Thanks for making videos that have realistic travel options!! I’m so tired of seeing something cool/fun, but it costs hundreds of $ for 1 person. 😩
Exactly ! They two keep it real unlike others « look what I ate for 200€ »
I love that you made this video and took hotel expenses into account of the $100 a day. Super realistic!
I am a Japanese living in Fukuoka.
Although Fukuoka is a smaller city compared to Tokyo and Osaka, in recent years it has developed rapidly as a compact city with an excellent living environment.
In fact, Fukuoka is the number one population growth rate that is quite popular in Fukuoka.
The development of many entertainment facilities is planned, and Fukuoka will become a more enjoyable city in the future.
Fukuoka seem already great on paper to me.
Also if you live here , i definitively have to ask for an advice to you , if you can answer.
I will be in Fukuoka in february for 6 days, and 3 more in Nagasaki (mostly for the lantern festival). I'm french and as the cliché say , i love cheese. I've learn that 焼きカレー exist and i need to try it. Is it worth to go to Mojiko to eat it or it's overrated and i could find a nice place to eat it in Fukuoka ?
Thanks for the answer!
The population of Fukuoka is 5 million
@@Chusssiyz7678 Incorrect. The population of Fukuoka prefecture is ~5M (includes Kitakyushu, Kurume, etc.) The population of Fukuoka City is "only" around 1.7M
Glad to see Patrick Wilson/Will Arnett enjoying his Japan trip
You both are so natural and chill, that's why I like your videos. None of those ultra hyped up expressions that most travel content creators do.
Fukuoka is amazing, there’s also some amazing beaches as well
I go to Japan next month for me and my wife's honeymoon, so I'm excited to see this video! Thank you for the great content.
Wow... I just came back to home from Fukuoka!😂
me too
God this makes me want to rush back to Japan - and Fukuoka, never been! I completely agree that this more "realistic" kind of travel content is really needed and matches so well with how many people travel. What's better than a convenience store breakfast in Japan?? Loved it!
I absolutely love the budget concept of this series. I am also thinking that a lot of travel vlogs are high end with very sensationalised content, but budget travel is fun and satisfying and a challenge in its own right - especially in Japan! I also think convenience stores in Japan are part of the fun, and even as a veggie I know I can get some cheap eats there and have a great time exploring the shelves.
The McGriddle you made - you guys are literally winning! 😂
I just want to say as someone brand new to your channel, not really new, but fairly new we appreciate your content very much and we are so very like you! We are looking forward to traveling like you guys more
I'm leaving for Japan in a couple of days. Your videos have been so helpful. I was planning on traveling thru Fukuoka to S Korea by ferry. With this video I'll be spending a few days here. I really want to see a baseball game. Keep the videos coming.
Love this series. Thanks for showing this and sharing your experience. Hope you bump into you guys on my travels!
I’m new to your channel, but I wanted to say that I love that you made a video about Fukuoka! And that you mentioned it being pretty underrated but (perhaps) up and coming. I’ve lived there so it has a special place in my heart, but whenever I give the advice to those planning a trip to Japan, there are many others saying it’s not worth visiting (especially in a Facebook group for travel trips to Japan). Which makes me sad as Fukuoka has so many cool aspects, relaxed vibes and even has beaches! Instead others recommend standard and crowded places like Miyajima, Kyoto, Osaka etc. I think Fukuoka has this great vibe and it deserves more attention 🥰 On the other hand, it wouldn’t be so bad if Fukuoka stayed a secret gem without the hordes of tourists for it to be enjoyed in peace with the locals haha 😊 Anyway, I love your insights and willingness to give cool places like Fukuoka a try!
I am totally loving your series and it has greatly helped me plan my itinerary to Japan. Thank you so much Lisa and Josh!
So happy to have found this channel! You are both awesome and I LOVE seeing affordable travel options. Can’t wait to watch more of your stuff x
hope you can do more japan and korea vlogs ,
you make the adventure look like so much fun
This video is refreshingly great. Thank you both! Safe travels. 💙
Thank you for making this video. It was a good reminder of what Fukuoka was like and that I should take my husband and son there when we go back to Japan. Your friend described it so well and really its more laid back.
Superb upload , Thank you Lisa and Josh for wonderful vid
Just got back from Japan and loved every minute, i used your videos for inspiration went to Asakusa/Nikko/Koyoto/Hiroshima/Miajima island (yes had the 1000 year tea thanks to you) thanks for the great content and emails you send me really appreciate it Lisa and Josh. ❤
Thanks for making this guys!
You guys are pretty great. Thanks for your genuine care and humour.
I enjoy watching many vloggers but Lisa and Josh are my favorite!! They're both kind, down to earth, and just fun to watch.
Sshhhhmazing. Lol
I love the description your friend described Fukuoka. It seems less intimidating for someone like me who wants to explore but have yet to go anywhere beyond US, Canada and Portugal. Lol
Glad to have found your channel as I’m making plans to travel to Fukuoka next month. ❤ your content in regard to budget travel. Great job 👏🏼 ‼️ New follower from California‼️
You two are the favorite travel vloggers for both me and my future wife. Going to Japan for our honeymoon has been our biggest dream, and your videos in the different cities have been the most fun part of helping us build our itineraries. Seeing you two love Fukuoka has helped us decide to travel off the beaten path of the big 3 cities and explore a different part of Japan. Much love and always love your down to earth style of traveling.
Am loving your real travel $100 a day vlogs. It is more realistic for many of us especially those outside the USA who can’t really travel hack. Thanks
As always...So. Much. Fun! 🙂
wow I had so much fun watching y'all have fun ! I'm going to Japan next year in April and decided to start out the trip with going to Fukuoka first ! the main reason is I didn't want to just jump into Tokyo because I'm not used to crowds and I don't want to stress out when im supposed to have fun. to me from what I've seen Fukuoka seams chill and peaceful , you can enjoy the city and also the beauty of nature and historical shrines and buildings . I love how realistic your budget is especially when it comes to food. the shots you took of the canal were beautiful ! the outdoor food vendor party was so cool I hope I can find it when go 😅 also you changed my mind on team lab after seeing you guys have so much fun ✨♥
We really enjoy traveling with you guys how ever you want to do it on what ever budget. You guys find some great experience and not so great😁😁 but your honest about it and that's why we watch. You guys keep doing your thing it's beautiful 👍👍 ya know you put 100 RUclipsrs on a luxury train and you'll get 5 different videos, you put 100 RUclipsrs in Fukuoka with a limited budget and you'll get a 100 different videos. We definitely would like to catch a baseball game in Japan, don't know about the ramen place. How great to reunite with friends!
🥰 everything looks amazing. and they are a great pair.
Awesome 👏
I enjoyed your video!! I have been to Osaka and Kyoto and I think your friend is right about the speed of people walking there is slower than the Osaka and Kyoto which mean is more relaxing to me!! 😊
Adding Fukuoka to my bucket list!
I was there a couple weeks ago and the Softhawks game we bought tickets for was cancelled because of the monsoon even though its in a dome. Really cool town. If you go back, you have to check out the Nanzoin reclining Buddah and surrounding waterfalls and temples bout 40 minute train outside of town. Very impressive.
This video is actually quite reassuring as we are planning a trip to Japan next year, including Fukuoka, and we was worried our budget might be too slim but we'll have a bit more than you've budgeted yourselves here and you seemed to have a great time.
TeamLab! I went to the one in Osaka -- twice -- and loved it so much I left wondering why *every* major city in the world doesn't have its own TeamLab experience. It's just such a magical space. Can't stress this enough -- if you are in Japan and are in a city that has a TeamLabs, go and buy a ticket and enjoy. You won't regret it.
Team Labs has a place in Fukuoka?! Thanks for sharing. I may have to check it out later this month. 😊
Fukuoka is my favorite city.
Hi guys, havent started warching yet, started watching Cheveyo & Tia when they were in Australia. Gone back to their beginning & just finished Morocco, & picked you guys up from there. Have fun til i get a chance to get back.
I love Fukuoka!
Love Fukuoka, their Yakitori, Ramen & Sushi.
I love Fukuoka! I'm glad you guys had a good time. As far as Fukuoka based affordable chains go, I recommend Ringer Hut for your next trip. Their sara udon (crispy crunchy fried noodles that almost remind me of Hawaiian/Chinese style cake noodles) is my absolute favorite and it's so cheap. But your friend is right there are much better Hakata style ramen shops in Fukuoka but there's no shame in loving Ichiran. Glad you guys got some motsunabe, too!
My dream is to travel like y'all do. Especially to Japan
Welcome back to Fukuoka. Great to see a video on one of our two home towns. I saw you also did a 3 day video on our other home town, Sydney.
Regarding Ramen in Fukuoka, of course it is the home of Tonkotsu styles of Ramen. Most notably Hakata style. But close to Tenjin, there is a lighter broth version called
Nagahama, and further south there is Kurume style.
Oh yes, going to Ichiran or Ippudo..... um, okay I'll let you off. Best Ramen is always from the dodgiest looking stalls. Or brave the yattai's.
Softbank Hawks are always great to watch. In the last 10 years, the team has won more championships than any other. And for quite some time now, Japan has been ranked 1st in world baseball ahead of the US. Baseball has been popular in Japan since the late 1800's - so it's not a new sport to them.
They even have pink days, where the stadiums are full of women and they all get free merch to encourage more women to come out. It makes the fan base wide and encourages families to all come out together. Watching baseball in Japan is always high energy!!
When it comes to pricing in venues such as a sporting event, in the west we would suffer captive prices. A case of "well you cannot go anywhere else, so we'll charge much higher prices". In Japan this practice is illegal. A price, is a price. It's also why convenience store prices are not high compared to anywhere else. They cannot simply add a large surcharge for the case of convenience, like they would elsewhere. In Australia for example, a bottle of drink in Woolworths would cost significantly less than the same thing in 7 Eleven. Absolutely, not possible to rip off customers this way in Japan.
By the way.... next time in Fukuoka, be sure to go down to Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine. It's a must in Fukuoka. Dazaifu is the old capital of Kyushu and its history goes back well over 1000 years.
accidentally found your channel and now a fan. cheer !
I'm Japanese I live in Fukuoka, but I didn't know many of the places you mentioned. Thanks, I'll try to go there next time.
Your assessment of American baseball games is 100% right lol looking forward to a game in Japan this fall! What does their season typically look like???
ّI love your 3 day 100 dollars per day series!!! just love it! one my biggest concerns when travelling is the finance ... that its too expensive .... but Im learning sooo much from you guys .... I used to travel only business class and stay in luxury hotels but after covid and with inflation hitting everywhere it has become harder to spend extra money in luxury so I kind of held back on travelling ... but I kid you not after watching your way of travelling and some other travel budget friendly travellers ... I went out of my box and booked 5 trips for the next 6 months ... booking early , budget friendly airlines ... booked budget friendly hotels using my miles for my next trip to Vienna next month and just came back from Istanbul and spend only 200 dollars on food and entertainment for 5 days ( not including accommodation) with focusing on street food that is good and not the ambiance and luxury ... and had more fun than ever... I ate breakfast in bakeries and lunch packed picnic stuff from groceries and dinner eating tasty street food in budget friendly eateries ... best trip ever! Thank you for inspiring us !
Aloha L&J,
Yes there are so many better places and the first two times I ate Ichiran I was like nevah again. But when in Fukuoka I gave it one more shot because it was the original location and you know what it was way better.
TL;DR go try the original 😅😂
That's the Ichiran head office you visited!
Can I give you an advice as a Foreign Resident of Fukuoka? It seems that you took the subway at least 3 times within a day…in that case, it’s cheaper to get the subway day pass for 640JpY sold at all the machines in the station.
And next time you really want budget eats and drink in Fukuoka, let me know. For example: I know where you can drink unlimited alcohol drinks for 3 hours for about 12USD.
I watch the videos for Josh and Japan :)
Let's Go° 🎉🎉🎉
new vid lets goooooooooooo
Also had that ramen at that shop near Riezen Park (did I spell that right?) -- not too expensive but it was yummy!
The cheese coin was some bait and switch 😂
Never heard of Teamlab but looks kinda cool
LOVE your videos...but so confused over Japanese restaurants. I think we need a tutorial because it all looks delicious but I'd have zero idea how to order any of it!!
I wish you showed us the meal from the yatai stall, maybe next time ?
Anyways welcome back to be called food heaven!
As usual, thank you for the great video! Josh, how do you do so much walking in those flip flops? Get some nicer shoes!
Kara and Nate will not be happy to hear your comments 🤣 But on the plus side, I totally agree with you, your experience is the real experience that how most people travel and they generally have a specific budget to get on with their expenses 👍
Does the suica card on the Iphone wallet work just fine? And is it ok to communicate in english and google tradutor?
I'll be going to fukuoka in a few weeks, and I want to enjoy it the best way possible!
How did you get tickets for Sumo? I'll be there in Nov.
14:31 lisa the way you SHOT up 😂
Ciao guys 👋 👋
Greetings from Greenwich London ⚓️⛵️
Cheers ☕️🫖👍🌹✅
Hi! Where is that place with beers in the basement that you went to? 13:53 mins in :) would like to find it thanks!
Been following your travels for some time now and wanted to thank you for sharing all the unique, fun and budget friendly places for us to try. I'm amazed how you two always manage to find these cute and hidden gems without any guidance from Google etc. Looking forward to your next adventure!
Hey man,
how does the travelling work in Fukuoka
I saw there are so many different trains
does JR Kyushu pass cover metro ? or are they different?
ill be travelling there real SOON, so just looking for advice
Whats that suica card you got? and whats the phone app?
Hi there There are many railway companies in Japan, but unfortunately the JR Pass does not apply to the subway.
One-day tickets are issued for 640 yen on the Fukuoka subway.
You can also use a credit card as a ticket, and even in that case, the maximum amount for the day will be set at 640 yen.
It is most rational and convenient for foreigners to use a credit card as a ticket when boarding the Fukuoka subway.
First comment ^^ I won
goated
Know that a survey was done before but how about a trip to Okinawa?
Soooo overr those flying 1st class around the world youtube vlogs.. You guys are far more A) Interesting and B) realistic .. Love your Japan vlogs. Am a little bias as i live here but hey ;-)
can i use mobile scan for train station like you ?
Excellent～😻ﾆｬ~
Someone stole my past! In 1960 Itazuke AFB (now Fukuoka International Airport) was my first assignment out of tech school. My pay was less than $100 per month, but the exchange was 360Y for a dollar. One of the best beers ever brewed, Asahi was $1 for nearly a gallon. Whisky, Torys was $1 a bottle. I rode a Cabton motorcycle. Gas was 10 cents a gallon. Before the "merchants" of the world ruined everything a dollar was worth a dollar??
What's the name amd address of the restaurant on the last part please?
The motsunabe 🥺
Motsunabe oishi :)
Beef Motsunabe Ooi | Minoshima (on google)
I must say since I’ve started watching y’all channel I have felt soooo much peace and joy by watching y’all travel journey too many different countries I always think about visiting and I am someday for sure, also think this is the proper way of traveling no matter what any one says honestly y’all are giving the complete right impression keep up the great work I love this channel 🔥🔥
Oh, great...now I've got to figure out how to fit Fukuoka into my upcoming trip to Japan. ;-) I don't know what it is about watching Lisa eat, but the grace in which she takes that first bite makes my mouth water every time!
This series is perfect for me, because i usually spend about 3 days in a city when traveling through a country.. I have all but given up watching the "private train across India" channel, because, well, why?
Going to Japan in November. Disappointed that the baseball season ends in October. I wish American airports and events didn’t take advantage of a captive audience and overcharge
I feel like the budget of $100 per day for TWO people is too low. I'd say bump it up to $150 per day for two people. That's fairly reasonable when you account for accommodations as well in the daily budget.
I know their audience are Westerners but I am a Filipino and trust me $300 will get you 5-6 days in Fukuoka.
I love your how you self-deprecating when you talk about going to Ichiran.
Also everything you are doing , in each video i looked , seem doable unlike these fancy thing you can see on youtube/instagram, especialy for people like me who don't have a lot of money and have to make everything count .
Thanks for that , it give me some idea of what to do when i will be here in february (i will be 6 days in fukuoka with some travel around for the day and 3 in nagasaki for the lantern festival )
Hey how old are you Josh?
26:42 - Eminem reference?
hahaha yep!
Everyone makes ramen in their own way, I don't believe there is a "true" style.. yes, there are regional similarities, but you make ramen your own, I'd say. You like what you like, and you don't eat what you don't.
BRO YOU NEED TO CHANGE YOUR STINK SHIRT LOL
You look like the guy from The Conjuring
Background music makes it hard to understand what you're saying
Nothing cost 10 yen, you can barely buy any pre-made food for 100yen let alone 10yen.
That’s the saddest looking 10yen coin waffle I’ve ever seen. You guys got hosed
Very good video on Fukuoka ! Well done ! BUT ! Flip flops and bare feet in a Japanese restaurant was a total faux pas ! Please don’t do that again, I know you’re on a budget, but you don’t have to dress like a homeless person in a nice restaurant overseas.
There are such opinions, but many of the restaurants in Japan have almost no dress code rules like those in Europe and the United States. Wearing casual clothes is considered free for people, unless it is a super high-end store. I would be happy if it could be helpful.😊
I booked a restaurant reservation through my hotel concierge in Shinjuku. I asked about dress code and he said not to worry and jokingly replied “not naked” 😂
You eat a lot of unhealthy food. Take a little more care of yourselves.
Spending on $100 a day on vacation really takes away from the true potential....its like going to Vegas on a budget of $50/day; the experience wont nearly be the same as $500/day, which is what the experience is built on.
