FAQ:
Where are you from? Are you Japanese?
- I am Swedish.
For how long have you lived in Japan?
- I came to Japan in 2008.
Why did you move to Japan?
- I was interested in Japan since I was a child, largely thanks to growing up playing a lot of (Japanese) videogames as well as a brief interest in anime during my teenage years. When I finally came here for the first time I felt that it was a really nice and interesting country, and I decided to do what I could to move here permanently.
How did you get a visa to Japan?
- It's complicated and my case is quite different from most, as I've always been self-employed. But basically, as long as you can show the immigration authorities that you have a stable income, there's usually a way. Personally, I was here on journalist visas until a few years ago when I got married. Now I have a spouse visa.
Do you work in Japan?
- Yes, I'm a photographer. Currently, most of my work is related to tourism and travel in Japan, but I also do portrait photography as well as documentary work. I used to write news stories and articles about Japan as well, mostly for newspapers in Sweden, but for the last 3-4 years, my work has been almost exclusively about photography. Sometimes I appear on TV too.
What camera do you use?
- My live walks are recorded with my phone, a Oneplus 8 Pro, mounted on a DJI OM4 Gimbal. For my "real work", I mostly use a Nikon Z7, but I also have a Z6, Fujifilm X-T3, Leica Q and Ricoh GR III that comes with me from time to time.
What advice would you give to someone wanting to move to Japan?
- Study, learn a skill that's in demand in Japan. There are plenty of available jobs here. Some knowledge of the Japanese language would also help a lot, not just to get you a job, but also so that you can actually enjoy life while living here as well.
How did you learn Japanese?
- I went to language school in Tokyo for one year in 2010-2011. After that, I've also taken some online courses and studied on my own.
How many languages do you speak?
- Swedish, English and Japanese reasonably well, and also a bit of German, as I lived there before coming to Japan.
Will you make bicycle videos?
- No. Streaming and interacting with my viewers while riding a bike would be too dangerous.
Can you show your face?
- I prefer to keep a bit of privacy here on KZbin, at least for the time being. I do streams exclusive to my Patreon followers from time to time where I show my face though, so if you are really eager to see what I look like, and if you want to support the channel as well, you should consider joining me there. / tokyoexplorer

[@yusukenomura5637]

ああ。新緑の高尾山が美しい。

[@pilotgrrl1]

Looking forward to capping off my workday by watching this walk on beautiful Mt Takao! I can definitely use some beautiful nature and scenery. Thanks as always Tokyo Explorer, I appreciate your walks!

[@SumoCurtain]

Very beautiful. I definitely will want to go there if I get to travel to Japan again. Thanks for sharing your trip. 🙂

[@momentsbyshubha]

[@TheNatasha66]

1:14:32 What a view!

[@spaghettimeatballswow]

Yet another masterpiece, beautiful and scenic countryside hike.

[@Elonquin]

This place looks better than I remember. Making a mental note of visiting this whenever it is possible again.

[@andrewcrofts6551]

Great video, really brightened up my day being able to watch this while working. I took this route back down when I was there about 2 years ago, I went for a challenge and took trail 6 going up. It's worth taking trail 6 if you get chance, you get a nice view of the waterfall and there is a really nice little shrine about halfway up (just bring waterproof shoes, towards the top you actually walk up the river bed for a bit). Can't wait until it's safe to go back and I can do the Mt Takao-Mt Jinba trail.

[@Zero1979]

Such beautiful scenery, thanks for sharing this relaxing walk with us! Arigatou gozaimasu 🙏🏻😊

[@gioru6275]

48:11 Those are donater's name like torii gate's one. Intersting part of this one is they dedicated cedar saplings originally. Nowadays it's not a sapling but a money, but donations are used for forest maintenance. 奉納(dedication) 杉苗(cedar sapling)

[@urcurcurcurc]

Did a that walk two years ago it was raining all day but still such a beautiful trip

[@tsumugipilled]

gorgeous scenery, thanks for the stream!!

[@jarihult]

Nice premiere , even though at the time i write this even has ended 👍!!!Arigato !!!

[@Jasiwardas]

Tech question: What was going on with the Audio?

[@Jasiwardas]

Did you put a wind muff on that has the glue cover the mic hole? Wind muffs schould have only a ring of glue so that only the fur basically covers the mic hole and the rest around is close.

[@TokyoExplorer]

The mic is just not good at picking up things behind my camera (like my voice). Or was there any other issues?

[@chrissabo2258]

Eating to the camera part grossed me out 🤢
