i cannot describe how cozy and comfy your content is. I had a Japan trip planned for October, but had to cancel ;--; . So its nice to be vicariously prepping for Japan through your video
Hi Rena, I just found you and your video style is incredibly inspiring. Really cool stuff. The colors, the shots, the quirky editing, the music - all comes together to make for a really unique and interesting style. That I will analyzing into the oblivion to learn from. Thank you!
your color grading is to die for (on top of all of the absolutely flawless cinematography fundamentals that you and your partner always implement in all of your work)! I am also heading back to japan in january and I can't wait for your guys' next drop of japan vlog content because I lovedddd your prior ones (gave me a lot of inspiration for my trip earlier this year as well :D). also!! if I remember correctly, they completely STOPPED issuing/making the 2000 yen bills so they are super collectible and when I was in Japan in february this year, there were private buyers buying 2000 yen bills for ~6-7-8000 yen !! I got blessed by my american bank when I exchanged with them and they gave me 15 CRISPY 2000 yen bills and I have now stored them away as my $2 bills of Japan haha. okay sorry for the tangent but I hope yall have fun out there and again, cannot wait for the footage!!
omg thank you so much :') I'm glad you enjoyed those older vlogs, they're like digital time capsules for me!! And I had NO idea that they stopped making the 2000 yen bills. I'm going to go tuck mine away now 🤓
I say again that the comfort and professionalism that your videos give off are outstanding. The effort and camera knowledge is there along with that personal touch of traditional vlogging. You're definitely an inspiration (vibe) Please don't stop making videos.
this was such a great video i was so surprised with the tone because i feel like all other of the sort i've seen were just sooo overwhelming.. thank you so much i really enjoyed it!!
Exciting that you’re going to Japan! I went back in April and I’m just getting to edit all the footage I shot when I was there for a personal project. Looking forward to seeing your videos from your trip!
@@wegofilm it was great for me; I live in San Diego so it was pretty similar outside of a few humid moments (although most of my sweat came from me carrying my camera bag all the time 😅). Best day I had was in Aomori, got really lucky with the weather since I traveled to Hirosaki for their cherry blossom festival and it was the only sunny day out of a week of rain!
I just found your channel and i love your style! I’m surprised you don’t have more subscribers. Excited to see more of your videos and vlogs! I lived in japan in middle school for a year and a half and miss it. I was booked for a trip April 2020 with some of my best friends but sadly had to cancel. We all got married since then so it’s been harder to get everyone together and go again but hopefully will book another trip soon!
Thank you so much 🥺 I hope you're able to book a trip soon too!! I'm so curious on what middle school was like in Japan. I only went up to half of first grade so I barely remember what it's like but I have the image of it being strict there!
@@wegofilm thanks! My wife has never been to Japan so definitely on our list! I actually went to an international American school in Tokyo so not quite Japanese traditional strict but the standards were definitely higher! But I loved it.
@@jeffreyyahiro9704 I've been thinking about the future (having kids, where the raise them, etc.) and been considering international school in Japan as an option! I'm glad to hear that you had a good experience, thank you so much for sharing!
@@wegofilm yeah definitely! We’re in that stage as well. Honestly it’s a lot to think about! I went to the American school in Japan in Chofu and it was a really good experience. But obviously it’s been a while since I was there. Hope all goes well! I’ll be following your journey! Have fun on your trip!
@@jeffreyyahiro9704so much to think about!! I don’t want to leave Hawai’i but I want my future kids to be close to their grandparents, cousins, aunties/uncles 🥲 I will definitely be researching a bit into American/International schools in Japan. Thank you 🙏🙏
I remember summers at my grandmas house, there were SOOO many semi in our yard. I would SPRINT from the garage to the house because I was scared they were going to fly towards me! I'm glad to hear they're getting love from people like you :') hahah
Thanks so much for this in depth guide! Really appreciate the list and guidance. I imagine your partner's packing may have looked different, but any guidance on what he packed? Im headed there in November and want to be ready!
Yes of course! He actually just brought a bunch of clothes -- shorts, board shorts, t-shirts, a couple button-up shirts for dinner and just one long pants. I think for November, it will be much cooler so I would bring more long pants instead of shorts, longer sleeves, and things to layer on top!
Also you mentioned something about wearing the same outfits, I just wanted to say that I think it's okay to do that because it shows that you take care of the things you have and honestly so what if you wore the same thing twice your vlogs are already impressive.
not only is this beautifully shot but also super helpful and inspiring for my trip to Japan later this year 😍
hope you have an amazing trip Katie~~!!

Agree! Her colour grading it's sooo my type as well as the way she take the videos! Combine aesthetic of nature

Oooo I think the last time I went back to Japan during April was in elementary school, I'm curious on how the weather was!

Solid video but semi belong on the summer positives list. They add to the ambience of the season for a couple of weeks.🤙🏾

Also where did you get that camera bag?:o it’s cute!
It's from Billingham!
You don’t need to pack a lot to Japan as there’s GU and Uniqlo everywhere and it’s a great deal. We should of carried empty luggages
We both did some shopping at Uniqlo once we arrived too! 😗💸
한국도 한번 오세요😊
I would love to visit Korea :')
