Countryside Homestay Experience | Traditional Japan House In Akita
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 авг 2024
- It was my first time doing a homestay experience in the countryside of Japan but it sure was a very memorable and eye opening experience for me.
If you also want to stay here, email my friends at Akita Inu Tourism and they can help you contact Ishigaki-san and book for you in Japanese :) (English friendly - yay!)
akitainu.tourism@gmail.com
After Ishigaki-san retires, she wants to do this kind of homestay experience more and introduce more people to the beauty of the country side.
Here are all the activities I did in Akita:

I hope this video gave you some insight on what life can be like in the countryside of Japan! I love the countryside more as it's less explored by tourists so you really can see this "raw" kind of Japan and understand the local culture and history more.
Each prefecture has it's own speciality and history so what better way to immerse yourself in the culture than to try a homestay experience? :) I know a lot of you are worried if you can't speak Japanese but honestly you will be fine! It's not the language that matters, it's the connection between two people so step out of your comfort zone and try it. Japanese people in the countryside tend to be very friendly too and I'm sure they will give you a helping hand if you are lost even if they don't speak English.
If you do decide to go, let me know how your experience was and also tell Ishigaki-san I said hi! Hopefully she remembers me?! LOL
Have a good weekend everyone!!

What a lovely person that inn keeper is. I hope she is forever happy and healthy and i wish her the best.
She's 63 now but is very healthy and happy :) (she walks a lot faster than me :P) she actually owns her own shop(business) and does that for her main job but when she retires she wants to do this homestay experience more and show more people the countryside life. I really hope through this video it can reach more people and help her fulfil her dreams.
I love hiking in Japan, one of the main reasons is seeing the older Japanese hike up and down hills and mountains. They are so at peace and healthy. It is truly amazing and here in America we would learn so much from them.
I would love love love to go there in the countryside. Even if I had to help out on the vege patch! :p
@Clorox Bleach what were you expecting?
An Asian country that's not Asian?
Japan's countryside always looks so relaxing, peaceful and somewhat... mystical, you know? Like if there was a lingering ancient magic. I love it.
I don't know 😂😂😂

That tea room looked really nice. I now want to try kiritanpo, I've never had it before. And you got to drive a diesel train! 🚆
OMGGGG first

The elder woman is soo sweet and nice😊
Pratisha Damry yes 😉
This almost made me cry. I was born and raised in Japan and now I live in Peru .... I miss Japan my country .my home .
Why did you move
The last time I had sex was wtf???? 😂
The elder woman is pure gem - so loving and caring.
this old woman is really a kind person , i can easly see that she enjoyed your presence with her & made her happy ..thanks angela for treating her well & Kindly 🌹🎩
Aw this is such a sweet comment. Thank you for being so kind ☺️
I was expecting Totoro to pop up at anytime.
Same🤣
Happy Saturday everyone! Ishigaki-San is an amazing, kind hearted women and like she says in the video, after she retires she hopes to do more of these homestay experiences ☺️

P.s If you can't speak Japanese, you can still stay here!! Ishigaki-San is more than happy to welcome you :)
Here's my other Akita video if you want to see more about this place! ruclips.net/video/-SGNvKzGztg/видео.html
internationally ME 13:32 is the tunnel close to the people?
Your videos are amazing! Love them so much! Japan is so awesome and you make it even better! If you ever want a holiday, I suggest Melbourne(city I live in), it is the most livable city in the world.
Can you do a video about Tokyo's metro system and a video about supermarkets in Japan like Costco and local brands?
internationally ME I'll be in Akita on Feb 2018 to see Yokote Kamakura Festival. It will be my very first experience travel to Japan. Travel agents in my country didn't know anything about Yokote Kamakura Festival in Akita, I hope you could give a little bit information about it or give me suggestions or recommendations if there's any trusted travel agent in Japan that could help me to see the Yokote Kamakura Festival more easy-convenient because I'll bring my mom with me. I have to make sure everything well prepare.
hello! I loooove your videos! They are so full of sentiment and happines ♡♡♡ I would love to do your same homestay, but it really worries me that I could not cominocate with her :S
Such a sweet lady. People in Japan are good, kind and polite.
I want to live in Japan.
BTW great video
THE GREAT PICKS But can you imagine Japanese army kills millions of live, my grandfather’s family had been suffered a lot from Japan’s invading back to 1930s. For me, I don’t hate Japanese, but I still think they are scary.
No offence but,
*_weeb_*

@@ryansong1733 Every single human civilization has committed incredible atrocities towards their neighbours or their own people.
Remembering history is the most important thing us as humans can do, so we don't repeat it, but we shouldn't hold grudges.
@radio pilots That's why I said "grudges". "Hate" is a very strong word, which is why I didn't use it.
such a lovely lady, great video!!!
shut the fuck up
@@purephilth9577 no you, he was being nice
You can just see how kind and happy this woman is. All she wants is to make other people happy and its adorable. We should appreciate people like this more
Respect, honor and kindness defines Japanese culture . I've always loved and Japanese people from early childhood. If I visit Japan I'll visit the country side. Beautiful country side.
my boss will kill me if he found out that i watch youtube at work.
but this video worth the risk.
Hahaha what a ninja 😆
I watch youtube, stream movies, and finish whole series at my job. i can literally watch 8 hours of tv in a 12 hour shift if i wanted to. I watched freaking WestWorld
Fleek Dasheek wow, did your supervisor ever catch you?
Yes. It is a very mind numbing shipping and receiving job and i use it to keep sain. He doesnt mind so long as my work gets done
Rama Adhi PS just dont end up on the weird side of youtube
A dream...
I have always loved the Japanese, Japan, their style of life in the outskirts, the respect they have, and honor they hold.
Since I was very young I loved ANYTHING Japanese...
I now live in Madrid, Spain, mostly lived all my life in California. If I could I would live in Japan form a family there and learn as much as I could from the people there.
And live a simple life for the rest of my days...
A very nice video indeed, thank you so much for sharing :-)
WOW!!! That was totally awesome. I think if I ever moved to Japan I would move to the country side but not that far from the city. That way I could have the experience of both worlds. The food looked fantastic and the house was great. Thank you for another great video.
Totally :) get the best of both worlds! Btw, this place is close to a few cities like Akita city and Aomori!
Jon Haugen .
I really want to visit there. I had Japanese exchange students come stay with my family from Akita & they showed us pictures from their hometown & it’s honestly so beautiful. ❤️
Beautiful. All the best to the wonderful lady & hoping she stays healthy for a long time to come so others can experience this too.
I love that she’s figured out a way to open up her home and combat loneliness ♥️
Why am I tearing up? :')
Because the obaachan is just so sweet and kind ☺️
TashleyChisdale Because you are a emotional person that's why lol
SAME
Omg me too.the joy in the host,s face says it all
same :’)
This was by far the most interesting and heart warming video I've ever seen since I started watching vlogs about food and culture and travelling videos about Japan 3 years ago. It matched my interests perfectly, I don't know if I ever will make it to Japan even it's my biggest dream but this experience would be absolutely what I'm looking for. Don't get me wrong, Tokyo or other big cities are interesting, but I'm living rural and I need nature and silence to be happy, exploring such a pearl is my nr.1 on my bucket list, would love to listen to the her stories about life (well, needing a translator friend lol) s this video was just genius to be able to understand. I can't thank you enough, I just wish this can be preserved for many generations from now, such a lovely woman I hope she can be forever happy.

When you live in the city, life can become overwhelming sometimes...so at those times, please remember the warmth of the countryside and come here to rest and relax.
Countryside is the best
this Japanese woman you are visiting is so warm hearted, so calm, anyone can see what the cities are doing to us :( I am from a far away country, Romania, but I also feel the need for the countryside nature and quietness, and peace, and natural rhythm. I wish one day, soon, I may live in the country side..again
Namaste Japan🙏🏻
Love from INDIA ❤
Japanese people are so polite and generous. They welcome guests very warm heartedly.
Aim soo soo soo in love with the real Japan i love the country side (never have been) but all the video's i saw about it made me even more love japanse culture. I hope one day i can effort to visit the country of my dream!! Thank you for sharing this with us!! 🎌❤️🎌❤️🎌❤️🎌❤️🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵
This video is really good! My mom is from Akita. Everything is wonderful!
The way she handed you your bag before leaving to the hot spring makes her like my mom
Since I am a freak organised and clean lady I would feel like home. I would like to live in Japan, I love their houses, japanese are nice and I love their food.
This is a sweet video, full of TLC.
Because that's what I felt when I stayed here :)
Overall, an another great video from you, keep up the great work.
Easily your best video yet. Top notch editing and production.
Thanks Andrew!
That tunnel looks so much like Spirited Away, one of my favorite Japanese movies!!!! Normal blue car??? Kinda looks like the car in Spirited Away...
Bangyan Jin omg lol
Ghibli film gang!!
OMG Yeah!!!
That Nekko village reminds me Your Name
This is the "real" Japan...in the countryside with the kind,respectful and very active local people, the beautiful landscapes, the nature and the local food...keep uploading more videos like this whenever you can...great video edit by the way....also you got to drive a train for real??!!damn what's next a ship or a plane??just kidding :P
P.S. that tunnel must be a very scary place to cross in the night and it has a whole hidden village on the otherside lol
Traveling to the countryside like this, along the Sakura trees, the water and the fresh air is my dream.. I hope one day it can be possible
great video and i also experienced country side when i was in Japan. A great way to eacape the busy city vibe. Japan remains the most awesome country in the world to me
I'm crying because I'll never get to give that nice lady a hug and experience the joy she brings first hand. 🤧
I so enjoyed everything about this vid. I have been into video's about Japan, in the last two months. I would love to stay in that beautiful Inn, Sweet ladies. are so nice. Japan has so much beauty and culture.
seems like Japan's countryside needs more exploration.. I'm glad that I watched this video. this is something I can do all day long😍
#thanks #lovejapan
Phungswrang Boro ng boro sw matw haha!.😃
"Don't just see Japan"
"Experience it"
Me: *cries in student brat*
Arvin Villena its true tho. I went there for anime and loved the trad culture and experience as well
I'm proud of being a Japanese
☺️👍🏼
ングダムボッキ in English it would probably be better to say "I'm proud to be Japanese"
I like to live in remote Japanese village, but i don't know Japanese, can anybody help me. Thank you!!!
@Munia, thank you so much for your kind reply and advice, i have being to Japan for 3 times,
My two sons are learning Japanese,
I like and respect Japanese culture, Japanese people and japan.
Thank you so much again,
Are you from Japan,?
With best wishes,
Sajith
@Munia, then are you from which country?
I just can't wait to go back to Japan and visit all these amazing places! Thanks so much for making these beautiful videos, and it makes me feel happy to know how wonderful traditional Japan is!
Thank you for sharing this beautiful experience! Your channel is amazing I cannot wait to explore Japan
who the hell dislike this video
Simple... trolls😒
The japanese girl.
She has a very bad how to holding chopsticks.
It becomes very rude in Japan.
The Japanese girl is annoying because she is trying to be cute but is just silly 🙏
@@user-dwjn9muvxi0
LOL
@@sheemakarp6424 SHE IS TRYING TO BE SILLY IDIOT
In Japan, even the village very clean and organized, civilised people...I love the video full of nature and peace.
This is what I tell everyone, when you visit Japan you must visit the countryside. The people are so warm, kind hearted and welcoming. Thank you for posting.
This was a lovely video ME and I thoroughly enjoyed it. One of the reasons I am studying Japanese is so I can stay in smaller out the way places like this. I know you said you don't need to know Japanese to stay there but I can't help but think it would be imposing and uncomfortable for the people when they have to struggle to have basic communication with you. Out of respect I am learning Japanese. This video helps motivate me. Thanks for making it.
There was a big smile on my face the whole time ....... Loved the intro 😍
thank you InternationallyMe to make my day🙂
Makes me happy to hear that too 😊
subscribing to this channel is one of my biggest life acheivements haha.... I like everything about the channel🙂
This is by far my favorite video you’ve made, it makes me feel so wholesome.
Happines in my heart !!! These is the real LIFE ...Enjoyed the tradition ...Wonderful
I hit the like button before the video even started
You're awesome, Jamie! :D
Your videos are that good. Thanks a lot!
*Nothing better than watching you smile and being happy. You look amazingly beautiful, Angela.*
Thank you Angela for sharing your experience with us! My parents use to watch travel shows all the time and I said why watch it when you can't go, but as I'm older now I have learned to appreciate the beauty of this world :)
Aww that is just such a great way to phrase something. Thank you for making me smile with your comment and I hope you can see Japan some day!
I love how people are so kind and welcoming :)
wow it's really amazing ❤❤❤
Sugoi!! I like this better than the more common travel videos. Also, does she manage the inn alone? Something I noticed on my short visit to Japan is that you see fewer young people outside the city centers. More please! Arigato Gozaimasu!
"the hand movement is similar to milking a cow" I really respect this Lady!
This video was such a joy to watch! You can really notice the slower pace of life and overall how happy it seems!
Yes you do :) It was so nice! I didn't want to look through the lens all the time but I wish I could have taken more when I was talking with the other locals too!
久しぶりの動画アップ！待ってましたー(≧∀≦)
お待たせしましたーーー！(°▽°)
That place is amazing! And it's so nice to know it is open for anyone to stay in. The paintings really amazed me also.
the energy of that house SPEWS positive and loving energy it like, hit me in the face.
This video is so cute, thanks for making this video - it really showed me the other side of Japan since I live in Tokyo. I loved how the host of your homestay experience was an incredible human being with a very admirable history.
Wow, this has to be one of my favorite videos. That was such an amazing place to stay and the woman was just the sweetest person. The house was a very unique house, quite different from others I have seen in videos.
Such sweet and gracious lady ^^ I feel peace during this clip. Where is this region in Japan? Thanks for this video
Wow this is so amazing ! I hope to experience something like this one day 💕 . It's a chance to take a step away from chaos and stress in life and just enjoy the simple things and nature out there. Ishigaki-san is such a cute , caring and wise women I Adore her !!
Love your quote " Don't just see! Experience it "
Omg, I know being jealous is bad but I am so jealous rn I want to be there to 😁
Wow I'm really amazed I really love this video . You covered everything perfectly as always .love from saudi arabia
Thank you! And wow, Saudi Arabia - I really want to go some time!
This is so wonderful, it made me kind of emotional for some reason. This video is just so full of joy and happiness.
Thank you so much for sharing! It was so inspiring to see the joy of living and doing what you love. I absolutely loved it!
This is one of the things I want to experience when I go to Japan in the future, not to mention Akita is one of the places I wanna visit.
Definitely! If you check it out let me know how it was :)
It's still a long way to go though, I'm stillin college haha. :)
Your video are so clear and beautiful. I make similar style videos of California, hope you dont mind me taking some ideas from the videos you make.
Yeah, very glassy look, I wonder what camera she uses.
Panasonic G7!
Lovely video leaving waves of the art of life ingrained deep down in living close to the Nature. Thanks
Love it! Thank you for sharing the warmth and the authentic countryside of Japan

I really enjoyed that. Thank you for sharing.
I'm so glad that I discovered you. Thank you for sharing these videos.
I wish all youngsters from the hustle and bustle of city life visit the country side and involve themselves in such activities, Its the way life is meant to be lived!
This inn owner is so motherly and sweet! What a kind and beautiful face she has. I so want to visit her and experience the beautiful surroundings and her food! What a gem!
I just wish I understand Japanese. I would love to talk to her and learn from her the old ways.
I love all your videos! You are an amazing ambassador for Japan!
Japan is beautiful. We are about to conclude our 3 weeks vacation here before heading back to US. We have used your videos to guide us. Thank you!
How lovely - I am coming on my next trip! Thank you for opening these Japanese doors to us.
That was beautiful and looked like so much fun! What a great way to destress from the city. Your home stay looked like the most wonderful time.
I've spent the whole day watching your videos. They are the best. Seriously, the best. Thank you for existing.
Great vid. My wife and I are planning to be in Japan and this is exactly what I want to experience. Thanks for posting
Amazing video. Truly worth the watch, ever single second of it. Thank you.
I absolutely loved the video! You did a great job creating it and it was lovely to share in your experience staying with Ishigaki-san. Thank you!
Her stories filled her loved ones with such life. I cried when you had to leave, I didn't want her to stay alone, she was so sweet 😔
So enjoyable watching this. So glad that somebody is taking the time to stop and appreciate life.
Your channel is the best Angela. I can not thank you enough for making these videos. Love from New Mexico ❤️
Ahhhh..another inspiring video to venture outside of Tokyo. Thank you Angela for the beautiful footage and showing us the sweet countryside hospitality. I'm sure all of us watching wish we could just dive in and join you there!
Just amazing! Thanks for making the most premium quality videos!
Your videos show that you put a lot of hard work in making them and this indicates that your channel will grow bigger and bigger!
Thanks for such genuine and pure videos
I've had a fairly stressful work week, but after watching this, I began to feel peaceful once again....Thank you.
Awesome this is why I hope to visit Japan one of these days.
Japan is still preserving and respecting the nature well. Akita in Japan is heaven like town. Thanks Angela bringing is to peace again.
Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful experience with everyone here. I’m hoping to one day visit Japan again; was there once for two days in Osaka back in 1986 and really didn’t have time to see anything. I love traveling and learning about other cultures; spend three of my military one year tours in Korea and learned a lot while there and hopefully get to visit for a longer time in Japan the next time and possibly a few other countries as well.
Oh wow this ladies Uncle was so productive...the paintings the building all were so beautiful...what a talented person And the lady was so super nice
The lady is so sweet with all of her sweet gestures wow
Watching videos like this is the sole purpose I'm opening youtube these days. Thank you
your videos are so addictive. I want to watch every single one of them, one after the other. it's so well done. I like how you take your traveling experience and turn them into inspirational journeys, it's as if we've been there. Thank you
Her house is very modern-looking and looks sturdy and well-built. Her uncle and his siblings did a great job with it. It's very fancy compared to a lot of countryside houses I saw in the provincial parts of Japan before. It reminds me of those houses that wealthy people lived in a long time ago.
This video is wholesome, I love it. The old lady is sweet.
