E08 First Time Camping | Let's Walk Across Japan
I did explore around this area in a car last month, Lake towada is incredible, I also drove to Kazuno city to go see the stone circles, It is Japan's version of stonehenge but not that impressive. I also had Okonomiyaki at a small shop by the train station in Kazuno.
Were you on therapy gecko?
OH WOW IT WAS SOOOOO AWESOME FOLLOWING YOU ALONG ON YT 🙏🏽 No 4real you inspired me to keep up my dream to travel to Japan and maybe I’ll do the route you showed along the Fuji 🥹🙌🏼 Big dream of mine but I’ll stick to the road don’t want to get snaked or beared 🎉🥳 Congratulations you did very well great success 🫡
Thank you! I hope you get the chance to! I would suggest not to make your plans in terms of your route too concrete, as you will find there will be times when you might want to change them at the time.
Man... please continue..
I will 😊
I really liked that you included the interaction when you asked if it was hotel. Sort of gives me an idea of what to expect when I'm going to have to try to ask similar things in Japan.
I'm glad, but I doubt how helpful it will be haha...
A wonderful series. I watch it before every trip I go on to Japan. Because of your videos I was inspired to visit Beppu on my last trip. Next trip I am planning to visit Hakodate and Lake Towada. One day, I might try to walk across Japan just like you. I see you are still walking across countries. Are you not videotaping it? I assume it is quite difficult. As you only have videos for Slovenia and Japan, none of the other walks have video.
This makes me happy! I am still videoing them, I'm just struggling to edit them all. But Portugal should be coming soon. 😊
For future walks you might want to consider sleeping in your tent instead of relying on the kindness of other people. Just something to consider.
Nice how you complain about police then steal an apple! Maybe the crime is the editing mistake.
Enjoyed the whole series! I am doing it bit by bit by bicycle (between work). Totally understand the fear of bears when in the country on lonely mountain roads, glad you made it back safe! Great cinematography too, I need to catch up
I'm glad you liked it! How many more stages do you have left on your cycle trip? Ganbatte!
@@LetsTrySomethingNew Thousands more, probably, but getting there! :D
I know you made these videos a long while ago, and I'm not sure where you're at now, but this series has really helped soothe me at a time I really needed it. Thanks for sharing such a beautiful journey.

That's so nice of you to say! I'm glad they helped you. It was indeed a while ago but still feels like last year...
Beautiful, amazing, epic, emotional. I enjoyed every step of your journey. One of the best travel documentaries I have ever seen. Incredible editing too... Just perfect ❤
That's super kind of you, mate! I'm thrilled you enjoyed it! ❤️
Wow... What an episode! It was hard watching it, let alone doing it. Pleased you made it out alive :-)
So was I hahah!
Did you edit on the road, or do it all when you got home?
Jesus, no, I did the editing when I got back home. I didn't want to carry a laptop around.
RUclips at its finest
How very kind of you to say!
Brilliant! I'm following you on Google maps (from my sofa). What an amazing journey:-)
In hindsight I don't know if I should have perhaps made it clearer exactly where I was...
Never seen anyone so excited to sleep on a toilet floor!
😂
Just discovered this series.. I'm looking forward to joining you on your epic journey. Albeit a few years behind.
Hope you enjoy it!
omgosh I just laughed so much at the third coffee. I realise this video is four years old but that was gold!
I'm glad you liked it 😁
What an amazing accomplishment.Well done Alan.
Thank you so much 😊
Rewatching this joy of a series! Puts me in a truly great mood <3
Aww that's lovely to hear, thank you!
Things only black people say: After walking 2,000 km in the sun almost everyday: Wow, a hat. This is actually gonna help quite a lot. 😂😂😂😂😂
😂
I’ve walked a half marathon many times and it’s grueling. How you managed to do it everyday for months on end is crazy.
The first couple of weeks are the worst, but if you do it regularly your body gets used to it 🙃
おもろいやん;)
I’m glad you visited my country, however, hiking in the middle of July😅. You’re very brave. It’s rare that people encounter wild animals but one must be very wary of ticks. I hope you enjoyed your trip.
I had a wonderful time Slovenia (and the heat wasn't too bad in hindsight). I'm just glad I managed to avoid any ticks!
I had no preconceptions about Slovenia before watching this. It looks beautiful, and very clean too. Did you make a video series of the Portugal and Luxembourg trips? I need more Alan walking adventure videos in my life 😂
Hahah I only just got back from Luxembourg (which will only be one episode I think) and I'm currently working on Portugal 😊
This is easily the best thing I’ve ever watched on RUclips. Why does it have to end?! The adventure of a lifetime. Thanks for sharing Alan ❤
How kind and generous of you to say, Jacob! I'm so pleased you enjoyed it! ❤️
still no thread answered my question what kind of music it is
hearing the "Hello i'm alan" at the start of each video is great, its somewhat relaxing in a way and the train carriage room is very homely.
Hahaha, that made me laugh! The train carriage was wonderful!
keep soldiering on good sir! I really like your cinematic shots :D
Thank you 😊
If you decide to do fukuoka to tokyo walk ill be a viewer for sure; also questions on how hydration etc worked for you while walking this distances?
I definitely will eventually! In terms of hydration, I (almost) always tried to have 1-2l of water on me at all times. As it wasn't super hot, this was sufficient.
Lucky man thought about doing this too many times
It's never too late, Billy!
So inspiring to see all the kind people help you... I walked 640km across Korea and not a single person offered to help me:) ...Thailand on the otherhand...had many people offer to help....
That's interesting, I wonder why...
Awesome journey! Was contemplating doing the 88 Temple Pilgrimage next week...but think I'm going to opt for the the Tokaido Road from Tokyo to Kyoto based on your vids.... Thanks you!!
Good choice! Did you end up doing it? How was it?
dang
Nice
Might be me sometime? thanks for the evidence.
I hope you get the chance!
love your vids but how long it took you to plan, getting visa and why
Thank you. I did very little planning beforehand, if any. The only thing I would typically map out would be the following 3 days or so, just to ensure I had access to food and water (and ideally a place to sleep). I knew I had to get a visa extension after three months so closer to the time I started looking into this.
Loved your journey, such an underrated serious, even felt a bit of 'post show depression' once finishing these haha. Can't wait to start watching your other walks
Hahaha that is so nice of you to say! Thank you 😊
did you really walk the whole of japan?
Indeed I did. I've published a set of videos documenting the entire trip 😊
I was trying out my equipment and thought if I made my emergency space blanket into a sleeping bag I could travel with my Summer bag instead of my winter bag to save weight. I went to sleep and I woke up 2 hours later with the inside of the space blanket/bag soaking wet and my sleeping bag about to become a soggy mess. I was warmer, but the Mylar has no breathability. I read about people saying "Don't put your sleeping bag inside the Mylar" and ignore them thinking they didn't know what they were talking about. I was wrong, I learnt my lesson. 😀👍
Oh wow, I had no idea. But then again, I'm not surprised I didn't; and the advice does on the face of it make sense. I can't remember if my clothes were damp in the morning... perhaps they were a bit.
At the end of the video was that rain or a Fire station practicing a fire drill with every hose they had at full power ? 😁 Thanks for sharing 🙏
Hahahaha, it certainly felt like it!!
If people ever say "Oh, walking in Japan that sounds like fun!" You should show them this episode! 😁 Such an intimate way to explore Japan, by being right in the middle of nature at it's wildest. Very admirable and inspiring Alan 👏😀👍
Thank you 😊
Itsu san was so nice! If I meet people that are 1% as friendly as her in Japan I will have a great journey! 😀👍 Loved this episode. Well done Alan!
I know right!? Try to pick up some basics in Japanese before you go if you can, so you are able to interact with the locals as much as possible!
😳 The Youth Hostel experience ! Wow 😁
😂
So inspiring! Thank you 😀🙏👍 I'm not sure how I found your channel and series but I'm super glad I did. I've been trying to get to Japan since May 2020 but had to cancel my flights because of Covid etc. I'm hoping to get there in the second half of next year and hitchhike, free camp and catch trains from North to South.
Sounds like a great idea! 👌
Each episode keeps getting better and better! It would be amazing to see you go back to Japan in the future and see the journey you would take. 😀👍
That's the plan! At one point I mentioned another route I could do, and I'm still keen to do it one day.
If someone had reported you free-camping the Police may have waited until the morning to come and say "This area is not available for camping" so they please the person saying that there is a tent in the area and also to let you sleep. I know of other people who have free camped in Japan and had Police wake the person up and say "There might be better places to camp than this" which translated from polite Japanese would be more like "No camping here, please move now". Anyway, the risk is worth the reward. Why pay for a lake side view at a Hotel when you can camp discretely and without causing an issue to anyone for free. Thanks so much for recording your trip and for sharing it with us, I watched the last episode and now I'm working my way through from the start. 😀👍
Exactly. On top of that, the police were so bemused by what I was doing, I'm sure they chuckled about it for the rest of the day. I hope you like the other episodes...
I'm cheating and watching this last episode as my first video of yours. What a wonderful way to experience life. Thanks so much for sharing ! 😀👍🙏
I’m glad you enjoyed it 😄
@@LetsTrySomethingNew Absolutely amazing. You are an inspiration and I am super thankful for all the time and effort you put into sharing this journey with us. Most definitely one of the highlights of RUclips! Thank you so much sir 😀👍❤
@@YoureNowOnTV Thank you so much for those kind words, and I'm glad you liked the rest of the series just as much! I'm going to get to work on my Portugal footage now...
Amazing video! really inspires me to try accomplish something like this one day :)
Many thanks, Ben 🫶 I hope you do one day!
