    Shimokitazawa was amazing for me. People were much friendlier and less sales-y than the rest of Tokyo. Just a good vibe.

      Thanks for the recommendation. We went specifically because you made Shimokitozowa sound so cool. Also thanks for the pro tip about the cream puffs. We lined up before opening cause you told us they sold out super quick. Likewise keep up the good work, noticed your videos have been breaking out!

    Also… I didn’t comment the other day, but I also follow The One Pack Wanderers (since their Vietnam motorcycle trip) and more recently their friends Lisa and Josh! The RUclips world is getting more and more tight knit… I wonder who else you will meet… seems everyone I follow is in Japan at the moment!

      That’s awesome!! Definitely the travel vlog community is pretty small!! But everyone was so nice!!
      And yeah!! I think Japan is a very popular destination so after hearing it was open again after many years I think everyone was so excited to go!! Like us!
