A Day in My Life: Tokyo, Japan
Vložit
- čas přidán 3. 03. 2019
- Majority of our videos are about travel and adventure, but not every day is like that. Our days are filled with cooking, doing chores in around our little home in Tokyo, and editing. So much editing!
In this video, Martina will give you a mini-tutorial on how she edits our CZcams videos, you'll get a slow cooker recipe from Simon, and despite Martina's struggles with her EDS (Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome) getting in the way of her day, she works to #buildaladder and overcome her sadness. HECK YES!

You’re a good man Simon! Both of you are awesome.
Thanks homie. I hope you’re doing well :)
Whaaaat Mikey!! I just drooled over your noodle video - loved when you guys collabed hope you get to just eat and talk with the adorable Simon and Martina - I’m still scared 😱 of that lady bringing endless 🍲
I love to see CZcamsrs supporting each other. Mike you are also one of my favorites.
Literally just watched your LA dry aged Korean BBQ video, and this was in the recommend list. First video I've seen, but they are so darn cute. XD
Mike Chen! Your videos cheer me up too!
*VOTE SIMON FOR THE MOST SUPPORTIVE HUSBAND OF THE CENTURY!*
I second this vote!!
Aww. I got emotional watching Simon take care of Martine because it reminds me of how my fiancee takes care of me :,D
Have to say, whenever my wife says at work that I cook, or made her breakfast, or even coffee, the girls at work go "wow, my guy doesn't do things like that". And I don't get it. She has her own issues and I don't think these things are big, but the bewilderment on some people's faces... Why is that?
i completely agree
"I love everything about you! ...except your taste in music and sometimes your clothing!"
*GLASS SHATTERING FX INTENSIFIES*
Still dying, 5th time thru XD (This is a good Ladder video for really bad mobility days, which I've had far too many of lately.)
I stopped watching the channel around the time you moved to Japan, because somehow the vibe didn't gel with me anymore. But I had this in my recommendations and I'm glad I clicked on it. You are such nice, positive people even when things are tough - I just genuinely wish you all the best!
I'm in the same boat! It's been forever since I watched them, but this is so lovely. I thoroughly love this.
Absolutely same. I really love them, this is a good one to come back to
Simon's like 30sec rant mocking those who measure their herbs is gold.
I'm like Simon.. I put shit tons of herbs in all my cooking.. :D
This pops into my head all the time when cooking. I’m like... how much should I put in...? And all of of a sudden I hear “hold-up Simon, you’re gunna over-herb it!” And I’m like “nah... I can’t over herb it...”😂
The way Simon made coffee for Martina just so she can start her day right was so caring. Also discount food is the best! It helps cut down on waste and tastes just a good!
How Simon calls Martina "my sweet girl " I almost died that's so stinking cute
I'm not gonna lie, I stopped watching for a while because the travel vlogs just wasn't what I was usually into, but the dynamic and Simon's bright positivity really reminds me of why I watched this channel to begin with. When Simon assured Martina that she was having an active recovery day I literally started crying. The support and drive to be the best person you can be is really inspiring. Gives me hope in the world honestly.
Looking forward to more content from you guys. Cheers.
I also literally started crying. It was a really beautiful moment I feel so honored we got to share with you guys.
This comment did not age well
they're literally divorced now i'm sorry wendy
I appreciate the HECK out of your editing, Martina!
Meeee tooooo!

I actually ran into Martina recently here in Tokyo and I gotta say I was nervous walking up and saying *hi* to her but she was extremely genuine and super down to earth and even tho I haven't ran into Simon yet I can tell he's just as genuine and awesome as Martina. Honestly, these are great people and through this video you can see how great their relationship is. I wish them nothing but the best for all their future endeavors :D
Martina’s a lot better of a talker than I am. She’s very affable.
Omg!! I met both of them at Studio Ghibli and Martina was crouching in the bushes idk why. LOLOLOL. I totally agree with you tho!!
A wild Martina appears!!!
“I do know she likes to wake up to the smell of coffee so I leave it right by her” AWEEEE MY HEART. 🥵🥰
I know righttttt
Honestly, I have such profound respect for husbands, boyfriends, just men in general who are supportive to their partners and are surprisingly so caring. People like my uncle who give such unconditional support to their wives. I’ve met so many abusive/toxic relationships and partners who were plain disgusting so thank you Simon for being such a great husband to Martina❤️Take care ✨
When he says " to impress the love of your life" my heart sank a bit... Simon and Martina were sort of a proof to me that you can have rough condition ( like Martina's) and have whatever happens a partner who loves you and that you can grow old with. I'm really sad to see I was wrong... it affects me more that it should
It hurts me too, as someone who feels like my mental conditions would be too much for any partner to deal with. Watching them as a younger person gave me a lot of hope for my own potential future with another. But, I also realize their life on camera wasn’t always the full picture. There are many things that could’ve gone in behind closed doors, for who knows how long. I believe they know they are doing what is best for them, and that they thrive in their new lives.
@@skylaralexis7699 May I ask where you got this information from? I had never heard of this! I only ask because I’ve tried to keep a neutral view on the both of them, not wanting to blame either for anything (that would be incredibly rude), and I still don’t want to. But I am curious as to what could’ve potentially caused it all.
@@sproutpuppy8216 also martinas insta king.kogi. you can clearly see what she follows :( makes very very sad how things turned out in the end
Their separation stung for me too as I often see their silliness as a reflection of myself and my significant other. But don't give up. If you want love you can have it. Be your true self, don't settle for anything or anyone that doesn't make you happy. Communicate your needs with each other, support each other and you will be fine!
Hello everyone! We've done three big travel videos lately. We wanted to show what a more chill day is like in our lives, just so you don't get the wrong impression :D
Simon and Martina thank you guys for all the content you put out. We know you guys put a lot of effort into creating it and despite how much I love your videos remember you guys need to take break sometimes. I think you guys talked about it already but there’s a huge issue with CZcamsrs becoming burnt out, and I’d hate for it to happen to you guys. Anyways thanks for the content as always.
Burnout is something we heard about as well, and even attended talks about with other Creators. We felt burnout in Korea. Our last year was rough. But we decided it's better to sell everything and start anew rather than give up altogether, and so we did. And, you know, we're feeling better than ever, both professional, and - more importantly - mentally :D
Yaaaay. Also note Simon if you hate finding bayleaves in your food they make little seasoning packets where you can shove all the seasonings in tie it up and then when the food is done, all ya gotta do is take the packet out. :) I think Amazon has them.
Wrong impression ? Sorry but can I say :I never get the wrong impression.Who said this to you ?
Very cool.
I also know the crap of chronic disease. (degenerative joint disease)
Simon you always rinse rice because it's not washed during packaging. It gets removes any debris (real reason) and broken up rice starch that will make you rice sticky (maybe).
My weekend involves watching old horror host shows like Ned the Dead, (posting old shows on You Tube. caution dad jokes) or Midnight Mausoleum.
Keep doing what you are doing I live vicariously through your adventures.
Thanks.
Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how strong Martina is? Instead of getting down on herself she changes her goals to make them more accessible instead of focusing on the negative sadness?
Simon is such a warm and caring spouse but Martina’s spirit is second to none 💖
I love Simon more than ever after this. Huge inspiration to me, as my wife has recently gotten so bad I've had to come out of work to look after her. You guys are our idols!
Hope you guys are doing ok 👍
My daughter was born in 2009, and while I was going through one of toughest times with postpartum depression, which didn’t seem to get better through the years I stumbled across your channel. I watched you guys religiously and....laughed...smiled...and felt joy. I even sent you guys a care package (it had some ranch Doritos, ranch, pac-man shirt, and a variety of other items) that I actually saw you open in one of your videos...I cried. At the time I didn’t know why I was crying, but in retrospect I think it made me feel truly appreciated and I was so happy I could bring some joy to someone’s life. 10 years later...I’m doing great and being busy raising 2 kids distracted me from YT, until today. I searched for you guys and it made me so happy to see that you’re still making amazing and fun videos! Thank you for everything you do and for the joy you brought into my life during a very difficult time. Please always know that you truly being so much joy to people’s lives...it may not always seem like it, but there are others
Out there that need your honesty, positivity and creativity.
When I was a teenager, I commented on a post of yours on Facebook saying that I wish I had a relationship like yours and you guys responded with positive feedback. Since then, I've found that guy, big and tall boi who cares about me a lot. He reminds me of Simon a whole lot, especially since he's the only guy who's ever been able to handle my mental illness.
Thank you guys for setting a really positive and healthy example of a relationship for me.
@@bewattayy5813 I have depression and anxiety, I've been diagnosed since I was a teen. Most guys I've dated didn't understand it and found it annoying.
Bunny Love yeah i see how thatd happen, i thought this girl was just really annoying and found out she has anxiety.
still an asshat, but hey out of her control
Bunny Love thanks for replying back 💗 I was just curious that’s all, I meant no harm.
@@bewattayy5813 You're totally fine!
I'm so happy for you!!!
Hi Simon and Martina! Several years ago I was on a flight back to Canada from South Korea. I was flying business class for the first time ever and I couldn’t believe my eyes when you two had the seats next to me and behind me. I awkwardly introduced myself as a fan of your content and you two were just as kind and genuine as you come across in your videos. I still remember that encounter each time I watch you guys and after such an honest look into your daily lives, I can’t help but post a comment telling you how much I enjoyed it. You are one of the few channels that remind me of why I fell in love with CZcams so many years ago and, for me, what this platform has always been about. Throughout your journey on here, thank you for always being such incredible role models and remaining such great, caring people. I will now be using my slow cooker more often :)
Ah! I remember that! It was quite a while ago :)
So well said, and what a great encounter you had! I would love to meet Simon and Martina, and this just further proves how awesome they are. So cool you have that memory :)
No matter what they will always forever be my favorite couple here on CZcams. 😢
This is depressing with the turn of events. ☹
Can everyone agree this is THE MOST WHOLESOME "Day in my life" video in the entirety of the internet??
Simon, you made me tear up. The way you care for Martina is absolutely amazing. You’re such a great husband.
Holy shit. Can I just say??? Simon, you beautiful man??? Honestly, that big reassurance talk that it's ok for Martina to take a break struck such a chord with me, I was speechless. The support was just amazing. It's something similar to what I tell myself when Uni gets stressful but actually hearing it come out of someone's mouth to their SO was just so different and beautiful.
Watching this now that they made it official that they separated just breaks my heart in half 😞
Im honestly going thru their old videos and just crying
@@peachiiriri is it just me but I think some videos are missing.
@@Gmrgrl-mb5np hmm i'm not sure.. I don't notice it but maybe beacuse only a few are missing?
@@peachiiriri Simon talking abt his tattoo abt Martina is unlisted
Simon is the perfect depiction of a man who is in love. Like love love. I respect that.
Simon is best duck.
This world needs more duckies
He's no duck, he's a straight dothraki
I'm only 14 mins in but I felt the need to stop and tell you.. when Simon put the coffee at the side of the bed because Martina likes to wake up to the smell of coffee well that just got me 😢 how wonderful is Simon!!! Everone needs a Simon in their life to love them ❤
Yuki Llama also everyone needs a Martina to edit in fart noises
Relationship goals アリ*:・(*-ω人)・:*ガト
My thought exactly
Maybe a thermo mug? So smell and warm coffee for wake up?! 😘
I miss this 😢 I miss them together and I miss them in Japan😭😭 ..I never comment alot on yt but I had to the feelings are so strong😭 ...
I forgot to mention last time how adorable Martina was saying I'VE DONE NOTHING! Then Meemers on her. So cute. I have had those days. Only with out the cat.
I just can't believe Simon. How can a person be that selfless. He is so supportive and loving, I've never met anyone like that in my entire life. Not even close. Made in Canada, yall.
Makes me cry to see how sweet and loving he is 😭😭
@@rinav64 Me too. He cheered her up so well when she was feeling depressed about not finishing her editing. He is a sweetheart.
Simon is also Polish - from wonderful Polish parents living in Canada😎😍😎😍🇵🇱
I wasn't always like this. I just met a woman who inspires me to no end :D
@@eatyourkimchi Wow, that makes you even more admirable. Both you and Martina are very lucky to have each other. You guys really give hope to us all.
What an intimate look into your daily lives. I can't believe how much pain Martina goes through everyday. She is such a strong woman, and even though things are hard for her she still keeps trying to push through it, that's a quality I admire.
Lydia Wilson I
I completely agree with you! My partner supports me as well and it makes my life so much better 💕 He's the absolute best!
I will say it short: finally some REAL stuff! So so so refreshing seeing a NORMAL life! CZcams needs more "Simon and Martina" channels! I don't know you guys but for me is enough of "perfection" .....enough of that "aesthetic"! Just enjoy the "normality"! Take care
I always tear up when I see how supportive and encouraging Simon is to Martina. Just warms up my heart. You two are the best and I hope to develop the type of selfless, generous, giving, supportive, positive, overflowing love you have for one another with my significant other as well. Thanks for spreading the love! You‘re both amazing.
Simon, you are a fine example of a man, a gentleman.
He's a fine example of a human being.
7:50 fine example of a can opener
WHEN SIMON WAS ENCOURAGING MARTINA I STARTED BALLING MY EYES OUT OMG
bawling*
SAME 😭
Simon is actually the most amazing husband i've ever seen wtf
@@miipmiipmiip it is sad because I am just like him (although quite shorter at 5 feet 8 inches) but people act like guys like us are like unicorns... I just do the stuff he does without even thinking and did for my wife even after a long shift... but she wouldn't a much younger guy it seems.. :P
Man, Simon just inspired the hell out of me. I'm usually so bent out of shape when other people slow me down, but seeing him so positive and supportive made me realize that attitude can give a better sense of accomplishment than just rushing around.
😭😭😭😭 the part where Simon cheers Martina up because she thinks she did nothing all day...ABSOLUTELY PRECIOUS. you guys are everything and more. Much love!!!
I know! ( ˘• ₃ • )ブウ so sweet
Truth. I want to capture that and play it to myself whenever I'm feeling that negative thought spiral start.
Is it weird I cried in this video? From the years I've watched yall this is just aJHBFKAKSJGN Simon is such a good husband and despite Martina's chronic illness she stays so strong and ggoD IM CRYING I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH I WASTED A WHOLE BOX OF TISSUES, DAMMIT jhakanKAEFJKNA best yt couple i'm cry
Me too 😢
just watching back old videos. i will surely treasure you guys' wonderful & loving moments 🤧
I forgot how much I like watching you guys, you guys are amazing
Y’all relationship is unbeatable. I know I’ve heard we only see what y’all want us to since it’s CZcams but like the foundation and mutual respect in this relationship is astounding! Thanks for showing us what it’s like to have some messed up shizz going on but being a true supporter of your significant other! It’s a beautiful thing to see!
well ok
Simon should have a book on how to support someone with chronic illness. as someone who suffers like Martina I would love if my significant other knew how to do what Simon does. WINNER. SIMON.
Trainer Deni Southern That would actually be amazing! Or maybe make videos about it... I think being the healthy partner must be as hard as being ill. I would make my husband watch them 😊
Split the book in half, two perspectives? Seeing how Simon handles one situation and then flip over to Martina to see how she feels about the same situation.
Yes omg
YESSSS!
I wish I could read this book because sometimes I just need to hear (read) things like this
I’m so sad 😞 I’m going to miss them together so sad they separated. To my knowledge that’s what it seems .
Watching this brings me hope that I’ll have a relationship like theirs one day. They both strive to bring each other joy or support each other when the other needs it. Thank you for letting us get a glimpse of your day. And thank you Martina for sharing your ups and downs along with how you pull yourself out of it. Truly a comfort even for those without a chronic illness but dealing with different obstacles. I’ve incorporated “building a ladder” in my thought process after seeing your first video talking about it. Keep up the amazing work! I love your videos, makes me want to travel to Japan!
Toxic masculinity-what? What is that? You'll forget that is even a thing when you watch this video. Bless you Simon, no idea how you were able to escape de whole thing, great parenting, good environment, awesome personality and luck? I have no idea but wish it was contagious, not even my husband that i love is free of some very brainwashed macho ideas sadly, wish me luck but you keep spreading your awesomeness 😅
I don’t know how I got out of it, either, because I grew up in a VERRRRY toxic masculine environment. Super homophobic, very rude to women. But I just respect Martina so much in so many ways that I couldn’t imagine being rude to her. She’s my inspiration.
Toxic masculinity is something Femanazis came up with so they can have "equality", a.k.a the power and wealth of men, the privilege of women, but the responsibility of neither. Asian are generally family oriented, and they respect their women very much. U'll never hear things like "Gurl, make me a sandwich, or get me some beer", because with that attitude, u'll die alone if u can't even get ur own beer.
@@jedigrandmaster1773 Asians have their version of patriarchal values at the expense of female empowerment. On the topic of toxic masculinity, one need to recognize and name the problem before rectification works can be made.
Ain't nothing wrong with domestic bliss. Travel and adventure are fun, but you can't do it all the time. In fact, that's what makes it and home life sweeter.
I came back to this because physically (of course we can never know mentally) was the healthiest Simon was. I hope he returns to this one day. Strength training is so important and now being 169lbs for a tall guy is devastating :( I also just really love this video so much
Dear Simon and Martina, I was directed to your channel by someone I know because I have EDS as well and they thought it would be nice to see how others cope with it since I don't know anyone else who goes to the daily struggles it comes with. Thank you so much for sharing things. I hope I can learn from you Martina although it is also a bit difficult to watch since it can be so confronting for me. I will keep watching your videos. These videos are also special for me since I lived in Tokyo and it makes me feel a little bit back at home.
Simon, you said you still don't know why you have to wash the rice before cooking :) it's to wash off the extra starch. That way although Japanese rice is sticky it will also be fluffy.
SIMON IS THE DUDE! Honestly it is such an awesome encouragement that people can come here and see Simon just do what is his thing but its just such an incredible example of what a humble man and husband is! Thank you for sharing your content with the world! You guys are such a blessing!
Actual goals. I love how they went in and encouraged more of their male viewers to help out more in what is usually viewed as a female’s job. Down with toxic masculinity!
@6 ! please don't.
@6 ! your comment has been proven a farce time and time again, you need help... ffs
LMAO. I've said the same thing to my husband about the new body. He said the same thing Simon did. You guys are a slightly younger version of us. Thanks for the build a ladder thing I've never thought of my health issues in that way. It really helps.
Simon is the perfect boyfriend/husband. It's not just the woman's job to do the housework... A healthy relationship should at the very least be 50/50. But from time to time it needs to be 60/40. Wake up early and start dinner. It doesn't have to always be fancy, just throw some stuff in a pot. Maybe when your partner is exhausted or feeling too depressed to even get out of bed, then throw some caffeine at them or cook them breakfast or just lay there and hold them. Love the positive vibe, love you both and wish you all the happiness in the world...
Simon, you are the SWEETEST! Martina is so, so, SOOOOOO lucky to have you! Not only that, I'd say that you two are so lucky to have found each other. I wish I can meet a Simon someday, too. Martina, give Simon loads of kisses (and braless hugs) from us! :P You go, girl!
I wish I had a Simon 😭😭😭 he’s so amazing to Martina. You two are couples goals 💕💕
I keep rewatching this 😢
I've been following you guys since 2012 or 2011, and I absolutely love your life. It's simple, real, loving, caring. You two are amazing
I love that Simon is so happy to help out with chores and go against "gender norms". That's really sweet :) Also, Martina, I love your video editing!
Hello Simon and Martina! (LONG COMMENT COMING, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!) I usually don't leave comments on your videos, not because I don't love you guys, but because I usually feel like nobody cares about what I have to say and it's a waste of time. However, I decided to comment on this video because I couldn't contain my happiness when I watched this video. You guys are so genuine and so real about Martinas EDS, your home (small but wonderful), and even Simon's stinky tuna/egg concoction that he despises! This is why I have been watching your videos for years and years. When I lived on my own for the first time, I had a TV but no DVD player or cable service....so I would steal my neighbor's wifi and plug my laptop into the tv via hdmi, and watch you guys everyday....all day. I cooked with Martina, watched anime recommendations, played Final Fantasy along with Simon and even bought many of the WTF items to try out myself. I hope this comment doesn't come across as creepy that I have basically had you in my life for longer than my current relationship, but you guys are a part of my own ladder. I suffer from depression, anxiety and a pain disorder. The pain is what really sends me into a dark place most days. Watching your videos has always brought me joy (even if the wonderful treasures were a bit weird or the treats I tried made me second guess my decision 🤢). I have come to a point in my life where so much is going well, but the pain makes me worry about losing it all. I own a home 🏠, have animals to look after🐾, a full time job and hobbies to occupy my free time. If I don't keep myself going, the pain makes me want to stay in bed all day.....everyday....and it sucks. Thank you guys for helping me build a ladder. Thank you for making me smile with any new uploads (youtube or otherwise). And thank you for being real about life! Not everything is sunshine and rainbows but finding joy in the little things is what makes life worth living :) Hugs from California! 🌎
P.s The first video of yours I ever watched involved coffee and a salad spinner 😅
You are definitely not creepy in any sense, dear. I remember watching Simon and Martina at 16 years old, during my 2nd year of my high school life. It was the "How to Eat Ramen Like Pro" video where, admittedly, I cringed watching them (because I just did not understand their jokes! Rewatching it causes me to have lots of laughs now). But I got to thank CZcams's recommendation for bringing myself to know this wonderful channel. They managed to change how I view the world to a more positive side. I remember the one video in Eat Your Sushi where they talked about snowstorm and perspectives. That became one of my life principle that I hold dearly now. Not to say how I love Martina and her patience despite her looks (says a lot about don't judge the book based on the cover. Behind that smile is a body that hurts so much...) and how I truly respect the love and affection Simon shows with his actions towards Martina (despite me getting a lil annoyed with his Cheater McCheaterson ways...)
I am glad that I managed to find these goofy guys. They are such inspirational human being.
Oh yeah, btw I am already going to graduate soon 😇
Thank you everyone for your likes on this comment! And thank you to Simon and Martina for making such a great community here :)
To think they're separated now. Life is strange like that.
Love this video. Thankyou to Simon especially to introducing me to the lofi hip hop channel, such awesome chilled music. It also makes me think of your lovely videos
martina is seriously SUCH a strong person! and simon is so understanding and supporting and that makes him such a good fit for her.
You two are seriously the cutest people on youtube. I really love how you motivate and support each other. Martina is the brightest little sunshine, even if it's incredibly tough and Simon is always there for her being so sweet and caring 🦆
I literally aspire to have this life. Just a simple, beautiful life with a loving partner (granted I know everyone has their complications) but you guys are so happy together and you get to do what you love for a living. I can’t wait for this 😭 also I LOVE Martina’s outfit thoooo
I just wanted to leave a comment thanking Martina for saying that it's acceptable to change daily goals. I've been diagnosed with depression for ten years now, and I've often been told that it's helpful to set little goals for yourself so you feel a sense of accomplishment. Which works - until I fail to meet my daily goal and become upset with my failure, and things spiral from there... But recently I've been trying to acknowledge that it's okay to change daily goals, it's a way to actively hunt for joy! And it's definitely been helping :D Thank you!
I love LOVE the way martina tells how she edits and potrays different emotions and moods. Editing and films are a huge passion to me personally, so seeing how she really thinks and puts effort into it is so inspirational!
Someone: "Perfect husbands don't exist!"
Simon: "HOLD MY BEER"
Toshi Hakari Simon would do it while holding the beer he would never ask someone to hold it for him
Hold my coffee, I gotta poop!
I KNOW RIGHT! With every video, he raises the bar for my future husband.
For real! Like I'm happy by myself but seeing Simon's love for Martina makes me what someone like that for myself!
Simon: "HOLD MY BEER!"
Martina: *holds the beer*
Simon: *holds Martina's face with both hands and kisses her whole face and shouts to someone* "MWAHAHA! What was that? I can't hear you over my perfect wife!"
( l o l)
I was like "OMG that purple onion looks so perfect... almost like a toy... is it because it's a Japanese onion?" and i found out that was just an onion-shaped container... Japanese so weird yet so cute😂
Another quiet morning in Ireland and I'm rewatching this video *again*. It helps motivate me and keeps things in perspective on the days I need to build a ladder.
That purple onion container fooled me! I was thinking "that's the most beautiful onion I've ever seen!"
Oh Simon it was so cool to see you talk about men doing things around the home! I have a chronic pain/chronic illness and my husband does a lot around here. Cooking is therapeutic to me and I’ve adapted methods of ease with cooking (love a crock pot & instantpot dinners) but he does the laundry, cleans, and does a lot of extra stuff when I get overwhelmed! Thank you for encouraging this kind of support! 😍
I swear these two have the kind of relationship I want with my soon to be wife. Utterly in love, completely supportive, talk things through rather than fight. Empathetic of eachothers needs, screw Romeo and Juliet, I want a relationship like Simon and Martina any day.
How does a day in a life video make me cry so much???? The love you have for each other is so pure and inspiring.
My husband has to commute to work an hour and a half one way. Every morning he lays on top of me and squooshes me and kisses me before he goes down stairs to do the rest of his morning because I don't have to wake up when he does. Just wanted to share the positivity of morning like y'all have.
I do the same for my husband and on days I have off he does the same
dawww
PLEASE HIT LIKE, I NEED MARTINA TO REALLY SEE THIS.
Oh i love you both, but jeez, Simon! Im so proud of you for helping Martina as much as you can, but mostly for helping her to not feel guilty about needing a recovery day. I once saw a little saying about Energy and output. Its hard to put into words. But basically, everybody is given 100 energy points per week, and if we have a big day, we are borrowing energy from another day and it needs to be paid back. And also something about the value of those energy points. Basically, it costs people with chronic illnesses twice (maybe more) of the energy points to do the same things. It really hit home with me as i was caring for my father who passed away from heart failure when he was 59. Never feel guilty for needing a recovery day. You are living your life with a condition that hurts, but you are still making the most of it despite the pain. 💪
Martinas advice to video editing got me an A- in my class . I love you Martina. You’re a big part of my heart
( you too Simon. You amazing strong man. You inspire me so much to keep on working out) ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I believe in love now
“I like to watch videos of houses I’ll never be able to afford” ME TOO, Simon! 🤣
Modern dating is so depressing. Sometimes it's easy to become cynical in this 'thank u next', swipe right disposable culture. It's actually so lovely (and needed) to see people really working at and loving each other so fully and working on improving each other and yourself (rather than shopping on apps for the next upgrade). You and Martina are so inspirational -- sounds cheesy but I mean it haha. You truly make each other's happiness your own 😊
totally agree
definitely agree😭😭
I Agree!!
bless your comment. I was like love like Simon's & Martina's has become so rare to see within the hook-up culture going on rn. This is why I love anime and manga because pure romance still exists in these stories. I do hope that there are people still out there looking for real love & human connection rather than in the sheets action 1-day into a relationship. The meaning of "love" is slowly fading away as people start with 'experimenting' only to end up more hurt than understanding what love is.
+++++++
This is honestly one of my favorite videos you guys have ever uploaded. My girlfriend has been suffering from chronic pain and watching Simon be there and supportive of Martina has been such an inspiration for how to help her. Then Martina explaining the concept of building a ladder and turning the night around. You guys are great and thank you for sharing this with us.
I'm watching this with tears streaming down my face 😭😢 i still wish them well but it's so sad that they split up
Same. Even though we were all suspecting, it’s such a shock to me that I can’t fully accept it yet.
Would just like to say I appreciate your openness with your personal struggles with chronic illness, and the mental toll that takes. A close family member recently had a psychosis break due to stress, and I feel like seeing how you two support each other has helped me to understand the resulting depression and struggle they are going through to recover.
This is the best relationship I have ever seen between 2 people EVER!!! Been subscribed for FOREVER and every video I always think about the the Greek mythology that humans used to have 2 heads and 4 arms and legs, and Zeus split them fearing them to be too powerful. I'm glad you two found each other. Stick it to Zeus!!! XD
Talking as someone who has hard days with EDS, Simon supporting Martina almost brought me to tears, He was so understanding and didn’t blame it on her but instead said “we did hard things, its ok” and then them going out made it even better because he supported her taking steps even when it was a slower day and she needed a little time to recover
The love you have for each other really comfort my heart! You're such an inspiration 😘
Damnnn so happy this video’s a long one!!!!! Let’s go team not skip all the ads!!!!!
I just love the way that Simon loves and takes care of Martina. ❤️
Thanks simon. I think you’re amazing for loving Martina like you do and encouraging her. You both deserve the world.
I have Crohns and fibromyalgia and am in constant pain. My husband is just like Simon and so helpful and supportive! I have two boys under 10 and they also understand and help me out. I’m so blessed but I totally feel the same way every day. Watching you gives me hope and new ideas of turning my depression around!
Absolutely love how u guys are supporting each other all these years and more than what we can see on the camera...❤️from a fan from Malaysia
Omg!! A fellow Nasty from Malaysia!! Hello!
@@momokun90 Bello!🙋🙋
My partner and I were introduced to y'all years ago because a friend said we reminded her of you two as a couple. I *swear* watching Simon is like watching my boo; down to browning the discount slow cooker beef so it's tastier for me, and making me coffee and leaving it on my nightstand because I'm so slow to get going in the mornings.
I have several lifelong, chronic illnesses as well, and I feel so dang lucky to have found my own "Simon." I don't know how I'd manage without him.
I come back to this video so often. It gives such comforting vibes. I love you both so much.
Thanks guys for being so real. I appreciate the joy you can bring to even hard days. You're one of the few You-tubers I can watch with my sister and you always make us smile. Have a great day!
I find that People, especially since the rising popularity of social Media, only care to share the exciting events in their lifes. The word "mundane" has a bad connotation that I can't get behind. Personally, I am much more in awe when I See the little things People do, i.e. incorporate in their daily routines to make a big difference. Like Simon working out, teaching the Cat little tricks or Martina pouring her soul into editing the Videos we love and deciding to go out when she's been holed up inside all day. These things are more relatable to me than a two weeks Trip to Barcelona. I enjoy watching these travel-logs, they are exciting and entertaining for sure. But they won't tug at my heart strings like this video where you just Talk about your everyday struggles. Going on an adventure is an exciting and wonderful ecperience, But as J.R.R. Tolkien taught us in the Lord of the Rings: Nothing beats coming home after a long journey and laughing with friends and family to tell the story.
Hehe I think you mean J. R. R. Tolkien :) I often confuse the two.
@@danielliex31793 Thank you for pointing that out. I'm pretty sure I was the victim of my ever so clever Spelling Correction. It's hard to teach a German Smartphone English words.
I want to be a simon when I grow up
I always find myself coming back to this video and rewatching it. There's something so normalising and calming about it. Thanks guys 😊
I’ve been watching y’all for a long time. Your energy and love are very healing ❤️
How to be a good husband 101
corrected: a GREAT husband
I remember those obnoxious, custom green/blue shoes Simon has. And that hoodie in the last scene with the cat face that Martina bought on G-Marker. I didn't realise how much time has passed. And now I'm an adult... It's amazing go see how far you guys have come as well. Let's grow more together ❤
Hey Simon and Martina,
So I've been watching you guys off and on for two years now. I found you when I started seriously considering moving to Japan in my mid- to late twenties and I saw your Coco curry video and was instantly hooked. I grew up in Japan from four to eight years old and I always felt connected to the food more than anything else because you can't go many places as an eight year old but you remember the hole in the wall ramen shop you used to go to. I haven't commented before because I tend to listen to you guys like a podcast because you sound like people i'd get along with and have such positive personalities that listening to you guys makes me smile. I know you guys get a lot of comments and messages and I just wanted to say that I really appreciate your videos and content. I've been going back and watching old TLDRs and your other videos from when you were in Korea. It's fun to see how much you guys have changed and grown over the past 10 years. I'm currently planning and saving for moving to Japan for a few years when I turn 27 (Currently turning 25 in May) so I have more time. Listening to your podcast about mini villages made me feel so much better about feeling alone when I do eventually move to Japan, I have a survival level language proficiency but I want to at least be able to pass the N5 test before I go. This is a pretty long message lol but I guess I just wanted to say thank you for being yourselves and being role modes for people who want to be authentically themselves as well. I'll try and comment more often, because I'm sure I've watched more of your Japan videos at least three times each at this point. Happy Monday! Best, Tia
