What No One Tells You About Japan
He works 108 hours a week, but STILL takes the time to pick you up from the train station. He is a top level chef, but also makes you omakase ramen for lunch. Now that’s an amazing friend!!! Much respect. And great video.
and supplied a place to sleep while at it. Great friend forsure.
nah. the best friends i've ever had are the ones who don't judge me for how much alcohol I consume daily. they're the ones who know, that without alcohol, I wouldn't tolerate them.
@@AlexanderTheGoodEnoughwell that's depressing
@@Rodiroess eh. I was being entirely facetious there.
I don't have friends.
@@AlexanderTheGoodEnoughthat's called withdrawal and you are an alcoholic
"doing things fun is good, but doing things great is more fun"
what an amazing quote
Reflects his work ethics... He's a machine - in 5 years or so he'll have a restaurant in the US and everyone in town will know his dishes.
was coming to comment this
Yea so deep and stoic. Almost as good as "sleeping sitting down is good, but sleeping laying down is great". Words of Wisdom
Working hard is good, but achieving your dreams is even better
Words to live by, I wonder what the north american version would be? Perhaps: "Why work hard, when you could hardly work? If you must work, then do the bare minimum."
"Doing things fun is good, but doing things great is more fun." Instant classic. Actually amazing.
fact this made me motivational
I actually stood up from my seat after a few seconds as that quote sunk in. Dude dropped a HARD ASS quote so casually like it was nothing! What a legend!
In a second language too, what an incredible guy!
it got me too!
I hadn't even thought to scroll down to the comments until I heard it. That's actually an incredible quote.
Daisuke was playing the song the Chicago Bulls used as their intro song from 1984-2004, when they won 6 championships with Michael Jordan. Doesn't surprise me that he seems to have an affinity for Michael Jordan with the type of dedication he has to his work.
Alan person project eyes in the sky
@@francoisdb9047 technically that intro is called "Sirius" and it's treated as an intro to this song
Check out 8:36 lol The man is a Jordan fan for sure.
Thanks guys
i think somebody who knows Michael Jordan should tell him about Daisuke and his restaurant, obviously Daisuke is an MJ fan and the "hype music" he plays when he is getting ready to open is the intro song for the Chicago Bulls (MJ's team)
i would love to see the expression on Daisuke's face when MJ walks in his restaurant :)
Shoutout to the chef and his parents for not only giving you a job but a place to stay as well.
Dude your videos are peak, raw and honest footage, im so sick of those travel influencers who make every damn country appear like a dream while every country has its downsides. You really capture the vibe in you videos and i love this. Im so glad i found this channel. All love from Belgium 🇧🇪

While that's true, most people can't handle the truth therefore most honest travel channels don't get views
@@pietrocr7
Did you take your medicine today?😂
Too true, every word. Peace my good fellow.
what a role model of a dude, very focused and driven, I wish him all the success in the world
The song at 12:40 ("Sirius" by The Alan Parsons Project) was used to introduce the starting lineup at Bulls home games for the entirety of the team's championship dynasty in the 1990s...I love that your friend played it right before opening his shop for the day, especially because he said his dream was to serve ramen to Michael Jordan. Homie is straight manifesting.
And thats the exact song that played in the video, it's the song you mentioned but in a metal cover ruclips.net/video/6HYj-uV9NGc/видео.html
After him saying his dream was to serve ramen to Michael Jordan, him playing the Chicago bulls opening music was too good😂
Synchronicity 👁️. Not coincidence. Reference my comment when it actually happens’! ♾️ ❤️
@@VisibletoanyoneonRUclipss life is a mystery.
I hope you've enjoyed the devilish trios words of truth as much as I have.
Especially the picture of Michael Jordan in his kitchen
I was just gonna say. Aaaaand your, Chicago bulls....
Such an odd dream 😂 it's like wanting to feed ghandi fried chicken.
What no one tells you about Japan and then proceeds to tell me nothing about Japan 😂
Bro I legit forgot that I clicked on that title 🤣
Exactly what i was thinking
I’m glad someone else was thinking it cuz I learned NOTHING of what I didn’t already know loool
i learnt about the bullet train i said to myself if i hadn't clicked on the title i wouldn't of learnt about them
Difference between India and Japan
Lol
Man I didn’t realize I was smiling my ass off throughout this whole video. Makes me so happy to see people out here living life the way you are. Blessings brodie and definitely subbed
Who did realize it then?
Glazing
@@eriklarson9137 I think what he meant was that it took him some time to realize he was smiling
thanks for being here brosef
🤣🤣🤣@@eriklarson9137
As an airline pilot who’s travelled and seen most of the world, I have to say that Japan has been the most amazing country I’ve visited, from its people, food, safety and cleanliness to their beautiful landscape have all been effortlessly pleasant
wow dude..i was nasa space shuttle pilot for 24 years and u dont hear me preaching about it
this guy was sharing only his opinion on the country and the best you could was this??
so to make it clear: in real life, someone would tell you something nice and you would go with a somewhat similiar sentence that you wrote? o.O
man youre a poor youknowwhat and damn disgusting :D
a nasa pilot? you? XD in your dreams pedro in your dreams hahaha
people like you can do nothing the right way you get it? NOTHING
thus such have never something usefull to say
thats what life thaught me about people like you :D
@@buljoleopard9buljo whoa dude... I was a top secret space ship pilot at Area 51 for decades and he's right about Japan.
in japan national sport is farting in each other face and guessing what other had for lunch...
New Zealand?
I've been living here in Tokyo for almost 9 years ( I came from Zurich, Switzerland) and to be honest, I'm still in awe of this country and keep finding new things in this city.
Daisuke works 108 hours a week, that's not only insanely impressive, it proves what kind of a man he is. I really hope it does come to the US and I hope he becomes very successful and wealthy. He seems like a great person and he deserves to live a fulfilled and happy life!
Man I'm turning 25 soon and I feel directionless in life. I really hope I find something I'm half as passionate about as Daisuke is about making ramen.
I'm 20 and I feel the same, I hope that at 25 it won't be like that, and that very soon it won't be that way for you either.
I am 27, so I will give you some advice. Just do anything for now that will pay the bills. Once you find what you're passionate about, you will have some money to chase that passion. If you want freedom, find a remote job.
@@FJCTRD I did "anything for now" and now I'm 48 and still in a job I hate because I never really pursued what I loved. Don't do "anything" for too long.
I was in the same boat, just turned 27 in November.
Just enjoy your time for now, spend the rest of your 20s trying stuff, having fun, messing up, and slowly building yourself into a great person.
When you get into your 30s, then get really serious if you haven't built an income or have some money in the bank. As the other guy said, of course don't mess around for too long UNLESS you make it possible.
The current rate I'm going, I'll be retiring at 33 years old being a multi-millionaire. Of course I won't stop making money, but I built this by doing whatever I wanted to and not listening to society norms.
yeah bro same... I'm 25, have no idea what to do lol all I know is that somehow I want to get rich and become a digital nomad, I have no idea how or what exactly to do though... Japan is amazing I would love to go there to visit/live... I hope I find something useful to do that I enjoy too...
Daisuke is a real one. What a good friend and he seems like such a chill guy for someone so talented and successful.
im trying really hard to get like Daisuke
My Dad and I accidentally got a women's only train car when I visited him there in 2009. Once we realized it he said, "don't worry, they know we're stupid." 😂
Miss you so much Dad!
❤
😂😢
What an amazing guy. I hope daisuke gets all the success he deserves
a true craftsman. he really cares about what hes doing. what an honor for you to work with him!
You are one of like 3 people that i can watch videos and not skip a second , i enjoy everything .
this is exactly what I wanna hear! thanks bro
@@SmallBrainedAmerican .. India misses you my American friend. .. I want to come to america with I-I1./B vlsa to work in 7=11 gus station. .. please come back to the world cleanest & numero uno tourist destination my india. ... PROUD TO BE INDIAN. g. (-a) .y hindd.🙏
ong same for me at some point I always skip through here never
try kurt caz
I totally agree with this statement. There is something so natural about you. Respect for taking a job btw.@@SmallBrainedAmerican
For the Women's Only trains, if you read the fine print on some of the signs, it states that its only during a few hours of the day during rush hours. All other hours, they're just regular train cars. At least for the ones I saw in Tokyo.
Commenting so that he might see this!
I appreciate his respect for the women's car though even when he thought everyone else was ignoring the rules
Of course they must have been only certain hours otherwise the many Japanese men getting on would have never done so. But why shouldn't he talk ignorantly about this when he talked ignorantly through much of the video.
utubenewb1265 opinion stated as fact.
@@peppersanches412Yeah, a opinion I learned watching people dozens of times wait at crosswalks on entirely deserted streets at 3AM for the light to change, or the 100 other rules that are followed to the letter even though there was no reason or enforcement at that time. The reason Japan "works" so well is because people follow (and enforce) rules there.
This guy sounds like a D1 hater of america
Yoooo , this is the ultimate video collection for grabbing a quick snack during work or just in general ! I am SOOO glad i found your channel ....Awesome :D !
7:35 I love how he says "but now i work 18 hours a day" like its less than 16. He just loves ramen that much.
They have crazy suicide rates
@@yvonnesanders4308 High for people doing things that they hate for long periods of time. This man seems happy
This man seems pretty tired to me.
hes a man on a mission and doesn't want to pass up the opportunity he has. like he said if he wins best ramen four years in a row and come to the US he can become very wealthy. you get energy when you're approaching greatness and can see how much value it brings to people
it reminds me of something Hideo Kojima said, the Metal Gear Solid creator. he said in the early days it was just a job, but then when he saw how many fans he has he works nonstop because of the energy he gets wanting to make them happy. that's why daisuke says it doesn't feel like work. that's a rare thing. it's all about the value you feel you have, if you have it then you have an energy and can work all day with it. if you're working that much and don't have that sense of value then you'll feel like a slave and be depressed
The fact that your friend is the top Ramen maker in Japan is amazing. His dedication to his craft is amazing. Book mark and I will definitely be visiting when I go to Japan!
yeahh I want to know how to get networking with successful guys like this... awesome, and the guy looks like a nice guy to hang out with, also, he's being very successful while doing something he really enjoys, very inspiring
He didn't mention that his friend's restaurant is actually way out west an hour and twenty minutes by train from Shinjuku and even further from the other areas where people usually go as tourists in Tokyo, so you'd have to make quite a special trip. It's a good area to go hiking in the mountains and forest, though, if that's what you want to do, and you can visit a nice onsen out there. But I guess he doesn't know those rather obvious things. Also, I think his friend would tell you that "top Ramen maker in Japan" is a goal, not an accepted fact, as very few would have ever heard of his restaurant or tried it all the way out there, though it may be tasty ramen. Backpackers don't really know much about the places they visit. Some funny things I heard him say were "it takes five hours to go from Osaka to Tokyo on shinkansen" (it takes about half that), "It takes two hours to go from Osaka to Kyoto by car" (it takes only 40 minutes, but who goes by car?), and saying "irrashaimasen" instead of "irrashaimase" gives it the opposite meaning. He doesn't know much about Japan, but at least he was polite, friendly, and humble.
@@TB-wvvvw ok
There are Michelin starred Ramen restuarants in Tokyo, and a couple that are well known to make some of the best Ramen in Japan. Top Ramen maker in Japan is a very big call.
Very cool, thanks for sharing your experience!
HOLY SHIT Its so cool that Daisuke is wearing a Music City Mystique coat at 8:42. They are based out of Nashville and is in my opinion one of the best indoor drumline groups. Ive seen them so many times. AWESOME!!!!
Bro another chapter in the adventure, excited to see it unfold. And shouts out Daisuke for the quote “Doing things fun is good, but doing things great is more fun.”
never heard that quote, pretty inspiring ngl
It’ll be cool to see what it’s like through your videos of living and working in Japan and not just passing through

Check out PAOLO from Tokyo. he has a series
I really enjoy when someone who travelled everywhere understands Japan the same way I do. Loving all of your videos brother.
Just found your page and I love the content. A guy just living life and making life long connections no matter where he goes. Looking forward to seeing where you go next man!
dang... i didn't think i'd find this video interesting at all, but the simplicity and honesty of it all had me hooked all the way through.
basically no editing aside from cuts, no background music, no fake youtube voice or anything... it's rare to find a content creator of your style. there's a lot of fake people on here so i tend to forget that the genuine ones are so much more fun to watch
that's the power of "don't recommend channel"
i use it quite often
Yes 💯
The Japanese take pride in whatever work they do, and they always strive to do their best. And people respect that, no matter what kind of work it is. You can see this if you stay in Japan for a long time and observe the people closely.
They also kill themselves because of work like no other country….
Man that’s my default I had to have it beaten out of me by jobs that expect you to do the minimum for minimum pay
That’s what makes it great
Bro, I love your sense of humor. Keep on Truckin’ mate!
I just found your channel a couple days ago and I've been hooked on your videos. You have a great way of presenting your adventures and i don't know if anyones told you, but you look like you could be related to Mr. Ballen. You have the same humble, caring personality.
This is the type of personality we need from content creators. Like an actual real and raw person.
I binged your entire journey over the course of two days. What an unbelievable experience to be a part of. I wish you all the best dude.
Mate is comparing the Indian train ride and a Japanese train ride despite the price difference probably being like 50 times. Ofc you get what you pay for. Were you expecting luxary after paying like 3 dollars.
india sucks
His India trip wasn't a great experience at all.
What’s ofc?
Plus in America on Amtrak there is no TSA or pat downs or anything.
Also you’re free to walk around anywhere on the train. Although the restaurant car is usually by appointment.
Things that no one tells you about Japan;
- one of the highest suicide rates in the world
- long working days, up to 16 hours and more
- prominent senior-junior workplace bullying culture, and that's just how it is.
- insane and unnecessary noise and light pollution; visit any electronics store to find out.
- if a relative commits suicide, instead of your community supporting and helping you, you are met with shame and contempt, because your relative's suicide makes you look like you've done something wrong in their eyes
- beautiful scenery littered by enormous pylons of powerlines
- unquestionable nationalism. You become very unpopular very fast if you criticise your government or country.
- over the top adherence to rules. If you offer to pay more for more X ingredients in a meal, they will likely refuse because "that isn't what the menu says".
Obviously it would appear I don't like Nihon but I think it's one of the best countries in the world; their waste management system is so amazing. It did things to me. It was really easy coming back from Japan with a delusional romance. Still an awesome place, but not as perfect as it may seem. In fact, it is that very perceived perfection on the surface that can only have the contrast of a dark underbelly beneath it, which it has.
This was a great read 👍
That last quote was beautiful by the chef/owner "doing things fun is good, but doing things great is more fun" never heard that before but its quite profound.
I’ve been to Japan 5 times, last year for 7 months. It is indeed the most amazing country in the world. I just love how everything is organized, clean and super safe. People follow the rules and respects others. Thats why I keep coming back. Writing from my hotel in Yamagata.
I want to just up and leave. How do you manage to sustain a lifestyle? I am an I.T professional but I don't speak a word of japanese so I don't think working would be feasible..
@@alexhill9423 I just work a simple job and save money. I don’t have any debts, nor owe money to anyone. When I buy stuff. Always pay in cash, no credit cards no mortgages. I don’t go out every weekend drinking and wasting my money away on stupid bars and restaurants. Be simple, live simple, and you can afford to travel every year.
How hard is it for an American tourist to get around and live in Japan without speaking any Japanese?
@@thebellcurve3437 If you plan on sticking to the tourist places such as Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto, no problem, but the moment you step outside those places you need basic Japanese to communicate. People outside big cities do not speak English and for an extent I understand them, you are a guest in their country, you are supposed to speak their language or some basics at least not the other way around. I like this mentality the Japanese have.
seems like a nice country but the amount of sexual assaults and harassment is pretty fucked up
I was just there in Japan, you do a great job portraying how nice the country is
The fact he wants to come to the US to represent Japan and the artisanship of his ramen specifically is so inspiring. I've been struggling creatively with own business endeavors and seeing someone who is dedicated and loves their craft is so powerful. Thank you both!
great vlog!! just found your channel today but it’s what I’ve been needing. a great relaxing vlog channel, so chill and raw. no crazy effects or sound effects every 2 seconds and feels like I’m watching a friend.
Looking forward to more Japan content! Great seeing your channel grow so much in last few months
You are supremely jazzed on this living thang we are all gifted, thankful for the reminder that such is our choice to gratefully exist.
This was awesome, thanks for the video.
Thanks so much for these man. As a brit heading to Japan for the first time in January for some solo travelling these videos have been really interesting (and rather funny). Keep it up!
You are an inspiration to so many people who maybe don’t want to step out of their comfort zone and travel. I lived in Japan for 3 years and it’s my dream to someday live there again with my family. By the way, the women only train cars are usually only during commuting hours so that is why there were probably men on it too.
If I remember correctly, "women only car" of that line is between 7:30 and 9:30 a.m.
Yeah, I find that he doesn't really know too much about what he is talking about.
Your Japan Videos are AMAZING!
I’ve only seen like 3 or 4 videos of you but I love your energy man, you earned a sub and keep going with that energy and videos. Very hard to find an authentic channel like your man.
I don't watch travel blogs because they're usually super annoying "influencer" style of showing off. But once I discovered your channel by mistake (was looking up India stuff and then your India videos came into my feed) I couldn't stop! Over the past couple of weeks I've literally watched every single video of your Ireland to Japan series and am left hungering for more! So now I'm starting to watch the older stuff from South America etc. Holy SHIT what a TRIP! Love your attitude and how you handle the ups and downs! And WTF the crazy antics you've allowed yourself to get into... like dude how are you even still alive! The most memorable moments for me: 1) the hilarious pineapple moonshine drunk in Myanmar 2) the crazy "suit" propaganda guy in Iraq. Jesus... I'm glad you weren't alone during that part. 3) That moment when you'd reached Istanbul and you were tearing up, so proud of how far you'd come - I teared up with you! 4) All the really scary or tough moments - I felt your fear and your desperation right along with you 5) But also all the moments of elation and success and experiencing the kindness and generosity of so many people. Thank you for this channel Conner. I hope you're now making enough money with your RUclips channel and Patreon that you never have to worry about corporate jobs again! Regards from a Canadian living in Finland.
That literally is me right now!
what a nice comment. i hope he sees it
Paris' train from the airport is awful as well. I felt like he did in India on the train. Except someone tried to pickpocket me.
@@DjCamMan
@@humanbean3 Aw thanks. Writing the comment I knew full well that he most likely won't see it as his channel has already gotten so big. But I was compelled to express myself regardless! :-D
You’re brutally honest and that’s why I watch
i used to work traveling to different stores in illinois, indiana, michigan, ohio... there was one store north of chicago called lincolnwood zare or zairs i dont even remember now, but it was an asian neighborhood and it was my FAVORITE PLACE TO WORK ! the japanese kids were so quiet and polite and the people were so nice and respectful, i made it MY store in the company i was at, I AND i ALONE TOOK CARE OF THAT STORE. LOVED IT. been thru japan airports many times but have not had the chance to wander around there yet. love japanese girls and anime as well.
Really glad to have found your channel. Love your work mate.
Ive been in Japan 20 years (still here now) . This was very entertaining, had me smiling from ear to ear 😊
Woah!!😲
You're almost a Japanese by now
@@pokemonitishere202think I’d need to live 3 lifetimes here, not just one , to become Japanese 😅
How are your Japanese skills? I want to visit too and possibly stay for a few months. But I need to learn the language..
@@CanariasCanariassI speak Japanese every day in work, with people who don't speak English. But due to their use of Chinese characters in the writing system, I doubt I'll ever be fluent. Edit: I have never formally studied this language, only self study.
The average Japanese person can not read 100% of a Japanese newspaper because no one knows ALL of the Kanji ("Chinese characters").
I have quite some issues with Japanese society and the common lack of social skills such as empathy - BUT their hospitality is unrivaled!!
A friend once gave me the keys to his apartment and said "I'll have some work far away, just stay here, feel at home, and throw the key into the letterbox after you leave; I also had a family of a (not even close) friend inviting me to their home and to a famous bathhouse for free; there was another woman giving me a place to sleep and eat after I missed a plane in Tokyo; and once, four shop-owners totally went out of their way to help me - a stranger - in any way before I could even speak their Language. Those are not even all examples, but definitely precious memories to me.
"Doing things fun is good, but doing things great is more fun." I instantly teared up hearing that as I resonated with that, being a full-time audio engineer where people say "don't work so hard". I'm grateful for my life despite the hard work, and wisdom like Daisuke's helps me as I continue to pursue my passion. Thank you for that!
Your channel is gowing to blow up . The YT algorythm showed me this
Blow up do nothing and still got money from patreon and travel around the world
Same.
Ive never seen an actual realistic travel vlog before , just came across your channel and wanted to say I appreciate the honesty and youre also incredibly hilarious , love your personality and perspective on things . Keep up the videos :))
Bald and bankrupt. You're welcome.
Anyone who has worked in a restaurant knows how hectic it can be and even good friends will be distracted and likely lose patience with you. The fact that he wasn't tense at all, genuinely happy you were there, tells you that you have yourself one of those ride or die pals. Says a lot about you as well, that he likes you that much.
Thanks for taking me along with this adventure!
Love your Videos Bro. Thank you
I'm glad I found your channel, since you show stuff that other people don't. Keep up the good work bossman.
I've been back from Japan less than a month but your vids really capture it, and now I have a longing to go back. Please make more!
I’ve never like travel vlogs until I watched yours! I’ve tried looking for others to watch after yours but they just aren’t the same. I feel like I’m there w/ you experiencing it. I love how you go on random adventures w/ the locals. Please do more.
This is the kind of content everyone needs! No Bs about how it is to travel around the world.
love the Japan videos, im going in March!
I worked at a Chinese restaurant in America where they barely spoke any English. Its eye opening you realize how it must be for them coming here to work. But you seem to be able to communicate with these people. I give you alot of credit its extremly hard to oearn another language for some of us.
much respect to the chef and parents...
I think its great that you were legitimately excited to work
Mans discovering trains, glad you enjoyed it!
Bro you definitely deserve way more views, your content is top quality and you’re awesome, just found you a few weeks back and have watched virtually all of your stuff. Just keep up the hard work and I have a strong feeling with due time you will get the attention and credit your deserve. Till then just know you got some people out here quite interested in your style. Take care of yourself and all the best
He can barely put together a sentence without using the F-word or invoking God in a vulgar context 🤦🤦

To be handed a chefs' coat is major respect. True friendship!❤️💯❤️
it is really admirable the way of being of the Japanese, I have traveled a lot especially in Europe for my work also America, but Japan is something shocking, I have gone only once and I am in love with Japan, incredible your videos very natural and honest, greetings from Spain, I am in love with Japan.
I just got back from a 3 week trip between Tokyo Osaka and Kyoto, Japan in such an other worldly experience compared to our normal western way of life. It’s amazing and refreshing to be around such nice people! Going back soon for sure
Wow I also just got back from a 2 week trip from Osaka Kyoto and Tokyo
Ended in Disney Japan.
I just returned from a two week trip to Japan. It was such a wonderful country and I didn't want to go back😂
was there the whole august. Best trip of my life.. But never in summer again. I almost died from the heat!
hey so did, I really wanna go back soon and do all the things I missed, and maybe go little later than september it was still so fkn hot
If you work 120 hours per week it's even better. xaxaxa
Happy for you bro! Have watched every video and seeing you have some time to settle down is thrilling in itself. Dont set a time line for yourself, keep working odd jobs and living life. Keep up the good work!
this is a really nice video, i like your account man keep doing what you do. 100
What a genuine friend.
Huge love for Japan from Bulgaria.
Best country in the world!
Great respect to the dedication to work in Japan, especially people like Daisuke who basically is dedicating his whole life to it.
I don't think I could do that. I don't mind working hard and much, as long as it's a job I enjoy, but I really like my free time to pursue and enjoy any other hobby I have.
If I ever were to move to Japan, because let's face it, it must be an incredible place to live, it would be were I was basically self-employed and made enough money to live comfortably but only having to work 30-40 hours a week. Likely won't happen, but you can dream.
When you're at an outdoor station in a remote part of the country and the Shinkansen passes at full speed right next to you that is a crazy/scary moment. Great videos and absolutely LOVE Japan!😀
bro i just stumbled on your videos and im hooked man nothing scripted just real. sometimes awkward and funny too i wanna be you when i grow up.
Conor! I'm so glad your channel is blowing up. You're a legend and you've been as real as it gets since the get-go! Keep being yourself bro the content is pure fire 🔥
„Doin things fun is good but doing things great is more fun“

Actually crazy that you went to Ome. I worked a baito there teaching ESL while I was studying abroad at Soka University in Hachioji. When I got off my shift at the tutoring center, I would walk to the Ome station and daydream about moving there. I hadn't really experienced a place that simultaneously felt urban and quaint before and it hits me hard in the feels seeing someone else appreciate the less-traveled places the way I did.
If you ever go back, the hiking trails up by Oku-Tama are absolutely gorgeous.
i greatly enjoyed this video...thank you

Yeah, because Japan doesn't have blk people.
bro your "irasshaimase" (and life attitude) is impecable. Daisuke is a good "spirit" and we cant wait for him to bring his Ramen FeeL flavor to the states. finally, its truly awesome that you took the time to share your totally stoked "different approach to life" concept with us. cheers !😀
Not sure if you've noticed yet, but men were probably boarding the "women only" car because it was past the designated time. They're usually only "women only" early in the morning.
"It is the best country on the goddamned planet." It's why I moved here twenty years ago. Saw the writing on the wall.
- Doing things fun is good, but doing things great is more fun.
I love this
I'm going to be a bit vulnerable saying this, but I am very similar to Daisuke when it comes to work etiquette and I am trying me best to be as wholesome as he seems to be, but man I feel lonely in doing this. It makes me very happy every time I see people like him, it wipes away just a little bit of that loneliness.
Nothing wrong with taking pride in the things you do. Just don't expect others to do a good job and you will be better off. People see you friend.
I read your message. What I think as my own personal opinion is that working like 10 hours a day 7/7 is "unhealthy", let alone working the freaking 15hours a day 7/7 as this guy does. I get the point that Daisuke is doing what he loves, I am not judging him and he can do what he wants but he is clearly "not living life", I don't know how else I can tell this. He is literally only doing ramen and sleeping in his other "free time". Again, this is probably working for Daisuke, but this can be the recipe for disaster for I guess 99% other people in the world. People need spare time, do nothing sometimes, have relationships, hobbies, holidays, etc etc (and also work)
@@Supercecco85 You sound very much like a person from western Europe and whilst I think you're right and it's definitelly healthier, part of my approach towards my career comes from my culture, exacerbated by our upbringing. What makes me feel lonely is the difficulty of finding other naturally kind, honest and caring individuals/families, especially since we moved in the UK. We keep blaming cultural differences and keep on making efforts towards reaching and approaching likewise individuals/families but it's rather difficult at times, to put it mildly.
Anyway, I went into far more details than I should or would normally, thank you for your reply, take care and happy holidays to you and your family.
what do you do? I feel like this sometimes.
"Doing things fun is good, but doing things great is more fun" I love that.
Next on my bucket list is to visit this ramen shop!
Bro your videos are easily some of the best on this site my man. This stuff takes me back to when I would crack open some chuhais and enjoy the scenery when riding up to Osaka/Tokyo/Nagoya on the shinkansen. Looking forward to whatever you do next!
god, I can never get over how painfully beautiful Japan is and how good their infrastructure is. I'd happily work in a shop like that for years just to live there and take in the culture and learn the language. edit: Daisuke is a legit artist
working for a 18 h/day isn't a bit too much?
God*
bro kitchen porter is no joke trust me
Strict immigration policy over there.
@@games4us132 Yeah they just see the emerged part of the iceberg, why would I care about good infrastructures if I don't have free time to enjoy them ? It makes no sense at all. And I'm sure most japanese would agree, especially since it doesn't make them more productive, a Japanese is as productive as a french while working double the time, at the point where they don't even have time to build a family.
Just wanted to say this video made me happy, thank you.
I really hope you see this! I love your energy. Like I am only 5 mins in and I love this. first video too
this is hands down the best travel channel on youtube
