Oh to be young again. Sydney lady here that loved Japan. In the early 90’s I spent 2 years living just outside of Tokyo and you reminded me of those days wearing your bucket style hat. I had 3 very similar ones to yours in different colours and I wore one when days were cool. Most women wore one when they went out. Anyway, I always enjoy watching you showing everyone around, including this one. xx
You squeezed in a lot to do in one day! But, it was a lovely day and it nice of you to take us along. You remind me of the college students who volunteer with me at UCLA Medical Center. Safe travels!
That potato soup at Soup Stock looks great. Need to give it a try. 200 for that Muji chair seems like a deal. Pretty nice. Really enjoy when you go to restaurants that we have never tried in Japan.
Aw thanks guys! 🥹 I actually don’t use that many Japanese products (none at the moment).. it’s mainly just a mix of rare beauty & Lancôme! My fav product at the moment is a shiny highlighter!
Sitting here in my AirBNB in Itabashi, tired from walking around in Sangenjaya and Shibuja - watching Your Video walking around in Shibuja. Always fun to watch Your Videos, I quite prefer Your "average day" ones - and today its of cause very special to watch it. Thank You for sharing it, cant wait to see more when Im back home 🌸
You've given me a soup and falafel craving haha! Thank you for the lovely vlog... the rainy day vibes are so good! ✨ (....also shout out to Tae at 6:57! 💜)
Just love the amazing life you’ve carved out, in Japan. Not only are your Japanese language skills MORE than adequate (more like, WAY past what is expected), but your love/appreciation of Japanese culture must be highly endearing to the locals. In regard to hey fever/allergies, how is the selection/effectiveness of Japanese-approved antihistamines? I felt the wrath of the sugi the last time I was there, and my most-likely contraband U.S. antihistamine worked pretty well.
i love Lupicia...went crazy with their teas when i visited years ago especially their cookie tea! Hope ur allergys get better soon and can't wait for your new uploads.
I loved falafel brothers when I was in Japan. Because I'm a vegan and who doesn't like falafel and hummus even if they aren't vegan. I also tried their pizza it was a little too soggy for me because of all the tomato and mushrooms that were on it but I hope they have different ones like focaccia for the next time I'm there! (Plus the pizza was very expensive 😅). The falafel was amazing though! I took a takeaway salad bowl type thing once and it was very fresh (also had falafel). And for the pita ones I think you can choose like 3 toppings? They also had 3 bottles of different sauces (some were based on level of spiciness). I also liked their lotus root chips! The branch where I ate the pizza was the one with the big fake tree in the middle of the restaurant (don't know if they still have that) but they also had wine at that one. And at both the branches I went to the staff was really great! I completely recommend falafel brothers! P.S. if you ever come to South Africa you should try Falafel King! (some supermarkets here sell their frozen falafel and it tastes really fresh and yummy! I especially like the original one which isn't spicy but there is also a roasted red pepper flavored one and another really spicy one).
4:10 i just moved to japan and i hope i dont develop that 😷 never had any allergies. also you mentioned that there arent many healthy places to eat out and i couldnt agree more! i've been going to nakau like 3-4x a week because they have an oyakodon + miso soup + salad combination (and lots of other combos) for only around 700yen. it's one of the few times i can eat vegetables 😭 teishoku restaurants are also pretty good
Oh man I miss Tokyo when I see this! I used to live there for 2 years as a student, but now, 10 years later, I'm back to Shizuoka, but as a married woman 😆 Enjoy Tokyo!!
Thankyou for your vids, travelling tomorrow from Sydney for a few weeks to the land I was fascinated in since around 10? But never ended up there. Your vids have a been great, thankyou and I know I'll be back again after this. Thanks mate.
3:51 "'Rice is okay; soy beans, peanut, _wheat._ I was worried I was gluten-free cuz I had some digestion problems..." For years and years I thought that I might have a gluten intolerance, but it turned out that I am allergic to _baker's yeast,_ which of course is used in most things that have gluten in them! "Correlation is not causation," as they say.
Really love Falafel Brothers ❤❤❤ Always worth a visit! Even had a "Fischers Fritz fischt frische Fische" tounge twister battle with one of the german employees there. 🤣
I had also very strong allergies against weed and pollens, nearly 20 years ago I made a so called slit sub lingual immune therapy ; basically every day for over 2 years a small drop of allergens poured in water under the tongue in the morning since then I have never gotten allergy again I can run now out to the nature Greetings from Austria 🇦🇹 hope I hear you speak more German in that one video with your German friend you sounded very nice 👍
I find fluticasone propionate nasal inhalers are a lifesaver for me during hay fever season. The American brand name is Flonase and possibly Flunase in Japan. It’s a corticosteroid so I probably wouldn’t use it year round but during springtime it pretty much stops all of my allergy symptoms. Check it out.
I love it when you say a particular food you’re eating is vegan .with me being vegan. I’ll be there in just four more weeks, hoping to find things that I can eat. Thank you.
Sarah, we recently had very rare minor earthquake in the New York area. It was weird getting after shock text warnings on the phone. Earthquake was not on my bingo card. lol
Got back from Tokyo about a week ago and the amount of queuing people do is mind blowing to me. I should have asked some people at the end of lines why they were in the line and find out if they actually knew :D
If you can't eat seafood, I'm curious as to how you go with miso, or anything that uses bonito as a base? It was practically in every broth on my visits and avoiding it would be difficult.
Hey Sara, big fan I was wondering have you ever been to Nagasaki or Hiroshima? thanks for the great content I hope to visit Japan in the near future cheers!
Shopping with Seerasan in a nutshell, drink a ton of Tea and sit on Furniture for a long time an order it from home :-D Im waiting for the big Tokyo Breadtest^^
As someone who has had lifelong severe allergies...I'm so sorry and welcome to the sad, snotty club. Interestingly, climate change models predict that we will increasingly have more pollen in the air for longer periods, so medical professionals anticipate an increase in allergies. 😢 So our snot club will grow. Some tips from a seasoned professional in Having Allergies: - saline spray your nose when you come inside from outside, and whenever you're stuffy (but beware of the nasal rinse/netty pot - if you have weird shaped nose canals, the water can get trapped and cause infection, and you are actually supposed to use sterile water which is a pain and no one does) - no outdoor clothes/shoes inside, just have an indoor set of cloths you change into right away so pollen doesn't transfer to your indoor stuff - run a hepa air filter indoors at least a couple hours a day. Avoid opening the windows with high pollen but if you do, run the filter. And beware that companies will say "allergy" filter but not be hepa. If it's not hepa, it won't filter allergens!! Pollen is tiny! - rinse your hair before bed and change sheets/vacuum upholstery/clean floors frequently - wear a mask that will block pollen I hope your meds work well and the pollen decreases soon for you!
Wow, lots of great suggestions which could make quite a difference when dealing with pollen allergies. I am surprised about your warning regarding nasal rinses, though. In Germany, "Nasenduschen" are rather popular, I believe. I use one myself whenever I have a cold. But I was not aware that some people might be at risk of infection because of 'weirdly shaped nose canals'. Luckily, I don't think I am one of those.

It's been a while since we've had a chill Tokyo vlog! Lemme know if I should do more! ☔🫶
Definitely 👍🏼
Yes, Tokyo in the rain feels nostalgic somehow 😅
More please 🙏

Hello fellow Sydney-sider! ☀🇦🇺 Thanks for watching!
I know someday I will feel nostalgic about my Tokyo days.. :)
The tv-reporting on Sakura blooming-stage is the cutes thing ever
Aloha! A very enjoyable video to watch as I take care of cleaning house and eating breakfast.😊
Thank you for sharing your day with us. I love how much Tokyo I miss. Glad to be living via your channel.
You squeezed in a lot to do in one day! But, it was a lovely day and it nice of you to take us along. You remind me of the college students who volunteer with me at UCLA Medical Center. Safe travels!
SEERASAN I went to Komeda's coffee for the breakfast special yesterday on your recommendation. yummy. It was delicious. That bread man. Dang.
Awesome, glad you had an enjoyable brekkie! Bread is so fluffy right! ☕️ 🍞
Mundane everyday things are always so cozy and comforting to watch. Thanks for the video, Sarah! ♥
That potato soup at Soup Stock looks great. Need to give it a try.
200 for that Muji chair seems like a deal. Pretty nice.
Really enjoy when you go to restaurants that we have never tried in Japan.
I appreciate the easy flow and authenticity.
Thanks!
I've been LOVING your makeup lately. Could you maybe do a more in depth routine, or talk about favorite Japanese products? 🥰
I agree with this! Sara always look like she's glowing and I love her eyeliner!

I feel for you! I also became allergic a few years ago, wearing a mask helps a lot on top of the meds!
love your walks and everything you show, im such a fan... Such a Classy LADY
Muji looks like an awesome place to visit. Very reasonable prices 🫶
Allergy in spring time sounds so familiar. Evening lights in cafe look so fascinating.
That recliner is soooooooo expensive if you want to import it into Australia 😢

I'm the same, once I start eating for "no reason", sure enough, there it is...haha
I want that plant& pot so much! Also what's with the bread? Lol
Love your shopping videos and I miss shopping in Japan. So much cheaper than in North America.
You are so beautiful. NIce day you had. I hope you feel better soon.
You had me at French bakery. I hit up so many Vie De France chains while I was in Japan. Soooo good 🤤
Another fun video Sarah 🩷
I always love the chill vibes in your videos! ^-^ Very relaxing and good to watch.
Loved watching this :) You don't even need all the consumption in it, it's just fun to "hang out" with you in Tokio.
It's crazy how good MUJI prices are. In the US the wooden hangers are $4 each.

I love your content Sara. Makes me want to get up there from OZ ....

How exciting! Hope you settle into your new home nicely ☺️🇯🇵
@@seerasan thank you 😊
I love your kirby sweatshirt you wear on the last scene
Gotta try some good air purifiers and put it next to your bed. Especially ones that are certified to help with allergens, pollen, etc... Take care!
I actually bought one from Muji during that same week (just not part of the vlog) & I think it’s helped a lot!!
Love these vlogs! 💕

Have you stayed at the muji hotel in Ginza
Sarah, we recently had very rare minor earthquake in the New York area. It was weird getting after shock text warnings on the phone. Earthquake was not on my bingo card. lol
It’s so scary right! 🥲🥲
Sarah, it was unsettling for sure
Omg where did you get that Kirby sweater ?!
By the way, awesome content you just got another subscriber! Congrats

Muji snacks are so good
Yesssss!
Taking so long to decide on buying something only to go home and order it online is such a mood
Thank you for understanding 🥹💞
I often buy tea from Lupicia in melb. pretty good stuff
So cool there’s a location in Melbourne! 😍
I love soup. ❤ I wish we had that place here in Alabama. I would be there all the time. I love when it rains, so this was nice.
投稿ありがとうございます☺

Probiotics help to level down allergies. Just a tip
Blooming here in Tomi shi Nagano prefecture btw where's your home land mines Brisbane Australia?
Please visit Nagoya and make a video there
Hey Sara, big fan I was wondering have you ever been to Nagasaki or Hiroshima? thanks for the great content I hope to visit Japan in the near future cheers!
I have been to both before, many years ago! Would love to go back if I got the chance!
Yes yes and yes please!!
You're pretty gorgeous. Love your mundane vids. ❤
