  • Tonight we are in Osaka, Japan. One of Japan's most popular destinations for food, and night life. Starting in Dotonbori, and sneaking into some of the most beautiful backstreets that Osaka has to offer!

    huge thanks to TheColroTwelve for the walking route! www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1bUyoCUt3QKCl_imBqYyZHks0pztXVk_x&usp=sharing

    Osaka is at its best at night. 👌

    Well Norm, I FINALLY have made it thru both Osaka videos! Loved the am one but the pm even more i think.
    p.s. thank you for being aware of the flashy stuff and pointing camera away when it was possible. Really appreciate it. 💜

    Missed the stream but still happy to have the video as I groggily get ready for work. Makes my morning 10x better 😄

    Anyone planning to visit Japan will benefit so much from these streams. I feel like I’ve learned so much watching them.

  • @TheAntinowherelane
    @TheAntinowherelane Před 2 lety +1

    Love the Osaka streams Norm! Sad I didn't make them live. If you want some good areas there to explore, lmk. Osaka is my jam.

  • @RobbC.
    @RobbC. Před 2 lety +3

    BTW I think you should head to Hiroshima for the okonomiyaki or Kagoshima for the crazy cat lady! Some nice boating to be done down south.

  • @joshuakent93
    @joshuakent93 Před 2 lety +8

    Sorry I couldn’t watch it live Norm, but was lucky enough to watch the morning livestream live, I would really like to see Hiroshima especially the peace park area. Loving the content as always 😄

    • @florin529
      @florin529 Před 2 lety +1

      I second this! Maybe also a livestream from Hiroshima to Miyajima island? You can do a QnA on the boat ride there and/or back and then show the temple area and 'ultra friendly' deer.

  • @joshuamstark
    @joshuamstark Před rokem

    These backstreets and the canal in this place just… SO speak to me. I am with you Norm. I am falling in love with Osaka at night.

    I have family in Kakogawa! You should visit there some time!

  • @popularzero
    @popularzero Před 2 lety +2

    You should hit up Hakata in Kyushu when you get a chance. It's a really awesome city.

  • @luckycat7567
    @luckycat7567 Před 2 lety +1

    I was just here over 2 weeks ago! Loved Osaka so much! Shinsekai, Denden Town, and the Tempozan Ferris Wheel were my fave spots!

  • @WabbitCrouton
    @WabbitCrouton Před 2 lety +1

    Osaka people are so different from the rest of (northern) Japan. Just by watching this stream!

  • @xenoj1va
    @xenoj1va Před 2 lety +3

    Favorite part about these livestreams is it is like the entire community is taking a walk with him without all the extra people in the way

  • @krisceti6306
    @krisceti6306 Před 2 lety +3

    Thank you again for another adventure! So for future places for streaming, if we're talking just more major cities, Sapporo would be great! But I'm happy so see anywhere to be honest

  • @ThisIsMattJ
    @ThisIsMattJ Před 2 lety +2

    Couldn't catch this one live, but watching the VOD now! Spent 24 hours in Osaka in 2018 and almost all of it was disrupted by a Typhoon, so can't wait to go back some day. Thanks for helping me explore the city from my sofa. :)

  • @Gadahax
    @Gadahax Před rokem

    There's just something different about japanese night life... That dragon art on the wall was also pretty fucking amazing to see

  • @eric1800es

    40:16 with bit of lens in the frame this looks like a Japan photography FPS. Cool beans.

    I didn’t get to be there for the livestream, but North Carolina?! Yes!! I’ll be there!

  • @joward9051

    Watching from the UK This is awesome wish I could go there but with all the travel restrictions and extra ‘covid’ charges makes it too expensive and unpredictable, wish I could have visited here before all of this! Thankyou for sharing ❤️

  • @flavorhostage
    @flavorhostage Před 2 lety +1

    Osaka cabs are like an amusement park ride sometimes. I can't believe I used to drive in that mess.
    Also, those are exactly the backstreets I hoped you'd go see.
    Nagoya is more interesting during the day than you'd think, Kanazawa is nice. I'm not sure how far the shinkansen goes but I'm one of the early Fukui fans. Oh, and if you can make it out to Sado Island somehow, that would be super cool.

  • @WabbitCrouton
    @WabbitCrouton Před 2 lety +1

    Stayed at Osaka Namba only for 2 short days! Wish I can go back soon and then stay longer.

  • @slyfawkes7772
    @slyfawkes7772 Před 2 lety +2

    Seigantoji, in Nachikatsuura. The three story pagoda there is perhaps one of the most memorable in Japan, and the view of the falls is second to none. It's certainly a perfect photo opportunity.

  • @brooksnorthcutt668
    @brooksnorthcutt668 Před 2 lety

    My favorite moment so far is your background info on what you went to school for. I briefly took a coding class and the pace was too fast for me. I decided I'll keep it as a personal hobby, especially once the professor told us we didn't technically need the degree if we just proved we're capable lol. And it's interesting to hear there was a time in your life when you weren't comfortable with a camera! You're most certainly a pro now lol

  • @kcrash279

    Late Happy New Year! Osaka at night looks amazing. Hopefully our version of the Spanish flu ends soon, I’ve always wanted to visit Japan, and as a single Mom of a 15 1/2 year old, once he starts collage (🤞🏻), I REALLY want to visit Japan, and your beautiful videos have only pushed that interest to 11!😺

  • @florin529
    @florin529 Před 2 lety +1

    Thank you for the walk around Osaka! I was in Japan back in 2017 and during the final couple of days we stayed in Osaka. We were able to do 'Cycle Osaka' (which I recommend that and Cycle Kyoto to anyone visiting Japan) but unfortunately came down with a cold and didn't have the energy to explore more of Osaka at night. This walk helped fill that void till next visit. My next suggestion for the next walk through would be Hiroshima/Miyajima.

  • @sanashi27
    @sanashi27 Před 2 lety +1

    Thank you for doing this stream! It's always fun to watch these types of streams cause I can't really go places right now. I was able to catch this earlier but I had to leave so I'm also happy these are archived.

    Awesome stream, one year late, but so inspirational, ill be back in Osaka in December, and cant wait to see if I can recognise the back streets. Such fun to just explore and get lost "Norm" style. Bit of a binge of explore videos this afternoon. 😊

    @SUCRA Před 2 lety

    Absolutely beautiful scenes, for sure. Some of them reminded me of the movie Fast and Furious 3, the sole reason I enjoy that movie is the Japanese scenes. Thanks for another one Norm.

  • @Adams42X

    Why is it that everytime I hear Norm talking about his past that I imagine him someday sitting on a bench at a train station with a box of sweets telling his Story while comparing life to a box of Wagashi....

    I watched a japanese drama about 7 years ago, i got to episode 3 and couldnt understand why i could understand so little of the japanese. i was sad and thought i'd forgotten what i'd learned...then realised it was the osaka dialect 😂 after that it started to make more sence! Oops

  • @blablup1214
    @blablup1214 Před 2 lety

    Hey Norm, you would do me a real favor if you could film a flock ? a mass ? don't know how you call ist, a giant mass of turtles. as I was in Japan, there were rivers or ponds just full of them. So many that you ask yourself what the hell are they doing there, there are more turtles than space ...never seen something like than anywhere else. Would love to see this guys again :D ...

    Hi Norm! Since I know you've heard of the story, and you've shown us a few temples after I asked XD, would it be possible for you to visit one of the towns shown in Yuru Camp or some the campgrounds around Mt Fuji? I know that the first episode is at Lake Motosu.
