You guys really should be a traveling partner at all times. You both are great and happy for each other. 😊
You’re so kind! 🥰✌🏻
Gunma is my hometown.
Thank you for coming🥰
まさか群馬に来てくれるなんて、、、
嬉しすぎます！！
Wowww! It’s so beautiful I love it 😍🫶🏻
この二人の笑顔には引き込まれる何かがありますね、本当に素敵です。長く旅してるようですが、体調管理には気を付けてくださいね。
Thanks for watching! 😍
That lava flow has a 60s Star Trek vibe about it. So weird and beautiful. Also - that toy museum is ticking my boxes. Your editing is really top notch on this one. Loving this!
haha omg you're right, it does have that feel to it! Thank you for the lovely words about the editing :) I'm really finding my flow lately!
Japan is top of my bucket list. Breathtaking.
You won’t regret visiting! I am obsessed with Japan 🥹
@@travelforphoebe gotta get you ok my podcast.
Gosh all these places look incredible. Ikaho looks like my kind of place…the old steps, the in and out shops and food spots….amazing!!! Also, the lack of ‘foreign’ tourists always makes me want to go there- haha. The Onsen vibes give me cosy pigeon out from the rain and I’m here for it… ❤
So glad you feel that vibe too!! It’s so nice to go somewhere and be the only ones like that. The locals were all so happy to have us and incredibly welcoming. I love that connection 🥰
Keep traveling together you guys looked so happy
So sweet of you! 🫶🏻
Konnichiwa! You’ve explored so much ways to just take it easy and relax off the beaten track. The water with that supping looked so super blue, it was unreal 😮. Thanks a lot for sharing this off-the-beaten-track episode. Have a wonderful weekend 🤙
Phoebe, you can't have a breakdown of your food:what you ate & price , & did you find it tasty (we are planning a trip-but need to workout exact budget)- those handmade noodles looked delucious
Love all the activities on these trips as well!
Glad you like them! :)
You guys look so happy!! Sending good vibes and thank you for sharing this video!! Ikaho looks so cool 🤩
Thank you so much! Loving Japan 😍
You looked so relaxed and happy! Great video as always ❤
Hahah very much so! 🥹😍
草津温泉からロマンチック街道に行くと１００もの温泉と美味しい食事や田舎の生活が見れて昭和村では見たことのないほどの太いアスパラガス😋や他の田舎では美味しい池魚やお酒などが楽しめて素晴らしいです。1週間以上はかかるけどね!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is amazing, all the places are so beautiful. Spectacular scenery, lots of great food and fun things to do. It is nice that the both of you enjoy your travels together. I enjoyed this video so much, must look at it again. Thanks for sharing.😊
Thank you so much! :)
Great Video/Vlog, beautiful scenery great food, and interesting things to do Japan is a must to visit. It is great you have a travel partner so you can both enjoy whatever you are doing. Thank You Phoebe really enjoyed watching.
Thank you soooo much 😍😍😍
Another great video, Phoebe! I'm not sure if it's just me but I feel like your editing is really ON at the moment. Thanks for putting in such a great effort with these.
Thank you sooooo much! 😍 I’m so glad you noticed! I’m really starting to find my flow with my filming and editing style 🥰
Another great video Phoebe ❤
Thank you!! 😊
Kon-nyaku is a kind of potato. Gunma is one of the famous places as their farms produce. Texture is totally different buy yet you can find them everywhere in hot soup bawl like oden in a different form. It cleans up your stomach with their fibers.
Thanks for watching :)
Great vlog Phoebe.I really enjoyed!😃
That makes me so happy to hear 🥹😍
ありがとう‥
今回も素晴らしかったです。
次回も楽しみにしてます‥❤
Thank you so much 🥹🥰✌🏻
Welcome to Gunma Prefecture! Konnyaku is a healthy food with no calories and lots of fiber.
Eating magma..... ROTFL!!!!!! You guys are awesome 🙂. Thanks again for sharing your wonderful life experiences, Phoebe.
😂😂😂 it cracked me up so much!
🤣🤣🤣@@travelforphoebe
Love Ikaho! Ikaho? All of the spots are cute and amazing!!
So glad you think so :)
旦那さんすごいイケメンで妙に納得。
Love seeing these less traveled areas!
I hear you! It's so good to go somewhere off the track :)
Hallo congratulation to both of you that you have to films out to us videos vlogs great and beautiful country as
Japan l think so you will have injoy of its one of famous country in the world may you have successfully the whole times a long your journey thanks.
Unfortunately, in many rankings, Gunma Prefecture is considered to be one of the "least popular places" in Japan. So I'm grateful that you chose the place where I live.
I absolutely love Gunma! I hope more people see this and visit because it’s really so special 🥰
That Onioshidashi lava flow park, _in autumn_ , is like a japanese style garden, but on steroids. Woah.
Great vlog, thanks guys.
It’s soooo beautiful 😍😍
@@travelforphoebe It definitely is. If you haven't been to Sakurajima, I think you'd probably like it as well. There was a massive eruption just over a century ago and you can walk over the lava flows around the shore, south of the ferry port (among other places). It's not the same beautiful dark andesite rock, and the vegetation is not as nice and diverse either (1 century to re-colonize instead of 2 1/2 from Asamayama's last large "angry vent"), but on the other hand the views of Kagoshima Bay are quite something (...and of course Sakurajima-san can "go" at any moment, which adds a little bit of excitement to things)
Thank you for your hard work. I am a tourist bus driver living in Gunma Prefecture.
I watched your videos and felt a strong connection. I would love to drive and introduce tourists to the famous spots and delicious food in Gunma Prefecture. I can speak English, so please feel free to reach out to me in the future.
Thank you so much!
Friend good evening advance Merry Christmas and Thaks for sharing this video GodBless yuo allways and yuor family ✌️❤️
Thank you! 🥰
Great video again!
Not sure if you’ve already mentioned it elsewhere, but what equipment are you using? I can’t imagine footage like this coming out of an iPhone, not even in Apple Log… what other cameras are you using to get this quality footage?
Enjoy the rest of your journey!
日本を満喫❤ ウェルカムジャパン😊ありがとう。
Thank you so much ♥️🫶🏻
Konbanwa Looking forward to the next one
Thank youuuu 😍😍😍
Those places look amazing!!
You had me at Banff 😂my favourite place on earth!!
Question if you don’t eat seafood is there still plenty of eating options?
It is a little trickier if you're vegan/vegetarian but not impossible! I'd just recommend having Google Translate so you can communicate it clearly and you may need to do more research when planning where to eat :) Yes, I adore Banff too!
Many years ago, when touring Japan, we spent time in Gunma prefecture in Kusatsu and Ikaho in summer. We attended a paddleboard yoga class conducted in the water. And yes, we also experienced the relaxing baths not self-conscience being nude. Harriet and I are planning another trip to Japan in late March 2024 to spend more time in the South. We can never get enough
of Japan. As always Phoebe, Great Video ! Great to see you having fun. Luv Ya❤ Hugs and Kisses ! from Harriet, Jim and Yuki Richmond, Va.
Oh wow!!! So amazing you’ve been there 😍😍 thank you soooo much ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
It's not bad it's... challenging 😂 my new way to describe odd foods 😂
hahahahaha
😊😊😊😊
What a great video . My brain was “he’s not eating a rock surely!!!”
😂😂😂 it was all I could do not to laugh while he was filming it!
The water quality of Kusatsu Onsen is very acidic. It has strong bactericidal properties and it is even said that "the best doctor in Kusatsu is a hot spring". It is also said that diseases other than love can be cured.
Wowww! 😍 it certainly made me feel amazing!
Hot Springs are the best. I went to the ones at Innot outside Ravenshoe in far north qld.
Thanks for watching :)
@@travelforphoebe always. It's my Monday night viewing.
Konnyaku on a stick is weird. More likely to find it in a nabe or an oden. The flavor probably isn’t offensive but it’s a texture thing, kind of a gelatinous firmish puri puri-ness that most westerners would find odd. I believe it’s outlawed in Australia because it poses a choking hazard to the young and elderly.
It was so weird!! I gotta say, I didn’t love the flavour so much but I’d be open to trying it again 🥰
You’re most happier person
Always! 🥰
君たちはどうしたらこんな内容の濃い動画を作れるの？
How can you guys make such a rich video?
Thanks for watching :)
セブンイレブンの氷のカップは店内で作るんですよ😊
Thanks for watching :)
Konnyaku is nice stomach filling food because it contain only water & fiber so it's zero calorie
That’s crazy!!!
You my gem,my fortune.shamim 👫🌟👏🎯✔🕊💙
