Throughout the entire video, did you notice that you are always smiling or laughing? Throughout the entire video, do you see the gleeful sparkles in you eyes? When you get off the train, did you notice you look like a happy kid in a candy store? And, with your friend, you were a kid in a candy store while eating the mochi and chocolate. Welcome to your new life, Phoebe. One in which you smile, laugh and sparkle again. Can’t wait to share in your Japan adventures (previews of which we may have gotten in IG!). Hoping Japan is the first chapter of your new, amazing, fulfilling, and rewarding phase of life.
Oh my gosh, Robert... thank you so much. You've no idea how much this comment meant to me :) I'm definitely learning to feel comfortable in the joy again and trust that everything will be okay. This whole trip for me was just so much fun - I think you're gonna see a LOT of sparkle :) Thank you so much P xx
日本へようこそ🇯🇵
沢山の国がある中、日本を旅先に選んでくれてありがとうございます😊
日本の文化、歴史、食事、風情を楽しんで下さいね‼︎
日本をもっと好きになってくれたら嬉しいです✨
沢山の思い出を作って下さいね！良い旅になります様に！
Thank you so very much 😍🙏🏼 I adore Japan!
Your magic and confidence are coming back. Brilliant.
They really are huh!! I felt like they were just coming back after the break up and then all this other family stuff happened and it left again… but this trip… this trip has got me back on track 🥰 travel always gives me what I need!
I also noticed how relaxed and happy you appear. Maybe a change is what you most needed and did not know it. I look forward to your adventures in Japan. Go get 'em.
That’s such a good point! I really am more relaxed 😳🥰
Glad you seem a little happier
Day by day 😊
Hey Phoebe , you couldn't have picked a better place to recharge. It's so nice to see you having fun again. Shed the past and bring in the new.🙏 Enjoy Japan , Harriet and I have been many
times. And yes, we love our Mochi , Be Well . Stay Healthy Dear Friend ! We Love you Dearly ❤❤❤ Harriet, Jim and Yuki. Richmond, Va.
Mochi is soooo good! Thank you so much :) Totally agree, Japan is the perfect spot to go and have a really fun adventure and enjoy the new! P x
Hiya! How are you doing? Impulsively buying flight tickets, that’s how I get to London to often! Seat anxiety, didn’t know about that as a term, but I might have the same. I need to have the window seat, always! Japan is an amazing destination, it’s the best Asian country I’ve been to, and the Japanese people always were so kind. What’s your Japanese toilet experience? I think we need them in Europe too! The Japanese sweets are so good, after my Tokyo trip I subscribed to Tokyotreat and got a box of Japanese food every month, but I quit it due to my allergies, and there was too much stuff I can’t eat in there. Hello James, welcome to Phoebe’s channel. Thanks for sharing and I’m happy to see your smile again. Have an amazing week ahead 🤙
oh my gosh the toilets hahaha every single toilet I saw in Japan was pristine and modern, it's amazing! Sometimes all those buttons are a little overwhelming, I won't lie :) Ahhh yes, of course, you're gluten free, right? I can imagine that would be a tough one when it comes to sweets boxes like that. Thanks for giving James such a lovely welcome - it was so good having a friend to travel with and one that's a UA-camr too! Just makes the whole filming/photography process so much more fun :D
Yay! The world is happy to have you back out and travelling again ☺
Thanks Lizzie ♥️ I’m feeling so much happier! Travel for the win (again) haha it always gives me what I need 🥰
@@travelforphoebe I feel you! Have fun out there 🫶
New life new beginning it’s nice to see 🙏
Thank you 🥰 so happy to be travelling again!
Very interesting video.. I really enjoyed and always follow your videos..
Thank you so so much :)
Glad seemed like your back to your former self. Enjoy!!!❤
Yesss! Starting to feel that little buzz of pure joy coming back each day :)
Great to see you enjoying yourself Phoebe.I am looking forward to watching your adventures in Japan.
Thank you so much Kevin :) I've got so many great videos coming your way!
日本来てくれてありがとうございます😊
Thank you so much 🥰 I LOVE Japan!
I'm so jealous. I need the daily vlogs!!!!
😂🙏🏼
Great to see you back on the road!
Thank you!! It's SO good to be on the road again :)
Congrats on your New life, love to see that smile on your Face.
Thank you soooo much 🥰
I could honestly say I’m looking forward to sharing your new adventures with lots of laughter ow eating to lol 🙏
Hahaha so much fooooood! 🥰
Welcome to Japan! It's a great time to be here. Recently, more and more people have started taking off their masks, and the requirement to wear masks in various shops has been lifted. This makes traveling much easier and more enjoyable.
Thank you for the lovely welcome :) So happy to be back in Japan!
We need to get your subscribers up over 100,000.
We’re sooooo close! 🥰 I’ve got so many great travel videos coming up I’m sure we’ll get there in no time ♥️😎
So happy to see you back traveling again and seeing you in good spirits. I’m looking to visit Japan later this year in their winter.
Thank you 🥰 oh perfect! You’ll have lots of stuff to add to your itinerary after all the videos I’ve got coming haha
@@travelforphoebe I’ll be tuning in 😃
Welcome to Japan! The mochi ice cream is called 雪見だいふく (yukimi-daifuku), and the one you ate has a mitarashi sauce in it. Mitarashi sauce is made of sugar, soy sauce, water and potato starch. It's usually used on dango, a savory snack with mochi like texture. I need to recommend you the たけのこの里 (takenoko-no-sato) for the chocolate snack. It's like a rivalry snack of きのこの山 (kinoko-no-yama) that you ate. They are both released from same company, but there are tons of fans for each product, and disputes happen a lot between those fans. I like the cookie part of たけのこの里, and hope you like it too!
Just commenting to say I'm on team たけのこの里 . I'll go buy some when I go to Japan later this year because it's too expensive here in Australia (about $5-6 for a box the same size as in the video 🥲)
@@evelyn1805 Great! Hope you have lots of fun when you come. Just don't buy them at convenient stores, cause they cost more. Buy them at super markets and drug stores😊
@@onsendeyukkurishitai Thanks! I'm staying near Ueno station so someone recommended I visit Niki no Kashi. My suitcase is going to be overflowing with snacks 😅
It's so funny when you said 14 degrees is freezing! 😅 That's t-shirts and shorts for me here in the northern part of the world. But glad to see you're back traveling the world again.
oh gosh haha yesss for me that's pretty chilly! I love the heat :) Thank you, I'm so happy to be travelling again. Feels like I'm finding my way in this new season of my life :)
めっちゃきれい！
🥹♥️🙌🏻🌸
yaaas, so glad we're seeing that smile on your face again Phoebe. Welcome James and l look forward to following your beautiful journey together :)
🥰🙏🏼🌙 thank you so much ☺️ It feels amazing to start to feel that sparkly energy coming back to me. Don’t you gettin too attached to James now! After this Japan series you’re stuck with me again 😂😉
Hope you are happy and well behind the camera as well. Best wishes!
That's such a sweet comment, thank you - I really appreciate the genuine care :) I'm feeling so good at the moment! Just finding my way back to my happiness and learning to let my guard down and trust that everything will be okay!
This is so awesome! I’m am so happy for you ❤ can’t wait to follow along on your Japan adventure. You deserve to have the best time…enjoy xx
Thank you sooooo much 🥰🥰🥰 it feels amazing to be travelling again!
I am so happy you're glad again, good job
Thank you, me too :)
Ohhh I’m so happy for you! Good to see you sparkle again. Enjoy Japan, and I’m looking forward to the rest of the series 😍
The sparkle is BACK :D sooooo happy to be travelling again! Thank you for the support love, I've got so many fun videos coming your way! P x
Keen to see this and also hear a budget for the trip if you’ll share as I’m looking into going for the first time this year
Thank you so much, Dylan! I don't really share budgets as it's not something I keep a track of, hope that's okay :) So glad you're visiting Japan for the first time this year! You're going to LOVE it (and have a loooong list of stuff to do after all the episodes I've got coming for you!) P x
So happy to see you sparkling again Phoebe and with a “partner in crime”! 😊
Welcome James…should be a good time seeing what you guys get up to! ❤
Thank you so much Ingrid!! Yesss it’s so nice travelling with another UA-camr 😄 my poor family get sick of me running off to set up shots all the time 😂
I´m so happy to see you happy again. Looking forward to your adventure with youtube-james! Takae care from granny Mia 🧡
Thank you so much Granny Mia! It's so fun travelling with another travel UA-camr - great to have someone to creatively bounce off (and who doesn't mind when a camera pops up haha). Thank you x
@@travelforphoebe 🧡😄
雪見だいふくは40年前からありますが、最近はいろんなバージョンがあるんですね。
"Yukimi Daifuku" has been around for 40 years, but there are various versions these days.
It’s so good!! ♥️♥️♥️
I am so happy for you Phoebe. Back on the road and you seem to have that spark again. 😊. Love that you’re smiling and laughing. Great start to your new series and very informative. I’ve been to Japan multiple times, last in 2014. I really need to go again. Such an amazing and exhilarating place and the people are awesome. I look forward to seeing it again through your eyes. Glad you have a friend to accompany you on this new adventure. I enjoy that you put these out once a week. Gives you time to create the video possible and always leave your community wanting more 😉
Thank you so much 🥰 I feel like Japan has really unlocked a whole new world of creativity for me. I’ve fallen back in love with the filming, editing and photography. Slowly finding my style/way of expression. It’s connecting me with the travel more! Which is amazing 🥰 Feels so good to feel so happy and sparkly again! I feel like I’ve got my purpose and my motivation back.
8:33 yukimidaifuku 雪見大福は日本で一番おいしい市販のアイスです。チョイスが良いですね！
Yukimi Daifuku is my favourite 🥰♥️
Great sparkle Phoebe. I have a number of trips booked - Hawaii, UK, Ireland and Europe over next 12 months so can’t wait to get my sparkle back 👍
Oh I LOVE that, Keith!! I'm so excited and happy for you :) Those trips sound amazing!!
@@travelforphoebe thanks Phoebe. Before that a quick 9 day trip to Perth. 25 days Hawaii/Cruise and then 80 days Europe/UK!! Bugger the the bank balance. 😂
That all sounds incredible 😍 I hear you! I’ve got some plans to put my savings to good use this year too 🥰
@@travelforphoebe Thanks Phoebe. Really look forward to hearing about them and watching your upcoming videos. Was in Japan many years ago. Loved every minute of it. 😘
It's so wonderful to see you back with your sparkle! Am so happy for you. Can't wait to follow your Japan adventures!
Thank you so much sweetheart :) The sparkle is BACK!!! It feels so good!
How exciting!! I'm glad to see you so happy
So good to see your sparkle and joy back again! I’m walking through a difficult season myself at the moment and it is going to require me shedding some stuff so I can step into a new life. I can’t wait for that feeling you were experiencing when you got off that train. I know it’s coming…I just need to get there. Looking forward to this series! I can’t wait to visit Japan one day.
I hear you, love. There was so much stress in the weeks before I left for this trip and even the morning I was going to the airport, it was like all of this stuff was trying to test me or keep me where I was. So glad I kept moving forward and pushed through it all to get to Japan. That feeling of realising it was all worth it and you're in the right place was so good. I know you'll get there too :)
Cannot wait for the rest of the vlogs! Perfect timing for me cuz I’m planning a trip to Tokyo for the end the month 😊
Oh my gosh yes that’s perfect!! The next two episodes will be ideal for you love ♥️
Very nice to see you back in full swing!! Goodluck and thanks for sharing great content.
Thank you so much :) Finally getting my sparkle back!
Thanks for this video. I am travelling to Japan next month. Great tips about the travel sim and klook. ❤😊
Oh perfect! I’ve got some great videos coming your way, you’ll be stocked with inspo 🥰♥️
Great to see you happy again, enjoy Japan great place
Thank you! I'm so happy to be travelling again and Japan is one my favourite spots so I'm pretty much doubly happy :)
Yay 👏👏excited to see you
Looking forward to this video 🎉🎉☺️

Thank you so much! 🥰🥰🥰
Happy for you beautiful- Tokyo in august and I can’t wait
🥰 you are gonna have the BEST time!!
Good for you, Phoebe! Japan is our happy place too and it is extra awesome and heartwarming during cherry blossom season 💖
Thank you so much, Emerald :) your comment was so sweet!
残念ながら、仰っている事がわかりませんですが。ドキュメンタリータッチの動画から、日本に来れた事の喜びが溢れていました。
私もその喜びに物凄く嬉しくなりました。良い旅であることを祈っています！GOOD!!
Great to see the 'new' you 🎉🎊🥳. This video is full of smiles and sparkles 🥰. A change is indeed as good as a holiday. My brother was there in Feb for 3 weeks and did Tokyo, Hakone, Nagano Alps, Kyoko and Hiroshima. He absolutely loved everything there, especially the people.
Oh wow your brother really went to some unique spots! I’d love to go a little further off the track and see some of the more unusual spots 🥰 thank you so much for the lovely message ♥️♥️♥️
Gurl I love this!! A fellow Queenslander in Japan. How I love it!! ❤️ Going next yr to Japan so honestly this video is much needed. Thank you 😊 🌞
Yessss 🥰♥️ I’m so happy you’re visiting love! You are going to have the BEST time 🥰😍 you’ll have soooo many recommendations by the time this series is done ♥️♥️♥️♥️
This is another great video. Keep them coning.
More to come!
Welcome to Japan :) I hope you enjoyed your stay there.
Thank youuuu :) I LOVED it!!!
Good to see you back on travel, i am sure you will have fun in Japan. You look fantastic and more relax now. 👍
Thank you so much 🥰🥰🥰
Oh, you are in Tokyo? I'm watching your videos from Japan (from the western part of Japan). Take care and enjoy your trip!
What are some must-visit spots in the western part of Japan??
So happy for you Phoebe to be out with a big smile on your face and it looks like you're definitely getting your sparkle back 😊😊.
With your positive energy and glass half full attitude, you make travelling anywhere fun 😃😃
Japan has been on my bucket list for a while, I love the culture and history of this oriental nation, and I'm a bit of history buff, so I definitely want to go and check out the older districts to see the Okiyas where the famous movie 'memoirs of a geisha' were filmed, as well as remnants from the ww2 period of history in Japan.
The Japanese people strike me as warm, hospitable but also very proud of their unique culture, and its great to see you've incorporated this in your other video series of Japan.
You're on a new journey now, Phoebe, and it's great to see you embracing that.
Travelling heals the soul, and I hope that as time goes on, your cultural, food and friendship experiences bring you more and more strength and happiness 😊😊😇
Oh I loved reading this comment 🥰 thank you so much for the love and kindness, it means so much to me!
Yes, you’re spot on! The Japanese are amazing hosts, such lovely people. Every time I was unsure of something or lost I’d just ask someone and they’d help. I find it such a welcoming, kind, happy place to travel and safe for women ♥️
I hope you get to visit one day very soon - you will LOVE it! One of my favourite countries on the planet!
Glad to see you back on another trip. I am sure it did a world of good for you
Thank you it really did! 😊
Welcome back ❤
So good to be back :D
@@travelforphoebe you can say that again. It's good to begin a Monday with your video drops. Again.

Welcome back to your second home!!
Thank you!! 😎✊🏻🌸
5:27 I love your reaction sooo much!!! This is gonna be me when I go in November 😁
🥰🙏🏼 YES IT IS!!
A beautiful video. Enjoy your trip. I love the airplane ride. Have a fantastic time in Tokyo, and happy Mother’s Day, and I love your accent.
Thank you so much!
Even without makeup you a stunner
This is my first time to watch your video also. Living in central Japan, native Japanese. Thanks so much for introducing our country. I'm pretty sure that Japan is so different. By the way as all of you guys know Tokyo is kind of very special like NYC in the US.
Hello! I am SO happy you found my channel 🥰 welcome!! Yessss Japan is amazing, one of my favourite places and Tokyo is so special 🥰 I’ll always visit again, I never feel like I get tired of it ♥️♥️♥️
oh Ye have had mitarashi dango flavoured yukimi daifuku ice cream which I have never had but I normally just have regular one :) It has been raining on and off today in Osaka and most of the Kansai region as well. cheers
Its so delicious!!! 🙏🏼😎
@@travelforphoebe I reckon it is 😋😄 I have been looking forward to seeing yer footages of Japan series especially as ye stayed in Osaka and Kyoto. My Aussie mate in Brisbane and his own family came here last December so we went to universal studios Japan too. well Donkey kong attractions will open next year so there will be more people coming here . cheers :)
Watching ❤🙏😂
Thank you :)
Yup, I think we will have the same exclamation about how happy we are! We leave at the end of this month for two weeks. So this video is very timely for us!
Oh 🥰🥰🥰 thank you so much! You’re gonna have a LOT of Japan inspo by the time im done with you 😂🙏🏼
Hi, I'm a Japanese living in the countryside of Japan (Kyushu), far away from Tokyo. I can understand your hype feeling. When I went to Tokyo, I also felt happy just walking down the street, and when I was walking around in a happy mood, passersby thought I was a crazy person Lol. I had been living a life in which walking the streets of Tokyo was a dream come true, but at that moment, I could no longer contain my heartbeat as I remembered that my imagination had finally become reality. So I can well imagine how you feel. Best of luck to you!🤞🌟
Yessss, Tokyo is a dream come true! It's so beautiful! The whole place is incredibly fun :) So glad you get it too!
It's so nice to see you happy. Wee queation - Is James from Norther Ireland?
He sure is! He lives in Sydney now but he's originally from Belfast :)
@@travelforphoebe Brilliant! I love hearing our accent abroad. We get everywhere! 😁
Phoebe, lifes so darn short to be unhappy, enjoy the happy moments as much as you can, you deserve it.
Thank you SO much :)
Big in Japan - if you liked it Taiwan and South Korea are worth a visit
ooooh! I did go to Seoul once but I don't think I had enough time to really click with it - I'd like to go back and do it again with a different itinerary and see if I can connect better :) Never been to Taiwan! Will add it to the list!
For sure you have to move on and don’t look back. There are plenty of good things ahead of you. Stay safe and have fun!
Thank you so much 🥰
You are most welcome.
You are so fortunate , you can afford the flight to Japan , one day .............
Looking forward to this as Japan is on the list for January 2025.
Oh PERFECT! You’re gonna have so many tips 😂🙌🏻 I’ve got lots of videos coming your way!
@@travelforphoebe I will!!
Chocolate you were eating is called 'Kinoko no yama' meaning 'Mushroom mountain'.
My favourite!
Wow So beautifully and I'm Tuhin from Bangladesh. Sylhet city. I nice to meet you...😊😊😊😊
Phoebe"s breathing the new fresh air now
I really am! :)
Life is always good no matter it up or down
🥰
First comment! 😳✊🏻
Haha, of course you should!!!!!
ALWAYS book the flights!
@@travelforphoebe that’s typically my motto but after 8 months of travel to over a dozen countries, 40+ flights… I need a break! 😂. Think I should become a travel & foodie vlogger 😂
Omg yes you should!!!
It's like Jesus walked up to you and gave you a big hug and said "live and enjoy the vibes my child." I can tell you've been going through it to feel so overwhelmed with joy but just keep on living.
Oh my goodness 🥹♥️ that is just the loveliest thing to say. Thank you so much 🥰

Yukimi Daifuku since1981

Good looking couple.
Haha that’s very kind but we aren’t a couple 🥰🙏🏼 Friends who love travel!! 😍♥️
Namaste 🙏 Come to Nepal ❤ 🇳🇵 🎉
It's definitely on my travel bucket list! :)
Come to Philippines..😊😊😊
I was there not too long ago!
@@travelforphoebe how about a second visit or a third?..lets wander around..😊😊😊
If you have any free time please visit Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka is very nice country.
Hopefully I can visit one day soon 🙌🏻
@@travelforphoebe
Wow welcome to Sir Lanka madam
Madam I will send one travel book then you can get perfect edia about the Sri Lanka
You are so beautiful. All the best. Your hair is so pretty. I really want to travel to all the places I want visit and go to new places everyday. It would mean the world to me and make me so happy if I travel all the time. I am 26 years old, stuck in my parents house almost the whole day. I go to therapy twice a week, so depressing. Wish life wasn’t this way. I just want to do what makes me happy and I know traveling all the time/going out to new places will make me happy. I wish you a life full of joy, peace, and positivity. I hope you wish the same for me. Hopefully I do get to travel to all the places I want to soon ♥️
Thank you so much for watching! Sometimes we just gotta get up and go with what we've got and the rest just flows :)
Welcome to my hometown, Tokyo, Japan. Please tell me what you see and hear. I live in Kuala Lumpur. thank you
Thank you! 🥰
Got a question Phoebe, a lot of people over there are still wearing face masks, are they required or is it just what the locals choose to do ?
At the time I was there there wasn't a requirement to wear them :) I remember the first time I visited Japan, way before the plague, I noticed lots of people worse masks and when I asked a local about it they said it was most likely because that person wasn't feeling well and wanted to be polite and not spread their germs. Japan is truly amazing! Such kind, considerate people.
My impulse purchases are much lamer, wheelbarrow from Bunnings or new Kettle from Briscoes😕
Omg 😂😂😂 sometimes mine is a choccy milk from Woolies
Anh yêu em!
So sweet 🥰
😱😱😖😣😵😵
はっきり言って、濃厚ですか❓
I would love to travel solo to Japan. I was there for a month earlier this year but not by myself
It's such a great country for solo travel!!
You travel to Asia a lot.😃😃
Haha yesss the airfare deals from Australia are too good to resist!
Hopefully you guys met only good people in Japan🥹
and the Mochi ice cream flavor is sweet soy source btw😉
Thank you so much :) Literally EVERYONE we met in Japan was so lovely - it made the whole experience even more wonderful! The people are one of the things that keeps me coming back to Japan :) Great people, delicious food, beautiful scenery and so much fun!
Tokyo one of our fav places to visit for food…..went back in Feb 2023 & it was nice to see new businesses emerging but also a little sad that some good spots have closed
Oh my gosh yes the FOOD! I love that you can find great food everywhere, even the mini markets 😂
Gotta love the Jetstar return free sale! We grabbed tickets as well but we don’t go till November as it’s our fave time to go. Will be our 4th visit. Can’t wait to see more of your adventures, have loved watching them on insta!
The only problem is I convince myself the whole trip is gonna cost $299 😂 thank you so much love - I’ve been feeling so creatively inspired, like im connecting to the art of it all and finding my way to express myself. Its unexpected and amazing!
@@travelforphoebe 😂 If only! I like to remember how much I saved on flights when I’m spending money over there 😆 So glad your feeling creative, have absolutely loved seeing you pop up more on my Instagram stories 🤍
