Your inclusion of b-roll shots literally ties your videos together for me! I love the tranquil aura that makes me feel like I'm just taking a stroll right next to you! Ughh, I'm so excited to follow your journey!
My season of life is peace. After being in a mental and emotional state of emergency for almost 10 yrs, I’ve finally found my baseline and I’m so at peace.
I deeply appreciate the shots of the buildings and flowers and streets. It really feels like we're just walking and talking with a friend. So happy to hear that you're enjoying the alignment you have with the culture 💜💯✨ love you Queen
A fellow introvert here. I've been to many cities but Tokyo, as hectic and in-your-face as it can be, always gives me the space that I need to be one with myself. All the soft, little momeths. It's the reason why I keep going back.
I find myself wanting to head back to Japan for a short trip every time I feel lost. I think it’s a country of solitude, I love the distance between me and other people but at the same time I feel so warm and welcomed.
I went there alone last time and I felt nothing but peace and comfort inside of me. I love love love walking with you in these videos, like I’m a passerby.
I think Japan is a country made for us walkers😂, love the content lately, thank you for inspiring me Misako💚
Beautifully done. Thank you for your openness. I've been to Japan several times alone, and I have never felt as grounded, secure, balanced, and light as I have there. People were kind when I needed, but mostly gave me the space to just *breathe*!!! Keep going and growing. Congratulations!
it's winter here in south africa but feels like an internal summer. love the filmic quality of your videos. beautifully shot. these videos feel like i'm catching up with a friend, who lives on the other side of the world
I got goosebumps when you said there was one love/relationship line through Japan! Love these regular video uploads- feels like a friend checking in :) so happy to see you happy and thriving
I found your channel last week and I’m loving your videos.
I’m currently in the season of true self discovery after ending a very emotional draining relationship of two years. I’m the mother to two adult daughters and I have a seven month old grandson. Needless to say, I’ve been pouring into everyone else except myself. I’m beginning to take more time for me, and I’m planning some solo trips to get to know who I am at the age of 45. Better late than never, right?!
Thank you for the inspiration 🙏🏽
Hello Ms. Angie, aren't these videos a breath of fresh air? I am a 50-year-old Dutch guy, living in Berlin. Kinda stuck in life, and these videos are so inspiring. I hope you will take yourself on some amazing journeys. Greetings from Berlin.
Hello Angie, I hope you get to do some solo travel in the near future. I personally cherish those moments of serendipity one experiences in solo travel that you miss out on when you are distracted by keeping up with the group. Happy travels.
@@michaeldebree4870 Greetings to you! I definitely plan on seeing the world and making some beautiful memories!
@@vanessawitcher8996 Hello! I’m certainly looking forward to it!
Thank you so much for this content. I am 57 and have a Don entering college in September. I have always been interested in Asia it was preferably Korea, but I have seen several black women in Japan and I am curious to see if I would like that better. Keep bringing us content. Have a wonderfully blessed day 💕🙏🏽
Thanks for posting these vlogs! They're helpful for introverted travelers around the world
This video, with the music in the background, has brought me so much peace! Hope you continue to enjoy your time in Tokyo!
Me too I like places like this! ♡
I love the music and vibe of these walking videos you've been doing. When I visited Japan for 10 days back in 2018, that's all I could do, I just wanted go everywhere and visually absorb the city - especially when I visited Kyoto.
Would you ever do try these in an interview format as well? I would love to continue seeing parts of the city while having meaningful conversation with others who've moved to japan or folks who grew up in the area.
Your videos are so good for my nervous system.
My season is searching, for me and what I am meant to do.
Astrocartography is such an incredible tool to use for relocation. It's really interesting though. I have always been highly intuitive and follow the doorways ( or try to ) that open up for me freely, and that are welcoming, versus forced. Once I began to look at my astrocartography, many of the places that I was drawn to or that opened up for me naturally were DIRECTLY along those lines or even where two lines intersected. I just made a move over the last few days back to a place where I feel at home. Knowing the significance of the line that passes through this city, it makes sense now. This season of life I am in is one of Freedom, Joy, Truth, and ultimately Alignment with where I want to be and to begin to establish new roots; leaning in to what I need over trying to live a life that appeases others, which is really just self-deprecation on some level. Wishing you the best of luck on this new journey!
Im loving the peacefulness in thus vlog. Im in a season of being with myself when socialising.
Priority is presence with self, so authentic relationships can unfold.
I love your content. This video really speaks to my heart. Wishing you all the best. ❤
Long life introvert here, I enjoyed this one so much I’m watching it a second time just after it’s finished! I’m also coming to Japan in October but only for a two week trip. I hope I experience the same energy.
It is summer where I am, the east coast of the U.S. But as I watched your video and listened to your words I thought I am spiritually in a fall/winter season. Hope that makes sense
Your vlogs are very motivational and inspiring, I am going to Japan finally in Sept. and I cannot wait to get back into vlogging and filming. You are such a vibe and a beautiful soul. I'm also an introvert and I hear from my friends who live there that it is an introvert's paradise haha
Hi! I started to watch all your videos and it’s so calming and I felt like you’re talking to us like friends. I’m super introvert as well and as Japanese, I would like to say thank you for liking our country. Japan is really for introvert people.😅☺️🫶
yes!!
Also check out the planet that is ruling over the 7th house of your birth chart - because if you're 30 years old, then you're in the 30th protection year, which is the 7th house, which is great for finding love. Also, look at the house that the ruling planet of your 7th sits in - maybe it's in the 9th house of foreign land and travel or in the sign of Sagittarius or Aquarius ;) I would be so curious to know more about your chart!
I used to be outgoing and extroverted a couple years ago, but these days I really enjoy being home and being alone. I catch myself feeling lonely with other people. I like the time I spend with myself, it is not wasted time. I wish I could better my social anxiety, that's something I am struggling with currently. It's nice to see you showing us your life, makes me use some ideas for my own decisions.
I love that you now keep the music during the b-roll! Not only is your voice and content very interesting but the videos are beautiful
You have an amazing eye for videography, and I’m sure photography as well.
As an extrovert, I'm always in a social season. ;)
I think your take on Japan and your experiences are so refreshing
Let’s go new vlog 🔥🔥
I’m not sure what season I am in right now. Got broken up with a few days ago, so today is the worst birthday ever 🥲. I think the season is gonna be: do everything to get myself leveled up professionally and personally. And to become a person that people can only look up to.
Another beautiful and introspective vlog. Love, love love these virtual walks with you. Sooo peaceful. Thanks for sharing this part of your day with us.😊
I love your videos! I feel like I am walking and listening to a friend. I love the music and the serene atmosphere, it makes me want to move to Japan! Thank you for the talks and walks. I will definitely fit into Japanese lifestyle as I too am an introvert and love taking time and explore what others might consider boring! Thank you again!
I love to see you thriving. Your videos are so healing.
i’m high rn and i love watching your videos. i’ve dreamed of going to japan for so long and im finally going in September this year! i’m also introverted but like to explore and see different cultures so i feel like japan would be perfect! thanks for your videos. best of luck ❤
Just 3 things.. 1) your vlogs are ‘fresh air’
2) these walk & talks are addictive as ‘we’ are all with you on the sidewalk and also looking for cars when crossing streets.
3) yup, evening sunset is a work of art..
TAYQ. the season of the character, Neo.
What a beautiful place, loved the shots. Enjoy this new season 🤍
Your neighborhood looks so peaceful 💜
Thank you for sharing your video. Stay blessed.
i watch a variety of videos on Japan and other places to travel and/or live and i love your introverted chill vibe. you sharing what's present for you in the place you are along with tips gives me a beautiful perspective as it's not just about what are all the cool things to do.
hearing about how silence seems to be valued like on the train makes me feel it would be a good fit for me considering my noise and stimulation sensitivity. i think i might struggle with the individual booth type arrangement for eating meals though, as i spend 99.9% of my time alone so when i go out it's to see people even if i don't interact. 🤣 it's a skill (maybe not the word i want) to be happy being to yourself.
i've been in the all by myself season but i feel that will be shifting. loved the sunset it wasn't too dark to me.
Ooooh this is a really pretty area! As a fellow introvert I get it. Love the slow peaceful pace of your videos.
I just moved out of my birth state in the US and can definitely say that I am realizing the negative effects my close relationships have caused within me. People pleasing is one for sure that I have identified. It comes up in the oddest moments yet I am grateful that it is happening. I was in survival mode in my previous city and for the script to change like it has was needed for me to heal.
I would never get lonely there,so much to do and learn. You have the surrounding areas also. So ready to visit.
I'm so happy for you, I'm in the same season. Thank you for sharing ❤😅🎉
There is a very reputable and famous artist residency in Japan.
im also hermitting and locking in! I made a big move this year and had to move back in with family for financial reasons. I love your videos!
You really just sold me on returning. I visited in April/May but with 5 others..... never again! I need solitude and don't feel lonely when I'm alone.
I'm in my social season I think. I'm also an introvert but lately have been desiring more socializing even tho it can be draining. I love these walking videos, makes me feel like I'm back there and walking with you. Got excited when you said your love/romance line went thru Japan! I'm sure wonderful things will be unfolding for you there.
I love the natural background. All of the street details and signs are what I miss from Japan. It’s so refreshing compared to other Japan content which can feel a little over-done. (Those videos are still beautiful just not my style - personal preference)
Nice video, and I really like your camera work.
I feel like this is why I would do well in Japan. While I enjoy my friends, family, and partner I really value my alone time. I am not afraid to go out and do things alone, in fact I really enjoy it.
My season is to re-navigate the paths that I was walking at.
I can understand how an introvert would love Japan. However, for those like me that are middle of the road, I would say it’s challenging meeting people here. What about when you need intimacy, what do you do? Tokyo, for men can be easy to find that if you know what I mean. But about for ladies?
I really enjoyed this one. The musical score was on point as well do you write the scores in your videos? Alone time is a super under-rated skill these. In an era of social media, social battery and social comparing. Folks are forgetting what its like to be alone, what its like to be bored, what its like to just be alone with yourself and with nothing but thoughts. Flex that alone muscle!
As a fellow introvert I understand you so much! for us, loneliness never exists or appears from no were. I wish I had emigrated to Japan when I was younger.
That's the kind of freedom i dream of everyday. I just need to get away from everyone
Mmm. Sounds perfect. Delicious solo living. I am an extroverted introvert who is in a long term relationship with an Introvert. We are definitely looking at Japan . The culture is rich in respect, creativity and peaceful solitude. It sounds like a dream.
I’m in the season of appreciation. Technically I’m supposed to be in my all time low (financially, career wise,I live in a country at war) but damn, I have never felt more alive.
😊
Hola Misako! Greetings from Oregon!
japan/tokyo seems to be such a juxtaposition haha. before i said they have such a big city and infrastructure but also lots of nature. now you mention its paradise for introverts because people mind their own business and lots of things can be individualized like eating by yourself in those single person booths. BUT they also seem so community based because of things like everyone watching over the little kids walking home, students cleaning their school, neighborhood associations, etc. they got that balance✨😌
My Season Of Life Is Comfortable.
My experience in Tokyo is similar. I was actually much more social living in another part of Japan (Fukuoka) for several years -- this was before the pandemic. But, coming to Tokyo in late 2019, going through a breakup during the first wave in 2020, and now living alone for four full years, most of my days/nights are spent on my own. It has its pluses and minuses, and obviously I can go out and socialize if/when I want to (bars, music events, etc.), but I tend to spend a lot of time alone just doing music, taking walks in nature, and doing RUclips talks as you are doing for my page (I also discuss solitude and etc. on my page.)
This video is like a visual version of the book Wabi Sabi for artists, designers, poets and philosophers.
Do you feel a sense of community? I hope you do with your fan base!
Hi there, looking great 😊 must say I am new here
Do you think Japan is your final stop?
"Japan is an introvert's paradise." This this this!
Only in Japan can you drop in a restaurant [not just fast food!] for a bite to eat alone and it's not strange and you don't have to pretend to befriend a waiter so they don't spit in your food lol [and they don't have to pretend to like you for a tip lol].
Are you done with Mexico City
I couldn't imagine feeling lonely in Japan everything has so much thought put into it you'd almost have to be blind to life 😂
blax
Now that you've been in Japan for a while, you'll soon be faced with the complex rules for garbage disposal.
Go to your city hall, get a garbage disposal calendar, and ask a senior immigrant for help.
The garbage disposal problem is the first challenge for immigrants.
Please take a few months to discipline your body.
I’m a new subscriber and I’m loving your videos. This beautiful journey you are on as a POC is so important for people to see. Inspiring and moving and Brave. I’m mixed/black and non-binary soon to be leaving the US (been here for 24 years) and moving to Berlin. Germany is my original homeland so your energy is very much where I am at. It’s getting reacquainted with something you’re connected to. I can’t wait to also show POC that this world is filled with so many magical things for us outside of the U.S… anyways so excited to see your quest continue and your self evolution throughout❣️
