PS - Thinking of doing a Patreon Meetup in the studio this month... (^_^)
Omg I've never camped in my life, I've always wanted to, but I never could. I've would stay in that van for sure. Something i didn't do this year was definitely travel and explore. This year was crazy for me, and I just didn't have the budget and time. I also feel like the year is ending super fast, and I didn't do anything other than work. Great video, Norm! Hugs from Brazil!
I wouldn’t do solo camping there lol but with some friends maybe
I was thinking how cool it was to camp there.... but...as soon as that killer wasp appeared, nope. I would have burned the whole camper and paid the insurance 🤣
I would love to do that as I've always had a thing for camping in isolated camp grounds, the less noise there is of civilization, the happier I am on such trips. =^.^=
No
I love how you always make us feel like a good friend you brought along for the trip,thank you for taking us with you.
That's exactly how he make you feel. One of the reasons I love watching his videos.😊
I agree. Nobody else I watch gives me the same vibes as watching Norm.
all too kind~
That being said, thank you for coming along (^-^)
thats actually a really good description of how his videos make us feel, spot on tbh. love watching these videos
Perfect way to describe it. It really does ☺️
If there's one thing I've learned from watching Tokyo Lens, it's that the quality of the campsite directly correlates with the sketchiness of the road leading up to it.
So happy to see Norm is back to his adventure! (Always perfect music too!)
Love the spontaneous encounters to abandoned buildings and beautiful red bridge😆✨The camper van looks really comfy. Hope you will have more campings in the future!
Well hello again!!
Always such kind comments~ Thank you for that
Hope you're still enjoying making videos!!
Honestly, I have been following a lot of people who vlog in Japan, and strangly they have never come across or even mentioned these crazy huge hornets. For a hot second I thought that they didn't exist in Japan. I seriously love your honesty and your genuine happpiness.
Norm, you struggling randomly through out the trip was a treat! Made me feel like I was the one camping! Great video as always!
lol it’s all about those little struggles 😂
Glad you enjoyed it eh~ 😊
This feels like the most Tokyo Lens camping video ever. Also, I love how you forgot a few important things. I did the same with the family trip we are on right now. I realised last night I forgot something to sleep in and my toothbrush, and something minor for our daughter's health. 😅 Thankfully there was a store nearby and my husband's mother saved us with the healthcare item this morning as she came later. As for staying there, provided we had a similar vehicle to sleep in and a way to deter the wasps (allergy to bees and wasps), I'd give it a go. It looks like a peaceful place. ❤
I would 100% stay here. The scenery, the freedom, the escape from reality and just having a moment of peace to collect yourself with nature and simply relax.
Such a beautiful video. Thank you for all the time and effort you put into these videos to give people the opportunity to experience what they may never have the chance to themselves.
These kinds of adventures in Japan are quickly becoming my life's dream, thanks so much for taking us along with you. Taking steps to quit my job and move out there, we'll see how it goes! I always appreciate the inspiration...and I'm also impressed you didn't have any beer in your cooler.
Hahaha 😂
I was tempted to grab some beer
But wanted to be ready to drive if necessary at any moment haha
Best of luck to you and what’s remember, if you’re moving out to Japan, make sure to spend your first few years developing as many marketable skills as you can while networking~
You’ll work a lot… but if you build that skill set and network, over time you can build a great life!!
Finally got the time to watch this! It’s exactly what I needed. A new adventure, some rain, a few spiderwebs, and what feels like a dear friend to share it with. Really enjoyed the bridges and how quiet this campsite was!
Love your adventure, Norm. All those-not knowing the support poles for the awning, cutting the bag of sausages and dropping it on the ground, cutting a hole in your pocket, that little drama with the hornett, and also bumping your head on the door- are charming & entertaining. 😂
Thank youuuu 😊
Norm, so glad you got to go camping finally. This looks like a little slice of heaven for camping, I would totally be into this place. Murder hornets and spiders notwithstanding. Thanks for showing us the nature and beauty of Japan outside the cities. Hope you got some good rest for your visit.
Such an amazing space! So glad I could make it back! Thanks so much for joining!!
13:25 is probably my favorite part in this video. The leaves falling with the rain and the soft music is SOO GOOD!
Wish the camera showed how peaceful it was in real life
Finally more camping content!!!! The camper vans and forest explorations are what really got me into the Channel! It’s great to see more of it, keep up the great work!!
been waiting FOREVER to get this going!!
Hopefully the weather there is much kinder going forward! I cannot imagine how dreadful summers in Japan can be.
I miss camping and hiking and I have always wanted to spend a decent amount of time in Japan. I don't know if I ever will now but I hope so.
I would definitely stay there!
These little camping adventures give the most "norm" vibes out of every video. You really can see how happy you are getting out again. I'm not the biggest fan of camping, but somehow get envious whenever I see you doing it lol
I felt the anxiety when you closed that door to listen and see if the hornet was still there. Very relatable feeling.
I just realized that my favorite thing about your channel is how you make me feel like I'm there hanging out with you and you're teaching me as well as showing me the coolest stuff about both life and Japan. The vibes are so cool I forget that you are by yourself filming lol it really feels like I'm there. If I ever need to get away, I just put on your channel and come hang out 🙌🤙
Ah!! 😍 How I've missed the crunching of the debris under the tires and shear drop-offs. Counting down...17 days 😊 Back to the adventure and mystery. Have a great week, Norm 💜✌️🐦
whoa.... 17 days eh!!
Thanks as always Kirsten!!
Your most recent box has actually been a bit of a life saver lately haha
Thank you!!
@TokyoLens was wondering if that was the campsite you had to give up on on the trip with Taiki. ✅️ 🗒 It's beautiful, but also really has that creepy vibe. Cooking with Norm - camping edition 💜 No judgment on the cooler. Everything looked amazing, and just what you want when camping. 😱💀 on the suzumebachi and huntsman, but the new camper van looks comfy and well set up. So much love for this one: 🎵, adventure, nature, and a challenge
I very much appreciate experiencing your exploration of scenic places like this. I don’t get around much these days and have always dreamed of adventuring through Japans wilderness and countryside. This is wonderful 😊
Can I just say, thank you Norm, for giving me a push into camping? When I was a kid, I spent a lot of time just wandering up and down the hills and hollers I grew up in, and as I grew older I just sort of stopped spending time outdoors. But watching your videos had me going "I wanna do that." So I bought some camping gear, and did. So again, thanks for helping me get back outdoors!
Also, I'd totally make that drive and stay there. Those roads are positively highways compared to some of the dirt roads around here.
That campground is absolutely amazing! Who needs safety when you have those gorgeous views? 🤣
Thanks for bringing us along for the fun! 😊
Hey Norm, I'm so happy you're out camping again because I love seeing the Japanese countryside. This campsite really is gorgeous like you said, I absolutely love it! I would go there in a heartbeat. The remoteness of it all is perfect according to me. Your van was also pretty sweet, looks comfy. Love your videos Mr, take care!
Don’t feel bad Norm, I didn’t fare well this summer either over here in Florida 😢
This year the summer heat was unbearable 🥵
Just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to make these videos and see Japan through your eyes. I love Japanese culture and anime, I hope to visit one day. 😃
I would definitely do that trip with the camper van it was awesome to watch. Love your camping experience 🙂 I’m completely accident prone so that would’ve totally been my experience as well😅
I really do enjoy watching your videos 😊🤗 thank you again!
I always enjoy these narrow mountain roads, thanks for taking us along for the ride!
More to come!
Great news @@TokyoLens, it's always a pleasure watching these videos and having them on in between working on music, there's something about the scenery that's just very inspiring. One day I'll immerse myself in it, but until then your channel is a great alternative 😄
"Would you stay here?" Totally! *sees that giant spider* - Absolutely not. Nope. Never. Na anh....
Haven't kept up in a while but it's wonderful to see you still loving what you do and your videos have kept such a level of quality and consistency that I don't on other exploration channels, stay safe, thank you, and take care 🤙🏽
Love these adventure videos Norm! As a norwegian, it's understandable that the heat is a bit much, personally I tap out at around 30 degrees celsius so I can't imagine how the japanese summer heat must feel. I really wanna visit japan and explore some myself in the future, would probably travel in spring and not summer though. I must admit that the giant spiders, giant centipedes, killer hornets, bears and snakes kind of scare me, the worst we have in Norway is probably wolves, moose and european adders, although there have been some bear sightings recently so that might change. Anyways, keep it up Norm, love your vids. Btw, is april a good month to travel to japan?
Yes without a cedar pollen allergy.
Interview or day in life of grounds keep would be hell of a video. Talk about dream arborist job. I'm assuming they thin out overgrowth. And wood work.
I'd just like to say, どうもありがとう! for showing these amazing places.
My heart yearns to travel like this & I've always wanted to visit Japan, plus there's a sort of an eerie serenity when viewing abandoned or old places like this. My mind just reels with what the people who lived there use to do in their day to day lives & what happened to them. Each building has a story behind it & I love it. Unfortunately, medical issues have put a stopper to my dreams. Yet, I'm fortunate that I can still experience seeing these small corners of the world when people like you share them! 😊
So thank you & keep up the great work!
Always a treat to see you on the rurals, I can't believe how smooth the roads are when they probably only get driven by once or twice a day
Id say that road is more like once or twice a week at best lol
✨Super amazing 👑
🍂Happy October everyone 🎃
I’m glad that someone finally mentions the downsides to camping, for some reason people act like bugs don’t exist lol. It always seems so peaceful in people’s videos.
Bro cooked so much food! Haha four kabob's, a whole steak, thenn 3 glizzies! with the side salad! 💀🤣 must be on a bulk. 💪🏽then bro smacked down some smores effortlessly.. 👏🏽 after a meal and head smack like that, I would have actually slept like a baby. Great content 👍🏼
Bro as much as that place looked super peaceful and quiet and of course very beautiful. I have seen enough Japanese horror films to know that I would be mad spooked, esp with no cell service hahaha. Great video though! You ate like a king :)
Oh yeah!! This is what I have been waiting for🤩🔥🔥🔥Norm’s solo adventure!! 22 minutes went real fast… I wanted to watch more lol And the new camper van looks so cozy💖 1000% on my bucket list to travel with that camper van to the beautiful camp site in the nature~
I live for this shit! ...... most people do not know how it feels to be in the middle of nowhere eating a hot meal you prepped over a fire, or a hot cup of coffee in the morning as the birds chirp around you.....
That feeling is pure freedom :D
I love these random hidden camping sites! We used to go camping all the time in Northern Japan and it was so nice to be out camping with no one around.
I love watching tokyo lens ... it feels like all my stress are relieved even if it is for that moment but it feels good...and yes someone in the comment section was rigjt ...watching him actually feels like being on a trip with a good old friend
That is such an insanely kind comment to leave on somebody’s video.
It put a smile on my face and I want to let you know that I appreciate you 💜
your videos are so cozy :')) this channel is my favorite place to escape to
I couldn't help but laugh, and feel bad. Poor Norm, it seemed like if it could go wrong it would go wrong on the trip. Hopefully you still had a good time.
The campsite looks lovely, wasp included. It's quiet, green, peaceful and hopefully restful. The road to it looks sketchy but the little camper van seems small enough to manouver to the site without too much worry.
Looks like you had a great time. Always loved the bridges over rivers in the forest. So serene. If i were to ever do this I would have to overcome my phobia of spiders. 😂
Absolutely gorgeous place ❤ I can see myself camping there in a van but not going to step on the bridge of spiders. The trickling stream would be interesting to see in the spring, when its raging by. The road does not look too bad to drive combared to some roads in Norway 😊 Love the deep colours of green all around.
Norm, it has been way too long since you've done this and I can't wait to be part of the journey again, watching.
Your enthusiasm is exactly how I was and how I will be in Japan, since I find myself in the way you enjoy things and what you enjoy - during Corona when I couldn't enter the country or apply for any job, it was always bitter-sweet to watch your videos and sometimes I'd even avoid Japan content altogether; but with you, I always found some time to sit down and chill watching a VoD of a livestream or a video of you exploring.
Now that I'm only waiting for my papers, it's only sweet, no more bitter, when I watch your videos - so keep em coming!
Yami!!
WAAAAYYYYY Too long
missed this all summer
Glad to be back at it!!
Definetly would go to this camping site, the nature is beautiful 😍 I´m glad you got the chance to go camping again Norm, liked the video a lot. I must admit that by watching Tokyo Lens I came to appreciate and love Japan and its nature way more than before, and I am thankful for that 😊
I feel shame right now...When you closed the hatch to listen for that hornet I ALMOST took out my ear bud to listen with you. I think that's a testament to how immersive your videos are!
To answer your question, I would take the drive to get to that campsite. I've walked 41 miles in the woods to stay at a campsite I call my woodland home (it's a backpacking trail, hence 41 miles and the site is magical...waterfall, Adirondack style lean-to, ZERO light pollution so the sky is nothing but stars).
If you have your motorcycle license… come to Nagoya… I’ll take you to some secluded camping spots in Shiga and Gifu.. Motorcycle camping can take you to great spots in Japan.
ah I've missed these! I've just realised how close you are to 1m subs! I still have my pre 50k sticker 😭💜
I just stumbled onto your channel, this is my first video and I am hooked! Keep up the awesome work Norm!!!
Glad to have you here and welcome to the adventure~
I would absolutely adore going out and camping there. Although I might prefer doing it during winter or late autumn when there's less bugs and insects, I hate those so much!
Norm your camper van videos are some of my favorites, I'm glad you were able to do it again despite your busy year. The many outtakes this video has are appreciated!
I would stay there for sure! I love campervan journeys and have done several trips just by myself. There is a unexplainable beauty in being in nature on your own.
Thanks for making this video
Love he scenery shots in this video. I turned up the quality to 2160p and it just seems magical
the 4k viewing is an absolute must! haha
So happy to see you camping again. The Japanese country side is always so beautiful and you are one of the few who show that true beauty. Thank you for everything.
Not gonna lie, I was a little disappointed when you opened the cooler/fridge and there was no Sakuraco or Tokyo treat boxes inside. But, I was happy to see a minute later that yes, yes you did bring them ^_^
Absolutely no judgement on the cutting of meat. I also use scissors to cut my meat, and homemade pizza.
Oooh, another sticker to find. Happy hunting for those tracking them down ^_^
Weather looks perfect. The country looks absolutely stunning. Glad you have a fun and nostalgic experience
So glad the weather is becoming for agreeable for such adventures. Thanks for sharing. I’ll never see these site when I have the rare occasion to visit Japan due to family obligations and other priorities. So glad I can experience this through you!
I love how despite of how clearly exhausted you were, you still tried to stay positive!
I wish I could have gone camping this summer too. But gas prices in Canada are pretty bad. On the bright side, these videos allow me to live vicariously through them. 20:47 This is similar to when I mean to turn on a light and turn it off instead because it was already on to begin with. Thankfully it only happens when I'm distracted.
They should install a protection net that drops down, so the bugs don't go inside the vehicle :D
Another camping video yay.. these are always soothing to watch with the awesome views and weird and beautiful spots you take us to always make my day.. Thanks for bringing us along.. Happy Sunday Norm..
More to come!
and see you again soon!!
@@TokyoLenswaiting patiently already 😊
This yuru camp live action adaptation takes some interesting liberties with the story. 8/10
The cute music, plus the sound of rubble as you drive, give your video a rather Ghibli-esque charm.😊
Awesome video as always Nrom. Your camping adventure are always so awesome and so fun.
Thanks for another great video. Love seeing the beautiful nature that Japan has. Stay safe out there!
I think you need to invite Steve Wallis (Camping With Steve) over from Canada to do some stealth camping. 🤣⛺️
I also wish I'd have gone out more often this summer to photograph the stars and Northern Lights.
I would love to stay there! But then, each new encounter with a different scary bug reminds me how much I love the idea of camping and all of its peacefulness and being one with nature.... as long as I don't come face to face with any nature 😅
Legit might be my favourite channel. Allways just good vibes.
Looks like a fun camping site! Not loving the road up there, but would be fun to visit, I think! Glad to see you getting to go out and enjoy nature and camping again! Love the van!
These countryside outdoors videos are the best. 👍
I would LOVe to go there, the more I watch the more I keep finding out norm likes a lot of things I do. Japan, camping, aviation. Its great to see that all in one package.
great video norm! missed those camping videos! also congress on 900k subs ;D ik its super hard to reach this milestone as a youtuber. 1M before 2024?
"it's hidden somewhere in these mountains" That's literally everything in Japan!
I would absolutely stay in the van in that lovely campsite, cooking outside under the stars is just idyllic, glad you got rid of the big bug though 😊
Fingers crossed there's access next week, it's our first destination when we reach Japan based on your video! Looks so beautiful
Funny stuff! How about a giveaway with a flight and that other pop up van for a few silly weeks with the winner? Camping through Japan with a brand new persons perspective could run into many funny adventures!. Personally love the upper pop up just needs a zipper to the outside and light ladder for nite exits. Cheers!
Did the giveaway already lol
Love your videos, Norm! Thank you for making them!!
Thanks for the video, it was fun to 'go' camping with you again.
To be honest with you the animals that scare me the most when camping are the insects. I usually don't mind normal spiders or flies but I absolutely loathe mosquitoes (I'm the one they always go for in my family) and bigger spiders in other countries terrify me.
Place looked great though, I'm not very brave so I wouldn't want to drive there, that's what I got you for!
Gosh the music is so great in this one!
As much as I would like to camp and such, it's the bugs that's too much for me. So thank you for allowing me to vicariously enjoy it through your experiences .
The spot you chose is AMAZING!!! it's so beautiful and serene.
I feel you on the extremely hot summer, out here in the US in Louisiana we were hitting points of 106-110 F with like 50-60+% humidity. No camping was done out here as well.
12:25 The Peace and Quiet... and Norm walking around in a bright yellow tshirt talking his head off :))))
If you don't like it, you don't have to stay...
@@aliceDarts but I love it
@@derzemel then stay! 😅 There are so many amazing outdoorsy videos here. It would be a shame to loose a member of the fandom.
Always love seeing your videos Norm, they're such a wholesome window into some of the best parts of Japan, thanks for the effort you put into everything
I was going to say YES I’d camp there but that huntsman spider… ehhhhh I don’t know if that’s a dealbreaker or not! 😅😂 Love the van, looks cozy. That river looks beautiful too. Hope you got some sleep! Thanks for sharing!
I'm not much of a camper myself, kind of got ruined for me as a kid (not really an interesting story) but I love these camping videos. I enjoy seeing the countryside and even if it's something i'm not into, I love hearing you talk about it. Keep 'em coming
Stunning countryside. The vapour pluming off those mountains is legendary! That suzumebachi though... 😅 Would have asked the huntsman friend to take a look in the van for me.
That place looks great. I've probably mentioned this before, but I've been on a numbered prefectural route in Gunma that looked like that road, except there were trucks and cars coming in the opposite direction. That's what you get when you trust a GPS.
I live vicariously through your camping videos. Not only because camping and japan but because its a dream and the nature is gorgeous.
I haven't been camping in years and need to find a way to go soon
I love these camping videos! It's like I'm right there with you except I don't have to deal with the bugs lol
Love your dedication to good shots. I know you had to go back to get that camera every time. But dang it was worth it buddy 👌🏻
We had huge house plumbing and renovation this summer. So we were not able to hike and camp. Loved the video.
Seeing Norm posted ankther adventure always makes my day. Feel like I get to experience the fun adventure as if i'm there myself
Seeing you camp looks like so much fun and then I see all the scary large insects and I'm like NOPE NOPE never mind 😂
It's funny that you have multiple post credits haha! I'm happy to see another camping video~
mosquito net with magnets sown on the edges works great for car frames if you want to keep the bugs out in a camper as long as the frame is magnetic
So its the night time temps... She will be right by day if she pumps out 42c -107f but its when it lingers + 30c 90F at night is when it starts to hurt. You need that temp drop to 28c Min for a rest or the heat starts to eat you alive. Love from Australia.
My daughter has been battling brain cancer this year, so realistically we didn't get to do enough of literally anything. Not enough time with friends and family because the chemo annihilated her immune system, not enough days out for the same reason. Not even enough work because my partner and I have been off work most of the year for our daughter. However, she's hopefully had the last of her treatment now, and now we wait for test results and scans to see if she's cancer free 🤞 in the meantime we will make the most of her having an immune system again, and this upcoming Saturday she's going to her first birthday party of 2023! 🎉 We are staying positive, and we'll have plenty of chances to make up for lost time in the future ❤️
Thank you for your videos, they always bring me joy 😊
Your camping videos are still videos I come back to occasionally for comfort watching so it's very nice to see more of them!
