🍿🍿Where we went: www.funliday.com/abroadinjapan/journals/72736 NOTIFICATION SQUAD: These sorts of travel videos don't seem to do as well as they used to on BRvid! If you enjoyed it PLEASE be sure to like the video - it honestly makes a difference. CONVERSELY feel free to also dislike the video now that Ryotaro is finally back.

This is one of your best travel videos to date! I knew only about Narai Juku since i've been there, but not the whole Nakasendo trail experience. Thank you very much for sharing💗

Do it now before vloggers ruin it

JKP Mês atrás

Yes!! If you have AllTrails, you can look up “69 Stations of the Nakasendo” to get an idea of the entire trail. Roughly 34,809 ft of elevation gain for 336.4 miles, so not as bad as you’d think. It’s definitely on my bucket list for when I’m in Japan long term… but for now, it’s just visiting family when I go back 😊

Simon Tide Mês atrás

@LaNoir It's Japan, not Australia. I think even the Japanese bears are polite. XD

Kyle Taulman Mês atrás

You know it was really nice of Chris to allow Sharla to come along on this trip with him and his boyfriend Ryotaro

Man it's good to see a travel video with Chris and Ryotaro again. It's been a while, honestly kind of nostalgic. I've missed seeing Ryotaro more often in these.

That's Risottoro to you! 😂

My Beats are trash so am I Mês atrás

The editing is improving day by day. The Bear and Ninja were really cool.

Alex Dye Mês atrás

This is by far my favorite area you have highlighted in Japan. Many people associate Japan with futuristic technology, but I love the history and nature. More please!

Lullaby Soda Mês atrás

absolutely agree!

NatsumeRyu Mês atrás

Likewise!

COLOURS of JAPAN Mês atrás

Japan has so many different faces - and all of them are beautiful in their own way.

Stu Mês atrás

I have actually never had the desire to visit Japan. But after watching so many of your videos showcasing both the good and the bad, I am in the budgeting and planning process of making the excursion to this land of unlimited beauty! And this coming from a Canadian!! Wonderful objectivity Chris. Thank you.

Ryori Mês atrás

@Scott Pattison I agree Chris and the crew are the foremost purveyors of Japan. Put out some guide books, AIJ Travel Guides.

Scott Pattison Mês atrás

Chris just might be the Rick Steve’s of Japan!

Please come to Japan, there is so much to discover

Ryori Mês atrás

@danguee1 Hi come back, gut without the dengue, deguee1.

Benjamin R Mês atrás

Japan is always a good travel choice. So glad I went

_SarcasMiss Mês atrás

Never stop making these content. It's inspiring a lot of us to visit Japan, and not the usual Tokyo-Kyoto-Osaka route.

COLOURS of JAPAN Mês atrás

Yes, we find it very refreshing to see lesser known places being portrayed in travel blogs! 🙂

Erika Mês atrás

I nearly choked on my sweet tea when Ryotaro said his wife loves his slurp! 🤣😭🙈 Jokes aside, this is such a beautiful video! I love it when you guys walk around different parts of Japan, enjoy the scenery and environment, and taste the local cuisine 😋 I can almost feel the atmosphere! Looking forward to more of your content, Chris ✌🏼✨

Joe Scarpelli III Mês atrás

I walked the Magome to Tsumago section of the Nakasendo in December, and it was very beautiful. Mountains, waterfalls, a very old tea house, and even little bells you can ring to scare off the bears! If I could do it, I'm sure an accomplished athlete like you would have no problem.

J MF 25 dias atrás

I went last fall! That same exact route. It truly is a beautiful walk.

LogicalVelocity Mês atrás

I love videos with Chris and Ryotaro. Feels like the old days. With Sharla, it's just a bonus!

Shannon W Mês atrás

What I love about your travel videos is getting to see the things that are off the beaten path and what you would never learn about in travel books. There is so much I want to see in Japan now that there’s not going to be enough time in just one trip.

COLOURS of JAPAN Mês atrás

It's true - Japan has very much to offer. We all live here and still get to discover new things all the time! 🙂

Mr.Unknown Mês atrás

The most impressive part of this video is how well colour matched the bear walking behind Chris and Ryotoro is. Bravo editor, bravo 👏

brianuuuSonic Mês atrás

I thought it was Sharla cosplaying it lmao

penguin9001 Mês atrás

I genuinely thought it was someone in a bear costume and was waiting for Chris and Ryotaro to do a bit or smth 💀😭

Marcus Lambright Mês atrás

The ninja was pretty sick too.

NitronNeutron Mês atrás

@Ritz Riis you havent listened to the podcast recently. He has mentioned that he has got an editor several times.

CarbonShift Mês atrás

Editor?? That wasn't an edit, it was Sharla in a Bear costume.

21palica Mês atrás

Finally visited Japan on a business trip. Stayed at Tokushima, but visited Osaka too! I must admit, I fell in love with the country, it's nature and it's people! Watching your videos helped me blend in, knowing their customs, what to expect and how to conduct myself when interacting with the locals. Thank you for that, Chris! If you want a great panoramic shot, go to Tokushima on a sunny day, and climb up the Mt. Bizan. The 360 view is breathtaking!

COLOURS of JAPAN Mês atrás

So glad you got the chance to visit Japan 🙂

Levi Lewis Mês atrás

Mate, the production value on your videos has been consistently top-tier for years, the actual content is always an impressive blend of informative and entertaining, and the way that you balance self-deprecating humour and light-hearted cynicism with grounded humility and sincerity makes your stuff easy to watch, not to mention your roster of awesome friends. You've accomplished a lot, especially in recent months, and somehow I feel like you are underrated among your peers, and although there is an endless stream of thousands of people yelling their thoughts at you, I feel compelled to say - good work bro.

malone hart Mês atrás

So glad Chris has focused back on BRvid. Glad he was able to focus on himself for a bit but BRvid needs Chris Broad!

Abroad in Japan Mês atrás

Thank you so much! This year we’re going full force on BRvid, especially now tourism is back on! Will put this towards the upcoming travel series we’re working on!🙏🍻

Brock Anderson Mês atrás

Congratulations, Chris and Sharla. You both make such great content and seem like genuinely good people. To many years of happiness and good fortune.

Evan D’Alesio Mês atrás

As someone who’s special interest is Japan, thank you Chris for posting these videos. Always such high quality and a familiar face I can watch when feeling down. Wishing you (and Sharla!) all the best in the future Abroad in Japan endeavors!!! Sending endless support from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania!🤍🍜🍡🇯🇵

JakobHaertel Mês atrás

Finally my favourite guest on this channel - Mr. Risottoro - is back! Loved the video, the jokes and the beautiful picures. These old Japanese towns have such a unique flair, 100% something I want to experience someday.

R.J. Gavadin Mês atrás

I honestly don't have the words to describe the beauty of towns like these. This is one of your best videos yet Chris. If they had internet I would move to a place like this in a heartbeat.

Edwin Salinas Mês atrás

I don't know how long you've been putting kanji and explanations for niche Japanese things that foreigners may not encounter outside of Japan. I've been studying Japanese for about a year independently, and this little bit of editing is greatly appreciated. Sidenote, when I finally get to Japan, this might be an entire week of my itinerary.

COLOURS of JAPAN Mês atrás

We really hope you will get to travel Japan 🙂

Shavneel Nand Mês atrás

It’s the whole set of people not just one that makes Abroad in Japan enjoyable. Really fun to see familiar and new faces and the quality of videos given.

Zach Nicholson Mês atrás

Oh snap I live like 30 minutes away from Narai-juku! Can confirm, Nagano's "shinshu" soba is the best I've had in Japan. The valley that holds the Nakasendo, Kiso valley, is probably one of my favorite hidden gems, so many villages and places to discover. Hope y'all get a chance to explore more of Nagano in the future!

COLOURS of JAPAN Mês atrás

What a great place to live!

More often the beaten path videos like this! I love this kind of content, and would be cool to see you visit a bunch of different maintainers of different crafts that a lot smaller towns in more rural areas pride themselves on.

Kye Smith Mês atrás

I love your content, it's so cool to get to see all the amazing things and locations in japan through expertly directed cinematography in the form of BRvid vlogs! P.s. Sharla is absolutely beautiful and I love that you two are together! ❤️

Hey Chris, your videos always help me escape my busy life. I’m always stuck between my schoolwork and my cop-op work and these breaks are a life saver. Thanks for your amazing content ❤

MrBepis Mês atrás

I've missed these kind of videos so much. Just you and a guest (especially Ryotaro) showing us different views of Japan you typically don't see. MORE RYOTARO

Let's pump the viewership numbers up. Love these videos. I almost cried every time I see the beautiful natural scenery. Thank you Chris for bring me the joy!

Of the countless videos I've watched on this channel this one in particular makes me want to book a trip to Japan immediately. If I ever do find myself fortunate enough to visit Japan, the Nakasendo Trail will absolutely be on my itinerary.

Since I will probably never be able to afford seeing Japan in person, your wonderful videos are always a joy. Those three towns were gorgeous!

That guy you never knew Mês atrás

I stayed in Magome during my first trip to Japan and it was truly magical. I didn't know much about the hiking trail there but after seeing this I have to go back sometime and experience it in full.

TheShadowChesireCat Mês atrás

I knew I recognised that street in Naraijuku! I used it as a gorgeous scene backdrop in a Pathfinder Society 1st edition scenario. Love that Chris gets to show me more of it. Ryotaro was definitely channeling my old fellows playing mahjong NPCs. Keep up the attempts on Chris's life, Ryotaro! :D I think you nearly got him with "She loves my slurp". ;)

Pianoslave1 Mês atrás

I'm already planning a trip to Tokyo, kyoto and osaka this fall but this makes me want to start planning for a second trip to visit these places!

Rey187 Mês atrás

Not sure if Chris and Ryotaro realised how much danger they were in. A ninja literally snuck past them and got attacked by another unknown assailant. Glad they're fine.

Tommy Lyczko Mês atrás

The production quality on these videos is INSANE! Thank you for all your hard work and keen attention to detail showing us life in Japan.

Sharla is such an adorable cutie, I love that you two are together and love when you make content together! ❤️

Dillon Mês atrás

I do wish this was a full hike. I love the last few hike videos and i look forward to seeing more if you continue to do them.

Matt Cameron Mês atrás

I definitely want to walk the Nakasendo one day. Seems like a great way to see the countryside and stop for food each day as you stop by the towns.

gardengal Mês atrás

I traveled in the late Spring-very early Summer, so caught the sakura 'season; that pleased me a lot, but I can see that Autumn has a lot of charm, too! Thanks for bringing us along : ))

Sam West Mês atrás

What makes these towns even nicer is that unlike every other town in Japan, there are very few visible power lines.

Rad Daks Mês atrás

Chris really just rotoscoped something walking behind him and Ryatoro... not once, but twice. That's dedication. I don’t even want to know how much time he spent on that visual gag.

Henrik Sahlin Mês atrás

Well he says they are there in the autumn, so probably about 4 months, just for the bear and ninja

skilladunge Mês atrás

I feel like Inigo Montoya.

burt bacarach Mês atrás

WAIT!You mean that wasn't a real bear and ninja??Now I feel cheated somehow....tho the bear looked freakin fantastic!

XSportSeeker Mês atrás

Fortunately, no real need for manual rotoscoping these days anymore... as a former editor myself, I know the pain. xD Pretty sure both Adobe and Final Cut already have automatic tools for rotoscoping relatively static scenes, but even DaVinci Resolve which was the one I was using more recently, the paid version has a magic wand you just paint over things and the rotoscoping is done automatically for you.

frog boi Mês atrás

Please never stop making travel videos like these they are awesome !

Frag-ile Mês atrás

I am planning an autumn trip to Japan and I'd love to know when this was filmed, as the way things look this is exactly when I'd like to try to go. Coming from the frozen north my autumn happens a lot earlier than it seems to in Japan.

Sel Li Mês atrás

This is a really nice video. The locations are beautiful and the mountains are nice. I also appreciated the history lesson in the middle. Do you mind if I say, though, that you guys seem a little tired in it? I hope you had a good time! Also, I was shocked by the CGI bear! Because, well, it's a CGI bear, but also because it wasn't a CGI plane crash. Edit: I like when you guys walk through villages like this, whether they're abandoned or not. :)

MmYummyBoba Mês atrás

This brings back so many memories! I did this trail the last time I was in Japan. This and Miyama are definitely my favorite spots in Japan (so far). If you ever get the chance to do this, I recommend using the luggage service that transport your bags from Magome to Tsumago. There is a 1.5 hour hike that you can take between the two towns that really spits you out in nature. There are even bear bells all along the trail! Definitely recommend! Can't wait to go back

Wasting My Time Mês atrás

When I imagine a trip to Japan, this is the mental image I get of tranquil exploration. The calmness and beauty is poetic. While I feel the major cities are what I would end up seeing, this experience is what I would long for.

alibutterfly82 Mês atrás

At first I was thinking a 3-person trip might be kind of awkward, but actually I can see how this was very beneficial to have a 3rd person to help with filming duties while the other two converse or show things off. STRATEGERY. Well done.

Q2, the pensative cockatiel Mês atrás

Like Messi did on his honeymoon with Antonella. He brought Suárez.

Daniel Whitfort Mês atrás

I'm just finishing up my trip in Japan and I went on the route from magome to tsumago and it was such a peaceful walk with a really friendly volunteer giving green tea halfway

Skytwist Mês atrás

That's the happiest I've seen you in any of your adventures, Chris. A solid breath of freedom I bet :)

argo12 Mês atrás

If I were more confident with the language, this is definitely the kind of Japanese vacation I would love. Out of the big cities, in the mountains, beautiful scenery, and authentic and historic towns. So awesome.

Sheryll Mês atrás

It's not that it doesn't do well -- these city walks are wonderful videos. I think people just knew you were on vacation and didn't know when you'd be back. Now that we all know you've returned from the UK, people will start watching again. Shinpai nai kudasai.

ya boi Mês atrás

How does your editing and camera work keep getting better every video!?

Jason Pike Mês atrás

From a Twitter account I found online who recounted John's trips to Japan he states, "John and Yoko would escape the summer heat and humidity by heading to Karuizawa, a resort northeast of the metropolis, and stay at the Mampei Hotel. The former Beatle was a frequent customer at Cafe de Minoriya and a fan of their vanilla soft-serve ice cream." So I guess this rumour has some credibility.

Sabrina Meyer Mês atrás

I love these kind of videos! And I think one can really see how much effort goes into making these. They let me dream of the time I can finally go and explore the country myself :) Thank you for the effort :)

Lisa Hoshowsky Mês atrás

Welp, one more reason to go to Japan. How dare you make me want to go there?! 😂 This was just so calming and gorgeous. I love mushrooms too so I’m here for all the food and gorgeous pictures. And I’m happy to see Ryotaro back😁😁

Isaac Plays Bass Mês atrás

More please! Awesome to see Sharla and Ryotoro in your videos too.

food fetish Mês atrás

Love these videos!! Never stop. I love seeing different areas I would otherwise not know to check out. So much cool architecture mixed with the nature. And the nice rooms you guys got felt so unique but also homely. Damn i wish i was in japan

Martin van den Broek Mês atrás

This brought back good memories ☺️. I made the walk from Tsumago to Magone in 2009. With lack of transportation options back to Tsumago we were offered a ride back to our minshuku in his mini-van by a local farmer.

Mu Mês atrás

How does Chris always show use things we've never seen before?!? For someone who's been all over Japan and shown us so much, it's surprising he can still find awesome places like Nakasendo! Can't wait for all the videos this year 🤩

yourguardianangel Mês atrás

I know the nakasendo but maybe that's because I've looked up hiking trails in a lot of parts of the world. it _is_ fairly well known, but I wouldn't say it's popular - especially outside of Japan (I mean, like a lot of countries, only certain things get popular like cities or and landmarks or specific landscapes)

Mango Shake Mês atrás

@Mookie Stewart it's half the size and way more dense so there'sso much to do and explore. I could drive for 2 hours in norcal and still be looking at cornfields.

Mookie Stewart Mês atrás

@Mango Shake ehhh its about the size of california, so its big but not massive

Ian Anderson Mês atrás

He probably nabbed it from his buddy Tokyo Lens who did this same route a few months ago.

Mu Mês atrás

@deioped True. It's just interesting how many unique things Chris can find, when comparing to all other Japan based content creators

Natural Flow Mês atrás

It's absolutely amazing to experience such a different perspective on life and the surrounding beauty. Almost feels like under all the things from day-to-day life, we forget to take a breath and absorb instead of being sucked into the craziness. Thank you for sharing this and I wish you all the best :)

DeeLynne1970 Mês atrás

Gorgeous video Chris! thank you for sharing another wonderful area of Japan with us❤

frances Mês atrás

I live in the mountains and love when it rains. Really makes natures colors pop. Especially the green. Love the video!

This is just beautiful, I hope one day I can travel there, it looks so relaxing

KyokoPandua Mês atrás

faffable room for the win. I love these travel videos & the cultural stuff you include is just wonderful. This place is just beautiful. keep up the great work!

Rosso Mês atrás

Sad that these travel videos don't do too well anymore, these are some of my favourite content on BRvid. Chris somehow makes Japan look even more beautiful than usual in these shots and it's so interesting to find out about these places. Top notch as per usual Chris!

Jacob Sweet Mês atrás

Not sure if anyone else agrees with this but my favorite part about this channel is that unlike a lot of other Vlog/travel channels Chris picks locations that you truly would not have every heard of. Obscure tourists stuff that still is accommodating. So I guess this trail will get added to the list now.

LonesomeDove Mês atrás

I don't understand why youtube doesn't promote these travel type vids as much as others. These are my favorite!

fatalshot009 Mês atrás

I live in Nagano Prefecture and I had no idea that this place existed. Thanks for filming this and giving me and many others more traveling ideas!

Boredom Alley Mês atrás

Japan is just a paradise😍

Nyx Mês atrás

Always good to see more exploration videos from you, Chris. I hope you enjoyed your romantic trip!

Alice C Mês atrás

What a coincidence! I'm currently doing the Nakasendo Trail on the Conqueror Challenges and I'm 10% done. I'm past the Pâtisserie Sadaharu Aoki. Cool!

Emma Mês atrás

That's so exciting! I hope you have the best of times

utterlybrilliant Mês atrás

821k viewers in 4 days?! Damn. I have been watching Chris' videos for almost 10 years and he has done some great videos in the past, but it's crazy the amount of views he is getting recently and for this video. I guess he got a bunch of new subscribers from all the collaborations in the last year. This is just a pretty basic Nakasendo video no different to any J-Vlogger that's done it, but I guess he has done very well to sell himself. He has put in the effort so I guess its starting to pay off.

FH_Mio Mês atrás

Your shots are always so beautiful, the production quality is truly on par with what I used to see on like tv reports or documentaries (but even better bc of the fun commentary 😊) This also straight up went to my japan travel recs haha I'd love to hike a part of that trail! It looks so calm and just remote enough for what I need in my life atm...

B J Mês atrás

Love this look at an amazing part of Japan. So beautiful!

Jethro Tan Mês atrás

Love the travel videos, very inspiring to get to know some of the less known beautiful places in Japan and totally visited some of the things you have done in past videos. Also went to Narai Juku with some friends last year in the same ryokan and it was amazing!

Porkchop1999 Mês atrás

Thank you for the awesome video~ I love to see videos like this exploring Japan, Thank you for bringing us all along for the trip, I hope it was an amazing experience Thank you for your hard work, Keep it up m(_ _)m (Also glad to see Ryotaro again for the first time in a while) I hope everyone is having a lovely day, Have a wonderful rest of your week, Be safe and Take care out there wherever you are (^=W=^)7

I could never get enough of these travel videos, a slice of the past in a modern context showcasing the beauty that is Japan.

The urge to travel every time I watch your videos gets so much stronger. Thanks for cool videos like this Chris!!!

Absolutely stunning, thank you for sharing! These are the kind of adventures I want to do whenever I visit Japan.

Thank you for showing the world a side of Japan people like to pretend doesn't exist. I love videos like these that show what the country side is like. Looking forward to more hiking/walking videos this year

Walt Lodes III Mês atrás

LOVED this video! Missed these kinds of videos, as you always put so much attention to the details around you, and it's fascinating for someone like me who can only hope & dream to go to Japan someday! So kudos to the return of these videos!! Also, you made autumn in Japan look stunning!! Great to see adventures with Ryotoro as well, and now Sharla! yay! Thanks again for this video, it really hit the spot!! Looking forward to hopefully more!!

Jessi McClue Mês atrás

Love your videos!! I can't wait until I get to explore Japan!

OBi Fox Mês atrás

I walked from a JR station to Tsumago and then to Magome (downhill direction) in one day a few years ago. The sunset from Magome is spectacular.

Simon Verhoeven Mês atrás

I really love these travel videos, especially where you visit old villages. So it's indeed a shame they seem to be doing not as well as they used to.

DarkWatts Mês atrás

I really like the more intimate videos like this one where you spend more time in an area vs going to 50 place. Also these places are beautiful

Danni Mês atrás

Nice to see Pete last time, and Sharla and Ryotoro this time 😊 Will Natsuki, Connor and Joey join you during the other videos in this series?

We walked from Magome to Tsumago a few years back. Unfortunately just a day trip from Nagoya but fantastic nonetheless. We were there in Winter but would love to go back during other seasons. The views along the way are spectacular and the villages are both amazingly beautiful and welcoming.

Another top tier video Chris! Loving these walking/fitness-related videos so so much. It always brightens my day to see a new upload from you, especially this close to each other! Also 10:20 was a missed opportunity to edit the word "LAFFABLE" on top of Ryotaro haha
