Trying a Classy Overnight Ferry in Japan | Nagoya to Sendai

- čas přidán 5. 02. 2022
- Taiheiyo Ferry operates three different ships (Kitakami, Ishikari and Kiso)
I have tried Kitakami's First Class Cross Twin.
• Trying a Unique First ...
It was unique
I have tried Ishikari's Semi Suite
Part 1
• Unexpected Semi Suite ...
Part 2
• Taking a Ferry in Japa...
It had a nice bathroom
Thanks for watching
You do such a great job at doing these videos. You take your time, explain things well, and have English titles + $$ conversions. It isn't necessary but truly appreciated. You do a great job always at taking is along on your trips 😁👍💜
It is necessary to see price conversions into USD. Thank you and please continue to do it, as I convert USD into AUSTRALIAN $$$, which is brilliant.
but these particular food choices (all four meals) were VERY carbohydrate heavy, not much in the way of fruits or vegetables
@@CearaRed And?
Agree, at least a current idea, with places.
Every time you board a ferry, I immediately start hearing 🎵 _”Sunflower, Sunflower”_ 🎶 😆
NOOOOOOO, no more Sunflower singing. Every time that I manage to forget someone starts singing it all over again. How do the employees even manage to work on that vessel ?
me too LOL.
LOL!
LOL!
A life time line to bring smiles
I'm serious, you could start another channel called "Solo Eating Japan". I'd be down for that. Food looks so good sometimes!
ROFL
my ever hungry fat ass agrees.
I’m actually working on it right now. Coming soon. (I’ll announce in this channel when it’s ready)
@@SoloTravelJapan yay! Love your videos! Thanks!
I always get hungry watching these videos. Japanese are obsessed with food.
It looks like the "Nothing" from dinner was most delicious ...
I want to know what it was supposed to be. Curry?
@@MilwaukeeWoman STJs addiction to Curry Rice is well documented in his videos ... I assume he just skips the rice now. 🙂
I laughed out loud when I saw the caption.
Japanese curry is delicious though, I buy the imported bouillon cubes to make it here in the UK.
I can see why youd say that from the look but i have no doubt that it was all bomb. Japanese food is no joke and if ifs not awesome, the fkn owner of the company will sit there and eat it.. not say a fkn word, and 2 days later the chef is scrubbing barnicles from the bottom of the boat Kashkomarimashta
@@eleridragon lmaooo that's funny considering curry was first imported to Japan from the UK
16:37 ...It would be amusing if that turned out to be Kuga, *also* filming the sunrise. :-)
😂😂😂
@@lilacscentedfushias1852 I mean with all the Japanese travel/food channels, I'd half-expect there to be a *few* crossovers...:-) I know at least some situations where one channel mentions being on a particular train/ferry, and other channels have been on the same one at some other time. :-)
Solo Travel is living life on the fancier side again and I am 100% intrigued as usual!
And I can’t help but think that you being so engrossed in the frog at 14:59 is extremely wholesome!
I think he goes out of his way not to film other people.
When Traveling, I always carry a neck pillow and Noise cancelling ear puds work great. Especially on flights with screaming children and people snoring.
My cat was relaxing next to me while I was watching this video, and she started sniffing the screen when you showed us the roast beef! Thank you for that cute moment, and keep up the awesome work!
We all know how you love beef curry 🍛! No need to be shy. 😊 Lovely video as always.
There is nothing to see here, please walk away 😄
It is always such a pleasure to come home from work, kick off my shoes and find a Solo Travel Japan video waiting to take me on a relaxing trip
Love it!
Cup of tea, blankets, the cat is on my lap, got a new video from Solo Travel Japan to watch... it's gonna be a good Sunday evening!
Being someone who snores very loud, I refuse to sleep on public transport since I get self conscious too much, but I imagine for people that need to travel they also might get a little like that, no sleeping on planes etc. For me haha
The video I watched before the notification for this video came thru, was about Sendai during the horrible earthquake and tsunami back in 2011. The footage was terrifying and pretty much wiped Sendai off the map. I paused your video while in Sendai and was glad to see how far it came back since that tragedy. I think it would be a great idea to visit some of the cities that were destroyed along the coast to show everybody what they look like now.
There's a video about those cities on Sorekara Melancholy's channel, just saying🌸
Check out Abroad in Japan, he's done a couple of videos on the Fukushima and Sendai areas after the tsunami.
I am sound sensitive also when it comes to other people's snoring. I have found carrying a case of foam earplugs REALLY HELPS in these situations. Always look forward to your next adventure, and was hoping maybe someday, you can take us with you down the buffet line! Would love to see all the options you get to pick from and how they differ from what I see here in USA. Beautiful ship, beautiful sunrise, beautiful you! Stay well my friend. Till we meet again. 😉🌅🧘🏽♀🙏🏽
I would take a small fan to plug in, gives white noise and helps with room stuffiness.
I am sound sensitive as well, but I can’t stand any earplugs or headset either...it’s a damn thing !
Food is looking amazing again today!
The sunrise was particularly gorgeous as well.
Although there are others that make similar videos, none of them have the same friendly quality as yours. You make me feel as if you are speaking to me personally, not to 167K others. Thank you for sharing your enjoyable and entertaining journeys.
I like how he says things like *lets* go inside.
Your stomach deserves a gold medal, my friend. WHERE do you fit all that food?? ❤️
Food looked super good, though I've heard troubling things about shark fin based foods.
There is imitation shark fin. Let's hope that's what it was.
It is only imitation shark fin. The real stuff is expensive and not for a 2100 yen buffet
@@ddnn974 Thank you for explaining that. 🐱
Came here to express the same concern. Shark fin is no bueno. Even if imitation, not sure why you would want to associate with that, even in name.
@@BrandonCerelius Cause they're delicious!
"Nothing" 😅
Always enjoy your videos. And I appreciate the English subtitles. Thank you 💕
You rode the same Ferry CDawgVA and Abroad in Japan rode when they rented the Royal Suite of the M.S Kiso!, its nice to see the other side of the boat for a change.
I thought the Ferry’s map looked familiar…
I am convinced that you are the sole person keeping all of the ferry rider amenities in business. There never seems to be anyone besides you on these lol
Solo Solo and Kuga from time to time 😉
Maybe its just fantastic filming when STJ takes the effort to wait till everyone is gone before taking the shots.
February is still off season for travelling in Japan.
Before the pandemic I always visited Japan during either January or February. Hotel rates are also low during this time.
@@wobblewobbles Maybe, but we saw someone else enjoying the sunrise.
If you watch some of his other videos, you'll see that there sometimes other passengers. But mostly truck drivers.
In the US, it’s weird to have salad, soup and pancakes for breakfast. However, I do like a good salad first thing in the morning. Love your videos. 🤗
You'll find salad for breakfast at all restaurants across East Asia. It is healthier and easier to digest in the morning than for dinner late evening.
Yeah, when I lived in Taiwan, I had to get used to salad offerings at breakfast.
4:13 I love Japanese beaded pillows. I was given one when I moved to Japan to sleep on. It seemed so bad at first, but then after nights of using it, it turned out to be really comfortable.
Love your videos! My parents and I watch your videos lunching, it's satisfying!
I have never clicked so fast, when the notification popped up! Love, love, love it!
I love how you head down the hallway, stop, and then doo a broad sweep of the camera to your waiting ferry room door, it's like a cinematic hallmark of yours. Makes me grin every time.
I wish you got a room. Would of loved that. Once again amazing job mate. 🇦🇺
These videos are the only time that I ever see the sunrise lol
Love your sense of humor. Pancakes looked like the ones served at McDonald's. Food always looks so good. Very nice. Thank you for sharing.
You're in Sendai too? Maybe all the solo travel channels can meet up there hahaha.
I miss you. You have sense of humor so that's why your story is very funny and made me very happy at this time.
I think that was supposed to be Kermit the frog hiding under the piano.
Whoa!...."Nothing" was Curry... my friend; your addiction is well known...(hope you enjoyed). The sunset was spectacular! Thanks
That beef looked perfect.
This is the ferry we took from Hokkaido to Sendai (which then continues back to Nagoya). We took the Ishikari from Sendai to Hokkaido, the Kiso is a nicer ferry, but both ferries had the same bad buffet. The Kiso looks even shakier tan it did when we road it. You can think of the ferry being a giant "Magic Fingers" massage bed. A little (or a lot) of beer will help you sleep. We drove from Sendai back to our home in Tokyo, passing by Fukushima. Along the highway are Geiger counter signs showing how much radiation was in the air. The numbers got higher as we got closer to the nuclear plant, and then went back down after we had passed it.
"Me vs wind. I won." You sure did. You got to see an incredibly beautiful sunrise.
Woah, sharkfin dumpling? That actually surprised me, didn't think many people are sharkfin.
Thank you for showing the western style eating utilities, that is the fork & spoon. Thank you for explaining everything.
What a beautiful sunrise
Another excellent production Solo Travel San (I hope this is not used incorectly) I'm enjoying the format of your videos and your whimisical annotations. Thank you, very, much...
Train travel in foreign countries and sea travel specially in Japan is one of my life goals. Most of the ships here in the Philippines are from Japan. The largest and fastest passenger ship is M/V Maligaya started operating only last 2020. I tried it last year. Want to try its sister ship Masagana too. They're formerly known as Yamato and Tsukushi. Thanks for these wonderful videos. 🙇♀️
You have the same sunrise addiction as my mom. Every summer during school break, she'd wake us all up to see the sunrise, then we'd go back home to sleep some more. 😄
I love the sunrise in every video they are so beautiful .
Thank you for sharing, I lived and worked in Japan for a short time, I would return in a heartbreat. For the time being I will travel with you.
It must have been too cold for the staff to wave goodbye to the ship, lol. Thanks again, great as always.
Either that, or not all ferry companies wave off their ships.
I love these ferry videos but that capsule wasn't much roomier than most. Still, I would like to take a ferry if I ever come to Japan.
I love these boat trips. There so cool. And you do such a good job on these videos. 👍😎⭐⭐⭐⭐
Apologies from those of us who snore. Main reason I no longer travel coach on overnight trains, I book a sleeper roomette.
The main reason I could never share a bedroom/ sleep in a dormitory style room is because I snore.
Second reason is because others snore.
Hello! Thank you for the nice and beautiful ferry trip. It look great! Enjoyed watching. Have a wonderful day 😊👏🏻👍🏻
it is good to see that the vibration of the ship does not affect your appetite at all... hahahaha
I can see you are a great eater. This makes my mouth water. I wish I can come to Japan one day and taste the wonderful food in different areas and different ships.
Wow - this almost looks like a cruise ship! This is MUCH nicer than a lot of the ferries that we have over here in the UK!
6:19 I thought that was Ganbare Goemon, and I got really really excited. Additionally, thanks for these videos. I enjoy getting to have somewhat a a virtual visit on these neat ships.
Wow. I like food 😅. You are my tour guide now
Can't get enough of these videos. Thanks for all the work you put into these, I just love them!
Roast Beef is the best? As an Englishman, I heartily agree!
Also, your utter devotion to the frog is sweet and endearing
The ship looks so beautiful and the food looks so delicious 🍱❤️😀 🚢
You just made my day much better…… Thank you for the trip.
Another great video. Loved the buffets and movie theater. The pork yakiiniku with rice looked delicious. As a Canadian i would have filled my entire plate .
I don’t know what exactly it is that makes your videos so enjoyable, but they are. Well done, and thank you. 😊
Love your videos, I watch them all. Love being on the sea and watching the sunrises and sunsets as well. I watch from Oklahoma in the U.S. keep up the great videos!!
and wenn i look always go hungry🤣
I really like the atmosphere your videos. They are so relaxing to watch. Great job!
You certainly ate well! With a cabin rather than a capsule, you can have a good mini-cruise experience on this ship.
"Nothing". lol
Hello from the US! I really enjoy your videos I watch them at night to help me wind down 😴 I like to see the types of foods you pick up I want to try beef curry!
I love everything about your videos. From the atmosphere to your thoughts in the captions, it's all so nice and calming. I have so much trouble focusing and these videos are some of the first to get me to just relax and watch.
You deserve a Royal Suite! You should get one next time :)
I loooove the food descriptions, the food is always my favorite part!
I love the calming familiarity of the routine in your videos, yet also the intriguing differences in each. What food will you eat this time? What will the sunset or sunrise look like? Will the mattress be hard?? I'm always to get a notification for a new video!
your appetite never fails to amaze! the food choices are surprisingly extensive, and unfamiliar to many of us so the food descriptions are appreciated. Thank you for braving the elements to capture that sunrise!
Thank you! I enjoy your videos SO much. It does look like you are on the ship alone.
Haha the "wait, shoot, the 100 yen coin!" before you put in the bill, so you got back only bills as change. Smart!
I love going with you on your travels. The main problem for me would be the capsules. (Claustrophobic). Also I need windows. Since I'm not really there, I'm OK with what you do. Thankyou for having me along. NC, USA
i always want to go to the arcades in these vids, and buy loads from the vending machines
I have never been to a ship ... Beautiful video, wonderful trip, thank you for sharing!
Your lunch meal was definitely shaken not stirred 😂 What was the „nothing“ soup/gravy thing? It obviously tasted good.
The carrier looked clean and neat. Ear plugs maybe on your next trip 😴
the nothing looked like curry
STJ has a tendency to eat beef curry, sometimes on ‘accident’, a LOT. So, I believe in this case they were attempting to gloss over yet another bowl of beef curry on a ferry trip 🤣
SJT you never disappoint with one of your videos. Thank you taking us along on another ferry ride, and for getting up early enough to see the sunrise. Absolutely spectacular.
You captured another stunning sunrise! Thanks for another great video!
You had me laughing at that "nothing" 😂
(Delicious curry)
Thank you for your videos, enjoy watching them.
I like the birds on the walls here.
Another great trip, this time with vibrating food!
They always look clean but never see anyone cleaning. Magic
Seems like a really nice ship, the theater, cafe, and relaxation areas seemed to have a nice look to them.
thank you for braving the wind and the spray to show us another gorgeous sunrise. epic!!
Always fun to watch
That sunrise was beautiful. The sea is beautiful also.
I always love watching your videos, I look forward to seeing your accommodation, the food, the sun rise or sun set and your sense of humour is great. It was a bit sad no one was in the theatre and when you went to the front I smiled and it reminded me of an awards ceremony/ acceptance speech. Only isn't it supposed to be the person who is receiving the award that says 'sorry I can't be with you tonight' and not the audience who can't or aren't there tonight!! 🎭
Enjoyed this amazing day with you very much. More journeys, please! Thank you! : )
Thank you for the videos I enjoy them and and sunsets
Very nice this ferry looked more like a luxury cruise liner than ferry ! Food looked tasty and bed looked comfy for sleeping....thank you for taking me along . I had a good time ! See you on the next adventure!
Yay! A new video! I’m enjoying your channel so much.
The sea looks so majestic 🌊🌊🌊
I really loved watching your travel videos....
I love these videos! They are so peaceful and relaxing. They also make me want to travel there!
Thanks for another awesome video.
I have sunrise addiction too. 😎
I am so happy for you getting to travel.
12:42 "Nothing" ...I love this channel. :)
I love your videos! I've had a stressful week and they're relaxing and fun! I enjoy your sense of humor!
