"I did buy a moss ball..." I laughed so much! That's what I would've definately done! So cute.
Found this channel because of Abroad in Japan and am staying because of the quality of the videos. Thank you for the content
That guy did a very good painting work
I went to Oirase Gorge a couple times when I lived in Misawa nearby. Every time there was at least one person with a painting set up like this along the trail.
Found you from sharla video. Subscribed, can't wait to see more northern japan wonders😁
Thank you and welcome! Winter is coming! Soon I'll hopefully be out in snowshoes or skis exploring the transformed landscape!
I find your voice really soothing for some reason haha
Love your travel vlogs with lots of interesting information 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you so much!! That may be the first time someone has said that!
Absolutely agree how beautiful this place in the world is, it feels like you are truly lost in nature ☺️
Your voice is so perfect for these videos! Calming yet excited. Love this content♡
Thank you!
I found you thru the Abroad in Japan channel. I really like your videos.
you deserve like a million subs man I hope you get there. Thanks for sharing all this. As someone who has been to Japan twice for vacation I feel like next time I'll need to do a more explorative/hiking type trip.
Wow! What a great spot!
I live not far from the Oirase Stream in Oirase, Misawa, Japan.
Wow, lucky you!
Damn... I would need two lives to really live the full beauty of Japan.😅
Such an amazing place, one could really loose a full day ernjoying all that.
Again I can’t help but feel grateful and thank you for showing us so many beautiful places🙂
Thanks so much for going back and watching all of these! Good for me to remember them as well.
@@GoNorthJapan Glad to be of service😅!
For myself I feel like I’m two years late for the party...
Good side is that I have a lot of videos to watch and enjoy😊
What is not beautiful here.......Speechless!!!!
It’s a nice place to visit!🙂
I love your energy. So positive and excited to share with us. You have yourself a new subscriber!
Thank you and welcome!
I visited this place 4 decades ago.
Taking Jr Hanawa line, getting off Towadaminami station, then a bus to the lake.
On the way back, walking along Oirase Stream , then took Towada kanko railway which is abondoned.
Thank you for my good memory.
Well being in a vedio in abroad in Japan really did you good ... I found you in abroad in Japan in a vedio staying in haunted house .... and I did enjoy your vedio and I have subscribe 😀😀✌️
This place really reminds me of the Hocking Hills region in Southern Ohio. Just different enough though, in that uniquely Japanese way.
I used to play in that river
It's a great river!
Absolutely gorgeous!
Found your channel via Sharla. Love the nature take on Japan! Wondering if you will feature any kayaking or canyoning? Seeing this creek got me thinking about my dream of travelling to Japan to include those activities. Of course will be perfectly delighted to follow you as you hike and forage your way through the countryside!
Thank you! I am rather really interested in trying out canyoning! (I used to paddle and portage a bit when I was living in the States, but that was a long time ago.. I'd love to try again.) Hopefully this coming summer! There are some great "waterfall climbing" and canyoning locations and some groups that do it. I'll see about joining them!
Well done! Can’t wait to see the video about the sake in Aomori.
Ok- I can plan another sake-focused trip to Aomori. Good idea!
WOW!
Did the moss ball survive? Thanks for the gorgeous video! It really does look like something straight out of a Ghibli film.
It survived for a little over 2 years, but alas has passed on...
@@GoNorthJapan 2 years is impressive still!
Such a beautiful landscape! And a great video too :)
Thank you!! I hope I improve a bit with each video!
If a Kappa were to live anywhere it would be here!
This walk I want to do!
いいね！👏👏👏
1:11 'if you stay nearby, it's easy to get up in the morning...' lol, no it isn't! But easier and perhaps worth it, yes :)
Definitely worth it!
Silly o'clock
What a beautiful landscape! Bet it looks lovely there now as well.
And wishing a life long and prosper to the moss ball tree! Is it meant to be planted outside at some point?
They are meant to remain in the moss balls, which means they are like bonsai and remain small. Of course you could free it and plant it somewhere if you wanted.
@@GoNorthJapan Oooh like bonsai, well that makes sense! A tree in the garden is special, but bonsai.. so many times my bonsai moved with me, since I was 10. ^^ Good luck and good health to your tree!
Another great video! Which month would you recommend visiting northern Japan ? Also, is your moss ball still alive?
Thanks! I'm working one editing the next. Hopefully will have it up within 24 hours.
Yes- my moss ball still lives as of this moment!
In terms of when to visit northern Japan.... depends on what you want to see and do. I could come up with arguments for any season, really. Just not in between times like right now... when the leaves have mostly fallen but it hasn't started snowing yet.
This looks amazing! And I want a moss ball too... Is yours still alive?
Yes! It still lives!! I'm not that hopeful for it surviving the winter, but at this point it's doing fine!
may i ask if you walked along the road or there is a trail to follow along?
There is a trail for almost the entire route.
do you already have video on when the mosquitoes are the most bothersome or how to avoid them or which bug repellent to use?
To be honest mosquitoes aren't really that bad up here in northern Japan most of the time, especially when you're moving. I don't even own mosquito repellent. Just once, in the Aomori Shirakami Sanchi National Park they were really bad and I ended up cutting my visit short and just running away, literally.
But I would say the same common sense I grew up with in Wisconsin applies here. Cover up, wear repellent (DEET stuff if you're worried) otherwise something natural perhaps.
@@GoNorthJapan cool, thank you
@@larryteslaspacexboringlawr739 I just heard from my entomologist friend. He said the following:
"Lemon eucalyptus oil. The stuff you can buy over the counter is properly produced for best effect. Cutter and REPEL brands are best. You can buy them on amazon. It's NOT Lemon AND Eucalyptus...it's Lemon eucalyptus."
@@GoNorthJapan ok i will check it out
I want to go this place? How you went to that place?
It's beautiful, I really recommend it! I just drove there. You could probably get there by bus too.
@@GoNorthJapan i will try if i have ime
