    watching this from Kyoto and i just have to say that your commentary on inevitable stress and remaining grateful/present throughout it all spoke directly to my soul (especially after getting stuck on the Shinkansen in the middle of a typhoon like oml how humbling 😭.)
    definitely needed to hear those words. nothing is ever perfect and sometimes navigating through life can feel a bit directionless but that’s the exciting part🪷🩷

I’d be so nervous someone would take it lol. Your angles & perspectives are definitely on point and getting better and better 👏🏻 I absolutely adored this video. Currently going through some healing due to a break up & I hope to book a solo travel when I’m ready. Here’s to enjoying our own company 🥂

    • @LynetteAdkins
      @LynetteAdkins  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I realized a few days after being here & talking to ppl that Japan is extremely safe & they take stealing/returning lost items very seriously, it’s like a completely different energy from the US. I even saw people sleep on the streets after a night out when the subways stop running bc they’re not worried about ppl stealing from them. So after being there a while I felt safe leaving my camera & even my bag down & walking away. I’m so glad you enjoyed the video! I’m sorry to hear about your breakup, sending you so much love on your journey of healing & eventually booking your travels!❤️

    Hi Lynette!!! I love your sense of fashion - I do have to say though (because you also mentioned something about it) that I would personally highly recommend to dress a bit modest during solo travel as a female! It's sad that we live in a world that this is a thing of course, but it is one of the important things that I have learned during my own personal solo travel experiences; the things we wear can unfortunatly give some people the wrong idea and could (not saying it will) provoke some very unwanted situations. Just saying I noticed a HUGE difference from when I wore what I was used to, to dress a bit more modest and cover up with linnen etc. It made my overal experience (as someone that also has anxiety) a lot more comfortable!!! (Because I got way less attention lol) Anywaysss love and I love your videos!!!!

    Haha this was a great video and reminded of all the fantastic panic attacks I had while I was there.
    I went for a few weeks a few years ago to visit a friend who had been living there. She spoke Japanese extremely well, and I thought I would be set, but I still managed so many insanely embarrassing hilarious fuck ups. Just one major fuckup after another one. Vomited on a bus after having a massive panic attack rolling down the ski slopes in Hokkaido (I was dumb enough to think skiing would be easy, and didn’t know how fearful of heights I was before getting on the ski lift. I also separated from my friend in Tokyo one night. I was drunk and lost, looking for my hotel at 3am in the morning. I was walking in and out of shops drunk and crying trying to find my way and I didn’t know a lick of Japanese haha I cried tears of join when I finally saw the giant golden peanut at the Asahi factory that was close to my hotel 😂
