  • And this was the weekend I found out the reason they call Niigata “Snow Country” 😍 I really miss living in Tokyo purely for all the amazing places so close by! Such a great weekend getaway :)

    "You can’t say that, this is a sponsored video!" 😂😂😂I couldn’t stop laughing. What a beautiful experience, it looked like so much fun.

    The little kids reminded of a time we were skiing in Japan. We standing at the top of a run watching the kids go down. Heck they're good. But there was a fenced off hole cliff thing in the middle of the run. One little girl was nonchalantly belting down towards it. All the onlookers around us, mostly Japanese, started going OOOOOOOOOHH!!! louder and louder as she got closer. We all did because we thought a tragedy was unfolding. But this little legend just skidded to a stop just before the fence and turned and looked up the hill at us and shrugged as if to say, What!? 😂
    It is hilariously humiliating to be attacking a black run as if your life depends on it and then see group of 8 year olds just breeze past.
    Winter in Japan is the best even if you're not skiing. Which I think is what you were doing Hannah - not skiing 😂 Kidding! I think I spend almost as much time on my arse in the snow as standing up. 😂

    You've put a huge grin on my dial, thanks guys... (those little skiers gliding past undignifiedly sprawled Hannah... gold)
    At the same time, I can picture a bunch of aussie ski fans silently crying while biting into their closed fist 🌩

    So good! You 2 having a great time and putting together a great video with good vibes. That place looked like an absolute winter wonderland. Think more travel companies need to be getting you both onboard to showcase the beautiful places in Japan. Even my Japanese partner loved this video and said how beautiful it looked. Well done guys!!

    @kvasko2 2 роки тому +3

    Wow! You really did a great job making this feel like a dream winter trip (+🍓). Also, the epic fall on skis was fun (kudos for feeling comfortable sharing things you might not be good at in your videos!). As always, background music is on point. Those opening shots getting off the train, just masterfully done.

    This is why Japan is so strong in the Winter Olympics. People in northern part of Japan all learn winter sports such as skiing from childhood. In Niigata, even children as young as five years old can ski.

    In a recent video, you comment about being unfamiliar with dressing like and adult. Here, when you back into the snow wall, you reveal the refreshing charm of staying in close touch with the kid within. Long may it remain so. Onya, lassie.
    The new snow coats the world with a refreshing veneer of cleanliness which lifts the spirits - when you're NOT the one doing the shovelling!
