  • Come join us for our life in Tokyo, Japan vlog where we highlight what it is like living in Japan as foreigners by showing you a typical non-travel day where we do things like go grocery shopping, do our laundry, work on video editing and grab a cheap inexpensive local meal.
    We start off the day by showing you guys our breakfast in our apartment in Tokyo which was basically just green tea, peanut butter, banana and bread. Afterwards we do a bit of work on our computers before heading out to do laundry.
    Lunch consisted of visiting an inexpensive ramen joint where Audrey ordered a bowl of ramen and I had mixed rice with a sweet and sour glaze and shrimp.
    Next up we picked up some fruit from a local vendor before doing some more filming work and having dinner in our apartment which consisted of sushi and red wine. To finish things off we show you around our neighborhood at night.
    So yeah basically this is our life in Tokyo, Japan on a typical day. Do you have experience living in Japan as a foreigner? Let us know in the comments below.

    Life in Tokyo, Japan | What is it like Living in Japan as Foreigners Travel Food Video Transcript:
    Good morning guys. It is a Sunday here in Tokyo. And we thought we'd do something a little bit different. Like we've been out sightseeing. Filming food videos. Running around but obviously not everyday is like that. We wanted to do a casual a day in our life in Tokyo video on a rainy Sunday seems like a good idea. On a rainy Sunday. And we are just sitting down here at our chabudai which is a traditional Japanese table. Low to the ground. We are having breakfast. Yes. And the plan basically is yeah just going to be a day in the life in Japan so we are going to go out maybe show you our neighborhood. Maybe have some ramen for lunch. We've been talking about that.
    We're thinking of doing laundry today. We have to do laundry. It has been a while. Our clothes don't magically clean themselves. No. We are also maybe going to go for a little walk there is a little stream nearby our house. Yes. So it is just going to basically be a typical day here in Tokyo, Japan. And we're also going to show you just what we get up to when we're not really doing a sightseeing day here. Yes. But first breakfast.
    Laundry is done. Now it is time for lunch. Yes and so because I didn't have breakfast my appetite has been growing by the hour. I'm so ready for it whatever it is we have. We are not sure what is open on a Sunday but I think we're going to try the ramen spot that is nearby.
    Yes there is one near the subway station that I've been to a couple of times. And it is super cheap and the noodles are really tasty.
    We are heading back to our apartment now. Yep. I hope you guys enjoyed this day in the life vlog. Yeah. Getting to see what our daily routine in Tokyo has been like. Yeah. It has just been like we've been living here in Tokyo for quite a while so it is just cool to show you like what a slice of our life is like here. Yeah. Well by a while we mean like almost a month which for us is a long time when you're traveling full time. Oh and there is gate opening. Parking lot gate. But yeah I mean that was a little taste of what we get up to on days when we aren't filming or sightseeing. We were filming videos in our apartment but I mean yeah you get the idea. So yeah productive day. We made a whole bunch of videos. We did our laundry. We cleaned up the apartment and now I think we're going to go chill so we'll see you guys in the next video.
    This is part of our Travel in Japan video series showcasing Japanese food, Japanese culture and Japanese cuisine.

    I adore you guys and always look forward to your videos! I really loved this relaxed “day in the life of Audrey & Sam” kind of video. Just the normalcy of doing laundry, lunch/dinner, and a walk around the neighborhood is a nice way to shake things up sometimes.

    • @chicagosun
      @chicagosun Před 5 lety +1

      I also loved Audrey’s excitement over PB (and amen to chunky pb!!!) I remember the same excitement when I was in Rome. After days of pasta, pizza and gelato, we found a small asian market where we found cup ramen! It was the best cup ramen ever!!

    Really enjoyed this video, thank you! I like to see the more neighborhood-y stuff, as well as get an idea of how much things like laundry cost. Have you made, or are you considering making, a video that talks about what your average daily costs are if you are visiting and sightseeing? What about a video that shares your favorite restaurants and attractions? Loved the cat cafe one. Thanks again!

    Audrey, you never pour a liquid detergent directly over clothes. This is a way to make permanent stains on your clothes. There is usually a small canister where you add your detergent and the washing machine handles everything from that moment on. Hope this helps.

    • @samuelandaudrey
      @samuelandaudrey  Před 5 lety +4

      Thank you! In terms of language barrier there definitely is one. In restaurants without English menus and customer service you'll likely just have to point and smile or gesture to get things you want.

      @samuelandaudrey  Před 5 lety +2

      That is incredible! That sounds similar to something called alternate day fasting where on alternate beteween one meal and then a day of regular eating and then a day of fasting and so on. Way to go as it is not easy to be that disciplined.

I remember when I had to go to the laundromat and there was a bar across the street. Well of course I use to put my clothes in the washer and high tail it across the street and get a beer and a berger. My friends could never really understand why I loved laundry day. Lmao. Until next time, keep safe from Bethlehem Pa.

    Audrey, the liquid you used for washing was a bleacher... but fortunately that was for coloured fabric. I did similar mistake in Spain. I was using softener instead... When you miss the European food, you can go to "Seijo-Ishii" or "KALDI" They are a bit expensive though. To get cheaper fruits from no-name small shops are very good idea, I agree. I have enjoyed you guys video a lot.

    “Laundromat” was coined in the 1950s by analogy with “automat”-an automated self-service restaurant- to label an automated self-service laundry. People unaware of this history often mistakenly deconstruct the word into “laundry mat” or “laundrymat.” ; )

    Hey,you guys are in ?/ went to Tokyo!? Was this place Shin Okubo? Ikebukuro!? You did really good jobs on bugetting it seems like! IMPRESSIVE!Btw., it's CHYABUDAI NOT CHIBUDAI.LOL.( pronounce as cha-bu-dai)CHA = TEA & DAI = A TABLE boh in old expressions. Not many young generations use those words ,I wonder. Sushi on go is more recent ,newer custom, when I grew up & even when I visited there ,there was no such a thing ! As sushi was a high end gourmet food! Kitkat is my all time favorite snack( believe ,it was originally from u.k.!?) & we do have lots of flavors there which are available only inJapan!So,enjoy 'em while you can! Lol. I'm so glad that you're enjoying everything there!( hope).I'm looking forward to watch more of your videos! Thanx for posting this one! 👍👏😘👏
