    My "14 days in Japan" itinerary is now available on my shop: 👉shop.allansu.com/b/0Y5f9
    This is an updated itinerary based on this video and my trips to Japan. The itinerary will cover day-to-day activities, transportation between cities, hotels, restaurants, and a travel budget. I've also included a "Custom Google Maps" for Japan with saved pins and locations that follows the itinerary.

      @@lalinski2322 Listen do NOT let ANYONE convince you not to do everything ur doing right. You planning everything out and learning japanese and figuring out everything u wanna do n see when u get there. Is the way to go. Before your any where near close going figure out EVERYTHING u need to do to get there n everything u wanna do once ur there. Figuring everything out ahead of time is the BEST way to do it. Most ppl dont do that and even if they had fun theres alot they didnt get to do or see cuz they didnt plan it all out. So they ended up not having enough time or missing things like festivals and parties. I STRONGLY advise u to go when there are festivals n plan accordingly. You will DEFF want to see the Cherry Blossom festival. My friend went n brought me back videos n pics n it WILL BLOW UR MIND AT HOW BEAUTIFUL IT IS!! I would also advise u to plan out everything u wanna n then ADD 2 to 3 more days on top of that. That will give u time to recover from jet lag when u get there. So ur first day u dont do anything but get to the hotel n relax and go over EVERYTHING!! next day start doing it all. The day before last again just stay at the hotel n relax. Then the next day go home. This will help you out LIKE CRAZY!! Getting that rest the day u get there n the last day before u leave will give u all the energy u will need n help u calm urself down. Cuz ur gonna be INSANELY hyper n ready to go full tilt. Of course it will cost extra for them 2 days. But it WILL be worth ur while. One thing I HIGHLY advise u to do is right now before ur anywhere near going go on facebook or even dating sites or forums and find a couple of ppl that live there in the area ull mostly be at. Become GOOD friends with them. This WILL help you out tremendously. It will all be 1000X's BETTER if u have a friend that lives there. They can show u around and take u out to places that tourists normally do not go to ya know off the beaten track. And there are a bunch of places u will NOT be allowed into if ur a tourist. BUT if u have a local wit u they will let u in. Outta everything I said the 2 main ones u REALLY need to listen 2 is the rest days and becoming friends wit a local. If u do those 2 things u will have the BEST TIME OF UR LIFE!!! Of course u can just tell me to fuck off. But ppl like us that love Japan so much it will make it so much fun. That ull purposely find me again just to say how great it was that u listened to me. Also if u need ANY help AT ALL wit japan or have questions just hit me up at eiacopelli@gmail.com and I'll get back to u right away. Oh another tip make sure u ALWAYS AND I MEAN ALWAYS keep ir ID n Passpost with u EVERY SINGLE TIMEBU LEAVE THE HOTEL!! if u want more advice or help just email me and I'll help u out the best I can. But even if I never hear from u again just HAVE THE TINE OF UR LIFE THERE!!! Ur payment to me for the advice will come to be Videos n pics of ur time in Japan 😁

    I am a Japanese living in Osaka. What I want foreigners who come to Japan to experience is late-night rental cycling in Tokyo. It's strange for a Japanese person like me to say this, but Japan is safe. I think that's why tourism is possible. I used to do late-night cycling in Tokyo, and it was an unforgettable memory. I'd like everyone to taste it too!
    I used a translation app, so I think it's a little strange English, so please forgive me. We are waiting for the day when you can come to Japan!

      In Japan🇯🇵, there is a law that says that a person is not guilty of sexual intercourse with a saint if he or she is 13 years old and sexually consensual. 13 years old is the age when a person has just graduated from elementary school.
      Also, a law was passed this month that allows high school students to perform in adult films.
      The number of sex crimes against children is increasing every year.

I've travelled to some places and I've had dreams of them for decades afterwards because it's such an immersive sensory experience.

    I am a Japanese living in Okinawa.
    There are 47 prefectures in Japan, and I think that each of the 47 prefectures has 47 different charms. That's why I love this country. In addition to sushi, ramen, and sukiyaki, each prefecture has its own traditional cuisine, traditional culture, and wonderful scenery.
    For example, in Okinawa, where I was born and raised, there are many other unique Okinawan dishes such as Okinawa soba, goya chanpuru, pawpaw, and sata andagi. Also, since Okinawa was originally a single country called the Ryukyu Kingdom, it has its own culture and history. Karate is also a sport that originated in Okinawa. In terms of music, Sanshin, Eisa, and Kachaashi are famous. As you can see, Japan has more than just one attraction. I would like you to travel to Japan and find your favorite prefecture.

    Your camera work was incredibly amazing! You obviously didn't even use a drone yet you were also able to capture the scenery in the best ways possible. My jaw dropped when the screen switched to Hida Folk Village scene. Your minimal edits to the colors delivered the realest atmosphere and I definitely felt like I was there traveling throughout the entire video, the mountain scene at the onsen was my fav part. Also your voiceover was very clean and professional. Hope to see more Japan's videos from you in the future!

      @@silis_pap8473 for a first timer, that is good enough for the experience! And it all depends on your personality as well. I would have rather stayed in Kyoto a little more longer because I loved the chill vibes (still crowded tho), the history and landscape. Tokyo was more fast paced and much more crowded for me that sometimes it would tire me out. So it all depends on what you like.

    Thank you Allan for this amazing video, we pretty much followed your route after watching the Iceland video and visited last June. I came across this video whilst staying in Kyoto a few days ago, I started to watch and recognized your calm voice from the Iceland video and so watched this through. (I also subscribed of course). Our next destination was Osaka, but after watching your video, we decided to go to Koyasan first. I had never heard of the place and would definitely have missed it. We went yesterday - 19th February 2023, it was was raining hard, misty and fairly cold (snow on the ground). We started with the Danjō-garan temple complex and had the place completely to ourselves, the rain and mist added to the experience and was one of the best days of my life. We have travelled to over 40 countries including many over the past 9 months and Koyasan for me rates right up there with the best places in the world. We also spent a fair while at the Cemetery which was also an amazing experience that we will not forget. Thank you so much for letting us know about this place and for making such awesome videos. We will definitely check where Allan went before finalizing out itinerary in future!
