    “To retar” is an english word meaning “to provide with a new coating of tar”. It doesn’t help the understanding, so I found out that there is also an Ainu word spelt “retar” (with the Kana spelling being レタル) that means “to be white”. So I’m assuming that it’s meant to be a “spa to be white/clean”.

      Yeah their website confirms レタル is white in the Ainu language.
      I've not heard much Ainu being spoken so I don't know if it is pronounced "Retaru" as the katakana suggests or "Retar"...

    Golden Kamuy is in my opinion one of the best anime/manga out there. Incredible story, amazing characters, top tier humour and overall just a fantastic time. A lot of the characters are fictionalized versions of real people like Shiratori Yoshie (The Escape King). Genuenly recommend it to anyone looking for a new series to watch. Could not stop watching it when I got started. Happy to see Joey bring it up since I rarely hear about it from others.
    Overall amazing video Joey, you always manage to make a tough day better!

It takes 10-20 minutes to even start feeling heat in the car when driving. It is rather unpleasant (it sucks so much when it gets that cold).

    That hotel gave me backroom/liminal vibes for some reason.
    Very distinctive appearance from outside, and a big contrast to its environment.
    The heater area having seats as if people should be there surrounding it and keeping warm (but of course the heater was off for some reason).
    The room being very odd, or maybe dated.
    Just something odd about the place, but not necessarily bad if you ask me.
    ...
    But anyways, I love Joey's vlog style. It's always felt cosy and never over the top.
    Hokkaido is a place I'd love to visit one day. That can be said about anywhere in Japan, but Hokkaido and Okinawa in particular have very different vibes compared to the rest of Japan.
    Glad that I got a little snippet into the Hokkaido trip, Joey!

    For retar, it may come from the Ainu word レタル meaning "to be white", which my best guess is another way of saying "to be clean", which makes sense when applied to the spa. Perhaps a member of the Ainu is a staff there and wrote the sign, or perhaps they get alot of Ainu people staying there so they wrote that to help them understand?

    Loved this vlog! I want to visit Hokkaido now. How much did the dog sledding cost?

    I would rather compare Ainu to the Sami people that still lives in the northern parts of Scandinavia, rather than the vikings. I see some similarities in their way of life as well.
    btw. Golden Camuy the animé is great!

    2:31 That looks like a room from my grandparents' former log cabin. The bottom beds were where my grandma and grandpa slept and the top bed was for children. I slept there many years before growing up and giving the spot to my brother. Ceiling was so low that even 10-year-old would hit their head when sitting there.

    It looked like the steam from the train intentionally avoided covering everyone on the road lol like it arched over all of you specifically to allow the camera to get a good shot of it.
