After a rough, long ass day at work it was so comforting to find a new video waiting for me. The hum of the ship, the host's familiar routine...it all helps drain away some of the stress. Thank you for taking us on the ride. I can't be the only one who uses this as a sort of therapy. It works. :-)
No, you're not the only one. Often times, I find myself watching Solo Travel Videos to relax after a long day at work that I fall asleep because of the sound. It happened often enough that I had to set my TV on sleep timer in case I fall asleep.
Yes! I love his chilled style and I'm enjoying travelling vicariously with him, whilst we still can't travel even outside of our city here in Melbourne, Australia.
I'm not sure how much of it is clever camera angles, how much is timing, and how much is the virus, but it feels kind of eerie how empty the trains and ferries always seem to be. Like some kind of weird post-apocalyptic reality where everything is clean and works perfectly, but there's no one around. :)
@@aslamnurfikri7640 maybe someday. As of now from what I understand international travel into and out of Japan is still heavily restricted. But at the same time, a LOT of great content is coming out of Japan because those living there are doing pretty much all of their filming within the country itself. Less international tourists makes it a lot easier to film a lot of beautiful locations that would otherwise be overrun with tourists. Kyoto has been quieter than it has been in decades, but the upside is that people are filming it more freely and able to show the whole world why they should visit someday!
I've recently discovered your videos and love them. I've always felt a pull towards Japan but being in the USA it was always out of reach for me financially. Your videos allow me to see how special the water is for Japan. To my knowledge, there is no service comparable to the ferry services in Japan in the States. I still would love to see Japan as a tourist someday. Keep the videos coming!
Same I just recently found this channel and I’m a new subscriber. The only place I could think of something similar might be Hawaii. I’ve take ferries a few times on Lake Michigan, but I’ve only taken short rides from Door County to Washington Island. Longest Ferry I ever took was From New Zealand’s North Island to South Island. That was a massive ferry with movie theaters. But still only about 5 hours
There are some ferries in NJ, Delaware, Virginia & Maryland, but they are short rides and usually only offer snacks and drinks for the trip. However, there are river cruises that you can book in the coastal states and down south. They are sometimes overnight and offer entertainment as well as food and accommodation. Some of them are affordable and you can buy packages that include the bus trip to the boats. 😊
The continental US is contiguous, so there isn’t a geographical need for transportation like this. But Japan is a network of thousands of islands, big and small.
@@darkprose When you think about it, it's surprising that there isn't something similar to this to get to Hawaii - not a luxury cruise ship, but a more practical ferry, both for transporting personal freight (think moving houses, bringing your car) and for a fun experience. I'm sure there are ferries between the Islands, and I know there are some in Alaska (although still nothing like this).
A lot of the solo Japan travel channels do an excellent job of showing how to travel on a budget. They really show that traveling in Japan can be within reach for a lot of people as long as they don’t mind taking the slower modes of transportation and staying in things like capsules. I like this guy because he stays in everything from capsules to luxurious suites, and it looks like a lot of fun.
*sees "Guarana" on the White Bear label* "Oh no, is he going to be able to sleep? 😅 ...I guess so!" I was startled by how much the table (and the food on it) were vibrating. Ferry go nyoom!
That's not too unusual even on large cruise ships, especially if the dining room is in the aft part of the ship where the engines and propellers are found.
It never ceases to amaze me the cleanliness and pride of Japan, whether it s a ferry, Shinkansen, local train, plane, bus, taxi, always so clean. Inspirational.
The balcony direct view of the sea is awesome (with or without the table and chair), I could imagine myself sitting on the floor with a mat, slurping my morning coffee while enjoying the sunrise and then go back to sleep :P It's actually funny when you say that you'll edit it out but still keep the whole towel search as is and when you apologize to the bear after hurting it and put the bear to sleep in the fridge is just hilarious. :D
I sure hope you never change your style and presentation. Like others, I get a peaceful, relaxed feeling when watching your videos. And I get to learn about the places you visit. Good Job!! I love it!!
Thank you for sharing your wonderful experiences and adventures. Your videos are so interesting and enjoyable. No shouting or narration. Only simple straightforward explanation and natural ambient sounds. All the best to you from Charlotte NC USA 🇺🇸. 💛❤🌻❤💛
From amount of views of your videos I realized how many people around the world wants to feel free and relaxed and be alone maybe, and escape the crowds.
"Hello towels?" "Hello?" [looks in cupboard] Hello? [looks in fridge] I love how this channel is getting funnier XD On a serious note, I really enjoy your videos and find them very calming and enjoyable. Thank you for making them!
I love that you share your little mishaps and subtle jokes :D This video is almost 30 minutes long but it felt so short to watch! Thank you and looking forward to the next one :)
This is my favourite episode so far. The towels bit and the white bear bit had me lolling. I was a bit concerned with how shaky the ship was. Maybe it is because it is a older ship. Anyway, thanks for sharing. Cheers from Australia.👍
I'm watching from Australia as well. I actually think this cabin looks more comfortable than the more expensive ones, but that's probably because I prefer a 'retro' feel. I wouldn't mind giving up a few luxuries if it meant getting an older, more 'authentic' experience but that's just me.
Lol esp when he had breakfast and you could see the plates rattling like heck and that was a calm day he said ? Wonder if it's bc the boat was doing up to 30 knots too most do 15-20 max
These videos are very helpful to me when I want to find some sleep. Not because they are boring, they are just so much relaxing. I imagine being on the ferry myself and falling asleep in my comfortable cabin. There's nothing more calm and relaxed! Thank you for the uploads!
As always a great video. The room looked cozy. The fact the room had it's own bathroom made it worth the cost. The food looked delicious. You do cruises the way I would. Short breaks between eating around the ship.
I really enjoy our adventures with you. You are absotively awesome and appreciated and I hope you know how much enjoyment you pass on to us. HUGS and GOD bless us everyone
This is fantastic! I'm going to be studying abroad in Kyoto and wanted to take a ferry to Hokkaido on my off days, so this is a perfect video for me. Thank you!
"Then, I'm heading to Sapporo by train" OH! I want to head to Sapporo by train! Too bad it's nighttime or I'd hope you made a video of it. This was a fun video. Thanks!
@@peter_althoff I did realize that a channel called "I Will Always Travel For Food" is also TabiEats, because of both the channel mentioning Satoshi once and seeing Satoshi's beard and hearing him talk in one of the videos, I know how his voice sounds like.
Wow - a highway bus with privacy curtains - what a wonderful touch. And it appears that flow of goods is not disrupted in Japan with all the busy cargo movement. Plus a private balcony to catch the beautiful sunrise and attached bath/toilet. It is a lovely room with unique comforters. And the menus are so tempting. Thank you again for sharing this wonderful ferry ride with all of us on the worldwide youtube. Thumbs up as always!!!
Solo-san, other relaxing and interesting video. Your love for curry had me making some last night after watching some of your other videos. I regret nothing, lol. Thank you for sharing with us!
You eat more at one sitting than I have been eating in a day. Thank you for taking me along on your adventures. Taking ferries around Japan actually looks like a relaxing vacation.
The comforter cover looks like a fitted sheet or mattress cover, only put on upside down. Our comforters (we sometimes call them duvets, a French word I think) are completely covered by our protective covers. :) Hello from Ontario, Canada.
No matter how I try, I'm always wrestling with duvet covers! Burrito method or no, it always fights back. I was once found by a housemate with just my feet sticking out of the slot at the short end trying to get the upper corners to sit. It looked as if the duvet was trying to swallow me alive.
Your videos are everything: calming, interesting, satisfying with the food and funny with your humorous spin on things. Thank you for continuing to produce such great content!
Man, your videos always have great little jokes on them, but this one was extra funny! Looking for towels inside the fridge and the bear drink cracked me up. Also, no comforter covers here in Brazil.
Great video Solo, thank you very much. Appreciate you trying new foods so that we can experience them through your camera. Also, thanks for showing details of what is inside of each dish. Hope you try some of the world famous Sapporo beer in your next video? It's consumed all across Canada for many decades. Thank you for all the effort and time put in to sharing your experiences with us. Please stay safe. We are not over this virus yet.
You are getting funnier on every video buddy, very entertaining 😁 😄 Anyway, It seems that the ship vibrate heavily. Arigatogozaimashita for taking us 🙏
I love your sense of humor and how it shows in your videos. The Bear says "I can't see!" and "He is mean!" Adorable! Thank you for another great trip! 💖
Thank you for making those videos. They are very calm and relaxing. Your comments made me smile many times, especially the bear part haha. It really makes me want to travel alone somewhere quiet with few people :)
That Kirin chu-hai definitely sounds like my kind of thing. I love grapefruit Radlers and hard seltzers! Your ferry must have been doing some smooth sailing to sneak out of port without your even noticing!
I accidentally bought it back in 2005 out of vending machine thinking it was lemonade. I don’t even like grapefruit, but I really enjoyed it, I been drinking it ever since. Especially the Kirin brand. The peach flavor is ok too.
Living vicariously through your videos, tomodachi. I could totally do what you're doing. It would be living my best life. That's why watching your videos bring me so much delight & satisfaction. Given the current situation with we-know-what, through you, I'm sailing the sea (my childhood dream) in a country I learned to love (having worked there twice). Domo Arigato Gozaimashita.🧔
In illinois USA we dont have those kind of covers on our blankets but we do have duvets. Buckwheat pillows typically arent found in hotels in the USA either. Thank you for the video it was entertaining and relaxing, I truly enjoyed it.
That room was perfect, the sunrise was amazing and the food festooned with shrimp - I drooled all over my screen. You and I could join forces and and let some entrees have it. Lol
What a lovely cabin ! That doona cover looks more like what we use in Australia for a fitted sheet on our bed mattresses. Great to have your own balcony too.
@@Roadent1241 It's your top sheet. It's very practical and very fast to change. It also means that your duvet and top sheet aren't going to go in different directions as they often do when they're separate pieces. Much easier to change than a full duvet cover. I REEEEEALLY wish that style of sheet/cover was available easily outside of Japan and Korea.
@@lannifincoris6482 Spannbettllaken, well I don't know German, but it sort of makes sense, because the literal translation to English is "fitted sheet" ( according to google translate ) 😊
My daughters and I stumbled upon your videos by accident a few weeks ago. Now we are planning our fantasy trip to Japan, hopefully to become a reality in a year or so. Thank you so much for your sweet humor and lovely videos that are medicine for the weary soul. My new favorite! ❤️❤️❤️
Your videos have me looking up ferry routes in my part of the world (North Sea, Baltic Sea) and planning fantasy trips. Not going to happen in a while because of the money, but it's fun to get inspired. Please keep them coming, I love these travel videos ❤️
Thank you for taking us along with you on another journey! It seems that there are many ferries connecting almost all important cities in Japan. In 2015 my wife and I visited Otaru. A small town with a lot of history. Once famous for it's fishing industry, especially for processing herring. And famous for it's glass industry. At Otaru main railway station you can still see many old glass lanterns. We enjoyed our trip to Otaru very much, had a lot of excellent fish meals and Sushi, and, of course, too much yummy Hokkaido ice cream 😂 As a souvenir we bought very nice, hand-blown drinking glasses.
It's all very nice! I like the comforter covers -- easy to keep the comforter clean without wearing out the comforter with washing. Wish we'd had that when my kids were little
Maizuru is my hometown. This service was the very first one to Hokkaido through Japan Sea. At first it took two nights to Otaru. I was amazed at the bulk of ships in my childhood. 舞鶴市民です。近畿と北海道を結ぶ初めてのフェリーで、就航当時は２晩かけて向かったんですよね。場所も今と違って西港で。子供心にでかい船だなーと思ったものです。
I've never even seen a comforter cover like that before! Not back home in Zimbabwe or anywhere else! I love finding little things like that which are regional but you don't normally hear about!!
I always enjoy seeing new videos. It'd be really nice to see more of other methods of transportation displayed and possibly other hotel-type stays. Keep up the good work!
To answer your question: no, we do not have this kind of comforter covers in Germany… And thanks a lot for the video, I must admit I really love your clips 👍🏻😊
I love your videos! 🥰 they're soo calming. Also, am I the only one wondering how many ferries does Japan have?!😅😂 I'm not complaining, believe me I wish these videos just keep coming 😊
Since the country is in fact an archipelago ferries are quite important to Japan's logistics, more so than for tourism, so I guess there's a lot. Most of their profit comes from the cargo trucks they carry, with passenger accomodations being more of a side gig.
Since I have discovered your channel,I love your vids and the "style" of it and I like your kind of humour.😁👍👏 I hope there will be a lot more vids from you in the future. Greetings from 🇪🇦
Loving the retro feel of this ferry!..would like to try if i go Japan😬..can feel how fast the ferry is when i see the food dancing (: thanks for sharing👍👏👏👏 waiting for your next video😬
I love how he looked in the fridge for the towels and was talking to the bear on the bottle lol
I thought bear was a typo until he showed the actual bear lmao 🤣
@@wolffriendinus same with me 🤣
"Oh, the towels are in the crapper; who woulda thunk it!?"
I'll edit that out later... *Doesn't edit it out* XD

Yes! I love his chilled style and I'm enjoying travelling vicariously with him, whilst we still can't travel even outside of our city here in Melbourne, Australia.
Same
I'm also in the category you describe! These videos are incredibly therapeutic to me!
"i got a bear"
me: did he mean a beer?
me: sees the bottle
me: oh it IS a bear
literally the same reaction
same!
DItto
Me: White Bears are Polar Bears.
*also sees can
Me: Yup. Its a White Bear.
I was thinking the same thing, too! Lol!
I love the ambiance of these videos...no spoken narrative is great...and you rarely see anyone else
I'm not sure how much of it is clever camera angles, how much is timing, and how much is the virus, but it feels kind of eerie how empty the trains and ferries always seem to be.

I've never seen one like that either I thought it was just to protect the cover From hands touching it (germs etc?) Since the bed was already made
In the UK we call them duvets too!
For those who don’t know it is pronounced “Doo-vey” but not doo vee doo vey
@Sue Sue wrong.
Your videos are everything: calming, interesting, satisfying with the food and funny with your humorous spin on things. Thank you for continuing to produce such great content!
I want that kind of comforter cover. Genius design.
Great video! Love your humor! I was surprised the was only one small picture on the wall. No other wall decor in a nice sized room!
I got shaken by just watching the bits with the food....that ship has some serious vibrations going on :)
Love the video as always!
Man, your videos always have great little jokes on them, but this one was extra funny! Looking for towels inside the fridge and the bear drink cracked me up. Also, no comforter covers here in Brazil.
The bear jokes made me laugh. Funny commentary. Thank you for posting these videos.
This kind of comforter is new to me

Great to have your own balcony too.
I wonder why the quilt needs a 'mattress' cover that leaves out a chunk in the middle?
@@Roadent1241 I think for a start it makes it faster to change the cover.
Secondly, it uses less material to make one
@@Roadent1241 It's your top sheet. It's very practical and very fast to change. It also means that your duvet and top sheet aren't going to go in different directions as they often do when they're separate pieces. Much easier to change than a full duvet cover. I REEEEEALLY wish that style of sheet/cover was available easily outside of Japan and Korea.
In Germany we use covers like this also on a matress. We call it "Spannbettlaken" (Spann-Bett-Laken)
@@lannifincoris6482 Spannbettllaken, well I don't know German, but it sort of makes sense, because the literal translation to English is "fitted sheet" ( according to google translate ) 😊
My daughters and I stumbled upon your videos by accident a few weeks ago. Now we are planning our fantasy trip to Japan, hopefully to become a reality in a year or so. Thank you so much for your sweet humor and lovely videos that are medicine for the weary soul. My new favorite! ❤️❤️❤️
Enjoyed this one a lot. Thanks.
always enjoy seeing another video pop up. thank you again for a fun glimpse into your life
Your videos have me looking up ferry routes in my part of the world (North Sea, Baltic Sea) and planning fantasy trips. Not going to happen in a while because of the money, but it's fun to get inspired. Please keep them coming, I love these travel videos ❤️
I really enjoy your video's! They are so relaxing to watch. Makes me want to travel
Thank you for taking us along with you on another journey!
It seems that there are many ferries connecting almost all important cities in Japan.
In 2015 my wife and I visited Otaru. A small town with a lot of history. Once famous for it's fishing industry, especially for processing herring. And famous for it's glass industry. At Otaru main railway station you can still see many old glass lanterns.
We enjoyed our trip to Otaru very much, had a lot of excellent fish meals and Sushi, and, of course, too much yummy Hokkaido ice cream 😂
As a souvenir we bought very nice, hand-blown drinking glasses.
It's all very nice! I like the comforter covers -- easy to keep the comforter clean without wearing out the comforter with washing. Wish we'd had that when my kids were little
And I could never seem to get duvets to work. Would go to pull up the comforter and get only a handful of duvet. Nope.
Beautiful sunrise!
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for that sun rise view at 12:30, so beautiful.
i like the vibes of that ship
Maizuru is my hometown. This service was the very first one to Hokkaido through Japan Sea. At first it took two nights to Otaru. I was amazed at the bulk of ships in my childhood.
舞鶴市民です。近畿と北海道を結ぶ初めてのフェリーで、就航当時は２晩かけて向かったんですよね。場所も今と違って西港で。子供心にでかい船だなーと思ったものです。
I've never even seen a comforter cover like that before! Not back home in Zimbabwe or anywhere else! I love finding little things like that which are regional but you don't normally hear about!!
These videos are fantastic to watch. Much obliged to you for uploading them and taking the time to make them in the first place.
I always enjoy seeing new videos. It'd be really nice to see more of other methods of transportation displayed and possibly other hotel-type stays. Keep up the good work!
I love your videos so much. Don’t ever change. I love your sense of humor.
To answer your question: no, we do not have this kind of comforter covers in Germany… And thanks a lot for the video, I must admit I really love your clips 👍🏻😊
Try your fitted sheets for mattresses for a "genuine" japanese feeling 😂
@@peter_althoff 🤣
thanks for another great video to enjoy! always look forward to a new video from you, keep up the good work!
I love your videos! 🥰 they're soo calming.
Also, am I the only one wondering how many ferries does Japan have?!😅😂 I'm not complaining, believe me I wish these videos just keep coming 😊
Since the country is in fact an archipelago ferries are quite important to Japan's logistics, more so than for tourism, so I guess there's a lot. Most of their profit comes from the cargo trucks they carry, with passenger accomodations being more of a side gig.
@@ObsoleteVodka you was w
I chanced upon your videos 2 days ago and I enjoy watching them very much. Makes me reminisce my 1 month stay in Japan way back in 1985!
My favorite part of the day
So relaxing, love to be at sea. So comforting. Many thanks.
I did this trip when I was a teacher in Japan, both ways. Then, I went to Fukuoka by local trains because of the student fare ticket. It was fun! lol!
That’s a unique comforter for sure!! Love these videos so relaxing
I actually like those style of slip on covers for the comforters; easier to keep clean and fresh.
Since I have discovered your channel,I love your vids and the "style" of it and I like your kind of humour.😁👍👏
I hope there will be a lot more vids from you in the future.
Greetings from 🇪🇦
Loving the retro feel of this ferry!..would like to try if i go Japan😬..can feel how fast the ferry is when i see the food dancing (:
thanks for sharing👍👏👏👏
waiting for your next video😬
I forgot that this is a fast ferry. That would explain why the food was shaking so much. 😂
Totally love your videos, especially when you show and explain what you're eating.
Thanks for the video!
This is the first time I see a comforter cover! I didn't know they are a thing
I've never seen that type of comforter cover before. It looks like a nice way to keep things hygienic.
Hahaha, he misspelled beer to bear twice!
Ten seconds later......
It's a bear.
