    I see comments criticizing your Japanese pronunciation or urging you to do more research before visiting, but don't worry about that at all! The reason I enjoy watching your vlog is exactly because of your travel style; it's not simply consuming items heavily researched on the internet before visiting. It's so much fun to see you just dive into a place, walk around parts unknown, and experience the surprises and excitement of discovering stuff you never expected. I'm Japanese, and we know the pronunciation of those Roman letters is too confusing. Nobody thinks you're being disrespectful just because you can't pronounce those names perfectly. It's rather cute, actually 😂

    Don't worry if you get a bad result from a Japanese omikuji. It is a sign that more and more good luck will come after this.

    It was a bit early to enjoy sakura blossoms in Japan.
    This year, their blooming was about 5 days later than the average year.
    You're lucky to see one tree almost fully blossomed.
    Hopefully, you'll come back and enjoy many sakura trees in full bloom next year.
    By the way, you don't need to worry about your Japanese pronunciation or your vlog style.
    I'm Japanese, but I know it's difficult for foreigners to pronounce Japanese, just as English is difficult for us.
    And I like your vlog style of exploring towns and dropping in anywhere you're curious about.
    Tourists don't necessarily have to go to the most famous places or eat the most popular food.
    Everyone has their own way of enjoying things.

    If you want to see Sakura in Tokyo but don’t want to deal with crowds or tourist I recommend going to Nerima-ku. Tons of Sakura there and barely any tourists. I would recommend Oizumi Gakuen’s Sakura Dori. It’s beautiful the road loads like a sakura tunnel.

    While I’m not in Japan this time, I’ll settle for the yearly cherry blossom festival at Branch brook in New Jersey. Last time I went, there were dances, flower arrangements, food stalls and arts. The best was the cherry trees on peak bloom, all pink and white trees. For now, Sakura festival in Japan is on my bucket list.. soon 😉

      @@richardpels7022 Uh yes it is. I live in Hawaii and there are a lot of Japanese words that we use in everyday life that I learned as a kid because of a lot of Japanese immigrants that came here to work in the plantation fields. Words such as benjo, sukoshi, habuteru, omiyage, musubi, shoyu, tako, Jan Ken Po, Urusai among some. Japanese words have become a part of Hawaii culture for decades. So I knew how to pronounce Japanese words even before I took a Japanese language class. My dad taught me how to say Arigato when I was a child. I don't speak fluent Japanese but I can pick up on certain words. I've even eaten Japanese foods as a kid not really knowing it was Japanese food until I got older because it's become a part of my Hawaii culture growing up. Japanese influence in Hawaii is very strong.
