    Thank you for capturing a sweet, old dream of my mine so beautifully! I had wanted to live in the Japanese countryside when I was little girl and strived to make this a reality. However as I got older my life just shifted in a direction that no longer accommodated that dream.
    If I am honest, I think I became too scared to leave my comforts and start again. But thank you for making my dream a reality through your beautiful filming, editing, commentary and humour. You are so inspiring, you’ve worked so hard to get where you are and deserve all the great things coming your way!
    Thank you for letting me live vicariously through you 😊

I really need to start my Japanese learning program I constantly push forward each day and instead just playing video games. I miss Japan. Such videos really reminds me and kinda make me sad that I was born and live my 41 years so far in the wrong country. Japan was always the country my heart belonged to. I guess it is time not to postpone my goal of learning Japanese properly over and over again 😅 Hope you enjoy and cherish your life in Japan. Cheers from Vienna~
