I was there about 40 years ago... 😆 Thank you, pepo!

[@santiagobenites]

Hi Tomoko. I've greatly enjoyed this walk of the neighborhood where you lived when you were young. I can't believe how you remember so many details about everything, but it doesn't surprise me. A healthy lifestyle and a healthy diet helps to maintain a healthy brain, and you are the yoga master! Thanks for sharing. Someday I will visit your beautiful country 🙏😁

[@tomokotomoko]

Hi, santiago! 😊 I remember that old things. But I forgot what I ate 3 days ago. 😂　I'm greatful that I can go back there. Thank you for watching the long video!

Shinjuku founded in 1634 in the Tokugawa Period!

[@tomokotomoko]

Wow! About 400 years ago! 😳 I was living in Shinjuku ward 40 years ago...😁 Thank you, Greg!

[@Mark_Maguire]

Very enjoyable video. You must have been about 5 years old when you lived there 40 years ago. 😉

[@tomokotomoko]

Oh! Mark! 😆 My University days... Oh, reveal my age! 🤭 Thank you for watching a long video!

[@mistersmith158]

konnichiwa Tomoko. I loved this walking video. We got some memories of your life too. I can almost picture a young college girl Tomoko taking on the big city of Tokyo. I liked your outfit; very cute top. Who would not want to walk with Tomoko. That would be fun! We should call these virtual dates with Tomoko. Some of your fans could watch this while walking on a treadmill. I love that you can get around Japan without a car. That vending machine guy was very nice to not make you wait. That crepe sounds tempting too. I hope your mother is doing well Tomoko. I look forward to your next video short or long. Argato as always from America.

[@tomokotomoko]

Hi, Michael! 😊 Watching a long video while walking on a treadmill! That's a great idea! 😃 Thank you, Michael! College girl Tomoko was about 40 years ago... 😆 Mom is well. 👍 I'll make Shorts with her!

[@davidgarry400]

Very cool trip back to an earlier part of your life. I was a little surprised by the graffiti next to the market. I think it's the first time in any video you've done that I've seen any. Here in NYC it's all too common. Thanks for taking us along Tomoko!

[@tomokotomoko]

The graffiti is not common in Japan. Good eyes, Dave! 😊 Thank you for watching the long video! 😊

[@DEtchells]

I was studying Japanese in Takadanobaba years ago, so this is nostalgic for me too. I remember the place around the station and school well. Was hoping you'd walk past the school, it was straight coming out of the station. Choco banana yeees. 13:05 Haha. But damn, weird and lucky.

[@tomokotomoko]

Oh, You were there! I remember there are still some special schools. Takadanobaba is called 'gakusei no machi'. gakusei = students Thank you for watching, Nekotaku! 😊
