Thank you! Has your family been down to Okinawa yet? If you guys come for a vacation, I would love to be your guide. Shell collecting, snorkeling, great food, hiking, etc. is all here:)
Really appreciate that! I will start doing more with my research background in mental health in future videos about Japan. this was a start in that direction 🙏
My local co-workers on Okinawa never liked being referred to as Japanese. They were Okinawan. After learning of the atrocities Okinawans suffered at the hands of Japanese soldiers during WWII, it was understandable. If you haven't visited the memorial at The Cave of the Virgins, I highly recommend it. Their courageous, tragic story will remain in your heart forever.
Thank you for letting me know about the memorial at The Cave of the Virgins! I have never heard about it before and now plan on going there over winter break. I finally have time to really explore. And yes, I am learning from local Okinawans about their feelings in regards to their relationship to Japan. I have a lot to learn and thank you for sharing your experience with me 🙏
Thank you whushaw! I wanted to capture how I feel when exploring Okinawa in my videos. AND YES! Thank you. I can't believe how beautiful it is here, especially in the ocean. have you been here before?
@@DrJustininJapan I've never been to Japan before. If I do it will be either to learn more Japanese and explore! I never knew about this blue waters in Okinawa. I heard Okinawa is kind of like the Hawaii of Japan. Would you say that's accurate?
What a fun adventure - and great music selection to go with it!
