Japan travel to Okinawa. This is our Japan Family summer vacation trip. Last year, as you know, we went to Atami just over an hour away from Tokyo…but this year we decided to fly all the way down to Japan’s resort island of Okinawa and this time meet up with my Japanese in-laws, Maiko’s mom and sister. When we started planning our trip a few months earlier, the Japanese government was actually encouraging domestic travel, even running campaigns with discounted travel up 50% in some cases as . So it was only natural for many Japan residents to start traveling back to areas like Okinawa, especially since many people had been staying home the past couple years. In fact, the hotel itself seemed to be at near full capacity so perhaps government initiatives were working well….maybe too well. This is our experience with traveling in Japan as a family including my Japanese in-laws and some of things that other travelers should be aware of.

Day in a life of japanese taxi driver naman
Daaaaaaaamn, Wolfy's a lucky boy! Paolo, if you want to adopt a big brother for him, call me! 🤠
Finally! Wolfy's styling his hair with gel, just like daddy! 😄
Congratulations Paolo for your All Nippon Airways ad. 👍
The way you and Maiko love seeing Wolfy filled with joy and happiness makes this old woman happy. Thank you for sharing your lives with us. Japan is my dream.
Our pleasure!
@@PaolofromTOKYO As a grandma myself who doesn't get to see my baby girl too often, I KNOW that your mother-in-law loved this time with Wolfy.
@@athenacetta9036 yes, I love Japan very much too! Mainly the anime tho 😅
@@athenacetta9036 grandma?
@@niaputri2094 I'll admit I've not watched any anime really. Do you have one you can recommend for a newbie?
It's either Wolfie is growing fast or I'm getting older 🤣
I started when Paolo was still single and now I watching his kid's new adventure.
Time be moving huh
I swear I remember watching the video of his wife's first or 2nd day home after Wolfies birth and the audio on the video accidently picked up saying something to the effect of "my butt hurts!" I laughed so hard...and related so much.
Shits crazy fr
Me either 😅
The Hells Angels, the Comanchero motorcycle club and the Aussie Cartel heads are having talks while you are reading this about their growth in Australia and in Asia. Exterminating The Yakusa presence and their activities in the country would be considerably profitable for the Hells Angels, the Comanchero motorcycle club and the Aussie Cartel. The goal is to initiate their expansion over the Yakusa in Australia and to push it as far as in Japan. According to their plans, they are and will be supported by the Sinaloa Cartel for a part of the gains obtained and it would be done by the end of 2023. They told their mens to prioritize the capture, mostly for torture and interrogation before killing and for selling but to kill right away if they can not capture. This is what members having close ties with Hells Angels chapter leaders are talking about. Some members of the Hells Angels and of the Sinaloa Cartel had already start moving to Australia. The mens had been told to get the job done by any means, even by mass killing if needed. If you are directly involved let your comrades know so you can be prepared for what is happening before it is too late to prevent the bloodbath and your fall!
For people who don't realize, Maiko's sister was the woman in Paolo's "Day In The Life of a Japanese Car Repair Worker in Toyota" from a few years ago!
Yeah and also they are featured in one of the video i believe that's how japanese celebrate new year
When I saw her beauty mark, I was like "Why does she look familiar? >:U" lol
Yea and i wonder where is his Father-In-Law?
@@weebanimefan7760 He said that he's recovering from an illness 10:30
@@inneraesthetic Yea i know already and wished a healthy year for him and them.
Wolfy putting his hands in his pockets whenever he sees a girl he likes omg that's insanely adorable!
😎 ... Wolfy, such a cool-cat in front of the young ladies ...
(But pay no attention to the giant load in my diapers- 19:54)
😆😄
Japan's culture around children is so enjoyable to learn about - children are clearly treasures to everyone, not just Wolfy to his family - but you can see many families allowing their young ones to be curious and expressive throughout the vlog.
There were other little kids dancing in the izakaya and just being kids. Grandma was so loving even when having a truck driven on her. Being patient with the new shoe-learner and letting him be proud of a new skill instead of rushing and just doing for him and depriving him of self-efficacy. Little treasures.
Honestly that is good parenting no matter what country or culture you are a member of
It's a real worry for Japan, there's just not enough children being born or young Japanese who want to start families.
This might also come from how past generations had higher infant mortalites than the current generations.
My son just married his Japanese sweetheart. I can’t wait to meet her. He’s been oversees for 8 years. I’m beyond happy to have a new Daughter and two precious grandchildren that my Son is adopting. Saving all my Pennie’s to fly over and see everyone. I’m getting exciting watching your videos.
Wolfy going "waku waku" like Anya is so cute
timestamp?
Watching your kid growing up...PRICELESS!!
Okinawa seems like a refreshingly beautiful place. It seems very tranquil and unique. This is a perfect getaway destination for families yearning for extensive escapism.
Its humid as fuck here.
@@Mbusybuu 🤣
@@ropro9817 mbusybuu out here shattering people's dreams
Yeap, only good for a visit. It gets very boring here. It is really just a Japanese/American military base island, and by that I mean there are literally at least 10 bases on this small island.
Lived there for 2+ years…as someone who hates humidity, okinawa is not that bad…don’t listen to what others say. It’s beautiful. Highly recommend it.
Wolfy is looking more like his father by the minute! Glad you all had fun 😊
its crazy how much he looks like paolo
when wolfy said bye to the birds my heart melted from cuteness
Wolfy's so adorable!
and i'm glad everyone had a great time on holiday!
he so cute
He looks exactly like dad😊
Wolfy is adorable, glad you ended up having a good time! looks like a beautiful place to visit
This was a perfect holiday because Wolfie was full of sparkle. It doesnt matter the glitches you experienced. It was all about making lasting memories with your son. It was well worth it! Welldone
Yes at the end of the day, all that matters is you've spent time and made great memories with your loved ones. Thank you for sharing your family and Wolfy's first memories and experiences with us! He's growing up in such an adventurous and loved environment.
This was so nice! Wolfy was so cute dancing at the restaurant. 🥰
He seemed to really have a good time with the turtles and the fish. I’m so glad that you guys were able to spend time together as a family in such beautiful surroundings. Thanks for sharing. I really enjoyed it.😊
Wolfie is so cute. Loved seeing his delight at discovering new experiences.
Thank you for including us on your trip to Okinawa! So amazing seeing Wolfy become such a good talker.
He is SOOO adorable, thank you for sharing your family time with us, it's so heartwarming. I'm glad everyone got to spend such a great time together
Your son is so adorable. It shows you’re both great parents by the big smile on his face all the time and his eager curiosity. Blessings to you and your family ❤
Such a wonderful family trip ❤❤ So many new experiences for Wolfy!!!
Wolfy is so adorable. I'm glad you guys at least had some time together, sucks grandpa couldn't join. Hopefully he can in the winter. It was nice to see wolfy exploring new things while meeting his Auntie and grandma.
I hope Maiko is feeling better. Thank you for sharing your holiday experience
You both are great parents. So patient. I loved seeing your vacation. Thank you.
Wolfy is an absolute delight. I'm not surprised that a lot of places are still recovering from Covid, it hurt so many businesses and industries. The place looks beautiful.
Wolfy is the Man. He has already got his "what's up, girl" game on point.
It's great that we get to see the relatives in person after so long and I actually enjoyed the video.
It was calm, worth seeing in terms of what to do at the hotel and what you guys did together as a family is fantastic!
Omg Wolfie grew up so much... enjoy these times as much as you can, they grow up fast. Sending love to you and your family
I lived in Okinawa when I was 12-15 years old, and I loved it. Then I joined the Marines where I was lucky enough to be deployed there for 6months. Eventually I was stationed there with my family. Loved every bit of it. The people and the culture is so nice and beautiful.
you should watch karate kid 2
We finally get to see Maiko’s family again😊
Yeah, her mom and sister.
But not her dad hopefully he'll feel better slowly but surely.
Lovely to see you having such a nice trip, and thank you for being so understanding for a rebooting industry.
I normally don't enjoy watching other youtube's vlogs but this video and your entire channel is so wholesome and full of genuine appreciation and love for your family and life. Thank you for creating this content.
Aww that was so awesome! Glad you guys had such a fun time on Okinawa.
From all the traveling I have done, only one time was the room not ready; check in was 4pm and we got there at 5:30pm. I was running in a marathon the next day, and the booths closed at 6pm to get your racing numbers and shop for some merch. At 5:45pm the room still wasn’t ready, so we left our bags with the hotel staff and literally ran over to the centre to get my race stuff. By the time we got back at 6:10pm, our room still wasn’t ready. We were a little upset, but then one of the managers saw us and asked “wait, didn’t you arrive at 5:30pm and your room still isn’t ready?”
So she took us, and upgraded our room to one that over looked the river. Also we got discount vouchers for the restaurant upstairs on the top floor.
I absolutely love your videos! Usually, I enjoy your "A day in the life of..." format, but this one is so refreshing and calming. Now I want to make a holiday trip to Okinawa! 😂Your videos are the main reason I am currently trying to learn japanese. The culture is just so heart warming but at the same time reasonably disciplined. Thank you so much for your content! You sir, are one of my favorite youtube content creators!!!
Amazing video! Thanks Paolo and Family 🙂
Thank you for sharing your vacation with us... I enjoyed it very much. feel free to post more family videos... they are very enjoyable.
seeing videos like these make me cry, I wish I had that growing up
That looked like a lot of fun! We enjoyed watching it, too! Wolfy is so cute!
Your family is amazing, my man. Congratulations on a long deserved vacation.
such a well researched video! Its great that you were able to understand and explain some of the issues you came across in Okinawa! Not a lot fo people have that level of patience! Great video
I love learning about Japanese culture and watching your family have many adventures. Wolfy is growing up so fast. 😃
Yeah in one video.
Hey Paolo you're Awesome, been watching you're channel for a long time now and you're journey is amazing 👏🏻 😊 keep up the good work 👏🏻
Your family is so sweet. Thank you for sharing!
What an absolutely wonderful trip to record! Thanks for sharing your families beautiful moments with us 🤜❤️🤛
Wolfie's 1st travel sure was a document for your family! How charming was to see him adhering to his heritage music live.
everywhere is jammed packed with tourist post covid.huhu. as long as we can play outside and spend some time with the family i consider that an awesome vacation 🤣🤣🤣. glad wolfy got to spend quality time with his grandma and aunty.
wolfy is so precious,you and Maiko are GRETA Parent's. Glad I found this channel 2 year's ago. It's been special to watch you grow and Learn
Paolo, I just want to say I appreciate the work and diligence you put into your videos. Love your content, I can see the effort you put into making high quality videos. Take care man!
My Friday evening is complete! I look forward to your new weekly content, Paolo! Much love from Georgia, U.S.A.! 👊🏿
Awesome! Thank you!
Great news about japan finally opening up!!!! WOO HOO!!!!🎉✌🏻
Awesome family vacation. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to Japan opening soon!
I love these kind of videos, its great seeing you having such a nice break youve been through so much ❤️
This looks like such an amazing little holiday! Your doing so amazing mum and dad. Wolfy is a lucky little boy. Hes so gorgeous!! We miss Japan so much. Would love to take our little boy, almost same age as Wolfy, to Japan - Okinawa. Your both doing such an amazing job, be gentle on yourselves. We have had grandmothers and Aunties that have met our little boy only recently. .... We know the feeling... very emotional!! Thank you so much for the amazing content. Have watched every single one of your videos. Lots of Loves! - The Hunts from Auckland, New Zealand. xxx
Loved my time in the 70's when I was stationed in Okinawa. Love the Okinawan people. That big smile on Wolfy's face says it all. Looks like a good time was had by all. Beautiful Island.
I was there for 13 months in the late 60's. It is a totally different place now...except for the bases.
My dad was stationed there around the end of the Vietnam War. He got injured in battle at one point and was sent to Okinawa for recovery. He ended up taking kendo lessons cause you get an authentic sword made by a really well known sword blacksmith upon graduating as a black belt and yes he achieved that.
Definitely a trip to remember--so much fun to see Wolfy make memories with you! Thanks for sharing. ❤
Thank you for sharing your family with us❤. I love Japan and your insights as a young family, makes watching a lot of fun.
Looks like a lot of fun, Paolo! “ Okinawa with in-laws” is something I can relate to personally. 😃
We did the same thing a couple of years back, when my daughter was around Wolfie’s age. We went there with my wife’s parents, and rented a house for a couple of days on Ishigaki Island. (It actually cost less than all of us staying in a hotel.) We had a fantastic time. Okinawa is one of my favorite places in the world. Beautiful, safe, and definitely family friendly - especially if you’re staying on one of the southern islands. And seriously, for anyone planning on travelling there with a larger group or small kids, definitely look into renting a house. Less expensive than you would think, and a seriously relaxing and low-stress option. 🍻
Looked like a great holiday and seemed to be a cordial relationship with the In-laws, unless I missed something? The Japanese do things so nicely. Cheers from NZ!
I realized while watching the video that your in-laws were apart of one of your Day In the life videos and it suddenly made more things make sense. Very cool that you have videos with your family like that. Your kiddo is so adorable too, looks like such a happy kid!
Looks like a fun, relaxing family time. Glad the not so great things you mentioned but didn't show didn't spoil your overall trip!
Your day in the life vids are awesome! can't wait to see more 😊
Your kid is just like my toddler. Same mannerisms, speech, and nike shoes! Super cute watching Wolfy travel
Oh I'm so glad wolfy had so much fun and it's always a joy to see such good videos from you 😃
Your little boy is so cute! Thanks for sharing this video. Japan is next on my list of countries to visit.
Love your day in the life of vids!!
Finally, another amazing vids😊
It's fun watching you travel with your little boy, as I have two boys around the same age. Can't wait to show them Japan.
Enjoyed spending this trip with your fam!
love the content, cant wait to plan my own trip to japan when i can go
We love hearing you speaking Japanese Paolo.
Maybe we can hear more in the future. 👍
Yeah probably
Loved this video. So sweet how Wolfy adjusts languages 🫶
Wow, Paolo and Maiko you are sure building memories for Wolfie. He is such a cute and engaged boy, full of wonder and love. You guys are doing a great job. Thank you for sharing your family holiday with us. Cheers, Muffy from Oz (Australia)
Okinawa is really like hawaii. Hawaii does have a lot of Okinawan residents from plantation days. Pictures brides. My husband is 3rd generation Okinawan japanese.
Seeing Wolfy with his aunt and grandma made me so happy and reminded me of my summers with my family. My entire family (including all aunts, uncles, grandparents, and cousins) would go for summer trips to the family ranch in Mexico and have a blast. Those moments are the best
Excellent family video. Thanks for sharing.
great video paolo i hope you got to have a fun time with the family
Awesome, when I hear Okinawa I think Japan's Hawaii Themed Island Resort
I did the same vacation- Okinawa with my Japanese in-laws. Nice beaches and food. Hotel was great too.
Watch you often I live in Montreal Canada and I love your videos of different things in Japan and the lifestyle.This was a very sweet video with your in-laws great resort beautiful place to visit.Thanks for all your videos.
It’s amazing how much he has grown ! Wolfy is so cute ! Nice vacation though!
Twenty years ago we were in Okinawa station military Base camp foster...I love Japanese food and I like the sunset in Okinawa Japan..futima ,camp foster and air force base there ...
Ok this is on my list of places to go when I get to Japan!
Watching your videos is the wholesome break I take from the stress of my everyday hustle.
Great family experience video Paolo!❤️
This is pretty much a
*_Day in the Life of a Japanese Vacation_* 🏖️
10:12 It's wonderful to see Erina again!!!!! ☺️
Wolfy trying to help Dad with his camera at the end, so cute! lol
Couldn’t stop smiling while watching this vlog. Happy Wolfie makes me happy!
This place looks amazing 🥰 we all need to be patient with all the adjustments with all that's going on in the world. Wolfy is so darn cute and so smart 😍
Great video! Wolfy is very personable. There was lots for him to do!❤️
Japan is one of my favorite country clean and people are all nice and friendly 😊
Great video! One of the best you’ve done. I for sure want to take my family to this resort now.
Thanks for giving us a chance to see your family life.
Wow, Okinawa! Thanks for another great video, have a great weekend~ :D
Thank you too!
Strange title to the video. I thought something bad was going to happen but it looked like you all had a great time.❤
I agree. The title is misleading.
click-bait title, he always do that
Very cool, nice to be able to spend time with family, thanks for sharing.
That's a lovely video, thanks for sharing this vacation with us. I miss going on vacations. How cute that you and Wolfy have the same hair style!
Thank you for sharing your family adventures with us. Celebrating differences while proving people around the world wish to share kindness and friendship. If only governments would stay out of our way.
The car rental situation is exactly what happened here in Hawaii. During the lockdown and travel restrictions, there were thousands of unused rental cars parked in fields and lots. Many of them were eventually shipped off island. Then when tourism came back, there weren't enough rental cars, so rental prices were sky high. It's since stabilized since more cars were shipped in.
He is so cute I enjoy all your videos Paolo... You really bring the best of your world and Japan.
