    Hey Ralph & Sam, just wanted to thank you for all your great Tokyo travel vlogs! It was thanks to your last Ginza video that I got to enjoy and explore New Torigin and Ginza 6 (and of course a bunch of other locations too from all your other videos haha)!
    Whenever you next find yourselves back in Tokyo, I highly highly recommend the Edo-Tokyo Open Air Architectural Museum for photos and for architecture (the park is also excellent during cherry blossom season). I also recommend Giraffe Ties in Sendagaya if either of you are ever interested in quirky ties or bow ties!

    • @RalphSam
      @RalphSam  4 месяца назад +2

      Always so happy to hear people give New Torigin a chance 🍢
      And thank you for the recs! We find ourselves back in Tokyo quite often, so we're always looking for things to do. Giraffe ties and the Edo Open Air Museum sound fantastic 😊

    3:45 Ralph looks so handsome without his glasses. He goes from looking all chic to GQ
    15:10 The photographer for the ping pong table spent 5 years taking a picture of that table and no one ever used it for its purpose but everything else!
    I smiled for 23 minutes. Thank you for giving me this video to start the week. I feel refreshed!
