"Journey across Japan: the hidden ehime files." sounds like a cool novel or extra episode to some weird, niche TH-cam series that totally should happen lol
It's amazing that Emma got out of the glass blowing shop without buying one of those tiny figurines at 12:59. And, her vase turned out so good! Nice showcase of Ehime Prefecture.
As soon as she said 'gitensa' I thought 'Wait, why do I know that this word means bike?' Then I realised I learnt the word with Helen when Chris was teaching her words during Journey Across Japan. Don't know why that made my day :)
Enchant trying to figure out how to reword it right now 😅 any ideas? So far we’ve come up with “the best way to experience the Japanese countryside” haha ahhhh
I've been watching your videos for about three years now and I'm finally going to Japan myself! Thank you for your content, it's given me the push to book my own trip
When I saw Ehime in the title I was thinking, "I thought Sherry's in Tokyo, how could you go to Ehime w/o Sherry," then boom, not only Sherry but Paris as well. What a cool group for exploring a calm prefecture.
Ehime looks beautiful! So green and nice scenery 🙂🌄Thank you for showing us! Also I was glad to see a video from you now - I just finished writing my first short story in years, and was thinking of a way to celebrate - and what better way than watching a video from my favorite TH-camr! ☺️
That vase turned out beautiful! What a cool activity. I should go to the glass factory we have here. Not sure they let you blow glass like that, but I know they have some glass making classes.
Yes. People living in Shikoku are so nice. If you try Ohenro, a pilgrimage to Buddhist temples, you'll be able to feel more their kindness and make a hundred videos.
Some of these areas remind me of the Shimanami kaido cycle route I did last year. But that is basically around Ehime. Kinda wish I explored those islands more but deadlines had to be met. 😅
I always debate moving to the countryside or not! I love convenience of Tokyo and friends and so much about it, but the countryside here really is so special. Maybe as I get older I’ll drift out a little more haha
That helmet, hell yes we need them here. Probably wouldn't stop the maggies though >_>

eBikes are a suckers game.... because yep, those batteries die 😋. And now you have a bike that weighs a whole lot and you've got to pedal that weight around. Should have gone with the regular bike: lighter and still easier
I've been trying to find more information about Ku Island and why the population decreased so dramatically, but all in vain! Can you link to some history?
Love the video.....but please for the love of safety do your helmet chin strap up properly! 😱 The helmet will fly clear off your head at the first impact and then your skull will be unprotected when it hits the floor. The strap should be snug under your chin, not hanging loose like that. Honestly it was distracting me so much, I just wanted to reach through the TV screen and do it up for you! 😅 We like you (and your videos) and just wish you to be always safe and well. 🙏
These kinds of videos always make me wonder if they have the Fuji brand of bicycles over there. (I used to be a fairly serious cyclist, and those always just seemed to fit me best for what I could pay. ) Also, ooh, pheasant, I haven't had that in a long time... :)
Hi, If you don't mind, could you name some bike names so I can take a look and maybe buy one. I love biking and have 2 already, one is like antique and the other is small mountain bike, but I'm looking into buying a not too expensive electric bike (I'm a teacher so I can't afford much hihi...) Arigatogozaimasu ! Alex
Well, I don't know much about what's current these days, (I've been off the road a while cause of health conditions and the roads around here, ) And those electrics don't seem to have caught on in the US either, so, I suggest local expertise when you shop, or maybe go to a smaller specialized place where someone can sort of guide you in what to get. Generally you want, of course, a frame size that fits, and some good quality in the basic parts, things like bottom brackets and gearing bits and any shifting mechanisms, ...that saves a lot of headaches and junky feelings later. (Also fitting up your saddle is important, particularly heightwise. A lot of these vloggers end up with them set way too low and wonder why they get pretty beaten up or struggle on longer rides. :)
@@OllamhDrab wow, thanks for the quick response ! I know we don't have much of a good choice really when it comes to bikes in the U.S, and I've been to Japan 3 times and still wanna come back, so my next trip I wanna buy a bike haha... Because I'm not sure you know about something called Camino de Santiago, I want to do it, but I want to bike instead of walking like 800kms, I did the Inka Trail for 4 days 3 nights, and it was a nightmare walking all day long carrying stuff on my shoulders, so if I have a good electric bike to help with going up hills and stuff that would be nice for me, you know. Thanks for your suggestions and I really appreciate that !
@@alexquyenvo5196 Is cool, happened to be around. :) I honestly don't know much about electric bikes, but they may just not be suitable for long distance runs, ie, the weight and maybe lack of speed may not be worth it, unless I suppose it's rolling terrain where you can gain back electricity on downhills, ...the plug-in charge won't last too long if it's uphill all the way, and all,) and they tend to be designed for inner-city commuting, overall. I think there's still plenty of good stuff in America, just I'd noticed that the middle range/affordable road bikes kind of disappeared from the market, between changing styles and it seeming to be that anyone bothering to road bike is expected to want to be a bit spendy about it. (Another reason I like Fuji, though even their entry-level decent road bike was up to like five hundred bucks, last time I was shopping. ) I'd just avoid places like Wal-Mart and see what you like, tell them someone suggested good entry-level components, and don't rule out the used market as long as there's good service expertise around.
What do you do for work in Japan? I''ve always been fascinated with Japan and daydreamed about working on a fruit orchard in the Japanese countryside, maybe in Kyushu prefecture.
When you said ogre village, I secretly hoped for a village filled with real ogres. But then I also wanted you to stumble across Totoro in the mikan grove.
It was so much fun having you in my hometown!! Thank you for coming all the way from Tokyo😆
Thanks for helping and showing us around 😄 so happy I could finally see Ehime!
"Journey across Japan: the hidden ehime files." sounds like a cool novel or extra episode to some weird, niche TH-cam series that totally should happen lol
It's amazing that Emma got out of the glass blowing shop without buying one of those tiny figurines at 12:59. And, her vase turned out so good! Nice showcase of Ehime Prefecture.
It was so hard! I’m trying to cut back on buying things but it’s so hard when they’re so tiny and perfect 😭😭😭
I love it when you go on trips like this.
As soon as she said 'gitensa' I thought 'Wait, why do I know that this word means bike?' Then I realised I learnt the word with Helen when Chris was teaching her words during Journey Across Japan. Don't know why that made my day :)
Nice remembering that!
Learning a language is fun! Keep going
Basically, the same thing happened to me haha
Jitensha
"Biking by train" huh XD
the title made me read it twice lol
Enchant trying to figure out how to reword it right now 😅 any ideas? So far we’ve come up with “the best way to experience the Japanese countryside” haha ahhhh
Title already changed but biking by train makes me think of those railbiking things.
It actually is biking by train. Maybe you should have left the title as it was. I thought it was funny 😊
Your vlogs are always so peaceful, calming and you’re always so respectful and thankful to the places you go and people you meet!!
The glass blowing was amazing, your vase turned out so well
"Oh no it's a selfie" - Litterarly everyone when you start up the camera app xD
Glass blowing seems so cool.
I've been watching your videos for about three years now and I'm finally going to Japan myself! Thank you for your content, it's given me the push to book my own trip
I can't watch a Japan vlog with bikes in them without thinking there's going to be a drone shot and the Journey Across Japan intro playing in my head.
いつも楽しみに観ています。日本語字幕が付いてうれしい! これからの動画にもぜひお願いします!
日本語字幕を附けてくれたんですね。ありがとう。とても面白かったですよ。次回も期待しています。
Your videos always make my day better. Even though my day has just started. :D I know it's going to be a good day when you upload!
Ok but that vase looked super cute.
When I saw Ehime in the title I was thinking, "I thought Sherry's in Tokyo, how could you go to Ehime w/o Sherry," then boom, not only Sherry but Paris as well. What a cool group for exploring a calm prefecture.
Such a charming place! The food looked amazing, too. Loved the scene at the end by the river, so peaceful
This vid strikes the perfect balance...50% travel info/50% low key ASMR vibes
Aww such a fun trip!! Love the music you used! It's so relaxing 🥰
Another vid to relax to. Thanks Emma.
The vase looks great!
Absolutely loved this adventure video! Great work Emma! 💐
I think "Accomplished" is the word you were looking for. And you should feel accomplished :3
Very successful advertising. I now want to move here forever
Really enjoyed this one Emma! Xx
I absolutely love your choice of music in this!
エマさん、こんにちは！今回の旅レポ最高です！！特に日本語字幕が有り動画から読み取る印象が全然違います。ほとんど日本人のエマさん、字幕は手間ですがたまには字幕付きupもお願いします。
THIS AREA LOOKS AMAZING :D thanks for the video
Seriously Shikoku is so beautiful! I have another video coming and mannnn I really want to bring my family there, it’s so peaceful
New things for my bucket list! A cute train, charming countryside and e-bike to explore it all with. Sounds perfect :)
I think the most famous thing in Ehime is probably Sherry.
That energy at the start of the video. I felt that
Beautiful, peaceful and safe place with nice people.
I like it.
pretty vase
Ehime is so beautiful. I love your glass vase. You did a great job.
"oh no its a selfie", gave me a solid chuckle lmfaoo
I love your vase!! How cool that you made it
Ehime looks beautiful! So green and nice scenery 🙂🌄Thank you for showing us!
Also I was glad to see a video from you now - I just finished writing my first short story in years, and was thinking of a way to celebrate - and what better way than watching a video from my favorite TH-camr! ☺️
Congratulations on finishing the story! I hope you can spend a bit of time celebrating your hard work ✨
There were some beautiful views here 🥰
That vase turned out beautiful! What a cool activity. I should go to the glass factory we have here. Not sure they let you blow glass like that, but I know they have some glass making classes.
this needs more views i love this video!!!!
Yes. People living in Shikoku are so nice. If you try Ohenro, a pilgrimage to Buddhist temples, you'll be able to feel more their kindness and make a hundred videos.
Flying by bicycle across Japan in a car by train in the countryside on a bus!!!
Featuring secret underwater submarine excursion
I like biking! I hope we can travel to Japan in the future. Thank you for sharing your wonderful travels Emma
This was really cool.
Some of these areas remind me of the Shimanami kaido cycle route I did last year. But that is basically around Ehime. Kinda wish I explored those islands more but deadlines had to be met. 😅
It looks beautiful! :)
Thank you so much! ❤️
@@TokidokiTraveller thanks Emma! :) have a wonderful day :)
Oohhh, your vase turned out so pretty 😍
Thank you! I was so pleasantly surprised by how it turned out 😄 definitely got a lot of help with it though!
I love these videos so much! Where is your jumper/sweater from?
When you were at the Glass Factory, it reminded me of a scene from the anime series Sora No Woto.
The icecream dance is still one of the best outros on youtube.
please google "SHIMANAMI road" if you find this comment.
from japan👘
The title had me confused for abit
We have gotten to know your mother from her visits to Japan. How is she (and your family) doing as to the Fires in Australia?
Very cool!
3:40 - the location also reminds me of A Letter to Momo (2012). It's a really great anime
Omg I needed this video
I'm waiting for a lucky bag video from you emmmaaaaaaaa
♡
We just got an E-bike yesterday! From k-mart:)
I would love to live in the Japanese countryside. Reminds me of Texan countryside but more magical.
I always debate moving to the countryside or not! I love convenience of Tokyo and friends and so much about it, but the countryside here really is so special. Maybe as I get older I’ll drift out a little more haha
This makes me want to visit! :)
Woo, cycling! :D
3:37 looks like another movie, Letters to Momo.
See you in the next video!
Lovely video as usual. The only thing i would advice is to tighten the chin strap of your helmet next time
The Pikachu Train 😂
Is Emma's jumper a Ghost Stories anime reference? It's a sign.
Anywhere in Japan is beautiful! I hope they have bikes for my size tho :D
popo is a very cute way to say butt in brasil lol
@Tokidoki Traveller
What happened at Ehime that so many people left? You glazed over it but didn't say.
Whoop I’ve never been this early! It’s lovely to see ya again Emma :D
Thanks for coming by so early!!! ❤️
Tokidoki Traveller You’re welcome :) Thank you for uploading ❤️
Maybe I missed it, but why did all the people have to leave? And is that area known for catching seabream?
That helmet, hell yes we need them here. Probably wouldn't stop the maggies though >_>

Her and the other one both had loose helmet chin straps! It was totally distracting for me! I was yelling at the screen for her to tighten it up! XD

Hi,

Paris parks her bike on the train, leaves her helmet on for the trainride. XD

I'd love to know this as well 💕
why did the residents of Kushima have to leave?
When you said ogre village, I secretly hoped for a village filled with real ogres. But then I also wanted you to stumble across Totoro in the mikan grove.
I'm just gonna say this first... im second 😭
why does the demon have a bird?
Don't tell Chris Broad about this video!

3:08 Nazi shrine ?! (I know the symbol was used for other things before the nazis)
高知県の次は香川県？
Don't tell this to Chris Broad
Unfortunately, pheasants are conscious.
I really want an electric bike...
as a dutch person it's so weird to see that people need to wear helmets when they bike.
3:08 Anarchists will be triggered by the swastika. "HoW dARe AsIAns gLoriFY HitLEr!".
