Dustin, do you know what I noticed first? There was no graffiti, no trash, nothing on the streets. The place was spotless talk about respect. As always great stuff thanks. Your drone footage was Awesome
Cause the laws are stiff, not like here in America where if ur mental it’s ok. Check out the punishment for littering… or defacement of public property lol 10 years lol
Dude….WOW! This series in Japan has really shown just how skilled you are as a cinematographer. Seriously, your shots all have such purpose and tie together beautifully. Quick flashes of locals and their daily lives just make it feel so immersive and alive. And don’t get me started on that shot of the two trains passing! You truly have a unique ability to document and share these experiences and I’m so glad you bring us all along. Cheers!
Dude, you’re doing such a great job with this series. I really enjoyed just going places that you guys are going and the exploration that you do. It’s not some influencer who’s getting tossed in a resort this is a real look at the things you can see if you come to Japan, keep them coming man. Looking forward to everything you’re doing in this off-season.
I enjoy watching wherever you go, and whatever you film, and this Japan series is a nice change from our BC scenery. Your narration and musical tracks are spot on too. Best wishes for 2024 ! 🍁🤙
"I bought this for you." 😂😂😂 Oh my god, hilarious! I am just loving your Japan adventures. Thanks for bringing us all along and thanks to Emi for her added knowledge and contributions!
I’ve been to Japan several times, sometimes for business, and others for pleasure. Watching your skilled photography and commentary is a perfect way to ‘see’ parts of Japan through your eyes. A million thanks for your amazing channel. 🎉wishing you a great upcoming year in 2024.
"I got this for you" 🤣 The Akiya that you see are testiment to the absolute respect that people have for others in Japan. I follow a few Urbex channels who have explored there and it's always amazing to see absolutely no graffiti or vandalisation - what you see is the purest form of the effect of age, the elements and mother nature retaking the land. Mt Fuji did reveal herself for you at the end there then - maybe when you return, you should try the climb to the top, hopefully clear enough to see the sunrise? Looks so lovely, any opportunity to see more is very much appreciated, so thanks as always for taking us along
Aww, but ya need to look inside the crater at the top! It might be like Mt Vesuvius in Italy where you can buy a pack of vastly over-priced geological samples taken from the caldera around it. How about one of those trail cross motorbikes to see how far up the side you could get before it becomes too steep?! 😋@@Destination_Adventure
You can climb to the top, you can spend the night in a lodge. you can't go off the trails and I believe there is no skiing. It's a national shrine and respected as such. But what a hike!@@Destination_Adventure
You never cease to amaze my viewing pallet . I can only imagine what heights you will achieve . Your sense of editing must be top notch because what you show us the viewers is as good or even better than so many documentaries I have watched . Be safe and fill our eyes and minds with more beautiful things.
What an awesome trip you are having, very glad to see you are both safe after the earthquake last week. Such a beautiful country, thanks for taking us with you!
As an American who has been living in Japan for nearly 13 years, this country never ceases to amaze me with it's beauty, kind people, and rich culture.
The drone gootage was excellent (not that I would expect anything less) and the countryside is incredible. There is so much to love about Japan, including the respect they have for everything (nografitti). Thank you so much for taking us on this wonderful adventure.
I lived in Okinawa, Japan as a kid and Iwakuni, Japan as an adult. These videos are making me miss it so much! Love the culture and the landscape, everything!
What beautiful scenery, and that fish market blew my mind. I'm not a fish person, I can't get past the texture, but to see how it's run is incredible! Spectacular views, polite people... what an awesome adventure!
I still remember how awe struck I was the first time I went from little old Quesnel BC to Tokyo. Blew my mind! This video brings back all those memories!
Happy New Year from the still warm south Okanagan, thanks for sharing the views of Japan with us. I was hoping you both missed the worst of the earthquake. Thanks again and safe travels.
Thank you for taking us along on this incredible journey. It is nice to see somewhere that some if us will never see for ourselves. As usual, you have the knack to photograph in the most amazing way. Take care of that cold. Will be with you on the next adventure.
Awesome to see again! I had the pleasure of visiting Japan in the exact area this video was taken in. So beautiful of the beaten path is, and no akiya at all. The visit to the mighty Fuji was mind blowing, and dinner on its slopes never to be forgotten. Thanks again! Bryan from Vancouver
Just had to comment and let you know the work on these does not go underappreciated. the production quality, the subtle history, and most importantly the cinematics!!!!!???? 10/10 video, my friend. I dreamt of making it to japan one day, and this video simply reinforces that tenfold.
Awesome trip dude, I've been to Japan four times over the last 20 years and always just bumbled around for 3 weeks in the cities and as much in the country side as we could get. Definitely need to rent a car next trip. Its cool to get to see your perspective cruising around with a friend. Thanks for doing the work so we can sit and watch.
Thank you once again Dustin for bringing us along with you! Mt. Fuji , so beautiful! In 1979 I was lucky enough to climb to the top and spend the night in a trail lodge then watch the sunrise from the rim of the crater. Such a beautiful country, so much history, and very warm and friendly people. I can't thank you enough for these last few weeks and bringing me back to long lost memories.
You have to go to the Japanese town of dolls in Nagoro. Nagoro is a slowly shrinking village located in the valleys of Shikoku, Japan. Populated by creepy dolls, it might make you question the reality. Its really worth the visit the lady that makes them Tsukimi Ayano still lives there if you meet her she will make a doll of you.
Really enjoying this series, I came across your channel back when you were in Mexico and have really enjoyed it since, I think I've watched everything. Japan looks beautiful and I'm jealous.
The more You explore, the more I appreciate where I have been born and raised, even though our country of Canada is becoming more oppressed and under a dictatorship
❤ we just love you taking us along! I find it so exciting to learn about different cultures and see actual footage. I may not ever get a chance to go there. So, thank you for taking us along 🥰❣️
I'm loving this Japan series! Really enjoying seeing the food you are trying. I really love that market you went to. Your reaction to the wasabi was funny. "That's not hot" 😂 Those tea fields were so neat!
Dustin, I am truly enjoying your winter time adventures in Japan with Amy. Makes me wish I explored more when I was there multiple times in my younger years. Thank you for another great adventure.
The eel bones you tried - they're to be had with beer! SO many youtubers in Japan showcase what they say is "disgusting food" in Japan, but they're picking up stuff and eating it by itself when it's strong tasting and meant to go with alcohol. A lot of Asian snacks like this are not meant to be eaten like chips or a chocolate bar, but had in a social setting with drinks too. Glad you're getting out into the Japanese countryside tho! Too often, people just stay in the big cities and miss so much of the landscape and culture of Japan. As always, enjoying all your videos!
Dustin, it seems like you are having the time of your life exploring the Japanese culture with your lovely girlfriend! The fish market was stupendous with all the different fish and tastes! Thanks for a glimpse into this lovely country! Sandy& Andy
I spent a year in Hokkaido on the South east side of the Island near the little town of Uraho Japan back in 1988 and it was a eye opening experience for me. I was in the us military at station at A Loran C radio station that is no longer there! we got to go to the closets big town which Obihiro which was about 45 miles by train once or twice a month. I met a lot of interesting and very nice Japanese people there! I still have a lot of pictures from my year long stay! It was a life changing event for me! See as much of Japan as you can like you said in your video it is a very beautiful place!
What a great episode! It's so sad to see the traditional way of life in decline as people urbanize, but it's not just happening in Japan it's just about everywhere! It's a big problem here in Atlantic Canada too.
I have super curly hair and it takes me 15 minutes every morning to ‘hot-iron’ it out - I always enjoy watching and listening to your channel as I’m doing this - it makes the hair chore seem insignificant and easier!
@@landlice48 it's funny you say that as a 42 year old man I have super curly hair and have embraced it :-) I usually throw some curly gel in it and head out for the day. However I never let it grow more than 3 inches
Great work, watched every episode s on the channel. Hope Emi is ok after the Earthquake. You are a very special friend to her. Friend as Emi should be cherished forever. Again, love the channel. Happy new year.
Hey mate, getting to appreciate your new "Adventure" and liking it very much, your filming and detail to what's in it is really great, gimmee more . Cheers
Excellent video as always. Your Japan trip has been great. I enjoy the camaraderie between you and your guide/friend. I love the respect of Japanese culture. I look forward to the next one 😊
I never would have considered seeing Japan. All ive ever seen of it is those big city's and hustle bustle. But what you have shown makes me realize theres a beautiful side to it. And to have such a beautiful tour guide would just ice the cake. You are very blessed to get to see the world as you have. My big travel experience was going to Red Deer. 😂 aside from my long haul trucking in Western canada which kind of doesn't count.
My Uncle Sam's mom has the biggest grape fruit and lemons! They're massive except this time around. He always brings us some every time he comes to visit to Maryland.
That DIY-RV you showed in the first few minutes, I have that exact truck imported to Canada (minus the RV part) and is my daily driver. I absolutely love it.
Another great video man. You just keep doing it over and over and over. This series is a wonderful look into another world. There's a lot there to appreciate. Thank you.
I haven’t seen Japanese shoreline since I was in the Seabeas back in the mid nineties Thank you for sharing this and bringing me back to some great memories ❤
What an amazing trip Dustin ,I would love to see japan and you are doing it with you’re Japanese friend is really probably the best way You see the real Japan 👍👍🇦🇺
04:54 Along with mandarin you're also probably seeing kaki (persimmon) and yuzu which depending on variety can get large like a grapefruit or it could be zabon which is a variety of pomelo.
Hey Dustin, Enjoying your Japan series. I spent 8 years there and hiked Fuji twice! There is no place I would rather be than Japan! Take it all in Bro! 👊👍👍
Dustin, do you know what I noticed first? There was no graffiti, no trash, nothing on the streets. The place was spotless talk about respect. As always great stuff thanks. Your drone footage was Awesome
Cause the laws are stiff, not like here in America where if ur mental it’s ok. Check out the punishment for littering… or defacement of public property lol 10 years lol
Yeah I love that about Japan. They are not anti-social, and they care about doing things well. We could learn a thing or two from them.
Cause cut and dry you got to jail for three weeks and eat fish heads while they decide what to charge you with...99% conviction rate...
It's considered rude to eat while walking. Or even chowing gum. We have three bins in the house. Plastic, paper, cans.
One of my low key wins of 2023 was discovering your channel. Really grateful for what you do. All the best Dustin!
I appreciate that, thank you.
Oh, indeed. Watch all of his content, he is a real story teller with good presentation.
Dude….WOW! This series in Japan has really shown just how skilled you are as a cinematographer. Seriously, your shots all have such purpose and tie together beautifully.

Such a beautiful , unspoiled place. The total lack of trash and vandalism was refreshing to see. Complete opposite of things in America.
I enjoy watching wherever you go, and whatever you film, and this Japan series is a nice change from our BC scenery. Your narration and musical tracks are spot on too. Best wishes for 2024 ! 🍁🤙

I’d love to climb that mountain. Maybe not to the summit, but if it’s allowed, I’d like to get off the trail and do some freestylin up there. :)
Aww, but ya need to look inside the crater at the top! It might be like Mt Vesuvius in Italy where you can buy a pack of vastly over-priced geological samples taken from the caldera around it.

Dustin you are amazing. Even in a foreign country, you can find bits of old structures in the forest. Way to go, and keep going!
😊
Thank you for taking us along! The country is still quite developed! Interesting! That bamboo forest is so neat!
I lived in Okinawa, Japan as a kid and Iwakuni, Japan as an adult. These videos are making me miss it so much! Love the culture and the landscape, everything!

We have lots to learn from Japanese culture. Great video Dustin.
We didn't watch last week. We're not big people people, we love the outdoor stuff. Maybe we'll try to watch this one? Please come home soon...
I still remember how awe struck I was the first time I went from little old Quesnel BC to Tokyo. Blew my mind! This video brings back all those memories!
AMAZING. I could watch hours of this. Please stay in Japan and explore more!!
Happy New Year from the still warm south Okanagan, thanks for sharing the views of Japan with us. I was hoping you both missed the worst of the earthquake. Thanks again and safe travels.

Nice to see something different, but i cant wait for the real adventure season to start again. Have fun in the mean time
What real adventure? This stuff is great!
You have to go to the Japanese town of dolls in Nagoro.

Amazing! You are braver than I am my friend. I would not have been trying so many things!
Beautiful culture and scenery and the immersion into this with your friend is really eye opening. Loving this series, thanks 👍

Love your friend! Hope all is well with y'all with the weather and earthquake. Great start to the 2024. Happy New Year 🎉
Love to see Japan. My guy talks about whathis experience was like, but this helps to picture it. Thank you Dustin!
Great video Dustin! What beautiful scenery, tea fields, bamboo forests and last but definitely not least, to hear the bird songs ❤. Hope all is well.
Those big fruits could be pomelos. And I'm sure you saw a lot of yuzu as well. I believe the unknown yellowish fruit tree was yuzu.
Yep, outta the park!
Thanks
You lucky sob. Man, y'all have a great time. Have a few for me. 🥂 And what a beautiful tour guide.
Thanks that place was awesome I enjoyed watching now i saw Japan

Epic trip Bro , Chilling Cape Town South Africa
My Uncle Sam's mom has the biggest grape fruit and lemons! They're massive except this time around. He always brings us some every time he comes to visit to Maryland.
Most excellent video. I've never been to Japan and maybe one day I'll get there. I love the culture.

Thanks for the tour.
Hey man your doing a wonderful job, show`ing off japan`s beauty especially the country side, just great, i really injoy it! .
04:54 Along with mandarin you're also probably seeing kaki (persimmon) and yuzu which depending on variety can get large like a grapefruit or it could be zabon which is a variety of pomelo.
Thanks Dustin japan really does look like bc in places🤘
Your the best bro
Hey Dustin, Enjoying your Japan series. I spent 8 years there and hiked Fuji twice! There is no place I would rather be than Japan! Take it all in Bro! 👊👍👍
This is awesome. I stared up at that mountain just wishing I could climb it.
Wow what a place 😊
I love Japan and the Japanese people. They are so respectful and honest. Your videos are world class. Thanks for sharing your travels.
