    Hey Mav, I lived in northern Japan (Miyagi Prefecture) for three years. Sapporo is the best nature in all of Japan. And I love that you are cooking Japanese dishes while you are there. In Japanese, instead of Bon Apetit, you say itadakimasu. To help us remember, we jokingly say "Eat a duck we must"!

    • @scottwynkoop4200
      @scottwynkoop4200 Рік тому

      @@George-nx8zu To me, more than sites to see, I think the best things are the festivals. Japan is an ancient society whose culture is second to none in the world. Sapporo is world famous for the Snow Festival (Yuki Matsuri) and the Yasakoi Suran Festival in early summer. Of course, being from Alaska, I love the national parks and nature possibilities. To combine nature and festivals, check out the Onuma Lake Festival in July. But again, to me the best of Japan can be found in the people, their culture and traditions (and they generally love it when visitors participate).

    One suggestion: Rinse your veggies in water before cooking. There could be pesticides and other nasty things on it that you don't want to eat, so it's for your own sake I give you this advice.

    I love the fact you edited the video and filmed it nearly like how some of the Japanese travel vloggers do but also kept your style in there. Maybe unintentionally done but it seemed so. Anyhow. Sweet video

    MAV, Awesome video. The Japan series is one of your best. Hope you can go back and camp during the spring and go trout fishing. The rivers are amazing. 🎣👍
