you !

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Glad you enjoy! Currently working on the next Japan video which is a stunner!

[@lydiakvlogs]

LOLed at the American flag comment hahaha great video as always!

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Well what other flag could it have been! 🇬🇧

[@littlekingking]

After just returning from mainland Japan from a 16 day adventure, I was left wondering what I may have missed in Okinawa. This hit the spot! Perfect timing. Thanks!

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Haha. There really is a good 2 months the average tourist could do in Japan.

[@yensiskos]

Heheh loved the video and the US English comment😂😂

[@costasworldofmusicmemories5792]

This video for us was a masterpiece . So well done, informative, visually beautiful ,witty and fun. We enjoyed our time in Okinawa . So chill. Indeed, Naha Okinawa is a hidden gem . Plan to get back very soon. Sounds like you guys had a wonderful time. All the best. 🙏❤🙏 Jim and Harriet, Richmond, Va.

[@RoseAnneLivao]

The vibe of Naha is so lively and beautiful-your video really captures its charm! ❤ Thanks for all you've shared in 2024! 😊

Loved this. Your japan videos are so awesome! I hope I can go there some day! Your PRIME reference was perfect 😂😂 thanks for the videos my wife and I watch every one!

Wow, I wouldn't mind visiting Okinawa. It look very peaceful and clean!

[@airfrischungoi5196]

Love your videos 🎉❤

I visited okinawa in February and saw humpback whales - absolutely magical!

[@proballah7]

Brill vid!

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Thanks 🤩

[@frankmisaege3520]

Stationed on Okinawa for 18 mo. Naha, is the capital city, but I wouldn't spend 4 days there. There's so much to see as you travel toward Okinawa city (next to Kadena AB). One must - stop in the area is Sam's Anchor Inn. The Kobe Steak is to die for & they have excellent tropical drinks. Also up north is the highest point on the island, Mt Omoto, a bit under 2000 ft. The views from there are stunning.

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Hi. Thanks for the suggestions but it seems you didn’t watch the video. Most of this video isn’t in Naha. We stayed in Naha for 4 nights but took a day trip around the island, a boat to Zamami island, and visited nearby neighbourhoods.

[@Niki90441]

Enjoyed the vlog and most of all your commentary

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Thanks for letting me know! Makes the effort more worth it! 😀

[@Animal.lover-]

Very nice video❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@FinanciallyFreeDeeTV]

what an amazing place🥰 so refreshing

[@halilozel1903]

Okinawa looks like a dreamy paradise! 🏝✨ Love the vibes and energy of this vlog-can’t wait to visit someday! 🌸😍 Fyi.

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Thanks and welcome to the channel!

[@halilozel1903]

@@SuitcaseMonkey Cheers! I love Japan and contents. Fyi.

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Good to know. I have a playlist of 11 Japan video vlogs and guide. Our next two videos in Jan and Feb will also be Japan too…

[@christianheld9720]

That Prime energy drink comparison and Ass Chicken had me on the floor. As usual a gem. Thank you

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Hehe 😜

[@angielinton7417]

We love your videos and would like to see any of Germany if you have some, or some plans to travel there. 😊

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Thanks. I haven’t actually been but it’s definitely on the list!

[@kenki808]

Thanks for the video. I love how sharp it is. What kind of camera are you using?

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Thanks. Everything on this channel is iPhone. This was a 15 Pro.

[@kenki808]

@ Nice!

[@tzitzisanchez2049]

Agreed with the other comments here. So well done, informative, visually beautiful and with that special sprinkle of (mostly) British wit, which was probably invented in the US but let's not duel on that. Now how do you spell duelling/dueling again ?

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Thank you. Haha. Mostly British?! ALL British my friend 😜

[@untitled9229]

I'm going to Okinawa next week so thanks for the recommendations! I'm only going for a day and a half though so it'll be tricky to figure out how best to spend my time... 🤔

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Haha. You’ll love it. I think you can just stick to the classics. Walking around the main high street and neighbouring areas. Maybe the castle also. All good

[@CynthiaLeaf]

Great video. I just returned from Okinawa, beautiful place

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Oh cool! Any highlights?

[@CynthiaLeaf]

@ Glass blowing was super fun!

[@KillerTacos54]

Fantastic video!!

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Thank you my friend!

[@ChrisSmith-ls7mb]

Excellent video. Is it English or American not sure which came first. LOL We use the King's English in Canada. Really enjoying the Japanese videos we are discussing going there are selfs. Did you visit the Blue lagoon in Iceland as I see in the news its parking lot has been consumed by lava. Thanks take care Chris and Sandra of Canada.

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Hey haha. I show our Blue Lagoon time during the first 3 minutes of the Iceland tips video. Always fun.

[@levistoys]

Just found your channel tonight when looking for Lapland info. Great channel. Could listen to your voice all day. Perfect amount of details and just enjoyable. Would you think Japan is safe to travel with a mom and 4 young children? Thanks

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Hi welcome. Thank you. Yes definitely

[@levistoys]

@ thanks great to know 🤩 now just to decide which itinerary of yours to choose😝

[@saar_natchen]

Great video, thanks🤗Which is the robot restaurant at the end?

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Hi there. Thank you. I can’t remember the name off hand but it’s linked in the description.

[@alisahietamies4467]

Which month was this ? Thinking if its worth to go during winter months

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

This was mid/late Jan. Winter is a great time to visit

[@josefinapdc1462]

Whats the weather like in end of march?

Super good

Thanks for watching

[@khadijaazoud-q8c]

i would love to know the cost ! the pdf is very helpful

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Thanks. I believe I put most costs in the video? Apart from food? Or am I missing something?

[@frankerck]

Invented English, you're welcome!

[@paulsandford3345]

What happens, if you don't eat fish or shellfish, is there still good alternatives?

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

There’s everything there 😀

[@shellyvick6300]

I'm laughing. We usually have to select the British flag for English... But we do have a few "Americanisms."

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

lol. Yes but you still speak English. Ok, I’m out 🤪

Press American Flag for English because they... invented.... English. LOL Thanks
