As someone who has suffered from anxiety....😮 I honesty find your posts so comforting and reassuring....after watching i feel happy calmed and more balanced... thanks Victor and Sam 😊 You two have a natural synergy that flows....👍👌💕
Can’t believe the video is almost an hour long when I finished it. Watched it on my iPad with zero distraction. That’s the meaning of good storytelling! ❤❤❤
Stumbled across your tokyo vlog in preparation for an upcoming Japan trip in 2025 and so glad I did. Your content is so lush and thoughtfully considerate. Can't wait to see what's next. Love from Scotland 🏴
This "Summer in Japan" series has been such an enrichment to my summer. It is such a joy to see and experience Japan through your vlogs, so thank you so much Sam and Victor 🎐🍃✨
My husband and I were on the fence about visiting Nagoya but you’ve definitely helped push us more towards visiting it now. Too cute. Can’t wait for the heat.
Thank you for making these relaxing videos! I love having them on the TV while I write. Really makes me want to get better at filming, your editing, music choices and colour grading are all incredible!
so glad your video came in time! heading to nagoya in 2 months but had absolutely no idea how to plan my itinerary. thanks for showing so many cool places!
I have been following you guys for a while now, and you guys really inspires me ❤ Please make a video about living nomadic in Japan after this. Would love to know how does it feel, the obstacles, tips and tricks, the expenses, how to survive, etc.
It's so wonderful seeing people enjoy Nagoya so much! I lived there for a year and it always bums me out when people skip over it. I'm glad you all had a great time!!
So glad to see such beautiful content on Nagoya! I lived for 5 years before moving to Osaka but I miss Nagoya so much. I lived in Osu so seeing your Osu videos brought back great memories. You hit a lot of the major spots (I'm quite impressed you knew about the Buddha glasses it's quite niche to Aichi!) but next time you must hit: Kakuozan, Higashibetsuin and their morning farmers, craft, and food truck market, and strolling through Tsuruma park. If you're a visitor it's definitely worth it to see Atsuta Jingu and the neighbouring Shirotori garden!! Then for day trips Okazaki is a fun one, Toyokawa Inari (sister shrine to Fushimi Inari in Kyoto, apparently!), and Inuyama are musts! Also out of all of the cute towns Gujo is my favourite so you absolutely must go back~! They have the most famous Bon Odori matsuri in Aichi and the rivers are amazing to walk through in the summer!!
If you are visiting Nagoya, I recommend visiting Inuyama Castle over Nagoya Castle. Nagoya Castle was destroyed in World War II, so the current structure is a reconstructed concrete model. On the other hand, Inuyama Castle retains its original architecture, and with a river flowing nearby, the scenery is exceptionally beautiful.
Your videography skills are impressive. This cozy video really drew me into your story about Nagoya. Your trip to Nagoya looks like it was both fun and relaxing. I especially liked the elephant café you visited.
I don't usually comment but I am pretty blown away by the quality of this video. Fantastic job with the shots, the editing, and even the music! Instant subscribe from me.
YEEESSSS!!! I knew in my gut that your 'weekend away' would be to Takayama! Love it, I've been twice. Those two Showa museums! Such fun. Takayama and Shirakawago are the most wonderful places to tack onto a Tokyo or Kyoto based itinerary if you want to experience the beauty of the Japanese countryside. I absolutely loved this one guys, surprise surprise! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
@@SamandVictor The second Showa museum wasn't open the first time I went with a friend; I wanted to go with my husband as I know he'd love Takayama and Shirakawago too so we booked a trip together. Lo and behold, another cool museum had opened. Nothing stays the same in Japan, and yet the place does stay the same in all the important ways. That's what I love. Gujo Hachiman is on my longer bucket list but it's a pain in the butt to get to from both Kyoto and Tokyo despite not being far from either (when you look at direction 'as the crow flies' on a map). Deceptive due to the mountainous region you travel through. Love your channel and REALLY hope you'll visit Ishigaki next. LOOOOOVE to see what you do, see and eat there.
Another interesting video😃Winter at Shirakawago would be captivating. You may consider this rural village Ainokura on the way to Shirakwago next time. Have a good week ahead.
This so interesting to see what other people do while travelling to same cities😊 I’ve been to Nagoya over dozen times, i mainly go there to meet friends or concerts/events so i skip on touristy sightseeing😅 This vlog motivates me to go smaller cities nearby, although as you pointed out lots of sight seeing spots close pretty early. Also for some reason Nagoya castle has been closed for renovations a lot throughout the years.. P.S. Hitsumabushi is definitely a must!❤
Since you've been around Japan multiple times, what's your favorite place aside from Tokyo or Osaka? I'm planning my 4th trip to Japan solo and would love to travel like you both! ☺️
I discovered your channel last year when I was searching for cafés in the Tokyo area and now I just can't get enough of your content. Your videos are just so aesthetic and calming. Thank you for filming all of your travels and sharing them with us! I already put so many new cafés and restaurants on my "want to go"-list because of you hahaha P.S. Did you know that you can go on the rooftop of Oasis 21? It's even open early in the evening when it's already dark because it lights up. You can walk around the water basin or sit down on a bench and enjoy the view. P.P.S My favorite café in Nagoya is the "Double Tall Cafe BEANS" right next to the Nana-chan doll. They serve the best ogura toast in my opinion!
Hi, love your videos! I get a lot of inspo from you as I like to travel to Japan too. May I please ask where you got the Nagoya train announcement key chain from? Thanks! :)
Hi @SamandVictor How’s your driving experience in Japan? Do you find it challenging or stressful as most signs aren’t in English? Do you mainly rely on Google Maps? And how is parking-do you find it easy and convenient?
I wouldn't waste my money on those gachapon capsule toys cause I know they'll sit in a box or shelf to collect dust, and I'll lose interest over cheap collectibles pretty fast 😁
Really enjoy watching your content. Just out of curiosity which Fuji camera (and film simulation) and lenses do you use? Didn’t see the gears listed on your Amazon link.

I love the retro style of the Kissa Zoumeshi cafe - the song you guys paired with it fit perfectly. I really enjoy watching you guys videos !
Such a pleasure traveling with you guys! Fond, sweet and fun memories 😊 A BIG THANK YOU with love ❤
Japan has the prettiest manhole covers I have ever seen!!
amen to that !!

Every Sunday morning …. With my morning yoga …. This is a must now …. The perfect way to start a Sunday and end a weekend …. Love u guys
an HOUR LONG VIDEO? HOLY - I just found this channel and wow I am hooked. The intro was very creative too :) Makes me miss my time in Japan
Thank you!

Hey guys! Watching from London 😊 love your videos, I lived in Japan for 9 years and your videos transport me in time to when I lived there!
That’s awesome! 🎉

Thank you for the long Japan videos, what a treat!

MAgic, as always. I went to Takayama, you brought nostalgia to me
I love that you are getting to fully experience summer in Japan ❤
welcome to NAGOYA！
名古屋に住んでいる者です。改めて名古屋の魅力に気づかせてくれて、ありがとうございます😊 thank you❤
I have to say that your editing are improving all the time! I love the little touches with the progress bar in the intro.
I love your vids but how do you afford to go japan like I swear like every other week, are y’all like digital nomads or something 😭
Wow 1D song vibes in the car haha
Summer nostalgia
Trust me when I say that you showing us capsule toys is way less boring than the long drawn out shots of cafes. More capsule please 🙏🏻
Watching from traveling in Kyoto ! Will be in Nagoya in 2 days hopefully!! This video perfect timing ❤
Siphon Coffee shop looks amazing!! We're hoping to be in Nagoya in November. Thanks for taking us along with you on your trip!
Hope you enjoy it!
@@SamandVictor thank you!!
I want all the cute little things from the Miffy Shop ! Thank you for showing them to us ! And the Peanuts ! I collect Peanuts bags !
May your adventure in Japan continue indefinitely.

hi i am nagoya-based hk people!so weird to see your vlog in nagoya 😂 always enjoy your beautiful camera work🫶🏻cant wait for your next vlog
Love the fruit crepe cake at Harbs too! Enjoyed watching your vlog always❤
I didn’t know there are so many cool places and things to do in Nagoya. Another great vlog, Sam & Victor! 😀
Another interesting video😃Winter at Shirakawago would be captivating. You may consider this rural village Ainokura on the way to Shirakwago next time. Have a good week ahead.
Wow just googled it and saved it to my list. Thanks for the tip!
thank you for taking some pictures my home town~and i live here now!:)
welcome to Gifu prefecture! Gifu is amazing deep cultural place, I recommend going to Gujo and dancing all night at the Gujo Festival.
wahh the intro was so cute, love the nagoya gacha toy :)
Your vlogs are so beautiful ❤ its like being there with you
yay :)
I am happy that Snoopy and Wish Dragon are inside the same souvenir shop 🌲
The way I clicked so fast when the vlog came out! Finally Takayama + Shirakawa-go, one of my most favourite places in Japan!!
I wish we could stay overnight but didn’t plan it well 🥹 need to go back for sure!
i really love this video!
Had a chat with a founder staff from Blue Bottle yesterday and we chuckled at how retro cafes are springing up in Nagoya.
Thank you so much for all the great vlogs!!!! Greetings From Vienna!
Thank you for visiting my hometown Nagoya:) our city is being said one of the boring cities, but your video makes my city very attractive ❤

P.S. Hitsumabushi is definitely a must!❤
You should definitely stay in Takayama for a few days or go up further to Toyama and Kanazawa. Rural Japan is the best esp during Autumn 🍂🍁
Beautiful! We loved Nagoya! love from Shanghai ❤
How I relax after work: Sam and Victor on Mondays and Tosh Show on Tuesdays. Unusual combo?

Loved the whole vlog - I would probably claim a seat at the bonsai cafe and basically just move in. 😆 🎍
that cafe was a vibe!
I can’t wait to visit Nagoya ❤️
Gifu is absolutely mind-boggling in terms of beauty.
yessss!!
Twin flames ❤🎉
Your channel is amazing! After some videos, we wanted to take the first flight and start to enjoy the day in Japan or maybe Hong Kong!
OMG! Did you hear my whisper on your UA-cam account? I just wished that you two would make a Nagoya tour vlog and bam! THANK YOU!!
im gonna miss this weekly monday japan vlogs for damn sure :')
Same 😂😂😂
I was first to like, even though I haven’t seen the video yet, your videos are always liked!
HAHAH thank you- we hope you enjoy it after!
Takayama is so beautiful during winter, I spent 4 days there but it wasnt enough! Hoping to return soon.
I would happily watch a series on your gachapon collection!
I just started watching these and they are amazing! So relaxing to watch. Victor I need to know where you buy your clothes. 😄
The food looks so good!😋
Wonder How ‘s different from Tokyo and Nagoya
What another wonderful video xx
Thank you for this great video. My wife and I have a comment: when you don't wear the jean skirt, you look so elegant. can wait for next.
Welcome to the Tokai region where Nagoya is located. I'm watching from the neighboring prefecture of Mie. I'm glad you're enjoying Japan.
finally!!! i was waiting desperately 🫶🏼🫶🏼

hahaha I had no idea anyone would be interested in that! But I’ll def include more clips and a shopping haul of all the gashapon I got 😂
love your videos, can I ask what font style you use for your thumbnails?? They are so nice
Sam! Which bag did you use for this trip? I loved that it went with all your outfits
Standoil!
The way Victor said, “big Buddha” 🤣
Hi Sam, Victoria, how do you hire a Uber for your trip to shirakawa-go & takayama? May I know how much does it cost? Thanks.
You had such good luck with the gachas. We never get what we want. 😂
The bookstore reminds me of the library at Yale
