Thank you SO MUCH for sharing this side of Japan. I was a teacher in the JET Program on Shikoku, and while I love Tokyo and Kyoto, this rural side of the country holds my heart.
Whan an amazing experience and great Video too!! Have watched all your Japan series and had to add Japan to my bucket list! You are such a lovely couple, and your Japanese family is just wonderful ❤
Wow, that's awesome that Yasue was the women's wakeboarding champion of Japan. The footage you got of her was amazing. I hope you made a special video for her and are able to parse it with some older footage of her competing to give it to her as a gift. It's cool that you got to visit her family and experience local living vs the big city life that 99% of foreign tourists see. The homecooked and restaurant food all looked amazing. Happy that you were able to have someone guide you through it all. It's awesome that Joseph used to live there so he knew Japanese and also had places he enjoyed. I always enjoy learning about the different types of food atmospheres in different cultures when I travel. This has been my favorite episode so far. Plus, baby Sakura is so cute. Awesome video.
Awe this comment is so amazing. Thank you so much for your kind words! We absolutely loved our visit and we’re glad we can share such a special part of Japan for us. We are glad you enjoyed the video 🥹☺️
I have been following since you guys started vlogging and even though I love all of your videos, this one by far was my favorite ! How special to meet Mico’s brother, his wife and her family. So special to see the hospitality that you received there. And the experiences! So happy for you guys to be able to live this life and allowing me to live vicariously through your videos. Thank you for always letting me tag along with you in your adventures ! Much love, Rita from Missouri, USA
@ritasmoot1823 it’s so cool to hear from someone who’s been here from the beginning! Thank you so much for joining us for this incredible journey 😊 we’re so glad you enjoyed this video, it was really special to us 🤗
I’ve been watching a ton of Japan related videos for months now. Obsessed. This video is so unique. A great dive into everyday life Japan outside of the massive metro areas. Wish more of this content existed on UA-cam. Thank you both for making this. Cheers.
Just discovered you guys and watched your whole Japan series so far only to finish the Kyoto blog and see this post showing ‘uploaded 10 seconds ago’ talk about timing and being first here
Japan actually has one of the highest poverty rate in the world. Considering its low average living standards as compare to western countries that means its poverty level is the worst in all developed countries. Couple with a monoethnic society which racism is common, Japan is at least a decade behind western society standard. The 80s of living large are long gone. Many Japanese are getting by with little to no savings which lead to one of the highest suicide rate in the world.
Does anybody else love these personal and authentic travel experiences? ☺They're definitely our favourite! 😋
These types of posts are some of the shared experiences I really enjoy about your channel.

嘘はいけないね。
Sadly, there are some people in this world who get pleasure from saying bad things about others. Are you one of them?
日本に住んでいますが、そんな事は聞いたことも無いです。その感覚もありません。少なくとも精神は豊かです😚
Have you ever been to Japan? I think you should to experience firsthand.
Great video!
Thank you 😊
