This would not happen in America, I can't believe that the price became LOWER. I was starting this video thinking that Robin-san was going to be sad about the changes. That's so amazing that they increased the hours!
i also think that in america there is a culture of entitlement which is so profound. which would make it hard for establishments to maintain upkeep due to bad etiquette.
The price didn't become lower. The amount of time that you got for the price became longer. So you could argue that the value has increased. But the price is not lower.
I know it's a business and they do what they do to make money but it's a great thing. It helps the homeless or those less fortunate have a way of keeping dignity. Staying clean, having clean clothes and getting a good night's rest all help keep someone's morale up. Falling into despair is what makes people give up. I think this business helps keep the disparity for many in check. Subarashii, man!
It is not for the homeless. It is for all the salaryman that have missed their last train. Or are You saying there is a ton of homeless people in Japan?
@@Abluemoon9112I know it ain't for the homeless. I'm just saying it's great that they have access to such a thing. Look at the video's title. Even that would make one think they're utilized by the homeless more than people assume. I'm pretty well versed about Japan. They do have a good amount of homeless. Far less than most first world countries but they're there. The country just does a good job at hiding them and they're not as easy to point out because they don't have a rampant drug issue like the US and they're not just roaming the streets like zombies.
And it also keeps them safe, as homeless people are targets for random acts of violence, especially at night while they are sleeping. Our government should be taking notes. There is no excuse for why we have so many homeless people in North America. The government could give people business start up money (like they already do) but to start something like this in each city, and see how it goes.
@hotcrazycatladyme168 this not for homeless people. If anything this a bandaid for larger problems. Instead of giving people affordable housing, people are paying money to live in a closet? JFC you people have a hard on for Japan with zero understanding of the situation
@@hotcrazycatladyme168This wouldn't work in the US, unfortunately. Too much theft and vandalism. A place like this would go out of business in a month.

The thing, civilized people in Japan use the facilities with the intention to survive and get better, and even seek help. The homeless in the west are drug addicted, self helpless and destructive and dangerous to themselves and others, beginning with the fact they will huff anything for a quick high indicating self destructive behavior before any kind of seeking for better avenues. Thus, it is not only unfeasible to have the same in the west, the fact most homeless people will fight for scraps of against those willing to lend a hand shows that despite being desperate they have no morality and willingness to help themselves or let themselves be guided back to a stable road. These people utilize your kindness against you, and many a times already come ready with diseases and multiple mental ones that prevent them from performing. The civilized homeless people, even those living under a bridge are there to survive, their shelters are moveable and they are quite amicable to being helped and takes care of their hygiene minimally, and if you ever helped one, you can see the genuine appreciation in their eyes.
When I went to Japan for my first trip my airline lost my baggage. I had to stay at the airport with an expensive hotel for a few days. Because of the low funds I had, I got to try MANY different internet cafe's (mostly by Kaikatsu club) throughout all of Japan and they were all superb in quality. I managed to save money so I could still do everything I wanted. Japan has it really good with these around.
You should get sponsored by that Internet cafe man. Each prefecture you go to could feature you staying at their locations all over Japan and gives you a decent place to stay warm at night…
3 hours wind down, 7 hours sleep and 2 hours preparation for the day? Perfect! Helps a lot to cope with your day. Tell the cafes management that their changes are very much appreciated here as well, on the other side of the planet!
@@johnbutler2780 Because those aren't the hours you're staying there; Those are just the hours you have to arrive to get the 12 hour package. If you would have watched the video (specifically 9:00) he would have answered your question. Maybe watch the video *before* you comment...
My husband and I were homeless in California for ten years; god, I wish we had it like this. We both subscribe to your channel. We wish you the best NOMAD SAAAAAAN! ps I also love coca cola!!!
We we're "close" to being homeless here in the PHILIPPINES but I can't imagine the hardships for you especially in the US, glad to see comments like this with optimism 🙏
@@Burrungus_G Individualism doesn't promote respect.. the opposite usually, selfishness. We see that on display with that idiot Johnny Somali. Karma comes around, eventually.
We use to have similar in the US, they were called SRO (Single Room Occupancy) hotels. But the elitists outlawed them because of NIMBY, they didn't want "poor people" in the neighborhood. So they lobbied government to outlaw them under the excuse that the SROs were "drug dens" and "health hazards". So then instead of SROs we now have people sleeping on the sidewalk, then these city elites dare to call themselves progressives and getting rid of the SROs was progressive, disgusting.
20:16 What really helps me is I've used a wrap around eye mask (just a circle piece of black fabric) and silicon earplugs for the past 4-5 years and I sleep like a brick despite what's happening in the outside. Especially the past year it's helped, as I've also been dwellingless, living in a tent right next to train tracks; as you can imagine, the trains don't ever stop coming all night, until like 3am. The $5.99 pack of 20 earplugs I got on Amazon awhile ago have been putting in a lot of work lol.
lol i use silicon ear plugs too, i cant sleep without them now. i also use a white noise machine to block more of the airborne sounds. i have noisy neighbors that live above and this really helps.
i remember i used to be homeless at one point i never had places like this where i live i had to spend my night at bus station or parking lots etc... now i have my own apartment and run my own business. i always loved japan and that love will never change. you keep going brother i wish you all the best. god is great ❤
This video just popped up in my feed & I'm lovin' the vibes. A couple years ago I was homeless & living in a tent in the woods along with a few friends. Every other day or so I would load up all of our electronics & head to a local park where I would spend the night charging everything. If you happen to read this I want you to know that watching you explain your process was 100% the most relatable moment I have ever experienced through social media. Thank you for that! I'm so excited to see more of your adventures.
Robin-san! You are amazing! I love following your adventures and listening to your stories and advice. Keep pushing, drinking Coke, and being the sweet and kind person you are. You’ve got this!
Can’t get enough of the little comedic moments in your videos. Asking animal-sans to buy your merch or the chin-chin train joke! 😂 They’re now pretty much inside jokes amongst subscribers
I'm a truck driver and that extra 4 hours is a massive difference. We are charged $10 and that only gives us a parking space for the truck that is not even ours. The trucking company does not compensate us for that. Also if you want anything else that costs extra. Like you want a shower that's an $10 to $20 extra. I cant read Japanese but I would assume that you could buy mutable packages back to back. You could buy a two hour package to do all of the things you need to do before sleeping. Buy the 8 hour package to sleep. Then buy another 2 hour package to do all of the things before heading out. Yes that would cost a lot more but its still far more cheaper than renting a hotel room. Can you not use a converter to charge your stuff from the motor bikes battery?
Cokesan was hilarious, not saying good or bad,we know! 1. If you need more time, can you add on to the pkg of time to sleep or edit more? 2. Do you bring your mattress pad in Cafe? 3. Instead of mattress getting the elements, can you put in in the extra bag your friend gave for skateboard?
I'm so glad youtube reccomended me this video it's always impressive seeing people persevere no matter the circumstances I believe in you're van life plan
i've never been this addicted to a youtuber in my life lol honestly i love your videos and livestreams robin and i can't wait until van life 200k subs by the end of the year will happen.
@@Tyler-xf6fd sure he has more money than the average homeless person but he's not financially stable to the point where he can afford a car and a house or anything that he would actually need in order to live semi-comfortably , to say he's leaching is kind of disrespectful due to the fact that he's not asking anybody to send him money or items , he really does put effort into his videos and into his journey so that still counts me in as a fan no matter how financially stable he is , he is not leaching and if you think he is then you can think that way but at the end of the day it's clear that he does not have a home and that he's not as financially stable as you think he is.
@@Tyler-xf6fd holy fuck you are such a freak how could you say that about someone who literally volunteered to be homeless to chase their dream, has documented every step of the way of it for us and worked super hard to make this channel only for it to ACTUALLY WORK to the point where he can make a below-livable wage even if you're trolling this is such a dogshit thing to say. how about you go homeless and start a channel. take the risk. let us know how it goes.
I have lived travelling in a car and had the same issues. So many little things take up so much time and you can't always multitask. A simple thing like a wet towel can be trouble, you can't always dry it outside, you can't leave it in a bag, you can't air it out. I ended up buying a dog towel, it's smaller, like a travel towel and dries faster. Charging devices is always a problem. I bought a 100500 mAh battery. I can charge that in 6 hours and then I could charge things as I travelled around.
I only drink water, and one coffee in the mornings these days, but I rember when thirsty an ice cold coke from a machine just hits different!!! Bottles are also top tier, but still not quite as syrupy as the machine stuff, that stuff is just nectar when gasping xD.
Japanese design is very good, always with the people in mind. In other less expensive hostels, normally bathrooms are normally big halls with small rooms and the washing sink are shared by quests. This is an independent room for one person.
That was an angry bird! The Christmas cloak was perfect on him. You are a hard worker. I never realized how much work it took to be a RUclipsr. Much respect Robin.
I'm happy to see that you're moving forward! I was very close to becoming homeless myself, but I got lucky and found a job that will pay all of my bills. Keep your head up high! It is rare to get genuine content from the heart on youtube nowadays. Much love from the US!
In order to enable u to charge many electronic devices at same time, u should have electric extensions, with 10 to 20 electric sockets, so u can charge 10 to 20 devices all at same time
I've been following your channel for quite a while and just wanted to say its refreshing to see someone so content with very little possessions and always sounding positive, here in Australia and most of the western world we are so caught up in having the best car, house, phone ect. we forget how lucky we are to even be alive and in good health. I am coming to Japan for my first time in January and depending on where we both are id love to meet you and shake your hand. Oshiete kurete arigatō.
I’ve subscribed to you awhile back but I went through a lot of medical challenges and now I can watch again, hope you are doing well, you seem to be doing so much better than you were before, cheers brother! ❤
6pm to 4am is technically 10hrs, no? Nomad Saaan! I'm so glad I came across your videos. You are enjoying a quality of life that 90% of global "homeless" can only dream of. Keep living your life, you are an inspiration to many 😊 🙏🏾
It is a little hard to understand, but it says that if you purchase time between 6PM to 4AM, you can stay 12 hours. It used to be 8PM to 4AM, and you would only get 8 hours. So not only do you get 4 more hours, they made it so you can get there earlier and sign in.
Honestly I did this in my country, I was homeless at a young age due to some wild circumstances, didn't have any 'safety net' or help and things got rough. My Net cafe was open 8am - 2am, but didn't have all the amenities that Japanese net cafe's have. It would cost $20 for an 'all day' which was from 8am - 8pm and was $2 an hour so I could stay there till 2am for $32 a day. Had cheaper food, a toilet, and the booths were kind of private. So I could sleep early from about 6pm till 1am'ish and just stay awake till 8am the next day. I did this for almost a year and thankfully the staff knew me as a 'regular' so they would even let me 'IOU' a few times. It was a 'safe' space as the streets were known for homeless getting mugged or harrassed, so thankfully I had that option. I'm in a much better place now but I will always be thankful that I had that option available. This netcafe would be a dream to anyone struggling and I hope it gets the respect it deserves so that this business model can continue for those who truly need it.
I think you should have earplugs and an eye mask for sleeping in those places. You will have better sleep if you use those things! Great video, thank you for sharing your lifestyle with us.
There's always a sense of serenity and calm in all your videos. I love watching your journey and always hope for your best and for you to keep your health! Stay strong brother and best success for you!
dude this is actually awesome. you deserve all the subs you can get. you edit all day inside these places and barely make it by. you are an inspiration
You found a perfect customer :) Never seen a bird dressed so fancy. Could use Nomad-merch 100% Some birds are great travelers! The internet cafe is decent and so are you, sponsoring would fit so well.
Love watching your videos. To make your charging faster, get an extension cord with a lot of outlets on it. That way, you can charge them all at once, so you dont have to wait and just enjoy your sleep. Keep up the good work!
Bro, I like how your lifestyle is. So different to mine, I work at a big warehouse doing physical sweating type work. I like my job, I like my cushy comfortable apartment, im used to my routine and car and everything is good in my life. But your life, this nomad traveling style is awesome from looking from afar. I hope you stay safe. Them internet cafe’s need to come to America, we either got motels or hotels. Usually with shitty wifi and limited cleaning services or perks. I hope you stack that cheddar til you get this vanlife going. Them vanlife channels be popular. And you already growing now. Keep grinding 🙏🏽
Im rewatching your Internet cafe stays as I do like seeing you go in an indoor place that’s so cheap yet you can have a decent rest & accommodation. Totally worth it for a much more decent sleep.
It's fun to watch you do small things to stay considerate whilst making these videos, like speaking quietly in your booth or going into the telephone booth to talk when it was late and people are sleeping.
13:12 I’m so glad you have a flat bed to sleep because I heard some cafes only have the chair which is impossible to sleep. That would be a nightmare for sure 😓
It's so quiet and clean there. No drunks or addicts passed out in their own urine. I have seen homeless shelters in the US where people sleep on the floor and they are made to clean the shelter if they wish to stay there
100% agree. I was homeless in Australia for almost 2 years, I went to a homeless shelter once and didn't even make it through the front door before I turned around and left. Sadly most homeless people here are absolutely fucked, there's no nice way to put it. They have either completely fried their brains with drugs or have very serious mental illnesses, neither of which you want to be around. I ended up mainly sleeping on the beach in the sand dunes. It was good for 9 months of the year, winter was a bit shit especially the rainy nights but beggars cant be choosers, and I'd take that over dealing with the bullshit you would in a homeless shelter every day of the week.
Watch some electronics videos, figure out how to tap Moped San's electrical system to install some USB power outlets so you can charge while you ride. (Make so it only has power when the engine is running and you won't ever have to worry about accidentally draining your bike battery.)
You might see if Maeda-san can help you rig up some solar panels on the lids of your cases or something similar. You can get water proof (ip65 should be fine), small panels to charge your battery banks while you drive. I'm sure I'm not alone on this but I would gladly help sponsor that (or other) upgrades. Keep the faith bro, I'm looking forward to the next one as always. Let's gooooooo!!
Their streets are freshly paved and painted. Their sidewalks are clean. No dope dealers in the streets. Stuff can be left out overnight without fear of theft. Wild.
trust me the sidewalks are not always clean. lots of japanese will break the "rules" all the time for some reason you can leave your phone unattended but if you leave your umbrella it will get stolen
I live in Wyoming, USA. We had one or two internet cafes, for a very short time, less than a year. Now they are all gone. The only warm 24-hour businesses are some grocery stores or even fewer restaurants. You could go to a truck stop for a shower and buy a meal too. But there is nowhere except a hotel where you are allowed to sleep.
Just a FYI... you can charge your USB devices on the desktop front panel. It may not be as strong as the power outlet, but if you are staying there for 12 hours it should charge your phone and other small battery devices easily
This would not happen in America, I can't believe that the price became LOWER. I was starting this video thinking that Robin-san was going to be sad about the changes. That's so amazing that they increased the hours!
It says “limited time only”, so it’s a promotion and not a price cut.
It helps that the Japanese are civilized people. in America something like this would get trashed out of existence.
i also think that in america there is a culture of entitlement which is so profound. which would make it hard for establishments to maintain upkeep due to bad etiquette.
The price didn't become lower. The amount of time that you got for the price became longer. So you could argue that the value has increased. But the price is not lower.
Drug addicts and other trouble makers would ruin it for everyone.

What authorities dont seem to realise is that genuine homeless people (ie NOT dosers) do NOT want to be around other homeless people.
6pm to 4am is only 10 hours
There's also little hotels when you're getting back on your feet you can stay at they're not great, but if you're rebuilding your life it can be an option once you have a job.

3 hours wind down, 7 hours sleep and 2 hours preparation for the day? Perfect! Helps a lot to cope with your day. Tell the cafes management that their changes are very much appreciated here as well, on the other side of the planet!
or 2 hour wind down, 9 sleep and 1 preparation :)
@@runatrix No variation makes from 6pm - 4 am = 12 hours . That's my problem
How is that 12 hours? 6-4 is 10. I don’t get it.
@@johnbutler2780 If you enter between 6pm and 4am, you are entitled to 12 hours from entry I believe.
@@johnbutler2780 Because those aren't the hours you're staying there; Those are just the hours you have to arrive to get the 12 hour package.

My husband and I were homeless in California for ten years; god, I wish we had it like this. We both subscribe to your channel. We wish you the best NOMAD SAAAAAAN!
ps I also love coca cola!!!
youre both really strong , i hope better days are ahead for you both
California is crazy. If not my husband works here I wouldn't live here.
We we're "close" to being homeless here in the PHILIPPINES but I can't imagine the hardships for you especially in the US, glad to see comments like this with optimism 🙏
@@elsasun yeah that's why this business model doesn't work in America, the craziness is destructive
@@Burrungus_G Individualism doesn't promote respect.. the opposite usually, selfishness. We see that on display with that idiot Johnny Somali. Karma comes around, eventually.
You seem like a cool dude, here's something for your next stay. :)
I appreciate that!
Brother, with all my heart... respect. Do your thing, never give up. DO NOT GIVE UP !
Robin and moped-san drive safe and sleep well
Internet Cafe in Japan, makes me so jealous. Thank you for the tour and update. Have a great weekend.
We use to have similar in the US, they were called SRO (Single Room Occupancy) hotels. But the elitists outlawed them because of NIMBY, they didn't want "poor people" in the neighborhood. So they lobbied government to outlaw them under the excuse that the SROs were "drug dens" and "health hazards". So then instead of SROs we now have people sleeping on the sidewalk, then these city elites dare to call themselves progressives and getting rid of the SROs was progressive, disgusting.
20:16 What really helps me is I've used a wrap around eye mask (just a circle piece of black fabric) and silicon earplugs for the past 4-5 years and I sleep like a brick despite what's happening in the outside. Especially the past year it's helped, as I've also been dwellingless, living in a tent right next to train tracks; as you can imagine, the trains don't ever stop coming all night, until like 3am. The $5.99 pack of 20 earplugs I got on Amazon awhile ago have been putting in a lot of work lol.
lol i use silicon ear plugs too, i cant sleep without them now. i also use a white noise machine to block more of the airborne sounds. i have noisy neighbors that live above and this really helps.
i remember i used to be homeless at one point i never had places like this where i live i had to spend my night at bus station or parking lots etc... now i have my own apartment and run my own business. i always loved japan and that love will never change. you keep going brother i wish you all the best. god is great ❤
This video just popped up in my feed & I'm lovin' the vibes. A couple years ago I was homeless & living in a tent in the woods along with a few friends. Every other day or so I would load up all of our electronics & head to a local park where I would spend the night charging everything.
If you happen to read this I want you to know that watching you explain your process was 100% the most relatable moment I have ever experienced through social media. Thank you for that! I'm so excited to see more of your adventures.
Broooo the shower. 🤣😂 You make me laugh so hard.
Fight on Robin-san! Van life!! 😁
haha I couldn't help but crack up too
Yup! I laughed my ass off at that moment. 😅😂
That part are straight out JAV videos 🤣🤣🤣
Was having a rough day myself, but seeing you so excited from the amazing news put a smile on my face. Best vibes from Canada.
Wish we had something like this for little weekend road trips.
I'm from Canada as well, I hope you feel abit better. Internet cafe's here aren't as nice haha
Robin-san! You are amazing! I love following your adventures and listening to your stories and advice. Keep pushing, drinking Coke, and being the sweet and kind person you are. You’ve got this!
Let’s gooooooo!!!!
Such a good comment we love you Robin-san
for you
I'm glad I found your channel, this is a true reality in Japan.
I'm happy when you stay internet cafe. It must seem like luxury when you are camping so much in parks.
Yes I love it❤️
Awesome deal for 12 hours. You should get a rain cover for moped-san just in case.
I should🙏
@@NomadPush Hey! I love, I love mopeds so of course yours too, what kind is it?
6pm to 4am is only 10 hours
@@muchosgracias3764i think that’s the time you can check in between. Then 12 hours from your check in. if i’m not misunderstanding!
@@NomadPushthis is nice video and info broo
Can’t get enough of the little comedic moments in your videos. Asking animal-sans to buy your merch or the chin-chin train joke! 😂 They’re now pretty much inside jokes amongst subscribers
In America they'd start charging by the hour and call it flexible.
I'm a truck driver and that extra 4 hours is a massive difference.
We are charged $10 and that only gives us a parking space for the truck that is not even ours. The trucking company does not compensate us for that. Also if you want anything else that costs extra. Like you want a shower that's an $10 to $20 extra.
I cant read Japanese but I would assume that you could buy mutable packages back to back. You could buy a two hour package to do all of the things you need to do before sleeping. Buy the 8 hour package to sleep. Then buy another 2 hour package to do all of the things before heading out. Yes that would cost a lot more but its still far more cheaper than renting a hotel room.
Can you not use a converter to charge your stuff from the motor bikes battery?
You got this brother, from America, we believe in you!
145 K well done , 200 K for Christmas 🎄🎁✨️🏆
Let’s gooooooo!!!!!
Cokesan was hilarious, not saying good or bad,we know!
1. If you need more time, can you add on to the pkg of time to sleep or edit more?
2. Do you bring your mattress pad in Cafe?
3. Instead of mattress getting the elements, can you put in in the extra bag your friend gave for skateboard?
No idea why YT algo recommended your channel but I am glad it did. Subbed.
Congrats on hitting your subscribers target for 2024, brother.
I'm so glad youtube reccomended me this video it's always impressive seeing people persevere no matter the circumstances I believe in you're van life plan
i've never been this addicted to a youtuber in my life lol
honestly i love your videos and livestreams robin and i can't wait until van life
200k subs by the end of the year will happen.
Cool!! Super happy to hear that❤️
dude is optionally homeless not financially, remember that. them times have passed for him. he's just leaching at this point.
@@Tyler-xf6fd sure he has more money than the average homeless person but he's not financially stable to the point where he can afford a car and a house or anything that he would actually need in order to live semi-comfortably , to say he's leaching is kind of disrespectful due to the fact that he's not asking anybody to send him money or items , he really does put effort into his videos and into his journey so that still counts me in as a fan no matter how financially stable he is , he is not leaching and if you think he is then you can think that way but at the end of the day it's clear that he does not have a home and that he's not as financially stable as you think he is.
@@Tyler-xf6fd holy fuck you are such a freak
how could you say that about someone who literally volunteered to be homeless to chase their dream, has documented every step of the way of it for us and worked super hard to make this channel only for it to ACTUALLY WORK to the point where he can make a below-livable wage
even if you're trolling this is such a dogshit thing to say. how about you go homeless and start a channel. take the risk. let us know how it goes.
@@KYOSHIHUE🙏❤️🙏
I have lived travelling in a car and had the same issues. So many little things take up so much time and you can't always multitask. A simple thing like a wet towel can be trouble, you can't always dry it outside, you can't leave it in a bag, you can't air it out. I ended up buying a dog towel, it's smaller, like a travel towel and dries faster.
Charging devices is always a problem. I bought a 100500 mAh battery. I can charge that in 6 hours and then I could charge things as I travelled around.
I only drink water, and one coffee in the mornings these days, but I rember when thirsty an ice cold coke from a machine just hits different!!! Bottles are also top tier, but still not quite as syrupy as the machine stuff, that stuff is just nectar when gasping xD.
Never seen so much ppl donate to a channel like this! Thats good and keep making these good videos
Japanese design is very good, always with the people in mind. In other less expensive hostels, normally bathrooms are normally big halls with small rooms and the washing sink are shared by quests. This is an independent room for one person.
That was an angry bird! The Christmas cloak was perfect on him.
You are a hard worker. I never realized how much work it took to be a RUclipsr. Much respect Robin.
Bird was angry he never got to wreck some pigs 😆
I'm happy to see that you're moving forward!
I was very close to becoming homeless myself, but I got lucky and found a job that will pay all of my bills.
Keep your head up high! It is rare to get genuine content from the heart on youtube nowadays.
Much love from the US!
Watching you finally getting some sleep and knowing that you'll be getting a full nights rest is so cathartic.
In order to enable u to charge many electronic devices at same time,
u should have electric extensions,
with 10 to 20 electric sockets,
so u can charge 10 to 20 devices all at same time
I've been following your channel for quite a while and just wanted to say its refreshing to see someone so content with very little possessions and always sounding positive, here in Australia and most of the western world we are so caught up in having the best car, house, phone ect. we forget how lucky we are to even be alive and in good health. I am coming to Japan for my first time in January and depending on where we both are id love to meet you and shake your hand. Oshiete kurete arigatō.
I love the picture you three took together. You have some good friends.
🥰
I’ve subscribed to you awhile back but I went through a lot of medical challenges and now I can watch again, hope you are doing well, you seem to be doing so much better than you were before, cheers brother! ❤
6pm to 4am is technically 10hrs, no? Nomad Saaan! I'm so glad I came across your videos. You are enjoying a quality of life that 90% of global "homeless" can only dream of. Keep living your life, you are an inspiration to many 😊 🙏🏾
It is a little hard to understand, but it says that if you purchase time between 6PM to 4AM, you can stay 12 hours. It used to be 8PM to 4AM, and you would only get 8 hours. So not only do you get 4 more hours, they made it so you can get there earlier and sign in.
That is the book in time frame.
That's enter beween those hours, and you can stay 12 hours after your check in time.
@user-ov4wr5yu4r ohh I see now, thank you for the clarification, that makes sense and is great price for 12hrs stay
Honestly I did this in my country, I was homeless at a young age due to some wild circumstances, didn't have any 'safety net' or help and things got rough.
My Net cafe was open 8am - 2am, but didn't have all the amenities that Japanese net cafe's have. It would cost $20 for an 'all day' which was from 8am - 8pm and was $2 an hour so I could stay there till 2am for $32 a day. Had cheaper food, a toilet, and the booths were kind of private. So I could sleep early from about 6pm till 1am'ish and just stay awake till 8am the next day. I did this for almost a year and thankfully the staff knew me as a 'regular' so they would even let me 'IOU' a few times. It was a 'safe' space as the streets were known for homeless getting mugged or harrassed, so thankfully I had that option. I'm in a much better place now but I will always be thankful that I had that option available.
This netcafe would be a dream to anyone struggling and I hope it gets the respect it deserves so that this business model can continue for those who truly need it.
It's good to see you in great spirits like this, what a nice place to stay for the evening and wonderful news about the change.
Stay strong. ^_^
I might look a little creepy, but that's the way they made me. 🙄 But I am a Nomad-san in my heart. Let's Go! 💗
Gonta-Saaaan😆 Let’s gooo!!
Thats a nice Idea. ^^
I love you Gonta-San, would love to have you in my bedroom at night hehe
Gonta-san thanks for your help for Robin. The doll is still a bit creepy, but one of my favorite videos. Kinda like a Japanese Chucky.
I think you should have earplugs and an eye mask for sleeping in those places. You will have better sleep if you use those things! Great video, thank you for sharing your lifestyle with us.
There's always a sense of serenity and calm in all your videos. I love watching your journey and always hope for your best and for you to keep your health!
Stay strong brother and best success for you!
This was the first video of Nomad Push I saw. Since then, I've been working my way through all of Robin-san's videos in order. LET's GOOO!!!!
dude this is actually awesome. you deserve all the subs you can get. you edit all day inside these places and barely make it by. you are an inspiration
You found a perfect customer :) Never seen a bird dressed so fancy. Could use Nomad-merch 100% Some birds are great travelers! The internet cafe is decent and so are you, sponsoring would fit so well.
Love watching your videos. To make your charging faster, get an extension cord with a lot of outlets on it. That way, you can charge them all at once, so you dont have to wait and just enjoy your sleep. Keep up the good work!
Bro, I like how your lifestyle is. So different to mine, I work at a big warehouse doing physical sweating type work.
I like my job, I like my cushy comfortable apartment, im used to my routine and car and everything is good in my life.
But your life, this nomad traveling style is awesome from looking from afar. I hope you stay safe.
Them internet cafe’s need to come to America, we either got motels or hotels. Usually with shitty wifi and limited cleaning services or perks.
I hope you stack that cheddar til you get this vanlife going. Them vanlife channels be popular. And you already growing now. Keep grinding 🙏🏽
Im rewatching your Internet cafe stays as I do like seeing you go in an indoor place that’s so cheap yet you can have a decent rest & accommodation. Totally worth it for a much more decent sleep.
Wow, everyone is so kind with your donations. I have faith in humanity again.
Glad I found your channel, your travels are interesting and I'm enjoying learning about people's life styles across the globe.
Love you Robin-san, keep pushing !!!
Love you too!!!
the shower gag was very fun hahahaha
☺️
immediately from the beginning of the video, i can tell youre a good guy. good luck on your journey, man
It's fun to watch you do small things to stay considerate whilst making these videos, like speaking quietly in your booth or going into the telephone booth to talk when it was late and people are sleeping.
Thanks!
13:12 I’m so glad you have a flat bed to sleep because I heard some cafes only have the chair which is impossible to sleep. That would be a nightmare for sure 😓
Good Idea to visit so many Internet Cafes. You can give the Internet Cafe Video Numbers and add them to a playlist.
It's so quiet and clean there. No drunks or addicts passed out in their own urine. I have seen homeless shelters in the US where people sleep on the floor and they are made to clean the shelter if they wish to stay there
Yeah, and some places can't force ppl to shower even though they need one bad.
100% agree. I was homeless in Australia for almost 2 years, I went to a homeless shelter once and didn't even make it through the front door before I turned around and left. Sadly most homeless people here are absolutely fucked, there's no nice way to put it. They have either completely fried their brains with drugs or have very serious mental illnesses, neither of which you want to be around. I ended up mainly sleeping on the beach in the sand dunes. It was good for 9 months of the year, winter was a bit shit especially the rainy nights but beggars cant be choosers, and I'd take that over dealing with the bullshit you would in a homeless shelter every day of the week.
well look at wakandian cities like detroit or shitcago its just a shithole of crime and evil
This is so cool. Subbed. Don't think I've ever seen a comment section so positive with so many donations.
Such a chill personality, like you seem like such a pleasure to travel with, awesome video man
I would recommend GaN charger with high output like Taocki/140W to charge multiple items at once, that might help a little bit.
I will check it out👍
Watch some electronics videos, figure out how to tap Moped San's electrical system to install some USB power outlets so you can charge while you ride. (Make so it only has power when the engine is running and you won't ever have to worry about accidentally draining your bike battery.)
Will do🙌
@@NomadPush Yes. You could hook up a usb charging outlet to the ignition. That way it will only charge when ignition is on.
@@NomadPushCouldn't you charge electronics using the USB sockets on the PC as well? Love Japan, really want to go soon, take care
You might see if Maeda-san can help you rig up some solar panels on the lids of your cases or something similar. You can get water proof (ip65 should be fine), small panels to charge your battery banks while you drive. I'm sure I'm not alone on this but I would gladly help sponsor that (or other) upgrades. Keep the faith bro, I'm looking forward to the next one as always. Let's gooooooo!!
Their streets are freshly paved and painted. Their sidewalks are clean. No dope dealers in the streets. Stuff can be left out overnight without fear of theft. Wild.
Its not wild its just a culture of people who respects others and their things.
Tame* Actually 😅
It’s called civilization!
where do u get the dope then, vending machine?
trust me the sidewalks are not always clean. lots of japanese will break the "rules" all the time
for some reason you can leave your phone unattended but if you leave your umbrella it will get stolen
I live in Wyoming, USA. We had one or two internet cafes, for a very short time, less than a year. Now they are all gone. The only warm 24-hour businesses are some grocery stores or even fewer restaurants. You could go to a truck stop for a shower and buy a meal too. But there is nowhere except a hotel where you are allowed to sleep.
Just a FYI... you can charge your USB devices on the desktop front panel. It may not be as strong as the power outlet, but if you are staying there for 12 hours it should charge your phone and other small battery devices easily
Nomad San, please install an adapter, extra battery, power inverter to your mobed. You will be able to charge all your devices on the go.
