Konnichiwa 👋 From what country are you watching from?🐵
Hi, watched your vlog a few times already and I am so inspired that I have to see it for myself! Will visit Japan this Feb 2025! I have a few questions, and your response will be much appreciated!
1. What camera did you use? 😅
2. On your first day, did you stay overnight in nagano? If so, what hotel?
3. The lockers in Nagano, for how long can we leave our baggage? Do they have lockers for big luggages?
4. Did you stay in hakuba iwatake for the night? or you went back to Nagano? If in hakuba, which hotel did you rent?
5. Seems like you are living in Japan, which area near Tokyo can you recommend as well? focus on picturesque snowy landscapes. Thank youuu!
Hello! Oh wow thank you for rewatching and I’M SO EXCITED FOR YOU😊
1. We use only Iphone 14 or 15 for all our videos here because we want the video capturing to be hassle free.
2. Im not super sure how long you can store luggages but i think most lockers here will just add fees for over 24hrs. And yes they have for big luggages.
3. We stayed in JAL Hotel.
4. We just did a day trip to Hakuba before going back to the city.
5. Nikko is pretty nice with snow too! We have a pending video for this 😅
@@DaydreamInJapan Thanks for responding! Appreciate it! I'm considering visiting Nikko as well!!! Can't wait for your Nikko vlog!
Lovely video ❤️.
May I please know where did you stay overnight at Nagano and how much is the rate? Thank you
So glad you loved our vlog 🥰💕 We stayed at JAL Hotel. You can check booking sites for current rayes but during our stay it was pretty reasonable :)
Thank you😊
❤❤❤❤
Thank you for appreciating our vlog! Hope you can subscribe ✨
Great video! May I know how long did you stay at snow monkey park?
@@chloelee3550 around 2 hours :)
you created outstanding masterpiece~😎
Wow thank you!! So glad you liked it! ❄️❄️❄️
omg we were there the same day! Did you all feel the earthquake?
Yeeah! Good thing we just finished the treck. We were waiting for the bus when the earthquake happened. How about you?
Thankkk you for this video!! Magtatravel din ako to Nagano next week and this itinerary is very very helpful ❤
Have fun! 🥳🥳
Are shops and restaurants open on Jan 1 or 2 in Hakuba? Any ideas?
Oh we didnt go outside iwatake. Inside the snow resort there is already a resto.
@@DaydreamInJapan yeah, I mean around Iwatake area actually. Not sure if I can find some eateries around the area coz I plan not book for meals at my accommodation.
Wow! Beautiful shots 😍 I'd like to ask if do you think it's possible to do a day trip only from Tokyo to Nagano if we are want to go visit Senjojiki Cirque for the alps?
@@sorakang7487 Thank you for appreciating our vlog ✨ Yes nagano can be a day trip via Shinkansen but im not sure where Senjojiki Cirque is.
It’s a good thing you showed the path going to the snow monkey park. I was thinking of foregoing this iti coz I thought the path was steep and slippery like the one going to Yamadera temple. I slipped on the icy stairs there twice that’s why I did not reach the peak. I guess ito- mahaba lang yung lalakarin pero madali lang ba? Am I right? Nice video!
Yes correct! It took us longer too coz we’re taking videos 😅 But yes pretty easy naman but boots are a must talaga. Have fun! 🐵🐒
What's that song on 12:25?? It's sooooo good 😭 loved the video
Thank you for the thoughtful and interesting info on each transfer...how much from Nagano station to snow monkey mountain? Type of shoes for snowy path..thk u
Thank you for appreciating the work we did 💕 Any winter boots will do. Just bought ours from GU and Donki
So beautiful. I've been contemplating on booking a flight to Nagano on winter or spring. Winter seems like a good idea.
It iiiis! Go for it! 🐒🐵
Sobrang ganda rito ❤ added to cart talaga HAHAHA tysm for sharing such informative details 😭😘
Super nice talaga! Really memorable winter experience nagulat rin ako actually. Thanks also for appreciating our vlog 🥲🥹 Hope you’ll subscribe! It means a lot 😊✨
Can we see this view in the months of December?
Beautiful! How much is the Iwatake Mt Resort gondola to the top (round trip)? Thank you
The gondola was around ¥2400 if we remember it right :)
I like the alps but the monkeys are amazing too! Since Ray took 70% of the video, kudos to Ray! I’m happy you and Ray are having a great time together. Take care. 😍
Gumagaling yung videographer intern ko! Haha! Thanks so much uncle! Take care too 🥰
New subscriber here. Great vlog! Really entertaining and informative. Made me more excited to visit Nagano in Feb. I have a few questions I hope you can answer.
1. May I know how much you spent inside Hakuba (lift/gondola tickets and other non-food expenses)? Want to visit Iwatake Resort too.
2. How much was the onsen?
3. Did the onsen require you to be naked?
Thanks in advance!
Wow thanks for subscribing 💖 If we remember it right gondola was around ¥2400. Food was around ¥1k+ , onsen was around ¥600 ( you can ask iwatake for ¥100 off coupon! Forgot to add this in the video). And yes, you need to be naked in the onsen :) Have fuuun! ✨✨✨
Ooh btw you might catch the Kamakura! You can eat nabe inside an igloo! This was in our bucket list but it opens in Feb
Went to Nagano for the first time this year to hike the Nakasendo Trail. Narai-juku is a beautiful town and a must visit!
Yeah we wanted to visit this too but no time :( Maybe next time if we get to go back! Did you go there during summer? The trails look awesome!
I'm going to Hakuba in about a month, so it's nice to see some videos of what to do there. Great shots!
Oh niiice! You’ll love it! You might catch the Kamakura in Nagano- you can eat nabe in igloos :)
where did you stay please help?
we stayed at JAL hotel :)
are you staying at Metropolitan hotel or another hotel? before ahead to iwatake
We stayed at JAL Hotel :)
@@DaydreamInJapan one more question please, is there any locker rent for suitcase/bag at hakuba iwatake?
@@ripacourt yes there is! :)
This video is so beautiful
Thanks so much for appreciating 💕
When are you traveling in nagano?
This was Jan 1 :)
When does it usually start to snow i nagano?😢
Covid?? Wow
Christmas celebrations are huge in the philippines so it was easy to spread during that time.
Ganda ❤
Thank you ❤
I rarely add comments to a video, but I think this one is really worth it: it is inspiring, beautiful, unpretentious and with excellent shots. Your channel deserves many more followers, keep up the good work and you will achieve it. I take this opportunity to ask you a question, is it true that you can rent snow boots when you arrive at the monkey site?
Oh wow thank you for this appreciation comment ✨ Means a lot! Hope you can follow along our journey here in Japan 💕 Re the boots, hmm I dont think we noticed a rental. But would recommend to wear boots already esp if youre going also to other parts of Nagano. It was quite cold too during January.
