That feeling of happiness when you come back "home" to the place you feel alive and safe and happy is an incredible feeling, isn't it? I get it when I return to Japan as well from a business trip even after 16 years or so of living here. おかえり〜！
Yes it’s the most amazing feeling :)
@Cold German Beer And so is your tasteless comment.
@Cold German Beer Just leave. You are toxic, rude and ignorant. nobody asked you to be here
hmmm,... I have to live here permanently in a few years,... I can't really agree with you,... it's an ok country (some things are actually kind of nice) but aspects of suburban life are mind-numbingly depressing,...
Her voice IS so soothing isn't it? It relaxes me just as much as my lavender tea haha 😂!! Love her videos!!
She sounds so real, so happy, and sometimes it feels like she's about to shed a tear.
Yes very sincere, real, and intriguing ❤️
@Club Soda Her creative juices are flowing.
Watching you...makes me feel so at peace...maybe it's your happy go lucky soothing voice...keep up the great videos sweetie
I was in Japan for 4 yrs and I had that same reverse culture shock. I remember my flight out was at Narita; I had gotten used to Japan so nothing really stuck out to me until I landed in D.C. and it was almost like landing in a 3rd world country. Narita was crowded but so well organized, the long lines at security and check in ran really smoothly. I landed in D.C. and it was like night and day, everything felt chaotic, disorganized, people screaming. Watching your videos makes me want to go back to Japan.
Omg!!! Japan airports are seriously the least stressful thing!!!
That’s true. Airports in the US are pretty shitty compared to Japanese airports.
I love how you can chill and have a beer at Narita airport in other countries you're only allowed to drink alcohol inside designated areas but in Narita airport you're able to drink in the waiting areas if you want to and relax everyone respects each other I miss Japan
it is my dream to travel to and possibly live in Japan for a while in my life. i'm in my early 30s so i hope i can get to do it soon! i'm so glad you are sharing your experiences and I appreciate the real face of Japan, not just the glimmering polished touristy side, but the every day life struggles.
Hang in there mate, it'll happen!
Hope your dream one day become a reality.
Girl, it is so easy to relate to you sometimes. Keep up awesome work! I love seeing bits of the Japanese life! 😍❤️
I'm glad to have found this channel. You've poured your heart and soul into truly understanding and appreciating another country's culture. It's so beautiful that I'm lost for words. Hope to watch you grow and inspire on this journey.
Always love watching your honest and creative video. It is so real and so well done. I am a Japanese dude living in LA and whenever I watch your video it reminds me of the beauty of Japan and how blessed I was growing up there. Pls keep up with the great work and have a wonderful year ahead!!!
That’s amazing! My boyfriend is Japanese and loves there too :)
LoveLyzKelly oh wow! What a coincidence! Last year when I went back to Tokyo for vacation I had a reverse cultural shock which was definitely a bitter sweet so I see where you’re coming from. If possible can you do a piece on Japanese comedy? I always wondered how Americans see Japanese owarai and why it does not translate :-)
@@studio500 As a Canadian living in Japan I would also love to explore the topic of our differences in humour! It really doesn't translate to me (sometimes people show me clips and I watch and think, I don't understand why this is funny). I think sometimes my humour doesn't translate either so I sometimes hesitate to joke around with my Japanese friends the same way I do with other foreigner friends.
Christie-Anne Dear Yay! Glad you resonated with this topic! Japanese comedy is twisted in many layers so it is much more complex but I would love to see foreigners laugh watching Japanese comedy one day!!
I went to Japan for the first time this summer and ever since I’ve had this longing to go back! You’re right. Pictures and videos don’t do justice of how beautiful Japan is. So happy I found your channel 💕
I love your vlogs they fill me with happiness, my dream is to get to live in Japan and speak japanese fluently as much as I can. You are constantly my inspiration and I wish someday I could be able to live like you do and maybe meet you. I wish u all best and I can't wait for a new video!
-a lot of love from Serbia
I love hearing that I’m inspiring that is what I want my platform to be
I just want to say thank you for inspiring me to do what i want the most, wich is live abroad in another country, your videos are so well made and they have that sparkle that makes you wanna get out and work on your dreams.
I’m so glad I can inspire you ☺️
Fell in love with your videos. I love how beautiful your mind is❤ Going to visit Japan nxt month for the first time ever and Im travelling alone and watching your videos gave me so much strenth to not be scared being alone. A step to become independent❤
I can really tell you’ve figure out your happiness in this video. I’m here to stay! On your channel that is. ❤️❤️ I plan on movie to Japan too so your videos is a MUST!
You are a constant inspiration to me and your resolution and integrity is so encouraging and admirable! I have so many questions for you it's crazy! Thank you for your amazing content, the Girl Abroad series especially has inspired me to visit and hopefully join the JET program in the future, plus your honesty and enthusiasm for your art and content is so inspiring. Thanks again for being so honest and genuine! Love from a huge fan of your work x
I do love watching your videos as they always open my eyes to things and inspire me to aspire xx
I'm currently in the first rocky stages of a new job and watching and listening about your experiences and how you choose to push forward and power thru really resonates to me. Sometimes you go thru those little life bumps and its just nice to vent and to know that other ppl are going thru the same exact thing and that its perfectly normal. Like you, I enjoy alot of alone time and that sometimes becomes a double edged sword that pricks you every now and then when the tough times come. You inspire me to keep on keeping on and I thank you for that.
Your content is so beautiful. My aunt & uncle traveled to Japan in 1980/81 and my grandmother kept all her amazing letters, so alive and full of descriptive beauty of the places she visited. I have wanted to go to Japan ever since I inherited those letters. Your videos feel to me like what my aunt (about your age back then) described in her letters. Another beautiful video, Kelly! I hope one day to go to Japan, too. 💗
It really hit me when you were talking about your struggles and learning more about yourself everyday, turning negatives into positives. I really enjoy the positive message and vibes I get from your videos Kelly! That positivity is why I subscribed and I hope you continue to succeed and do more! Thank You!
Your video is so inspiring I really admire your positive attitude, experiencing and adapting Japan as your home. Thank you Kelly so much for your video.
Thanks for watching ☺️
Your strong! And inspiring! Glad to see you got back home. Life will be what you want! Strengthen your vision and seek happinesses!
Nice to know that u have totally recovered from ur illness....as u just returned from ur family, u r looking very much happy and refreshed....keep it up🖒🖒🖒
It’s so refreshing to see how rejuvenated you are with passion and love for Japan! You’re a joy to watch. Welcome home!
You make some amazingly well-crafted videos to tell your story. Hope you continue to develop your editing skills.
I'm glad you're feeling better and are super happy!!
I love how peaceful your videos are. They are good to just have on. Thank you so much for making them😀
This is the happiest and most positive vlog I have seen this year. So glad that you are living your dream in Japan. Positive energy is so contagious, and this upload makes me very happy. By the way, I have never ever seen "dashi" vending machine in my entire life (that is different, to say the least). So glad that I quite fortuitously discovered your channel. Happy New Year!
You really encourages me. Love what you are experiencing, it is such a blessing. Keep it up!
Ooooh im so happy for you Kelly!!!!
I'm just so proud of you Kelly!!
I love the way you stuck and fought it out!!
I just love how you're working hard on yourself and your dreams! It's really inspiring :)
9:10 the little handshake between the waiters in the background is so cute 🤣
Congrats on 100k subs! I found your channel around a month ago and it's been great watching not just the positivity but also 'real life' in your videos. Keep it up! You got this!
Love your channel, thank you for showing us the beautiful country.
Loved the Instagram stream! That was super fun. Can't wait until the next one. Glad to see you back in Japan. :)
I'm currently in hospital post surgery, and I know that even after I get out, it's gonna be a long journey of aftercare before I'm able to visit japan, so I'm studying the language in the meantime and your videos are always a wonderful showcase of the beautiful places that seem to exist all over xx
Noitibmar speedy recovery!
Kelly, your videos make me homesick for Japan!
I watch because it's 15 minutes I get to escape to Japan and relive my own life there. But when the video is over I always feel such sad nostalgia
Cant wait for these videos !!!
ILY girl, you're a huge inspiration for me! People always talk and you're there, living your dream and this is just amazing. Keep being awesome, love from Germany!
I love your channel! So inspiring! Your videos are all I watch at night when I’m supposed to be sleeping...
I lived in Vienna for 5 months and the language barrier really got to me sometimes. But each day I learned something new. It was just the most amazing experience. Japan is a place I really want to see and thankyou for sharing the beauty of it. Happy new year!
Great video and welcome back to Japan! It's always nice to see people who are living their dreams! Hang in there, Kelly and keep on vloggin' !
Loved this! Look forward to your next one!
I'm so glad you're feeling better now too 💖💖
I am and once I felt better my computer broke 😆
Love watching your videos. Thank you for sharing your life experiences.
I just really enjoy watching all these vlogs, the narration is immaculate! I'm sorry to hear about what happened to your laptop btw
I’m Japanese. Thank you for making such a brilliant video!!!
Omg. I enjoy this video a lot. They put me in a peaceful and good mood. Thanks
It's nice to see you back in Japan and bringing us to these beautiful places and showing us such pretty scenery. I'm really glad you're doing so well now, feeling full of creative energy and are so happy being back in Japan. The tea house in Kosoan looked so peaceful and picturesque with the beautiful garden and the way everything was arranged and decorated inside. I'm really looking forward to watching your next videos. I'm very interested to hear about how you are able to take certain negative aspects and turn them into positive ones, also how you decided to stay in Japan most definitely. This was a really sweet video. All the best👍❤🇯🇵
So nice to see you recharged and ready to tackle the next challenge!
I’ve never clicked on a video so fast before 😅
I’m actually really excited to visit Japan for the first time ever, I’m leaving next week 😭
Enjoy^^ I'm going for the first time this summer :)
I'm going for the first time in may!!
Ein The Corgi Welcome❤️ been here for a month, its worth it
@@allyssametcalf671 we are going in May too 😊
My husband and I went there this past fall for our honeymoon and can’t wait to go back. You’re going to love it!
これからも応援してますよ〜！👍🏻
omg your narrative is so poetic i adore these videos!!!
How you feel makes complete sense! I had pneumonia once in college and felt so alive after recovering three weeks later! It definitely makes you want to get out of the house and get moving again!
Your joy makes me want to cry happy tears! Some of your earlier videos have a very melancholic energy, but this is your true self and I love it so much.
I love your videos!! I miss Japan so much after living there a combination of 8 years! There is no place like it. If I ever get to go back, I am never going to leave and appreciate it even more!!! I hope you do more videos there!!
So looking forward to your next video!
I'm impressed by your vast knowledge (history) of places you went.
and how you narrated is like lots of emotions
Loved loved loved this video. Seeing you so happy made me smile so big. Have a great weekend. 🤩🤩
I loved the scenes of gentle music with super quiet talking. It caught the atmosphere of the cafe perfectly.
Hi Kelly I just discovered this series about a week ago and I'm so glad I was able to catch up for this new episode! I really enjoy the format in which you present your daily life throughout Japan and it's something that you don't see on any other channels. I'll be excited to watch each and every one of your new videos!
Found your channel a couple of weeks ago and I've really been enjoying your content. A great mix of culture and adventure, your happiness was shining throughout this one. You have a lovely smile! Wishing you all the success for the future. Stay strong.
Thank you so much :) it’s because of you all that keeps me going
I think you really were coming to a turning point. You were sick, went home and came back far better. Your energy is much better...and hopefully you are in a good place now.
Love your content. Enjoy your life.. I know now you won't take it for granted...Which im glad to see.
Be well. Focus on your health; alot has to do with what you eat.
Blessings🌸🍃
I’m flying to japan tomorrow and watching you being so genuinely happy makes me so exited for my stay there! Thank you!
just found your channel! i really appreciate you sharing your ups and downs as a young adult. i really relate and absolutely love seeing what life in Japan looks like. you’re awesome kelly!
I'm so glad you're so happy to be back home! I can definitely see how much Japan means to you and it's really nice to see it through your perspective. I don't think I would ever have the opportunity to visit Japan but I can live it through your videos! I look forward to the exciting new adventures you bring us to :)
After a crazy work week, this was awesome to sit and relax to on a Saturday morning! Japan looks so lovely.
I love this style of vlog girl, you really painted a beautiful picture for me, your poetic commentary made me feel warm and feel like I was experiencing an old memory of mine....if that makes sense. Beautiful job, more like this please!!!!
So happy I found your channel. I love listening to your musings on life while taking in the beauty of Japan! Your content is raw and human, it's great. Keep up the great work! :D
can't wait for the next video Liz! I'm becoming addicted to your videos, there is something relaxing about them that I like. I'm mindful it's super time consuming and energy draining to put this collateral together, and surely all your followers appreciate the effort. I have 1 word to describe your vlogging style : Authentic. God bless you. HW
Thanks for the support! 💕
You go girl, I love watching your videos.
This was an awesome vid !
I wanna watch it again !
So relaxing and full of content !
You rock !
Living in Japan for 2 years with my husband who is in the Navy. I am going back to the states to visit and I can completely understand how you feel about going home!
US armed forces need to politely get the fuck out of Japan and the rest of Asia, including South Korea. Go home to Arkansas, colonizers.
Found your channel on my recommend feed and I'm really enjoying it....this is the 3rd video I've watched and your smile is amazing and your laugh is infectious!
Glad that you had safe travels 😊
welcome to Japan and thank you for loving Japan so much !!
we came to visit japan. it’s our last day here. my wife and i are so sad to leave. i love it here. people are a lot more courteous and nicer.
I feel you, I was soooo happy coming back to Japan after visiting the US.
Jiyugaoka is great! Thanks for always sharing even the simplest things. Great perspective on life.
I’m coming to live and work in Japan in 3 weeks and I’ve never been more excited. I’m anxious to move into my apartment but I’m also ecstatic that this is actually happening. I can’t wait for it to feel like home ♡
This blog turned out just fantastic!
“Complaining is a release of stress” - it is!! thank you sooooo much!
Watching your vlogs put me in this trance like state, almost wistful in a way. I want nothing more than to return to Japan and your videos remind me of this and encourage me to do everything I can to make my dreams come true.
I’m so glad!
How beautiful! I relate to you so much. I also struggle somtimes and share a deep love and appreciattion for Japan. Your video brought tears to my eyes because I could sense your joy! I am working to make my dreams come true to go live there. Thank you for inspiring me!
I always get good vibes from watching your videos. Thank you for making my day :)
Your channel is amazing! It’s giving this very authentic, unpretended feeling and it really moves me in a different way compared to some other content here on youtube. Keep going, you’re doing great even if there are struggles and hard days in between! :)
I just watch your video, and i am loving it. Keep being awesome. I missed Japan.
I love getting a glimpse of life in Japan with you. ♥️
You look so happy so wonderful to see and so uplifting thank you makes my day start with happiness 😁
I'm happy to hear that !! You can enjoy japan with your life than anyone else.
Beautiful, as you said. I enjoyed watching the scenery, the streets, the shops, and especially inside the restaurants, eateries, and tea house. I like that you show us the menu, and the food you receive. It is an experience of being there with you.
I love your videos!!!!
And I love the way you speak your mind freely on your videos at the end.
You looked so happy spending your day out and about! ❤❤❤
Sending you Lots of love and support
Wow I can see in your face how happy and inspired 😍So happy for you !
Keep it the awesome videos! Thanks for being honest with us ☺️
You look so recharged. Vacation did you some good! Can't wait to see more
You're a doll. A childhood friend of mine lives in Japan at the moment. I'm always asking about her experience and your videos help to give a proper visual perspective! Keep it up
Happy you are home! Missed your smile. 😊🌹🌹🌹
Can't wait to get back to Japan. I've visited the last two summers. No where better! Great plan of yours never to leave
Great video as always and can't wait to see what happened when you were in the states...keep it up!
This was a lovely video. I loved the picture you took with the bike. I miss Japan so much and there is so much that I want to go back and see! I was only in Japan for 5 weeks and felt my best self and noticed more culture shock when I came home as well. I found that very interesting
I randomly came across your CZcams videos just a few days ago and enjoy watching them. I love your authenticity and it's so cool that you're following your dreams. Japan looks like such a awesome place. I always lived in NY and so far got to travel to a few states in the US and got to travel to India one time when I was really young since my parents were originally from there. But now I definitely will love to check out Japan if I ever get the chance.
Thanks for another great video. You seem happier than ever. Glad to see that.
I see why you love Japan so much. It seems like such a clean, beautiful, polite, and safe country. You are helping me love the Japanese culture more with every video. Thank you so much!!
Beautiful 💗!!!!! I truly admire you and how brave you are.
I am a Japanese but live in the IS now, CZcamsrs like you and people who love Japan make me love Japan more. Watching your video is very healing and you show very well that time in Japan passes slowly... well at least it seems like at cafes especially. Thank you for the beautiful video ありがとう♥️🌸
I am so glad you have been uploading more lately :) Much love from Michigan!
