Thanks for watching
I hope everyone who sees this has someone who loves them the way Solo Travel Japan-san loves curry rice
Or hamburger steak!
Or Mackerel😊😊😊
I was just thinking the same thing!!
😂😂😂👌🏻👌🏻
That comment was a roller-coaster for me because on the one hand, it makes me sad that I don't have anyone like that but then I remember how much I freakin' love curry rice and everything is okay again
...No, I'm not fat
Solo Travel Japan, Kuga’s Travel, and DancingBacons have been my recent favorite RUclips channels simply because there’s no loud and obnoxious intro music, no contrived unauthentic personality, no long waits to get to the damn point, and absolutely no talking.
I'm now about to check out DancingBacons as the name has me intrigued!
Yes I like DancingBacons too!
I like watching Kuga's Travels and Solo Travels because they're nice peaceful and relaxing. DancingBacon sounds intriguing. Will have to check that out!
@@askara_755 DancingBacons is one of my favorites! She is really funny and her wife is so sweet! They do a lot of different food content as they live in Singapore, so she’ll try stuff from all over Asia.
Same!
Everyone always asks how the ferry stays cost-effective with so few people on board.
Answer 8:39 Basically it's a cargo ship with nice people accommodations.
That's probably why BC ferries are shyte. Transport trailers are unhooked and shipped by barge.
So, do you have to be nice people to get accommodations on the ferry?
Yeah and the reason why freight goes by ferry is because the Japanese rail system is poorly suited for freight in part due to issues fitting them in with passenger trains and underinvestment in rolling stock and marshalling yards. Of comparable nations, Japan hauls the least amount of freight by rail.
@@steverogers7601 no Captain America.
@@steverogers7601 i think it means Cargo Ferry with 'nice' people accommodation, not 'nice people' accommodation
--- RICE BOWL COUNT 2021 ---
[14] Regular Rice
[12] Large Rice
[9] Curry Rice
[3] Donburi
[1] Fried Rice
Rice Facts:
- The most rice consumed in one video was 4 servings, in Hokkaido to Niigita
- The only video with no rice bowls consumed was Tokyo to Hokkaido
- So far, roughly ~6.35kg of rice has been consumed on camera
- This equates to ~244.3g of rice on average per video, or just over one Large Rice
Hahaha
You're doing great work, rice count dude
Can't wait to see you on the next video. Hahaha
😂 Hahaha
Lol I like this count! Keep it up!
"I think I'll eat small" - proceeds to eat more in one meal than I can manage in a day 🤣
"I think I'll eat small"
People named Small: 😭😭😭
The traveler has a good appetite.
@@claireurie8283 rude?
@@claireurie8283 You had the same option, and were even ruder. How hypocritical.
@@ThyPandora I am curious, I mean this literally because I honestly don't know, how I was rude? I pointed out how it is a waste of time to make a rude comment about the amount of food someone eats. I made no mean comment about the person who commented. Just stated it was rude of them to mention someone's eating choices. (If doing so is rude then I'll happily delete the comment I just honestly don't see how it is)
The longer ferry trips are my favorites. Even with the typhoon this was a nice trip. So awesome that your cabin had a side view too. Also I love it when you have curry 🍛 rice. Another great video! Thanks 😊
That curry rice does look tasty I must say. I will have to try some one day.
"You didn't see anything" 🤣🤣🤣 It's OK... I definitely don't see how much you love hamburg steaks and curry.
So happy for you that you got to experience everything on the ship in the end, including the open deck. It's a pity about the Sendai pit stop though.
I like to imagine that every time he goes to sleep, he's counting a bunch of hamburg steaks jumping over a fence
We can feel the rocking (up and down) motion of the ferry riding on the rough seas - even with the fin stabilizers on. It's like living in a luxury hotel with such delicious meals served. We almost don't want the video to end. Thank you for sharing with us, worldwide, on youtube.
*Curry rice for breakfast* "You didn't see anything" made me laugh!
Ship proceeds to rock. "Good news. The restaurant is open..." The sea sickness meds might have worked to well. 🤣
Glad you are safe. What a great ship, can see why you would want to try it again.
Even with sea sickness meds I think the last thing I'd be doing is eating lol
My favorite channel on RUclips. I can't wait to watch these videos and frequently play them to go to sleep. So interesting and calming/soothing.
They really are weirdly calming and soothing. I do hope there gets to be a lot of videos to form a playlist with.
There is a similar channel called Kuga's Travel :)
@@javiermontiero4982 check out Kuga's Travel. They do very similar videos with ferry trips and train trips. Best part is that they also don't speak during the video. There's a few other travel vloggers who do nothing but talk all the way through.
I like that you explain what the dishes you eat are. Not all dishes are similar to the ones I eat when I take the ferry between Sweden and Finland and vice versa.
I swear this channel has gotten me through breakthrough COVID this week, I’ve watched constantly while trying to get better. Thank you for the content!! Edit: These comments were so nice and supportive - I am on the mend and doing great :)
(I hope you have a smooth recovery!)
Good luck, get well soon
Morgan W I hope you recover quickly! 💜
Get better soon pal.
Hope you feel better soon.
I love that this guy is so humble just to share his first-person view with completely linear editing. No music, no voice, just subtitles to tell the story. Awesome and keep it up?
Something neat - @6:46 the Totoro theme plays in the background.
The shipping lines should give you a life time ambassador card as you have been promoting them as well as almost living on board their ships daily.
i am thinking the same thing!!
Only problem there is it could lead to the ferry lines going above and beyond solely for him to try and seem like they're better than they are. The way it is, we get the authentic experience. It's similar to how secret shoppers would act, they're meant to go in, take in the 'store' and score it with the staff unaware of their presence.
Natural is better😁✨
@@blankadams3120 Probably why he doesn't show his face.
I was getting worried that something happened because he hadn't posted part 2, and here he is having the time of his life :p
For some odd reason, I really want curry rice! I don’t know why 😊. The room was very nice and I hope you get to go again and get that beef tongue dish! Thank you for bringing us along!
It is super easy to make especially if you have a rice cooker. They sell Japanese curry cubes in most grocery markets in the US and parts of Europe.
Annette, I know what you mean. Lol 😂 I always end up wanting what he's having.
"For some odd reason" - there's nothing odd about it, curry rice is delicious! It's even better if you get with those fried pork cutlets (I think they call them 'katsu'?). Only thing is, make sure you get a small serving, they're way more filling than you would expect.
@@CopiousDoinksLLC Tonkatsu, which is my opinion is overrated.(they don't season it very well, but maybe with curry would be better) Chickenkatsu is much better.
@@TheBaldr , I agree. Tonkatsu tends to be a little dry. It's the nature of pork, restaurants want to make sure it's well done. Chicken katsu is my favorite. Funny though where I live, outside Seattle WA. the chinese restaurants tend to call all chicken or pork katsu "tonkatsu" interchangeably. 🙄 So I always ask which one it is.
I love how you interact with us! It's like we're there with you. When you laugh, we laugh. It's like being on a ferry with a friend!
16:30 THERE IS ALWAYS ROOM FOR CURRY!
A ship this size almost certainly has expansion joints built in. They're there so that if one part of the ship is higher than another, or one part twists, those joints allow that without stressing the hull and risking breaking. They make a lot of noise. If you're not seasick, being at sea in a storm is fantastic. Seeing the power of the ocean is amazing and humbling.
Thanks for letting me see parts of Japan I will most likely never get to experience in person. I admire the modesty, politeness, efficiency, and cleanliness that your videos show and your own good nature. Be well.
At this point I’m thinking you intentionally chose this day to experience and show us that fun :) glad that you did not have seasick this time. Your cabin was the perfect for this ride!
You're traveling solo, but never seem to feel lonely 😊👍
I felt dizzy just watching the beginning! Big round of applause to the crew for getting through a typhoon 👏👏👏
I live vicariously thru your videos!❤love from NJ
he made it safely! i'll call off the search and rescue party
Lol.. your comment was as entertaining as the video. :)
I love the map of the Mediterranean isles , at 6:53 you can see Cos and Nisyros, I took a ferry from one to the other but it was much calmer than your journey thankfully!
I live in Nisyros !!!
Perfect. Beautiful! So glad you weren't seasick this time - want to know a secret? You never will be again. It's just like the ship is rocking you to sleep. After a hot bath and that toasty comforter, it's pure bliss. Ten years in the Navy here if you want to know. It's just...not like anything else. Thanks for a wonderful video!
I hope to one day love something as much as Solo Travel Japan loves Curry Rice.
Mr Yasai Curry, thank you for this video. I feel like I am traveling with you!
I wish we could see the buffet spread :o I know it might be a bit weird but a quick go over the entire thing would really make the video so much more fun to watch :D
I just wanted to tell you that your travel videos are so soothing and wonderful to watch. They make me happy and give me smiles when I least expect them, so thank you very much for taking the time to share your travels with us! You are a wonderful host!
I'm rooting for you and your channel to succeed and become what you want it to be! I really enjoy your videos and hope you keep making more. And I hope you enjoy making them, too.
Yes, keep them coming 😀
So glad I found your channel. After a stressful day at work, watching your videos calms me right down. I've been all over Europe, but have to plan a trip to Japan. I love what I have seen! Keep making these great videos!
LOL Your favorite, curry rice!! (Yep, I remember that from one of your other vids.) Chaining down the chairs? I guess they are used to having things move around in the storms. lol
What a great view, right out the front of the ship. Amazing.
I had no idea Japan had so many ferries !!! Solo Travel Japan, single handedly informing me of these cool ships.
I love the way they serve meals, a little bit of a lot of different things.
This lovely part of the trip is your reward for enduring the storm, and for coming prepared with the medicine and candies. A happy STJ is a full, bathed, and well-rested STJ.
I'm glad the rough sea didn't make you lose your appetite!
knowing he has motion sickness made the stakes so much higher in this episode
Like others, I watch your videos before bedtime to relax me. So I am relaxed, but craving curry rice and mackerel!
I have never seen Japan out of this perspective. I wish i could be there one day, its beautiful, thanks for your videos.
I liked the Totoro lounge-music playing in the background of the restaurant.
I love that theater !
You certainly ate alot at eat meal, those seasick pills must have really worked !
I just realized....a 2 bed suite for a 2 night trip....that means a clean, fresh bed every night !
I thought it funny that the chairs were chained down, but better than them flying around the room from those high seas.!
Great report, thankyou.👍
'You didn't see anything'
Ya I did not.... Hahaha 🤫
Wow, the storm caused by typhoon 🌀 looks incredible. I have never been on board of a ship during storm. Your cabin and all facilities seems very cool! 🐱
Sadly, the ferry from Newcastle (U.K.), to Norway no longer runs. That didn’t have stabilisers for years. Dear Lord, was that an experience in winter!
Love these videos. Your ferries are so much nicer than British ones.
Its a shame, norway and uk have always been good partners in trade and the last service ended a decade ago, its odd we still havent made stabilizers mandatory on ferries considerimg the rough sea we have, its mostly the short inland ferries that experience unbelievable rolls tho
I can't imagine how beautiful the view would be sitting at the tables by the windows with the waves like that. I'm sure my stomach would be pitching a fit, but the view would be splendid.
The butter fried bacon and spinach looked delicious!!! I love veggies cooked like that.
For some reason, the theatre room reminded me of a church, lol.
I laughed when you wrote "You didn't see anything" with your extra bowl of curry rice. I guess that's your comfort food, like mashed potatoes are mine.
I'm so relieved the typhoon didn't affect you too badly and you didn't get seasick. I hope you get to book that semi suite again, or a Royal suite, in the future
i can feel the happiness when there is writing 'the restaurant is open' !!!
Part 2, been waiting for this.
Continued! I love the part where the ferry is smacking the waves!
Thank you for risking your life for us! You’re the best! 💕
That semi suite looks like the way to go. The food looked yummy and I'm glad you didn't get sea sick this time. What a great view out your window of the storm.
A wonderful and exciting video for sharing. Cheers!
Very glad you survived the storm, with a good appetite! 😉 It was an excellent journey! 👍🏼😎✌🏼
Glad you made it through the typhoon. That water looked so scary!
The food looks delicious!
Great follow up,glad you arrived safely and not seasick!
"I cannot eat sea urchin though" - this made me laugh so hard that some beer came out of my nose. What a wonderful channel, relaxing and entertaining :)
Very relaxing, as always!!
Thank you for these recordings, I can’t explain how much I appreciate it! ❤️
Part two did not disappoint! Can't wait for your next upload!
Wow, it looks so cozy to sleep in a nice warm bed during that kind of storm with the rocking motion.
Really cool you took a longer voyage :)
Love the waves as I never got sea sick and the sense of humour on the curry rice which you seem to like :)
My favorite room so far! And a bath with a View!
So glad you came prepared for the stormy sea this time. : )
Thanks for showing a stormy trip. I was beginning to think that the ocean in Japan is never rough!
This seems like an interesting trip and I'm glad that you broke it up into 2 videos. I clicked on another ferry video yesterday and something felt missing. I checked the name of the creator and they do just what you do but there was no feeling to it. You share so much with us that it feels like we are all friends along on the trip with you.
Kuga's Travel? One of his videos came up on my feed yesterday too. Subbed to him, I enjoyed what I watched. I do prefer this channel though.
@@francisjackson8254 Exactly, I tried to watch a few but it's just not friendly. It follows the same format but is missing the comments of really being our guide to what is going on.
Exactly, would love to travel around with him one day, when we are freeer.
@@donnamanitu8673 , I agree. I watched a few Kuga's Travels and I had the same feeling. I'm sure he's a nice person, but STJ makes you feel like you're a friend he's showing around, talking, laughing and joking like friends do.
RUclips recommended this channel a couple of days ago.
I thought "what"?
Then I watched one yesterday.
And several more.
They are awesome.
And then I watched this one.
You are ok in the rough seas because your wonderful cabin is on the centerline.
I want to travel in that cabin.
And all over many ferries in Japan.
I would need someone to help with language and food.
But I will continue watching this channel.
Did you notice I posted in the style of the captions?
Because they are awesome!
Trebuchet, I think if you watch most of STJ's videos you'll see how much Japan is oriented towards english speaking tourists. A lot of signage and voice announcements are given in english, especially in the transportation sector. Besides this channel there are other good ones where you can learn about japanese food. Now that you've watched a few of STJ'S, RUclips algorithms will be throwing other channels your way. Good luck, I hope you get to travel there some day.
So glad I found your channel. Your videos are soothing and relaxing. They are perfect to watch before going to bed. Thanks for the sweet travel dreams. 👍
This popped onto my feed 2 minutes before I found it. I’m glad because I was afraid I’d missed it. I’ve never been seasick (knock on wood, lol) but those waves just might have done it. Really enjoy these ferry trips; thanks for sharing. I especially like the fact that you tell me what you’re eating. Some of that looks really good. Can’t wait for the next video!
I like this channel due to the English. One channel I like to watch is in all Japanese, so I never understand what is being said, but I enjoy watching anyway. You survived the journey yay!
Yay!!! Finally, the next episode that I have been waiting for. Thanks!
When he said he's not that hungry, and then there's 2 half breads on his plate 😅and when I saw a curry rice bowl 😂🤭
I swear the humor of Mr. solo travel Japan is 👏😎
I swear I'm gonna gain 10 pounds watching these videos...the food looks so good that it makes me hungry and I run out to my kitchen to get snacks to eat while I watch 🤣😂
I was waiting for your video i really enjoyed it and loved it . God bless you mate ❤️💕👏🏻
Jumping on/off ships, trains cars, bushes. Ship rolling, rest rocking. Still you can take a bit of food. Thanks for doing it for me.
9:20 Bless the family that brought the baby. These people don't often get the comfort and understanding of their fellow voyageurs AND they have to deal with a crank boat on top. Lend them a hand.
Thank you for producing your solo travel videos. It gives me a feeling like I am on these trips.
My favorite part is seeing what your next meal will be!😁
Oh my, I saved the best till last. My fav cabin, food, voyage, the entry into Nagoya is awesome.
I would love it. I always wanted to take a cruise from the time I was 18 to now 62
I’m always so excited when I see you’ve posted another ferry video! It’s so much fun to watch your travels since it’s not possible for me right now.
I’m glad you’ve enjoyed the journey! Thanks for the video 👍👍👍
I really enjoy your videos. I find them soothing.
I've been waiting for this one 💛
Your channel often opens my mind to new things! It's amazing! I love traveling with you. Thanks for this! Appreciate it! ❤️
That was a beautiful sunset 🌇 after a stormy start....
Ugh I wish I could join you on a trip sometime! I love being on ships and the food looks amazing!
So happy that you really got to enjoy this ferry cruise and the great cabin! Totally worth it having a bigger cabin as you had lots of space and all meals included! You deserved the luxury!
This ferry looks way better then the one you took from Okinawa to Kagoshima.😄✌️🗾 Thanks for sharing. One of my close friends lives in Nagoya. Went there once to see the baseball game between the Dragons and the Hawks. Hello from Saga back in the days.
Great video as usual. Loved the sunset and that under bridge shot.
Wow so gonna do these cruise trips when I travel to Japan after Covid! Enjoy your videos! 👍
What an exciting video with rough seas! Your room was gorgeous and that sunset was divine! You share all the best parts of these journeys. LOVE your videos!
glad that you've prepared for seasick this time haha. and i enjoyed you taking coffee, ice cream etc. as every time you showed that they taste even better on the ferry. 🤤🤤
I love seeing all the parts of the boat and all the little discoveries you made!
That movie theatre reminded me of church... specifically a Catholic one. The seats looked like pews and the cards were like programs.
These videos have become my favorite thing on youtube.
A lot of food, amazing appetite and no people around…love your videos!
