I could never imagine travelling alone in a foreign country. So proud of u for being the independent woman u are. You never fail to inspire me, Ash. More power to u! ❤
I solo travelled for the first time in 2023, went to Netherlands, Germany & France for a week, then went to South Korea for 2 weeks. Best experience ever.
This girl really went with her Sailor Moon tshirt for the trip 😂 love it! The shots was sooo good, I felt the Kyoto vibe, and the fact that you were vloging alone - very well done Ashley! And a meet with the longtime fan was so wholesome 🥹 She seems to be a great person ❤
i was shocked to see you engage in a conversation with the chef and then i remember omg ashley used to be a kpop idol of course she's great at languages!!! as someone who travels abroad alone a lot but relies solely on my english (and google image translate) i'm so impressed!!!!
I’ve done solo traveling in a few places and tbh I’m an i and I actually enjoyed so much solo traveling… I think it’s more difficult for someone who’s an extrovert as they need to share their experiences. Solo travel is definitely a self reflection and you can gain a lot of insights and empowerment from yourself.
23:03 You were never really alone Ashley I know Risé was there watching over you. Maybe laughing to herself that you would get the pickle and just throw it away. 😂 I just know she blessed you and protected you when you went on this trip. 💜
You always deserve a nice meal. Never hesitate to treat yourself if it doesn't put you in a bad spot. You know you deserve the best of the best and new experiences too
Idk why but it was so surprising watching u speak Japanese lol 😭 The editing was SO on point and loved watching u socialize and becoming friends with a fan🥺 Ps. theres a "friend" waiting for you in Mumbai, India 😉
17:03-17:07, 7:04-7:10 are such amazing shots. you have such a good eye because the scenery montages captured the vibe of kyoto well. thank you for sharing this with us and i look forward to more
I miss your vlogs so much! That Sailor Moon shirt with the skirt... perfection. What a great way to start off the weekend. I *love* the way you ask the sushi chef for permission to film him. You're just too adorable, Ashley. ^~^
This was great travel vlog! Thank you for sharing. It takes a lot of courage to travel alone. Your interactions with other people were so authentic and real. I’m also glad you were able to meet up with a friend at the end 😊
Watching Ashley’s vlog makes me more excited about travelling by myself in the future. I’ve always been scared of the smallest things like eating by myself in the past, so I’ve really tried to step outside my comfort zone these days.
Thank you so much for sharing the journey with us! I've wanted to travel to Japan for like 9 years now, but it's been so long since I took Japanese class that I've forgotten all the useful basics. Plus flying is so expensive. One of the nice things about solo travel is not having to worry about if your buddies are enjoying the same attractions/food/etc. Scheduling is simple and flexible if you're not meeting up with people. It's nice to just go breathe, take it all in, then talk about it when you get back. Hope you enjoyed the experience. ♡
That flower you smelled was probably star jasmine. I have it planted in our front yard and it smells wonderful. Also like you, when I traveled alone, I was dying to talk to people too but I did enjoy my alone time to recharge myself.
Just felt the need to say.. You are so adorable!! As an ISFP myself, this vlog was plenty help for a future visit 🤎 May you keep visiting beautiful places! :)
Your camera was nodding because it knew you were alone so it was being an active listener so you didn't feel alone😂 I did my first solo trip to Hong Kong this year and I LOVED it! I can't wait for my next solo trip and your next vlog!
man, people are really different. You get lonely after two days, while i have no problems being alone for a week. though i do agree, traveling alone feels less special without someone to share it with.
It has been a bit of rough, crazy day. It's 2pm and i am finally sitting down to lunch. I am glad i can finally resume watching something so comforting....
Thank you for the new vlog, Ash. I hope you had a great time in Kyoto, it looked like you did based on the pics. The intro to this video is amazing too. I will have to watch it in pieces, but i am looking forward to it 💜
Hi Ashley, Glad to see that you've done one of your resolutions.., I was in Japan this summer Kyoto is a peaceful city and yes the food and service are perfect . Before that I was in Korea and now I really understand why you love so much Jeju-do Waterfalls, Mount Hallasan, Jeju 5 days Market and of course real lovely peoples !!❤Korea. Take care of you and Thanks for sharing your voyage !!
you posted just as I'm applying to study abroad in Japan :) lovely vlog and I always love your honest sit down sessions! I'm happy you're getting so many opportunities to travel 💜
You know, Ash. No worries! You didn't even need to talk much. The footage itself was speaking to us. I think you were really brave trying to do this alone! Btw, I liked the way you combined Korean with Japanese. Cute moment! Thank you for sharing it with us! 😍
Thank you for taking us to kyoto with you. I personally enjoyed this vlog eventhough you're not talking that much. I love that i get to see the nature, people and everything in japan thru your lens
I’ve been waiting for your vlog.🥹 happy to finally see a new video. I love solo travel because I get to do whatever I want and meet new people, so this would have been heaven, but, I’m an ISFP. Can wait for my backpacking experience in Asia after completing my master’s. Ashley, what are must place to see, do? I’m probably going to Thailand, Indonesia, South Korea, Japan and China 🤭
Traveling alone again for Christmas just for fun! I haven't done so for 5 years! Super excited! Your Video gave me inspo and vibes for my upcoming trip ❤
Thank you for taking me to Kyoto with you❤(even i live in Japan, i have been to Kyoto only once as school trip 😂) Im so surprised that you speak Japanese so good! 月に変わってお仕置きよ♡ sounds perfect!!hehehe Wish i could travel through Japan with you!
I'm travelling alone to South Korea next week and I'm honestly excited and scared. I also don't like going to places with many tourists and am shy as hell to practice my Korean. This video is, in a way, comforting. Fingers crossed, it will be worth it.
such a lovely video. i applaud you for travelling alone, this is something on my bucket list as well. if you ever come to croatia, know you have a friend here too!
Hi Ashley! I'm so glad you came to Japan! I wanted to meet you because I'm living in Osaka😀so I'm jealous Arisa chan! lol I wanna meet you someday✨ Sorry my broken English~😂
haha as an ESFP as well, i really can relate with you, Ash!! especially the food part haha and i always need to share something with someone! travelling alone will be a challenge! but you really inspired me to go back to Kyoto alone, this city is my fave tho beside Osaka haha who knows..maybe one day! 😁
Thanks for sharing your visit to Kyoto ! I don't mind traveling alone . Very cool T-shirts !! Whoa ! - didn't know you spoke Japanese !! Makes things easier to get around .
6:40 omg My biggest culture shock moving to Japan, specifically Kyoto, was learning to walk on the left side. I sometimes run into people even now because other parts of Japan walk on the right side so Japanese people who are visiting Kyoto may also walk on the right side instead of the left, and it's even more confusing in tourist-heavy areas because the tourists are walking on the right and the locals on the left and I don't know which way is better hahaha
Your reaction to the size of the crowd is so funny 😄 If you think that’s crowded, have you been to Takeshita Street in Harajuku? Your Kyoto trek takes me back to when I was there. Your video title “alone in Kyoto” is also an official song from the Lost in Translation film.
Glad you had a good trip in Kyoto! The food looked so good! I've been to Japan on quite a few solo trips and also with family and friends but I'm a bit of the opposite and love travelling alone even though it's nice to have someone to share immediate experiences with and queuing for stuff is less boring. I think one or two other companions is good but not a bigger group. My bucket list is to visit as many prefectures as I can but Kansai is one of my top destinations so far! ❤
After much experience, I've concluded that for me a week is the outer limit for traveling solo. It helps to sign up for guided walking tours or group day trips or cooking classes or whatever so that you get some social interaction.
I just got back from my trip to Japan and Kyoto was one of my favorite places to visit. I was so happy when I saw your vlog from Kyoto 🥰 It was so nice to see the city from your point of view. Thank you for the vlog Ashley! 🫶🏻
I could never imagine travelling alone in a foreign country. So proud of u for being the independent woman u are. You never fail to inspire me, Ash. More power to u! ❤
Thank you for your sweet words 🥺🫶🏻🩷
It's normal for Japanese to travel alone in Japan regardless of sex
#Nothing to proud of😅
@@wonderman7788but Ashley is not Japanese so we can be proud of her if we want to 😊
@@wonderman7788 one, she's NOT Japanese and she's NOT from Japan :)

Hahaha i was SAVING this tee for this trip!! 😂
And she really is the sweetest 🫶🏻🫶🏻
i was shocked to see you engage in a conversation with the chef and then i remember omg ashley used to be a kpop idol of course she's great at languages!!! as someone who travels abroad alone a lot but relies solely on my english (and google image translate) i'm so impressed!!!!
I also totally forgot that Cube made everyone learn Japanese. Most of the CLC and BTOB members can hold full convos in Japanese.
@@medioreblatherskite i didn't know, that's so impressive!
Traveling alone is the best. Once you get used to it, you love it because no one controls your fate, where you go, what you do besides you.
I’ve done solo traveling in a few places and tbh I’m an i and I actually enjoyed so much solo traveling… I think it’s more difficult for someone who’s an extrovert as they need to share their experiences.

Thank you!! And ONE DAY🤞🏻🩷
the endless talking after finally having someone to talk to when traveling alone is sooo relatable 😅 the most talkative ver of me comes out
The way that your fan becoming your friend is so cool.. like imagine you being friend with your idol 🥲
What a beautiful trip that you will remember forever Ashley! I'm glad you took us along. I'd love to visit some parts of Japan someday too ❤

와 ~~ it’s so admirable seeing how you have the courage to communicate in japanese with the locals ❤️ you’re so effortless at it!
the bgm choice, outfits, vibe, and places u visited ❤️🔥
aw it's so nice that you got to meet up with a fan 🥺 she's so pretty

I did that last week and it was another reminder that I love traveling alone. Thanks for sharing your video.
Kyoto was one of my favorite vacation spots I've ever been to. So calming walking up mount inari
IMAGINE HAVING A CUTE DATE WITH YOUR FAV IDOL LIKE OMGGGG that girl is so lucky
Love to see you back Ash!💗 omg the chef was so sweet i can tell from his voice hahah, 😅❤
It has been a bit of rough, crazy day. It's 2pm and i am finally sitting down to lunch. I am glad i can finally resume watching something so comforting....

as an extrovert, I can relate to this. 😭 going out and eating alone outside is so uncomfortable for me. 😔 thanks for taking us on this journey, ash!
lol the pep talk to go out again was v relatable
4:11 if that's not the banner for the next season of radio clock i'm protesting.
Wow, you speak so many languages!
Love the sound and footage editing in this vlog. Thanks for uploading.
you posted just as I'm applying to study abroad in Japan :) lovely vlog and I always love your honest sit down sessions! I'm happy you're getting so many opportunities to travel 💜

Hi Ashley! I'm your Japanese fan!! Welcome to Japan!!! I hope you'll come to Japan again!!!
i was just in Kyoto in May this year, and watching this travel-log brought back the FEELS!!!!!! I hope u had the best time Ashley!
Thank you for lifting the mood before the university weekdays❤
I just got back from my trip to Japan and Kyoto was one of my favorite places to visit. I was so happy when I saw your vlog from Kyoto 🥰 It was so nice to see the city from your point of view. Thank you for the vlog Ashley! 🫶🏻
