[@toanhoang23_12]

It's been great living in Japan for 7 years now and I'm doing youtube in Japan😊

[@osakameetup]

I recommend any visitors to join a meetup. It’s a rare opportunity to meet and talk to locals in Japan who like to speak English and meet foreigners.

[@olivia.anelise]

Thanks for the tip!

[@amariluna]

How can I find out about them? I'm thinking of visiting Japan at the end of the year. Can you recommend any that are safe for an older woman travelling alone?

[@jannatm1692]

Welcome to Japan🇯🇵✨
Glad you had a wonderful time in Japan!!
日本に来てくれてありがとう！

[@olivia.anelise]

Thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@JapanJacques]

Lovely video! After living in Japan for a few years it's easy to fall into the trap of not appreciating the small things that someone coming with a fresh perspective notices. This has inspired me to document my life in Tokyo more and keep trying to make videos that showcase this lovely country to the rest of the world.

[@olivia.anelise]

Thanks so much! Can't wait to watch your future vlogs! ☺

[@brendalee1093]

@JapanJaques what is your RUclips channel?

[@Atamayama]

The tasteful image editing and music made it feel like I was watching a movie. Thank you for coming to Japan! Please come back to Japan again! Thank you for the beautiful video!😊🇯🇵

[@olivia.anelise]

Thank you so much! I'm happy you enjoyed it! :)

[@_toaya5235]

Very good atmospheric editing.
I enjoyed the images with less talking and more scenery and music flowing unobtrusively!

[@olivia.anelise]

Thank you very much!

[@JimL666]

Beautiful moments! And so many coffee houses... love it. Thank you.

[@olivia.anelise]

I'm so happy you enjoyed it! ☺

[@user-okibariyasu]

I’m delightful for your positive introducing Japanese daily life ,
especially food, store, transportation, prices and total convention.
Also I love Japan for its cleanliness and kindness of people.
As one of Asian countries, we should learn from Japan , though.

[@olivia.anelise]

I'm so happy you enjoyed the video. I agree!

[@dwalker6868]

Thank you for sharing. Glad you enjoyed yourself. I can’t wait to visit.

[@olivia.anelise]

Thanks for watching! Hope you get to visit soon. 😊

[@annadubois7630]

This video was so cool! I went to Tokyo in 2019, and now I plan to go back next year, and it gave me so many ideas to experience the city differently :)

[@olivia.anelise]

Aww thank you so much! I'm so happy you enjoyed it! ☺️

[@kazzokamoto8260]

Hey, really a nIce video! Great you love our country. Hope for you to come back again to further enjoy the sights and sounds of Japan.

[@olivia.anelise]

Thank you so much 🫶🏼

[@be.loui.]

thanks for this lovingly curated and cut video, watched the whole thing, so relaxing and interesting!! :)

[@olivia.anelise]

Thank you!! I'm so happy you enjoyed it! 🥰

[@user-dy4qn4eu8u]

My favorite town is Kuramae which is near Asakusa. Everywhere in the town is a photogenic spot and very cool. Kuramae is also called the Brooklyn of Tokyo.

[@olivia.anelise]

Oh wow, I didn't know that. Thanks for sharing! ☺️

[@PeaasPod]

Wait yr my dream ! I’m from Chicago and was stationed in Japan for 6 years , I love Japan vlogs. Yr videos are so good 😍😍

[@olivia.anelise]

How cool!! Thank you so much!

[@nikolawright1241]

I would love to spend a few months in Japan. I hope to do that one day.

[@rickyraharjo6592]

I JUST found your channel, i like coffee too, keep exploring coffee in the world, greeting from Indonesia, we have specialty coffee in here too

[@olivia.anelise]

Thank you so much! I hope to explore more of Indonesia someday!

[@nothing-uu2bv]

My first time watching your vlog. Really enjoyed 😊

[@olivia.anelise]

Yay! Thank you! 🙏🏼💜

[@aaronmacken]

Wow amazing. Looks like so much fun. What a great adventure

[@olivia.anelise]

Thank you 🙏🏼

[@priyavvenkat]

loved the way you've vlogged, beautiful!

[@olivia.anelise]

Thank you so much!!

[@venusradiance]

y'all really love your coffee!!! great vlog :)

[@olivia.anelise]

haha yes!! thank you!

[@bethklein805]

oh my gosh - this is kinda my dream. we love japan so much! we'd probably stay in Shimokitazawa, since that's our favorite neighborhood!

[@olivia.anelise]

awww same here! there's no place like it in the world

[@dayla8634]

You better do it quick because it has changed. I helped a friend move there almost 10 years ago and I thought it was awesome. Went last year and it was so commercialized since the last time I was there.

[@bethklein805]

That's so interesting. We went four years ago, and then just this last holiday time. I actually enjoyed it even more this time and found it more fun, better food, more convenient, and just generally loved the atmosphere more. With that being said, there are still very little airbnbs or accommodations there, so you really have to want to stay in the thick of it. To each their own though! @@dayla8634

[@ddnn974]

I went to Tokyo in September and it was still very hot and humid. I hope you had better weather !

[@olivia.anelise]

I was there in July-August and October-November and personally liked summer weather 😂

[@brendalee1093]

I’m a new subscriber to your channel & I really enjoyed this vid and read most of comments! You reminded me that I need to upgrade my IPhone 11! 😂 I can’t wait to check out more vlogs from both of you! So unique & inspiration that your remote work gives you this flexibility & enjoyment of actual work! Thank you! ❤

[@olivia.anelise]

Thanks for your sweet comment ☺️
Haha, it's really incredible what the iPhone can do 😂 I hope you get to upgrade soon!

[@flame0111]

Such a beautiful country fosho..... The culture, the vibes are absolutely second to none! Definitely a dream country... Beautiful video btw.🌸🫶🏼🩷

[@olivia.anelise]

Thank you so much 🙏🏼

[@manamitsubaki4542]

I just finished watching your video. It beautifully captured ordinary Japanese scenery, reminiscent of the films of Yasujirō Ozu. 日本人としてとても嬉しいです。ありがとうございます。これからも頑張ってください❤

[@olivia.anelise]

Thank you so much 🥹💜

[@foolishness9395]

Am new to your channel, its great , love the music ,the camera work ,looking forward to the next one

[@kurotaka007]

Welcome fellow Chicagoan! Been here for over 2 years. Nice to see your perspective. I know Osaka is Chicago’s sister city, but haven’t made it there yet. Pretty much everywhere else. All the best!

[@olivia.anelise]

Wow that's so cool! It's definitely worth a visit. Thanks for watching!

[@razon]

soothing video, thank you!

[@olivia.anelise]

glad you enjoyed it!

[@MichaelaMcGrady]

Love this video! Are you comfortable sharing where you stayed? Currently looking for short term rentals in Tokyo ❤

[@amariluna]

Amazing video! It's easy to romanticize Japan but how could you not! The place is so special. My dream is to go back again for that same length of time. I got a few ideas of places to go which I haven't been to before in Tokyo. Thank you. Looking forward to your Osaka adventures.

[@olivia.anelise]

Thanks so much for your comment. I hope you get to go back soon 💜

[@sam86632]

Do you ever worry about having language issues or barriers when you travel? How do you manage that?

[@olivia.anelise]

Of course, it can be challenging/intimidating, but I remind myself I'm not the only one out there doing it. Google translate, and just trying your best are also a big help :)

[@user-jv6zv6qj2n]

I'm from Chicago now living in Japan. I love it here.

[@olivia.anelise]

So cool!! How long have you been living there?

[@tenminutetokyo2643]

I did the same a few years ago for 2 months and it was a blast.

[@olivia.anelise]

A dream come true!!

[@mmughal]

We did one month in Sumida ward it was amazing - 😊 hope you had a good time

[@PLSZNOPHOTOS]

Dope video! Want to go to Japan so bad. You guys sure do drink ALOT of coffee

[@olivia.anelise]

Thanks!! Haha yes we do.

[@tatdiano694]

The trains are great. It's cool to have emphasized them.

[@olivia.anelise]

I love trains in Japan 😊

[@denniscostantini4179]

Wow so beautiful and clean I can see why you like it

[@olivia.anelise]

Yes 😊

[@Tnakamura11]

I am glad that you chose a non tourist place, Taiko ku, I believe. Keikyu is elevated in most parts to avoide accidents. So their trains are actually smaller than JR ones.999

[@olivia.anelise]

ahh that's good to know! thank you!

[@ddnn974]

It’s Taito ku, isn’t it?

[@semihayilmaz4303]

Your video is perfect...İt gave me many ideas... Thank you and pleace cotinue to share videos frim Tokyo...

[@olivia.anelise]

Thank you for your kind comment. I’m happy you enjoyed the video 😊 More Tokyo videos coming very soon 💜

[@Earth2marss]

Am new to your channel and im totally subscribing amazing video! Do you film with a specific camera or just your phone? 💗💗💗

[@olivia.anelise]

Thank you so much! ☺ I filmed this entirely on my iPhone 14 Pro Max, but I sometimes film/take photos on a Sony a6400.

[@valeriaramos5562]

Love these videos! So cool. Do you guys both have remote jobs?

[@olivia.anelise]

Thank you so much! Yes, we do.

[@Andromeda_185]

I love Japan so much 🥹

[@olivia.anelise]

[@diribastabasta]

Great vlog. What camera are you using?

[@olivia.anelise]

iPhone 14 Pro Max 😊

[@maromar475]

Thank you! The Video is absolutely relaxing and transports me to your journey. How much does the price cost for cafes and food for a day in Tokyo? That would be very helpful , thank you again

[@olivia.anelise]

I'm so happy you enoyed the vlog. Cafes aren''t too bad comparative to the US (roughly $2.50-3.5 USD at current exchange rate for a latte) and food can be extremely affordable if you eat at local, Japanese restaurants or convenience stores. If you choose western experiences, you will pay more western prices.

[@kawencreates]

what camera are you using? its sooo amazing, i love the way you film your videos! so aesthetic ✨

[@olivia.anelise]

thank you!! 😊 it’s all filmed on my iPhone 14 pro max. I do adjust the record and exposure settings a little and color grade in Final Cut Pro.
I love your profile pic btw 🥰

[@Jayesh-gy6pb]

🙏🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

[@am7jeremy]

Out of all the coffee spots which one stood out the most?

[@olivia.anelise]

Oh, man! There are so many good ones. I loved OFF coffee for a real japanese cafe feel, train views and the taiyaki is unreal. Lattest has delicious, fluffy lattes. Blue Bottle is great for design lovers as every location around Japan is unique (the Kyoto ones are my fave.) But honestly, there are so many more I didn't get to check out that I hope to next time around.

[@jimbrown4869]

Great stuff!

[@olivia.anelise]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@YoshiteruTomisaka-gb3on]

Even ordinary city scenes are stylish and cool.

[@keyemcee399]

what month were you around in tokyo? I love the weather, it doesn’t seem to be too hot and too cold either. I’m planning to book my trip around the time you visited, it looks so perfect! 🍃
Also the neighborhood you guys stayed in looks soo laid back and peaceful!

[@olivia.anelise]

We spent all of October in Tokyo. Overall, it was beautiful weather, and it started to cool down closer to November. I would just plan to bring layers because it was sweater weather for some days, and on others, I definitely needed a jacket, lol.
We stayed off of Yahiro station. The only downside was there were not a lot of restaurants or cafes directly nearby, so we had to walk for about 15-20 minutes or take the train to a stopover. I recommend Hikfune if you want to be near more, and it's only a stopover from where we were closer to Skytree. I also like this area because it's only a few stops from Asakusa.

[@keyemcee399]

Thank you!!!! This is so helpful 🤍

You're welcome 💜

I love that you choose to eat something like a vegan burger. A lot of these videos I watch show people eating meat all the time. It is refreshing to see other food.

How do you find accommodation while moving?

[@olivia.anelise]

We've used many different ways but for Japan we used airbnb & agoda.

I know it might be a bit difficult to do, but if you were to compare Nyc and Tokyo, which one would you prefer to live in? and which would you recommend someone to move to?

How were you able to work remotely? I know most remote positions out of the USA have a country requirement where they track your location. Is this your own business?

[@olivia.anelise]

Thanks for your comment. I'll share more in an upcoming video, but we are lucky that my partner's company was fully remote before 2020. No, they do not track his location or care where he works from as long as the work is done. I also freelance/create social media content.
