I apologize for commenting on these videos for the first time, considering the time I've spent watching all of them. I'd like to say the best part about these videos is the great personalities presenting them and their amazing relationship together. We live vicariously through you two! Oh and I've signed on as a Patreon - Give me a cookie.
Nicholas Gray Hi Nicholas, thank you so much for the comment. It means a lot to hear things like this to us, helps give us fuel to keep shooting, that's for sure. Double thanks for singing up as a Patreon, that project is really going to expand what we are able to make, so big thanks for being a part of that! -Eric
You go guys! You're visiting one of my favorite places in all of Japan :) Almost toping the place I live now. Next time try Enoshima, it's right off Kamakura, another beautiful place to go to if you want to visit Kamakura again.
Alberta, Canada. They say it is still summer here. Got at least another 5 inches last night. Thinking of moving to Antarctica, here it doesn't snow as much there :)
So going back re watching all your old videos back to back all the ones I liked from the ones I haven't liked. Your guys marriage was awesome to watch how so much has changed from then to now, HOnestly you two are pretty cool to have recorded so much of your life for all the world to see respect.
The barriers at train stations are there to also prevent people normally falling on to the railway. There's been quite a few incidents of people pushing other people on to the track, crowd control during rush hour, child prams that roll on to the tracks, children and drunk people falling by accident and suicide attempts. It makes a lot sense to put up barriers.
patsybob Oh, yea, it makes incredible sense to put up the barriers. It's sort of insane they don't exist in the first place. I was in a hurry when I shot that so I didn't mention that they prevent accidents too, I was more commenting on how silly the blue light "solution" is. -Eric
Kyde and Eric That water basin thing with the ladles are actually a purification ritual one does before entering holy or sacred ground. You should wash your hands like Eric did but also take an extra scoop and clean the ladle with when you'r done. +1 to going to see the beautiful daibutsu :D Btw, you can enter it too!
I love the go home music!!! We were told when we went to Japan that the reason you wash your hands and rinse your mouth is because you need to be cleansed before going into the temple. Passing under the arch ways(or whatever it's called) cleanses your soul and the water is to clean you physically. Something like that.
I love that blue dress you are wearing! Also, I just saw you have a patreon YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! love your videos! thanks so much for sharing your life with us!!!!
***** I love her dress too! Thanks for checking out the Patreon page. We're excited to see where it can take our video project! Thanks for watching, too! -Eric
Going through your old videos, I totally can't believe you and Kyde found a lifehack to infinitely double your money each time you pour that special water on it! lol
What Kyde describes about seeing the Buddha, I totally know that feeling. The first time I felt that was in Washington DC, where I was, "The Capital Dome!", "It's the White House!", "The Washington Monument, right there!" But our first day in Tokyo, we were exiting Shibuya station and got hit with, "That's THE Intersection!". And yes, we had it too when we visited Kamakura.
Hi Guys, first time posting on any of your videos I think, but I enjoy them very much! I just wanted to say that I think that triforce symbol is the Clan Symbol of the Hojo Clan back in the Sengoku Jidai Era of japan.....at least that's what they have in Shogun (the Video Game) ;-P
I'd love to see you guys go to Hashima Island. That's one of the places I really want to go to when I visit Japan some day. It's this abandoned city that's basically a concrete island from my understanding and it used to be a coal mine town. I know you can go there, I'm not sure if it's a structured tour type thing or if you can just wander about. I've always wanted to take pictures there because it's just so cool/creepy seeming.
+Pengwynd Yea, I've seen pictures of that place before. From what I have heard you can go out to it, but it's a LOOONG way from Tokyo so not sure if we will ever get the chance. -Eric
How did you find a shirt that fits you Eric!?! My friend and I can not find any shirts that for our shoulder width haha. By the way, I'm keeping an eye out for you two in Tokyo!
SmilingWolfofBurnaby I don't have trouble with short sleeve shirts here at all, I'm pretty skinny I guess. Uniqlo's L size shirts fit me perfectly. If you see us, say whats up! -Eric
Great to see a new video from you guys. I'm liking the look of that オムライス！ How do you feel about the smoking situation? Do you often find yourself uncomfortably close to smokers in enclosed spaces? And are you both taking note of kanji you don't know in public places? Seems like a good learning tool.
GanonDun The smoking is annoying. It's not something that happens all the time, but when it does it's irritating. I can't figure out who thinks it's OK to do something that effects strangers in such a way, it's really bizarre. It's hard to "pick up" kanji as there is SO much of it and unless you see it over and over in the same type of place you don't get enough context to learn it without actually sitting down and studying it. I mean, a few sink in...for instance 押す (means push, like a door) because you see it on doors all the time, but things less practical require traditional study. I like kanji a lot though, so it's fun. -Eric
Great video guys! I was a little geeked when I saw the moth. I'm fascinated with moths. Anyhow, I think that was a Japanese Silk Moth (Antheraea Yamamai). They grow these to produce silk. Great capture. It's also a good sign that the land around there is very ecologically healthy. Anyhow...
IrishLincoln Oh wow, cool. A moth guy, who knew! It's awesome how someone out there is interested in every little aspect of the world, I love that! Thanks for the info! -Eric
but...the color blue is supposed to make one feel sadness, like they are engulfed in a sea of misery, drowning in their misfortune..thats supposed to HELP people who are considering suicide? oh my god what were they thinking........!??!?
u guys make the best vlogs in japan i would love too see more stuff. like a convinient store or something daily vlogs would be insame . Keep up the good job guys .luv u
kami raysa I have no idea how people who do daily vlogs do it. I like to make kinda full featured videos when possible too...going out and exploring. I guess I'd rather have weekly or bi-weekly videos of us doing things than daily videos of us just talking. I'd run out of things to say. Thanks though, glad you enjoy the videos! -Eric
Kyde's buddha face is spot on. Also, it seems the Japanese people have a lot of faith in a person's ability to calm down if all they have in some train stations is blue lights....
Another awesome video. Eric, where do you shop for clothes in Tokyo. I'm going back and want to get people souvenirs and all my family (males) are 6'2" and above.
ZeroWolfLuke I'd say hit up Uniqlo. The Ginza location has an entire floor of cool t-shirts, and they are reasonably priced. In fact, the shirt I was wearing in this video is from that very store. -Eric
Polesp The what now banner?....googles.....oh, yea, that's what that is. I see it all the time, but it sorta blends in with all the other anime stuff I don't know anything about, haha. -Eric
Kyde, Eric; Thanks for the new video! Always look forward to your Japan adventures. Did you get to see inside the Buddha? When I visited Kamakura it was February and raining constantly, nice to see it in the sun. Travel safe.

***** Yea, it's a pretty amazing camera for the size and price. I really want to play with an RX100-Markiii as from what I've seen it's even a step up, but I just can't justify the price. The best thing about our HX50V (we upgraded in January) is the image stabilization. It's just crazy good. -Eric
***** Honestly, the most important thing for us is that I can put it in my pocket, which isn't really possible using any camera that has removable lenses. -Eric
I wandered around Kamakura for a whole day, and managed to get my tanuki in a ceramics shop. It's a small one about 3-4 inches tall and its female. She has a leaf strategically hiding her lady bits. I got it because hell... it's a *female* tanuki. When do you see that?
Kamakura is a samurai's holy place. enjoy! It is because Kamakura is an area of 'Gonoseki' (ancient site) or 'Yogai no chi' (an impregnable fortress), or in other words a natural castle. enjoy!
Thanks for the new vids guys though it kinda felt awkward for me seeing the both of you finally in Japan. LOL Weird but i've been spending my last few days watching your trip in Taiwan. Anyway, please do visit NAGOYA too. :)
Nice to see you guys again. Been waiting for your next video. Looks like a nice little get away from the usual grind. I hope that water does something to your money. Also in terms of that Myanmar pin well I hope you get a chance to visit the country again. My wife will be going back hopefully in December to see her mother. Maybe I will get the chance in Feb 2015. You guys are the greatest. We love your candor.
Roger Skebelsky Thanks so much! I hope we get to return too, but if we do it will probably be after the country (hopefully) opens up a bit more and becomes more stabilized. We want to explore further reaches of the country if possible! -Eric
OMURICE!!!!!D discovered this stuff at Korean restaurants in and around Baltimore lately, just plain fried rice and ketchup though, but SOOO satisfying, i am HOOKED!!! i think if there was a specialized omurice diner near me, i'd be in a lot of trouble.....O
Have a smoke behind a roped off section of beach, or in a glass hut in the park, just so weird. Although I have been off the smokes for 5 months I think freedom to light up outdoors where you wish is correct.
I wish my disability wouldn't affect me so much I can't work to save up money for nice things I would love a chance to have a holiday in Japan I'm obsessed with the place :)
hey guys. been a long time since i said hi. loved the video! the OmuRice looked awesome and made me drool. lol. just a silly question. if someone offered you money for room and board and traveling expenses , would you take someone with you on a adventure? just a curious question is all. i know it would have to be around a convenient time on your schedule. this is just a hypothetical question. my life is one right now where i dont have money at all and i am trying to get social security for disability. so it will probaly will never happen. but asking questions is also learning things you dont know. so i asked. lol. sorry. wishing you well!
ladyamerias I'm happy to see a comment from you again, it has been a while! Interesting question.To be totally honest the issue would be finding the time, which we are very stretched thin on these days. We hardly have time to go on trips just on our own, I have no idea how we would schedule time to go with others. We try our best to meet people who'd like to meet us for dinner when they come to Japan and it's really difficult to even find time for that! Cool idea, though. -Eric
awesome! thanks for the response. i really hope you guys get more personal time for yourself. you 2 are so awesome and funny. if i had the money i would donate to you. wishing you both my love. thank you.
ladyamerias Don't worry about contributions if you can't afford it, it's not important. If you want to give just pop into the comments now and then to let us know you are still watching, that means a lot to us! -Eric
Haha you two make it look easy, but I'm sure it's not that easy. I'm in law enforcement and I'm not sure how they allow that there being I'm a female and in a same sex marriage.
shannon Nguyen You do raise some different challenges. Typically the easiest way to get into Japan as an English speaking native teaching is the best option. Working in other fields is tough as you are competing with Japanese people for the jobs and their language level is incredibly hard to beat. As far as the same sex marriage, I have no idea how that works as far as visas and stuff goes. It's actually kind of an interesting question...if a same sex couple is legally married in their home country but same sex marriage isn't something recognized in the country they want to move to are they denied marriage-related visas? I have no idea. It'll be nice when the world finally moves forward and stops being ignorant about this stuff. -Eric
Thank you for the advice. My wife and I love to travel, so Japan is top on our bucket list of places to travel one day. We used to live in Hawai'i for 3 years. My wife is active duty army and we were stationed there at Schofield/wheeler army base. Now we are currently stationed here in colorado at Fort carson for the last year. I'm in law enforcement so our jobs keep us from doing a whole lot but when we take vacations we always travel. The world will open its eyes one day do see we are no different than anyone else. Again thanks for the awesome videos and advice you guys rock!
I love how ur girlfriend isn't afraid of anything and enjoys taking things to the next level , even if it means snooping around or trespassing lol love her
Whenever I see you've uploaded something it fills me with so much joy!
ikr c:
kriSTAR Yay! -Eric

YES! Just got the biggest smile on my face when I seen you guys posted something new. I've literally seen every video on this channel...you guys rule.
TheTeratoma Wow, that's incredible, we have a lot of videos! Thanks so much! -Eric
Your old footage brings back my life history.
You go guys! You're visiting one of my favorite places in all of Japan :) Almost toping the place I live now. Next time try Enoshima, it's right off Kamakura, another beautiful place to go to if you want to visit Kamakura again.
ZhnYe Yea, everyone tells us we missed a cool little train! Dang it, I love little trains! -Eric
I visited Kamakura when I was 23 in 1997. Your video brought back a lot of sweet memories. Thanks guys.
+Paul McLernon Awesome! -E
Thanks for my Kyde and Eric fix. Was nice to see a place without snow
BrokeAB Is it...snowing where you are? Are you in Antarctica? -Eric
Alberta, Canada. They say it is still summer here. Got at least another 5 inches last night. Thinking of moving to Antarctica, here it doesn't snow as much there :)
BrokeAB Amazing, you live in a crazy different part of the world than we have ever lived in. I'd love to visit it sometime! -Eric
Hopefully the snow will melt today and then be up +20 this weekend. Guest room is always ready
BrokeAB Hah, wow. Hope we can make it your direction someday, would be a cool place to explore! -Eric
So going back re watching all your old videos back to back all the ones I liked from the ones I haven't liked. Your guys marriage was awesome to watch how so much has changed from then to now, HOnestly you two are pretty cool to have recorded so much of your life for all the world to see respect.
Haha, yea, it's really weird for us to go back and see older videos too. It's hard to realize how much has actually changed for us. -E
Loved the video ! On that island on Enoshima beach , there is one of beautiest shrines of Kamakura ... over the rocks , clifts and the sea !
I love your guys' videos so much. Great way to start my day.
Jacob Foster Awesome, thanks! -Eric
Thanks for the new vid and congrats on 14k subs !

+1 to going to see the beautiful daibutsu :D
Btw, you can enter it too!
U both age, through those previous video.
Watching your clips cheer me up.
I hope u guys really have a great, happy and finest life.
Hj L Thanks! Enjoy! -Eric
I love the go home music!!! We were told when we went to Japan that the reason you wash your hands and rinse your mouth is because you need to be cleansed before going into the temple. Passing under the arch ways(or whatever it's called) cleanses your soul and the water is to clean you physically. Something like that.
Michelle Castanaza Yea, it's something like that. We have about the same amount of understanding and we've been here like 3 years, haha. -Eric
I noticed why I like watching you guys.
You two are very natural on camera :)
Tom Ato Thanks, that's a great compliment! -Eric
I love that blue dress you are wearing! Also, I just saw you have a patreon YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! love your videos! thanks so much for sharing your life with us!!!!
***** Thanks! -Kyde
***** I love her dress too! Thanks for checking out the Patreon page. We're excited to see where it can take our video project! Thanks for watching, too! -Eric
We missed your videos guys! So inspiring! Please keep on doing them! Hugs!
KOBA971 We will keep making videos, don't worry! Thanks! -Eric
Going through your old videos, I totally can't believe you and Kyde found a lifehack to infinitely double your money each time you pour that special water on it! lol
hahaha
Been missing you guys. YAY!
Slowbot returns! I think Kyde took the Eric size bite of the dove cookie, this time. Thanks for posting the video guys ... it's been waaay too long!
HighCotton8 Yea, she ate a lot of that cookie, didn't she? -Eric
It's my home town! I'm living the US now.This video makes me homesick!
Ai .N You have a delightful hometown! -Eric
Great video. Thanks Kyde and Eric.
***** Thanks!
haha! "I make my own world" ..best line
That reminded me of when Adam Savage on Mythbusters said: "I reject your reality and substitute my own."
Ultros Tako It's true, she totally does. -Eric
Dudes! New video! Check it out: ua-cam.com/video/rtcSvt22OjU/v-deo.html
Love the hidden Zelda gems! I love you guys! Keep up the great work. Safe travels and God bless.
David Lindstrom Thanks so much! I'm pretty sure those triforces were a family crest, but it's still a cool sighting! Take care! -Eric
***** yea, I looked it up when we got home. Pretty cool, I totally didn't know that! -Eric
It's great to see another vid!
"I make my own world" lol freakin awesome. love you guys!! keep posting!
Been to Kamakura a couple of times and plan on visiting there next March when I visit Japan again. The Daibutsu and the Kannon Temple are my faves.
Perdomot Nice, it's certainly a cool place! Enjoy your trip! -Eric
So happy to watch your latest video...but always wanting more lol The bamboo forest is amazing. You are both awesome.
Betty Hayward Yea, that forest really is incredible. Thanks so much! -Eric
Awesome vlog!! If you have any more footage of the bamboo please upload it in a future vlog,was so beautiful!!
jrh4lo We basically put everything we shot in the video. It is quite striking, isn't it? -Eric
I miss Japan so much now.
James Stoltz I hear you!
Kyde you look amazing! That dress! Love your seal shirt too Eric! Cheers guys for my Japan fix :-)
Nicole Merrigan Thanks! Her dress is great, isn't it?! -Eric

Jaafar Kaoussarani Sorry! We are back! -Eric

Holy crap those cicadas are loud as hell
Willem Cohen Truth!
Hi Guys, first time posting on any of your videos I think, but I enjoy them very much!

Yes kamakura Budda is very impressive when we when there also few years back !!!!!! Nice too see your vid again !!!!
How did you find a shirt that fits you Eric!?! My friend and I can not find any shirts that for our shoulder width haha. By the way, I'm keeping an eye out for you two in Tokyo!
SmilingWolfofBurnaby I don't have trouble with short sleeve shirts here at all, I'm pretty skinny I guess. Uniqlo's L size shirts fit me perfectly. If you see us, say whats up! -Eric
Great video! You're making me hungry with all that great food!
Simon Palmieri Thanks! I gotta get some more of that omelet rice, just thinking about it is making me hungry. -Eric
Great to see a new video from you guys. I'm liking the look of that オムライス！

Kyde and Eric They're interesting creatures. It's just a hobby. I collect books and photos, no specimens. You found a good one!
i was wondering when the kyde thumbnail pic scene was coming, haha nice bit of a bloopers
Allen M Hahaha.
but...the color blue is supposed to make one feel sadness, like they are engulfed in a sea of misery, drowning in their misfortune..thats supposed to HELP people who are considering suicide? oh my god what were they thinking........!??!?
"I make my own World"; amazing quote from Kyde.
Jacob Lynd It's a truthbomb, too. Haha. -Eric
You both rock in general; I also enjoy jellied foods.
Jacob Lynd Thanks! Jellied things are awesome. -Eric
A new vidio! Thank you so much for making my day better :D
lordgubi Sweet, glad to brighten your day a little bit! -Eric
You seem like such a nice and great couple. I love your videos!
Thanks!!
u guys make the best vlogs in japan i would love too see more stuff.
like a convinient store or something daily vlogs would be insame . Keep up the good job guys .luv u
kami raysa I have no idea how people who do daily vlogs do it. I like to make kinda full featured videos when possible too...going out and exploring. I guess I'd rather have weekly or bi-weekly videos of us doing things than daily videos of us just talking. I'd run out of things to say. Thanks though, glad you enjoy the videos! -Eric
its so good to see you guys, i love your vids you guys are crazy. great vid thx :)
xcessive2008 Thanks! -Eric
Kyde's buddha face is spot on. Also, it seems the Japanese people have a lot of faith in a person's ability to calm down if all they have in some train stations is blue lights....
lbonini1gaming Yea, the blue lights are just ridiculous, aren't they? -Eric
I'm curious as to who the person is that decided it and who agreed with them...
Another awesome video. Eric, where do you shop for clothes in Tokyo. I'm going back and want to get people souvenirs and all my family (males) are 6'2" and above.
ZeroWolfLuke I'd say hit up Uniqlo. The Ginza location has an entire floor of cool t-shirts, and they are reasonably priced. In fact, the shirt I was wearing in this video is from that very store. -Eric
Kyde and Eric Awesome, thanks! You gonna try the Burger King Black Burger when it comes out? lol
ZeroWolfLuke Yep!
Love the vid! The Evangelion banner at the beginning was an added bonus :D
Polesp The what now banner?....googles.....oh, yea, that's what that is. I see it all the time, but it sorta blends in with all the other anime stuff I don't know anything about, haha. -Eric
been there. had so much fun
Yasssssss, new video :D
I love your videos! :-)
Kyde, Eric;
Thanks for the new video! Always look forward to your Japan adventures. Did you get to see inside the Buddha? When I visited Kamakura it was February and raining constantly, nice to see it in the sun. Travel safe.
Philip Hermann You can go inside of it?! Sorry you had bad weather, bummer! -Eric
I don't do social media stuff like Facebook or Twitter. Is there another way to donate?

romepaysoff Thanks! -Eric
"Bummer, I'm not gonna share my riches with you". "Yes, you are!" LOL. You guys are hilarious!
Anthony Zhu haha, the funny part is she is totally the bread winner. -Eric
10:30ish is what makes the Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-HX20V
I hear the WX350 is the next best thing for LESS.
***** Yea, it's a pretty amazing camera for the size and price. I really want to play with an RX100-Markiii as from what I've seen it's even a step up, but I just can't justify the price. The best thing about our HX50V (we upgraded in January) is the image stabilization. It's just crazy good. -Eric
***** Good idea, we love it! -Eric
I thought you would go for a A7S
***** Honestly, the most important thing for us is that I can put it in my pocket, which isn't really possible using any camera that has removable lenses. -Eric
I wandered around Kamakura for a whole day, and managed to get my tanuki in a ceramics shop. It's a small one about 3-4 inches tall and its female. She has a leaf strategically hiding her lady bits. I got it because hell... it's a *female* tanuki. When do you see that?
ikaruseijin01 Awesome, can we get a picture of this?
Kyde and Eric Certainly. I took a shot just now and posted it on instagram: instagram.com/p/suqP8AGTnc/
ikaruseijin01
wow, so cool!
***** Thanks!
ikaruseijin01 Oh my god, that's incredible. Does she have a name? If not...can I nominate "Golden Balless?" -Eric
You guys will be huge one day, I truly believe it.
Willboy Chungcho God, I'm already 6foot7...how big and I going to get? -Eric
In japan, I have been to Fukuoka, Nagoya, Yokohama, Nagasaki, Tokyo and Kyoto in Japan. Just love it. Have you been to all these places?
Willboy Chungcho Nope, the farthest south we've been in Japan is Hiroshima. We really want to explore more of the country though! -Eric
Love your vids. Would probably never visit japan,thanks for sharing your journey.
Omar Alvarez Thanks! Japan is a pretty cool place to visit if you ever feel up to it! -Eric
I may have forgotten but wasn't there a passage way to go inside buddha?
luckviii Yea, someone mentioned that, but we totally don't know about it if there is! -Eric
Kamakura is a samurai's holy place. enjoy!
It is because Kamakura is an area of 'Gonoseki' (ancient site) or 'Yogai no chi' (an impregnable fortress), or in other words a natural castle.
enjoy!
大川大山 Thanks for the info! It's certainly a cool place! -Eric
Thanks for the new vids guys though it kinda felt awkward for me seeing the both of you finally in Japan. LOL Weird but i've been spending my last few days watching your trip in Taiwan. Anyway, please do visit NAGOYA too. :)
Yuya Hayasaki Never made it to Nagoya....maybe we should aim for it sometime? -Eric
Eric: "This is my sausage." Kyde: Pans down to crotch. Me: Iced tea comes out my nose.
Kyde looks great in blue!
Kenzo Shibakariki I know! -Eric
You guys should watch "Kodoku no gurume" for tasty restaurants and maybe your next few destinations to visit.
Honinbo Shusaku I'll check it out! -Eric
Kamakura was so fun when I went. Mmm taro and green tea ice cream.
Charlene Leung Green Tea icecream is pretty on point! Good call. -Eric
As someone who lived in panama city, that beach is clean. Also, i forgot that beaches were normally not white
Michael T Haha, fair enough. We have certainly seen nicer beaches, though. -Eric
Nice to see you guys again. Been waiting for your next video. Looks like a nice little get away from the usual grind. I hope that water does something to your money. Also in terms of that Myanmar pin well I hope you get a chance to visit the country again. My wife will be going back hopefully in December to see her mother. Maybe I will get the chance in Feb 2015. You guys are the greatest. We love your candor.
Roger Skebelsky Thanks so much! I hope we get to return too, but if we do it will probably be after the country (hopefully) opens up a bit more and becomes more stabilized. We want to explore further reaches of the country if possible! -Eric
Obon - that's the same day as the Ghost Festival observed by the Chinese. A time for ancestor worship.
CNVideos Yep, that's the one! -Eric
"Don't make fun of their God"
Yesss, new video :D
***** Yiiiissssss.
OMURICE!!!!!D
discovered this stuff at Korean restaurants in and around Baltimore lately, just plain fried rice and ketchup though, but SOOO satisfying, i am HOOKED!!!
i think if there was a specialized omurice diner near me, i'd be in a lot of trouble.....O
skuzzbunny Haha, yea, isn't it surprisingly amazing? -Eric
Have a smoke behind a roped off section of beach, or in a glass hut in the park, just so weird. Although I have been off the smokes for 5 months I think freedom to light up outdoors where you wish is correct.
Congrats on quitting! Here's to your health! -E
Ha was there few weeks ago , big Buddha n beach . There was no cicadas though
Still got a few weeks to go before they wake up!
@@kydeanderic interesting, in southern Europe they are out by June I think . Not sure if it's the wind or needs to be hot for them to come out
Nice !!! TY :P
I love that blue dress, Kyde.
Zia Jacobs I love her dress to! She says "thanks!" -Eric
Kyde and Eric No problem. :-)
I wish my disability wouldn't affect me so much I can't work to save up money for nice things I would love a chance to have a holiday in Japan I'm obsessed with the place :)
hey guys. been a long time since i said hi. loved the video! the OmuRice looked awesome and made me drool. lol. just a silly question. if someone offered you money for room and board and traveling expenses , would you take someone with you on a adventure? just a curious question is all. i know it would have to be around a convenient time on your schedule. this is just a hypothetical question. my life is one right now where i dont have money at all and i am trying to get social security for disability. so it will probaly will never happen. but asking questions is also learning things you dont know. so i asked. lol. sorry. wishing you well!
ladyamerias I'm happy to see a comment from you again, it has been a while! Interesting question.To be totally honest the issue would be finding the time, which we are very stretched thin on these days. We hardly have time to go on trips just on our own, I have no idea how we would schedule time to go with others. We try our best to meet people who'd like to meet us for dinner when they come to Japan and it's really difficult to even find time for that! Cool idea, though. -Eric
awesome! thanks for the response. i really hope you guys get more personal time for yourself. you 2 are so awesome and funny. if i had the money i would donate to you. wishing you both my love. thank you.
ladyamerias
Don't worry about contributions if you can't afford it, it's not important. If you want to give just pop into the comments now and then to let us know you are still watching, that means a lot to us! -Eric
Que genial! Me la pasé comiendo esos bollos de pizza de 7Eleven todo el viaje!!!!
you guys are great! my girlfriend and i are inspired to visit japan now :D
hellboundgod Awesome! It's a really cool place to see! Hope you make it! -Eric
6:35 Kyde has the best "skeezy" face ever.
the triforce i think signifies the scales of a dragon i ant really remember because I read it a long time ago
Triforces everywhere! I'm having thoughts that maybe this is where Link *really* got his Keaton mask...
hiiiimymelody Hah, maybe! -Eric
For some reason, I was hoping that Kyde was going to get oyakodon. ^_^
KentosWorld Also good!
yay you guys aren't dead!
Rodney Routt Don't be so sure! -Eric
I love you guys! I want to move to Japan with my wife now haha
shannon Nguyen Do it! It's easy. -Eric
Haha you two make it look easy, but I'm sure it's not that easy. I'm in law enforcement and I'm not sure how they allow that there being I'm a female and in a same sex marriage.
shannon Nguyen You do raise some different challenges. Typically the easiest way to get into Japan as an English speaking native teaching is the best option. Working in other fields is tough as you are competing with Japanese people for the jobs and their language level is incredibly hard to beat. As far as the same sex marriage, I have no idea how that works as far as visas and stuff goes. It's actually kind of an interesting question...if a same sex couple is legally married in their home country but same sex marriage isn't something recognized in the country they want to move to are they denied marriage-related visas? I have no idea. It'll be nice when the world finally moves forward and stops being ignorant about this stuff. -Eric
Thank you for the advice. My wife and I love to travel, so Japan is top on our bucket list of places to travel one day. We used to live in Hawai'i for 3 years. My wife is active duty army and we were stationed there at Schofield/wheeler army base. Now we are currently stationed here in colorado at Fort carson for the last year. I'm in law enforcement so our jobs keep us from doing a whole lot but when we take vacations we always travel. The world will open its eyes one day do see we are no different than anyone else. Again thanks for the awesome videos and advice you guys rock!
Holy crap! Eric is SO TALL!
TheShinyLapras True! 6foot7! -Eric
I love how ur girlfriend isn't afraid of anything and enjoys taking things to the next level , even if it means snooping around or trespassing lol love her
Freddy Lon Yea, she seriously just spent an hour building a contraption to "liberate" a fruit from a neighbor's tree. She's crazy. -Eric

MonsieurAlgorithme Thanks! -Eric

I found that the guards freak out when you stand too close to the train platform fence.
chingy1788 haha, yea, they try to keep people from dying. The air movement from the train could easily suck you under if you aren't careful. -Eric
sea lion from pier 39 in San Francisco on your shirt.
