Trip of a lifetime, clearly! And exceptionally cool of you to 'bring us all along' … Thanks!
Thanks so much for this video! It is helping me figure out my TRC wishlist as I prep for my upcoming Japan trip!!!
Oh my! I’m so excited for you - Japan is always going to be an amazing trip! :) My wallet hates Japan though! Hahaha
I loved seeing all the great stuff you hauled on your trip. Thank you for sharing
Such a cool haul! ❣️✨
I loved seeing the stores. Thanks! ❤
Wooow! You got so many nice things!! It really looks like your new year of journalling will have many beautiful Traveller's products to inspire you! Your trip looks like it was really lovely!
Thank you for sharing your visit!
thank you so much for sharing your trip with us! it looks like you had an amazing time!! 💛
Thanks so much for watching, it was such a great experience to visit the Traveler’s Factories.
I was so excited for this video!! Great vlog + haul!! Thank you for sharing with us :)
Thank you for watching, I appreciate it!
The Traveler's Factory looks so cool and everything you got looks amazing.
Thanks Brittany, appreciate you being on this Japan journey with me!
Thank you so much for sharing! Everything is marked up so much when you're outside Japan, I wouldve taken advantage and bought a lot of stuff that I would have otherwise not been able to! I enjoyed watching your haul and listening to your experience and thought process of getting everything
Thanks for the lovely comment - when I was buying all the stuff, I felt guilty at the same time for buying so many. I would never get that many at one time at home and going to Japan and putting things in my cart - it felt like I was hoarding. Lol. But no, I am telling myself they are my treasures…
thanks for this video. I am going to Japan for the very first time in 2 weeks, so this will come in handy.
How exciting! You will have so fun there. Happy planning 🙂
I am so impressed how restrained you were. I would have bought so much more - I have no self control - I am impressed and so inspired - I am going to try hard to restrain myself and ask “Do I really need it?” Such a fantastic range of beautiful items. Your videos are always filled with such great excitement and I am soo happy and excited for you to have fun with all your new items. So many great tips. Thanks so much for sharing a great trip and all the tips!! Varsha
Thanks for the message! I’m surprised you are impressed with my self control because I almost had none! Lol. I felt like I couldn’t control my spending but I thought told myself that I will only buy things I will use and not just pretty things to look at. There were so many kawaii objects around and I’m glad I put the stuff back on the shelf!
I have a lot less self control. I am hoping to do better next year but I have bought so much this year, I will have enough of everything for next year 😂🙏🏽
Thank you for sharing your experience and the beautiful haul! When I asked for gift wrap at the Tokyo Station Traveler's Factory, they wrapped it with a brown leather tag, so I'm not sure why that might have changed. It must have been so cool to get the 2024 products in person, though!
Hey! Yes, I was over the moon to be able to pick up the 2024 releases in person. So surreal. Interesting that you received the leather tag with no question. They must have changed it now - I think I did see it as an add-on option. We will have to wait to see other vlog videos to see if that is the case going forward. I have a tag from years ago but lost it lol. Thanks for watching :)
you make it so exciting that I want to go now.
I went to the flagship store the end of August this year and got a leather tag on my wrapping! I watched so many haul videos leading up to our trip and people saying to ask for gift wrapping for all the little extras. I also went to the Tokyo station store and they were a bit funny when I asked them to wrap what I had purchased, maybe it’s just that store 🤷🏼♀️
The notebooks are very cute and they won’t go bad and will always be useful. No regrets!
Such a great and valid point! :)
Lovely video, i am time stamping here so i can finish it later. 11:54 I am bit busy preparing my defense for my Master’s Thesis
Hey thanks for watching my video! And all the best on your thesis!
Great video. Thanks for showing us your wonderful haul. Question. Which pocket Wi-Fi did you pickup and use while in Japan?
Thx for watching - we used Sakura mobile but there are many great ones at the airport. The main reason why we went with Sakura was so I could purchase it in advance before arriving. It did take a bit of time to locate the kiosk but they provide an envelop to drop the device into a mailbox so that was convenient upon departure.
I think you get a leather tag if you’re wrapping a cover. You don’t get one if it’s just inserts or accessories.
Ah, that makes complete sense.
Use your Washi tape, I just had to throw out rolls and rolls because the adhesive breaks down eventually 😢, nice haul!
Ooh no... Thx for the warning.
Hey. Great video. Never been to Japan but would love to and visit Travelers Company and Grand Seiko. Can you write on the Tea Infused Paper with fountain pens? Or is that only with ball point? Just want to know if paper bleeding happens on that paper. Keep up the great work. Just showed up on my feeds this first time.
Hey, thanks for your comment - I actually have yet to do a test on that tea infused paper. My gut tells me it most likely will bleed on certain inks. It feels very very textured. Perhaps I’ll do a test in a future video.
thank you for sharing the video.. made me really wanna go there😊. anyway, how much was the newspaper? coz i didnt find the price online...
The newspaper? You mean the Traveler's company newsletter? That one is complimentary 🙂
@@toxmot cool! Thanks 😊
The letter tags you get is if ther is a lether item ther is getting wrapped
Hii I saw somewhere that in order for you to recieve the tag on the gift wrap, you have to buy a leather item such as the cover
Interesting! That would make a lot of sense. Thx for sharing! 🙂
Yes I think it’s only if you purchase the leather items
I think if I ever go to Japan and visit the Travelers Factory stores, I have to come up with a wishlist and only buy those. Because I don’t want to buy so many things I won’t use. But that’s just wishful thinking lol. I’m sure when I’m actually there, I will be too excited and want to buy so many things.
Yes, I was sooo excited when I finally was there and I just wanted everything. Of course, in the end I picked up the stuff I think is my favourite and those that I “need” to take home with me. Also having a limited time there also helped I guess - the longer I’m there in the shop I think the more is going to go in my cart.
Lovely items! Thanks for sharing - I hope I can get over to Japan sometime. If I do, I know I'll want to hit all of the great stationery shops. :) BTW, the horn on that brass button is called a post horn. If you don't mind me nerding out for a minute, haha..the actual post horn does resemble a French horn, so you're right. :) A graphic symbol - a line drawing of a muted post horn - figures prominently in a novel by Thomas Pynchon - The Crying of Lot 49. That symbol looks more like a bugle to me than a post horn, but in the novel it is called a post horn. In this Wiki article you can see photos of actual post horns plus graphic images of them - including the Crying of Lot 49 "Trystero" symbol of a muted post horn. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post_horn
I totally enjoyed reading your nerd notes :) I had no idea that it was a post horn - I didn’t even know it existed. Thank you so much for the detailed explanation! The charm is even more cooler now after learning about it. Makes much more sense now. I think for us stationery lovers, it’s well worth a trip to visit the Mecca of stationery. There’s just too many things to see in Japan.
@@toxmot Japan is definitely the Mecca of stationery! Japanese stationery has changed my life, I'm not exaggerating. I've always been a journaler, and have been using fountain pens since about 1997, but I had no idea how much of a difference nice paper makes. I think I first heard about Tomoe River Paper from The Pen Habit's CZcams channel around 8-9 years ago.
@@arguchik How wonderful! I think I’d like to say the same about Japanese stationery. It just makes journaling that much more enjoyable! :) And wow, you’re definitely a dedicated fountain pen user!
4:31 is that April Wu (@penguinscreative)???
It might be haha!

Yeah, the Tokyo station store is a little hesitant to wrap purchases. I think it's coz they just get too much traffic.

Nice! Glad you were able to get it wrapped. I guess they might be cracking down on gifts to self 😂
