Why do I keep doing this?! Fujinomiya, Japan

[@catclontz]

I want to get my name stamp now. That was so lovely and fascinating! You make every single place you go interesting (even on rainy, foggy days) and I appreciate that. Thank you!

[@CurrentlyHannah]

Thanks so much Catherine!

[@LanaFeyah]

I have never related to a vlogger more than when you said how, amidst the beauty and tranquillity of Japanese gardens, your eyes will always be drawn by the ducks. And that was definitely a 10/10 rond boi.

[@CurrentlyHannah]

So round. So proud

[@quinnkananack1848]

I'm glad you still went! I kind of like seeing popular tourist locations with unideal weather - You get to see a slice of the scene that no one really does/seeks out.

[@CurrentlyHannah]

Yeah it forces you to take a look of things from a different perspective.

[@EnigmaDave]

On those days you cannot see, That lovely sight, Mt. Fuji. There's no need to cry, Or fret about why. There's always a great plan "B".

[@kiwdwks]

You not only live life to it's fullest but also totally enjoy and appreciate the moments! Thanks for always taking us along...

[@linnyunt]

Gorgeous visuals as usual. And showing how you can still enjoy My Fuji in inclement weather was really helpful.

[@itsnighohme]

That little "Life is weird." was so wholesome!

[@ElderNewt]

Always peaceful n relaxing watching your videos

[@vformarallo]

You make everything look fantastic, every video i get more excited to visit Japan. Thanks for your work Hannah :)

[@glennstevenson3156]

Loved your video. You have a real talent for getting the best view of whatever your doing or wherever you are.

[@fydela7190]

Enjoy your vlogs and in particular, the drone shots (9:30 and etc.). Your explanations and intro to the cultures are much appreciated. Thank you!

[@sandiptoghosh6126]

All of your videos are literally Escape from the Life. Love what u present , love what you do , and You are Totemo Kawai ❤️

[@jamesmunro8804]

A friend and I climbed Fuji-san in the late fall of 1975. we brought a tent and sleeping bags and camped overnight on the top. The weather closed in and we couldn’t see anything, including the path down, so we ended up coming down the “back side” - no path, no people, but the clouds were so thick you could literally let them land your your arm like a falcon. It is an experience I still treasure.

[@toshinaka1309]

多くの資料（歴史・文化・民族）研究に基づく緻密な分析で「日本の今」を見るHannahさんの動画を観るのは本当に楽しいです。日本人であることによる呪縛（拘束性）として、逃れることの出来ない一面的な見方とは全く違う別の側面の捉え方が、私にはとても新鮮に映ります。

[@Gantorin]

I know too many comments, but your video work is SO beautiful, and the content is AMAZING! Just like Tokyo Lens... So glad I found your channel. With Cystic Fibrosis... will I live long enough to see Japan again? not sure, but I will surely try. Times right now are not right, but I have lived life in the face of advercity, and will do it for years to come. I hope to help spread the beauty of that country to my friends. Such an amazing place.

[@CurrentlyHannah]

I agree now isn’t the best time but I hope you’ll get the chance to visit one day!

[@Gantorin]

@@CurrentlyHannah visit again... I maybe on barrowed time, but I will milk the crap out of it.

[@Briannal884]

So awesome seeing this video after having followed you for a few months now! I live super close to this area and have been to a lot of these places, so cool to see it on your channel. I’m sad you didn’t get to see Mt. Fuji, I see her most days!! Edit: just watched more of the video and that fruit shop is so incredibly close to where I live! So so cool.

[@MarcelWestermaierTsamsiyu1]

This is my first video of your channel. But I have to say: I have rarely heard such a well balanced audio mix in a KZbin video. I am just speechless. Keep up the good work

[@CurrentlyHannah]

Well thank you! 🥰

[@HeyMelani]

I'm so in love with your channel!! I don't know why I didn't find you earlier 😩 Your videos are so heartwarming and so so sooooo BEAUTIFUL to watch! 😍🥰 you're an amazing creator! Much love from Italy!

[@mystorymedias5094]

The view from the bridge is awesome. And the clouds...magical!

[@JapanLovers]

Nice places Hannah thank you. Shiraito Falls is also amazing if you're in the area

[@afijohanutama3185]

So beautiful yet so calming

[@emalinel]

Wow....I am continuously amazed by Japan's detailed craftsmanship. I really enjoyed the part about making your hanko. I wish I could make my own there one day :)

[@daisukehoshino202]

Thank you for visiting and showing my hometown! As a local, now I find my neighborhood more attractive than before.

[@mikesweney2404]

This brings back a lot of nice memories. I climbed Mt. Fuji twice and I miss being in it's shadow.

[@maconhoth1005]

The Veggie restaurant had a hungry caterpillar picture on the wall! So cool.

[@CurrentlyHannah]

Oh I didn’t notice that before! Haha

[@Gantorin]

I love toori gates, so beautiful... all of them. I knew of the bow and how/where to walk through, but at the enterence of Mejei I did a video pan as I walked through the center... So no judgement from me.

[@CandycaneBeyond]

Tere are no BAD spots in Japan. Thanks for sharing another one

[@OllamhDrab]

Heehee, nothing like a bungee jumping video on a rainy, foggy day, oh, my joints. :) Also that looks like a really cool hanko place. I realize my own name could be something of a challenge to do up in kanji. :)

[@jmessick8163]

☔️After living in a high mountain valley desert where it snows more than it ever rains, I think rain is just as magical as snow. ❄️✨

[@patrickstruik4318]

Brilliant scenery (Mt Fuji) and music (awesome!) ...👍🇦🇺

[@elful]

Great rainy video. Loved the shots

[@emilykm]

your editing just keeps getting better! every time I watch your videos I want to go back to Japan

[@gdore15]

I've been to Hakone and Kawaguchiko for a 3 day trip, there was thick fog the first day, even worst than what you had, second was cloudy and no mountain. In the morning of the third day it was visible through the cloud and only a good view in the afternoon. It's really a shy mountain. Also, there is different words used to say "shrine" inside of shrine names, most would have the one of the kanji of jinja (神社), for example taisha 大社 or jingu 神宮

[@suntzu4607]

I was there from December 2019 till March 2020 (had to go home because of the virus.) It's a nice and quiet place. A lot of parks to relax in, restaurants everywhere, and of course, waking up everyday and seeing Mt. Fuji up close. I'm in Aeon whenever I got bored doing some shopping and starbucks and Big day when buying groceries. That temple she went in during sunny days have lots of ducks and pigeons that my niece loves to scare away. You should've went and see Shiraito Falls, those stairs will be the death of me, and also Lake Tanuki, a nice place for taking a walk to relax.

[@1storymillionchapters36]

Saw your story on Artlist. Great piece. Beautiful story. Love your work :)

[@kathygottardo3770]

You are both so brave to attempt that bungy jump...........I could never ever contemplate this experience, I am such a “scaredy-cat” . Well done Hannah and Anna 🌸🌸

[@MickeyGooner]

This video flew by fast and that’s a good thing, Hannah. High quality from you once again.

[@Jindujun]

Your trips are always so authentic and raw, its always a pleasure to join you on your adventures. Keep doing you Hannah

[@SunfireGTX25]

Having the personalized stamp is really cool! I will definitely get that done when I visit next year.

[@Lisa-gq7qh]

3:14 I lost it😂 “It’s so cloudy now, you can’t see anything!”... “ah” 👓🌫 What a wonderful video!! Fujinomiya is such a beautiful city, even without the sight of Mt. Fuji!

[@benec5816]

you put so much into thse presentations they are great so informative and such fantastic views I used to love going out in the rain in the tropics just had a freshness stay safe oh what was that bugger thing you were eating see ya and thanks

[@seandesmond5560]

Beautiful video as always lovely Hannah!!! ❤ Such epic views from the bridge you bungee jumped off!!! I would not have jumped!

[@stephen129]

Love the opening shots as always. I like how the restaurant had a picture of The Very Hungry Caterpillar on the Wall (aka the greatest book ever written). Also, dunno if you noticed, but you had a few spots on your lens.

[@antti-jussikemppainen305]

Not denying the awesomeness of the view that is Mt Fuji but the foggy and rainy weather is just absolutely lovely! The drone shot to the clouds from the bridge! Just 👌 I wish you had showed us the PERFECT DUCK in more detail!😁

[@japaneseyamakun1595]

I think your smile makes people happy.

Love this production, fantastic cuts, love the music selection. Fantastic quality very enjoyable.

[@travelphotos7662]

Beautiful video - even more so with the romantic vision in the clouds (at the cost of not seeing Mt Fuji).

[@CurrentlyHannah]

Makes things look quite moody right?

[@travelphotos7662]

[@LaurensTravels]

The people in Japan seem so lovely. That fruit store is something I dream of going to one day! And the stamp was such a unique experience too. Wonderful video even sans Fuji 👏🏻

[@朝倉雄介]

Why did you use a French word "sans" instead of WITHOUT? / sans = without / Am I wrong?

[@Forbeszy1]

Awww, these seem so fun! Specially Hanko making. It's something practical too ^_^

[@kachiiiing]

Was in kawaguchiko last Oct. The weather was like what you went through in your video. Now, to aim for Fujinomiya and Fuji-san again when all is well

[@Fadewatcher]

While being in the bullet train, I was watching a video about Mt. Fuji. That most tourist never see it. But when I stepped out of the train, I could see the whole mountain. A typhoon had hit Japan while I was traveling and because of the typhoon, all the snow and clouds were gone! It was awesome to see! Next day I rented a bike and headed towards a good vantage point to get a good look at Mt. Fuji, still got it as my wallpaper!

[@K1rmcc]

Your bungee jumping, Was the first thing that gave me A reason to smile today, It’s not been a good day. Thank You Hannah

btw have you ever tried to using shutter speed priority on your A7iii? You can still get the cinematic 24fps/48 shutter speeds but dont have to worry about over exposures which is easy to do in manual mode as the A7iii doesn't have a flip screen

Hello ! Next year, I'm thinking about doing a gap year in Japan (Tokyo) for around 5 months to learn Japanese. I will be in a school ( lsl language school) and will live with a family. I don't know anybody who has already lived in Japan and I was wondering if anyone had advices or even if you think it's a good idea (or not). Once I inscrive myself I will have to stay for 5 months ( I can't go home if I don't like it) so I'm a bit nervous about that. I'm also wondering if maybe my expectations are too high..anyway if anyone could answer thanks a lot !! 🤗
