    Your sense of joy when traveling is amazing to watch, and it's gotten zanier since you've met Chris.

    Hannah chan! Thank you for always taking us to the places and let us experience things I've never done before..! I
    especially enjoyed driving in the snow😆😆⛄️☃️❄️❄️

    OMG wow! I love the snow and the cultural experiences, I mean food, and the carts under the shinkansen platform blow my mind!

    @edwardtrinidad7541 2 года назад +5

    Man what a fun video! The dynamic subtitles, your Skier Anime Training Arc, Chris's honest opinion about your skiing, and all the snow!...and always a chuckle from any "that's what she said" because I never grew up...

    For people from tropical country, a vision of snow is a major travel experience.

    This is why Japan is so strong in the Winter Olympics. People in northern part of Japan all learn winter sports such as skiing from childhood. In Niigata, even children as young as five years old can ski.

    Thanks to you and Chris for making and sharing this video. It’s enchanting especially when I can’t travel to a place like this for a long while to come given the pandemic! 😘

    So good! You 2 having a great time and putting together a great video with good vibes. That place looked like an absolute winter wonderland. Think more travel companies need to be getting you both onboard to showcase the beautiful places in Japan. Even my Japanese partner loved this video and said how beautiful it looked. Well done guys!!

    Gooooodness, adore your vids. You two are so much fun, and adventurous and goofy. The way you put action into your travels as in actually do activities and not just go to the same old same old destinations. Really bring the wonder and joy of japan to your vids, I hope you two have an amazing 2022!

  • @kvasko2
    @kvasko2 2 года назад +4

    Wow! You really did a great job making this feel like a dream winter trip (+🍓). Also, the epic fall on skis was fun (kudos for feeling comfortable sharing things you might not be good at in your videos!). As always, background music is on point. Those opening shots getting off the train, just masterfully done.

    I'm always in love with your videos, in my opinion you make the best videos about Japan!!! Truly, this cinematic but casual style is so good! 💛
    At the moment I can't afford to go to the trip you are offering, but I hope next time!

    You've put a huge grin on my dial, thanks guys... (those little skiers gliding past undignifiedly sprawled Hannah... gold)
    At the same time, I can picture a bunch of aussie ski fans silently crying while biting into their closed fist 🌩

  • @CatsJapaneseChannel
    @CatsJapaneseChannel 2 года назад +7

    Wow, now you can ski very well! Great improvement in such a short time 👍
    I love the part that the local kids past right next to you, though 😆So cute and funny.
    Thank you for your stylish & beautifully made videos💕ありがとうございます

  • @ShaneNixonFamily
    @ShaneNixonFamily 2 года назад +23

    The little kids reminded of a time we were skiing in Japan. We standing at the top of a run watching the kids go down. Heck they're good. But there was a fenced off hole cliff thing in the middle of the run. One little girl was nonchalantly belting down towards it. All the onlookers around us, mostly Japanese, started going OOOOOOOOOHH!!! louder and louder as she got closer. We all did because we thought a tragedy was unfolding. But this little legend just skidded to a stop just before the fence and turned and looked up the hill at us and shrugged as if to say, What!? 😂
    It is hilariously humiliating to be attacking a black run as if your life depends on it and then see group of 8 year olds just breeze past.
    Winter in Japan is the best even if you're not skiing. Which I think is what you were doing Hannah - not skiing 😂 Kidding! I think I spend almost as much time on my arse in the snow as standing up. 😂

    • @CurrentlyHannah
      @CurrentlyHannah  2 года назад +4

    @tinal8414 2 года назад +1

    In a recent video, you comment about being unfamiliar with dressing like and adult. Here, when you back into the snow wall, you reveal the refreshing charm of staying in close touch with the kid within. Long may it remain so. Onya, lassie.
    The new snow coats the world with a refreshing veneer of cleanliness which lifts the spirits - when you're NOT the one doing the shovelling!

    35 years ago, when Japan was in the bubble economy, ski resorts were very popular as resorts. Many of the apartments built at that time are old and have reached the end of their useful lives.
