    NOTIFICATION SQUAD: I still literally have no idea what Uncle Sandal is?! But come on, you know I had the best photo 😎
    And so begins our new Journey Across Japan! This time to Okinawa for three awesome episodes introducing the food, the places and the people. A special thanks to Chiaki for letting us into her home to eat food both delicious and horrific. (APOLOGIES for the delay on the release guys I had some copyright issues with the video).

    Chris, I don't watch as much as I used to, but I have to say thank you.
    Because of your videos I came to Japan on the JET programme, have lived here for 5 years, met my wife and lived in the most amazing town/village in Aomori (your videos inspired me to put all Tohoku prefectures down on my application, and I've fallen in love with the people, nature and culture). I had no interest in Japan before seeing your videos, and honestly its almost painfully nostalgic to watch your early videos. They remind me of a History masters student looking for an adventure in the UK and finding out about a place called Hachinohe. Thanks to those videos, that city has been my life for 5 years and I'm currently renovating my small, run down old school's garden as a thank you present to everyone here.
    You gave Tohoku an english speaking voice and we are all proud and happy for you, what a great 10 years.

So I watched it and there i knew apartments don't have bedrooms but what was interesting is how this bloke makes it fun to narrate the story living there by just complaining. Then I got busy, graduated, it's was 2016 and somehow wondered if that guy from 4yrs ago still lives and make videos about Japan. Found out he still did and started following him for a year, the guy went rampage on uploading in 2016. So I sticked till to this day, surprisingly I never got tired from the complaining.

      That's what I was thinking as well. Whenever you see a millionaire/billionaire on a yacht they always look so out of place. You can immediately tell: Oh yeah this guy made a fortune on the stock market or some boring shit like that. It's never the well trained perfectly groomed greek sculpture of a man in a banana hammock, it's some pudgy pasty balding guy in bermuda shorts.
