I couldn't have asked for a better person to explore Chiba with ❤️ And the samurai walk was EVERYTHING!!! Not trying to pick favourites but .... ;)

[@SamInTokyoo]

But we looked BADASS 💃❤️ can’t wait to go on a trip together again!

[@user-eo1mt1dg8r]

i’m studying English from you and comments of your subscribers. I am able to learn interesting words never taught in textbooks. BADASS？looked it up, it means awesome,right? and imao and so on. I remembered I learned “holy shit” from you many days ago, forexample. good teacher for me. Thank you.

130 year old fish restaurant "Yes, uhm, please serve us meat" I'm sorry, but that got me absolutely cracking XD

[@SamInTokyoo]

I know right lmaooooo we didn’t know anything before going, they just asked us our preferences 😂

[@LayersOfJenn]

Baka Gaming its bc of me 😭🙃 I don’t eat fish 💀

[@edrinkalema1114]

Watching live from Japan 🇯🇵 🇺🇬👍🙏🙏❤️

[@SparkyDevries]

This video reminds me of the "normal days" before the craziness of the world today. Excellent video. Thank you

[@SamInTokyoo]

I miss the normal days...

[@TT-zd6nr]

Thanks for posting this. We really appreciated your upbeat video during English lockdown. It lifted our spirits as well as our wine glasses :)

[@SamInTokyoo]

Cheers! Let’s hope it won’t last much longer!

[@MrFreezook]

The Samurai part is the part I like the most , I actually clicked to watch this video again after long forgotten, then I was Shocked with the 1st visit LOL

[@StMyles]

I loved this thanks for sharing this adventure. On day I hope to visit the lands of my grandfather’s.

[@vivyella6027]

How cool! Great suggestions :) Would be absolutely lovely to go there since there are no huge crowds. The overall atmosphere seems way more relaxed.

[@Japomania]

Wonderful video! Can't wait to visit Chiba.

[@TheHayashiLifeJapan]

I really want to do that Samurai walk. It looks like so much fun!!

[@patbauer]

Nice video, thanks for the tip: Narita city will be on my next trip itinerary !

[@francoisdelport4598]

Just finished watching now, also watched Jen video loving ur and Jen videos🌸💗

[@SamInTokyoo]

Thank you!!!

[@smilesalot2u]

Thanks for the escape and the video.

[@TokyoPaul]

Cool area

[@Catwoman1464]

Great video! Didn't know about those hidden gems in Chiba, I was in Kawagoe and Kamakura, which had a historic atmosphere as well but were crowded with tourists, little Edo looks like a good spot for a relaxing day trip

[@SamInTokyoo]

It was sooo nice there!

[@japanesesmiles8515]

Fantastic video😊🇯🇵🌸

[@chestnutfieldmas7490]

I am glad that you have come back here. you looked so sound. now it is a hard time for us due to Covid 19.I hope it will be over soonest.

[@beczillavlogs]

I just watched Jenn's video of your Chiba adventure, and thought I'd pop over to your channel to watch yours 😊 Hello from a new subscriber!

[@oddeyes9413]

Writing a book where one of the main characters is from Sosa City in Chiba. This video is really helpful.

[@sdafkjwkop]

Damn I'm inspired to learn Japanese again. N5 today.. Japan in a year!

[@Furiouss38]

[@SamInTokyoo]

Thanks!

[@mauricionavarro8224]

amazing places!! i wish to be there (not now xD) but some day PD: You are so cute.

[@jwrappuhn71]

Great vid Sam, that place looked pretty cool, I love the architecture of the old style, there is some shopping center, it's very near the Narita airport , I've seen vids on, people walking shopping at night, do you have any idea of what I'm talking about? Thanks.

[@SamInTokyoo]

Haven’t been!

[@EnigmaDave]

It so nice when we can see the IG posts from this trip, then later watch as each of you post your videos on the same day. It was fun to see the scenes you were shooting in Jenn's video showing up in this one. I can't wait for the return of sponsored inaka trips once it's safe to do them again. I'll never be able to travel to Japan, so videos like this are a treat.

[@LayersOfJenn]

we gad a blast :)

[@samlove6187]

Great video! @06:50 I love your necklace! What is it?

[@koikoijapan7877]

Narita is a countryside but there are a lot of places to visit

[@misteree78]

Looks like you just stayed in the North. There's more to Chiba in the South. You should visit Mt Nokogiriyama or Tateyama Jo. The beaches near Onjuku are nice too.

[@angrybird29]

Beautiful video, makes me want to be in japan right now! I had a question about your mentioning that the sora no yu hot springs, that they allow for tattoos? is that a distinction other establishments make in japan? whats is the societal premise behind the tattoo?

[@SamInTokyoo]

Most hot springs do not allow tattoos as this is a means to keep yakuza from coming to the bath houses. Now that more and more foreign tourists visit japan, more and more hot springs are starting to allow tattoos :)

[@TheDeathMongrel]

Every girl needs a pair of swords and a samurai outfit. Thanks for the trip through Chiba.

[@kendarudesu]

Next time I go to japan I’ll check out some of Chiba’s recommendations 😍😍 it all looks so wonderful~ “so yeah...it is a dick” was my favorite part Hahahaha

[@RoyandAimee]

We can't wait until the virus situation gets better, and we can once again go to places like this! Just asking out of curiosity, if you didn't have a personal driver, would you recommend hiring your own car for a place like this? Or rely on public transport? Thanks for sharing Sam :)

[@SamInTokyoo]

Everything can be reached by public transportation but if you have the option to rent a car for a day or two, it would definitely make it easier!

[@aminlakzian]

Subarashi!

[@yourgudbudnel]

The country side feels soo soothing. Far from the hush of the city. Also, I'd like to ask, is it possible for a foreigner to become a school teacher? What are the requirements apart from N1/N2 and degree? :)

[@SamInTokyoo]

Sorry I’m not a teacher sooo no idea :)

[@yourgudbudnel]

@@SamInTokyoo Thanks none the less! :)

[@mrsoikawa]

you need a beating pulse

[@zubaerchaudhari8267]

Hi

[@stevekjr9563]

Great video! Neat to see such interesting and different places from the West. The Samurai Walk looked like a lot of fun, while the Fertility Shrine looked very unique. At the Fertility Shrine, was everyone quietly giggling to themselves the entire time?

[@SamInTokyoo]

More like loudly giggling!

[@user-rb9ju1qu9f]

着物姿が美し過ぎる。

[@Unmei_Ka]

3:06 It focused on fertility, huh? I wonder how they go about doing that. Hahahaha!!! XD 7:11 That really does look like the shopping street on the way up to Kiyomizu-dera. I'd definitely like to go to the samurai place. I practice iaido, so I would really appreciate going to a place like that. The hot springs are a must, naturally. Alcohol is my friend, so the sake tour would be amazing. Shopping in that city looks like it would be fun, so going there would be very worth it. It looks like you had a lot of fun! Thanks for sharing it with us! :)

[@ad.6472]

Sam is very stylish and has beautiful eyes :-).

[@user-yi9ek1mk7d]

武士が居た😎

[@user-kd3vy2xx1v]

面白かった　ところで大鷲神社の「おみやげ」は今どうなっていますか？

[@SamInTokyoo]

まだ使わなかったww

[@user-kd3vy2xx1v]

おはよう　「まだ使わなかった」？？is it a stuff to use? i suppose it to be ensfrined. by the way , you speak japanese naturally. you've got improved a lot. You're a challenging person.

[@J159_]

I know I'm a weeaboo loser BUT YOU LOOK SO COOL IN THE SAMURAI OUTFIT, SAMMY-SENPAI !!! KAKKOI !!! >_< !!!

[@rhythmandacoustics]

That fertility thing really got her attention !!! Check out that smile!

[@mPDC-gh8jy]
