I hope you love today's video!! SO MANY FUN FACTS to learn before you come to Japan… or if you live here, lot's of stuff to impress your friends and family!😘
Yes, we need a part 2. Definitely bring back Kombini hauls. Maybe sow us what your son likes on Kombini hauls
You: "If you want me to bring back Konbi...."
Me: Yes!
Yes please bring back more konbini!! I can’t get enough of those videos
So interesting! I lived in Japan for a year and didn’t know many of these facts. We need a part 2!
They also have AMAZING pet cremation services that come to your door in a van, and cremate near your house in the van. You can do a simple service or the bone picking service. You choose the style of the covering of the urn too. I recently cremated my axolotl here, and they were so nice about it. I was even able to put flowers and a letter in with him. 🥺 It only cost I think 11,000 yen.
WAIT!!! you mean to tell me this whole time when Mario was using his Tanuki costume to fly around he was actually using his TESTICLES?! 🤯🤯😂😂
HAHAHAHAHAH I don’t think so in the game but in other animations and even folkloric art - yes 10000%
❤❤❤ I would love a part 2!! Love fun facts!!!
Caitlin will you be sharing which house you guys chose from your house hunting video? I’ve been waiting for that this whole time since watching that video 😂 I had to go back through all your videos thinking maybe I had missed it! Obviously it’s your decision to share that incase you’ve changed your mind and would rather that remain private but figured I’d ask! 🤍
I had switched over to look for theater tickets but your video was still playing. I heard the "used panties" vending machine and had to come back for a 2nd listen. I thought, no. I didn't hear that correctly.... did I? LOL
Yesss part 2 please!! And I would love for you to bring back the conbini series. Everything Japan really 🥰
I could do like 85 parts of this type of video. I love fun facts. ❤😊
LITERALLY, SAME

Also, Konbi videos! Love and miss them!!
Yes please to part 2
Yes part 2 please!
Yes please bring back the konbini hauls!!!
Fun facts. Part 2 please :)
walking epidurals are in the US too! I think that's the new recommendation. I gave birth last year, and they did NOT want me to be fully numb. I could still feel my legs and feet! But only during business hours is crazy lol
I actually love the idea of a walking epidural, especially if you have the option on how much help you need. But yeah… during business hours is CRAZY
Part 2 please. Just found your page, having fun going through it! ❤
Coming soon!!
Would love a part 2! Also more grocery shopping vids and maybe a vid of your thoughts on manga/anime (if you enjoy either of those). I must say though, your content is a pleasure to watch regardless of the topic 😊
Loved this so much! More please love hearing about cultural differences and unique little quirks about countries. Fun facts are so FUN 😊
Do I even have to ask? Of course, we need a second part!!
Part 2 please! 😊
Absolutely bring back the Konbini hauls!!!
Yesss! Part two, and bring back the kombini hauls plz!❤️ I Love your content
The video I didn't know I needed! Aaaahhh how I wish I could afford the group tour, I'm sure it will be a blast
That was a great video, as always! Very interesting informations.
Please make a part 2.
Love from Corfu Greece😊
Loved this video, definitely need a part two! Also need a Kombini haul asap. 😊
Konnichiwa from Nara :) currently in Japan travelling around for 6wks watching you vid, makes a lot of sense lol
As a fellow lover of fun facts, I think this has been my favorite video! Please add many more. And yes please to Konbini videos😊
Thank you very much for your posting!
The season of cherry blossoms in full bloom come, so please enjoy Hanami （花見🌸）!

Yes we definitely want a part two please!!!!
This video drop was such a treat! I'm looking for inspo for my upcoming trip at the end of the year and oh surprise, new video! Definitely would love a part 2!!!
I've been to Japan five times and have been trying to learn Japanese on and off since 2012. I go to a Cafe in Edinburgh most weeks and try and do conversation with at least 2/3 native speakers and others. I find it difficult to remember all the history and dates of festivals etc. The reason I first went to Japan was to go to a medical conference in Kyoto in 2012 and was lucky enough to see the Jidai Matsuri parade then. I know the Kansai region reasonably well now. There is another conference coming up in Nagoya in mid September so I'll have to plan what to in Japan in the two weeks leading up to it. I admire people who go and live in Japan. I think I'd be far too nervous to try that.
We definitely NEED a part 2 🎉🎉
please bring back the konbini hauls!!
What a great video! I can't wait to learn more when I see you in October!

Part 2 pleases!!!!
I'm half Japanese and grew up in Tokyo, Japan and my Grandfather passed away in Japan about some-8 years ago? We actually took his body home from the hospital and kept his body there for a minimum of 24 hours before cremation/embalming! I think you may have misread that fact somewhere (or my family was up to some shenanigans...)! It was an interesting process of death, somewhat weird to have a dead body in your house, but I found it very fascinating that it wasn't treated as creepy or horrific- if that makes any sense. We had extended family visit and pay their respects and a whole bunch of other stuff I can't quite remember.
Anyway, just wanted to also say I love your videos so much and you're the only TH-camr who I have notifications turned on for... lol!
I moved to the U.S. 7 years ago and your videos make me miss my home country and family very much- in a good way:) thank you for posting them
Oh, also! I have always loved any of your shopping/haul videos. I think they are the most nostalgic for me, so I might be biased :D.
And the vending machine thing is so true. I would walk my dog nightly and we'd run into dozens of them per mile just in the SUBURBAN areas. I've heard some of them are owned and stocked by the closest house to it? I am not sure if that's always true, though.
My Mom owns a GIANT tanuki that she keeps right outside her front door. It's about 4/4.5 feet tall? and has massive testes. It's hilarious and adorable to me, but a lot of my American friends think it's weird and perverted! Cultural differences, lol!
YES I misspoke - it's a minimum of 24 hours** Someone else helped catch that, thank you! Thank you for sharing your experience with your grandfather. With my dad they kept him at the hospital until the funeral home came to pick him up. Death is a weird experience any way you experience it to me… I have trauma from ours. Yours seems so much more peaceful. Did you attend the cremation ceremony. One of my friends told me about her experience and it was VERY DIFFERENT from ours in the states!!
@@heratlas Yes, I did attend! I had a strange childhood and only attended school for 2 years in Japan and so I spoke very little Japanese but could understand a bit more. Because of this, my experience with the ceremony was a bit confusing and disorienting, lol! I just kind of followed along with the rest of my family.
I remember a part of the process was to cover him with some ceremonial rags, and I think we covered his feet, hands, and hip area? I believe he also had ceremonial garb on his lower body. The cremation process took a while, and when it was over we took a very long pair of (ceremonial?) chopsticks to pick up the large pieces of bone that were not turned to ash in the process and placed it into an ornate box. I believe they put the ashes into a separate urn, though I am not entirely sure!
We stayed in a very old, traditional, and frankly, terrifyingly haunted, building/temple during the funeral process. We were there for at least two days! They actually served shark fin soup- I was told it was tradition for funerals but I could not make myself try it. :S
I am so sorry about your fathers passing, I hope at the very least it gets easier with time. I was not very close with my Grandfather- he had a complicated relationship with his children (my Mother being one of them) so I did not know how to feel about him. It made his passing easier for me, but regardless, it was painful to see someone, let alone a relative, pass away. I wish you the best in healing
True about citizenship. We had two girls born in Japan and no dual citizenship.
totally! always confuses me when people think my son was granted citizenship
@heratlas I have a question. Your Son was born in Japan but had to get a US citizenship. Does that mean in the future he would need to apply for a visa if he wants to live in Japan or since he was born in Japan, he's given a permanent residency card?
If everyone is cremated but the yukata left over right rule applies because the other way around is for people who are to be buried, then are some people buried? Or is it for people who have died and are about to be cremated?
Very fun video but gosh was the editing a tad manic 😂
Were you able to get an epidural?
More food vlogs
I was in Taiwan and family mart & 7-11 was so clutch!!!
The word you’re looking for was “mis-en-scene” 😂 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸
great vid, your mic is clipping though can hear static with headphones on
Sorry about that!! I got a new one and still learning the audio! Thank you for the feedback so I can fix it!
You're mistaken. By Japanese law, you can NOT cremate or bury within 24 hours after death.
墓地、埋葬等に関する法律（昭和２３年５月３１日法律第４８号）
第３条 埋葬又は火葬は、他の法令に別段の定があるものを除く外、死亡又は死産後２４時間を経過した後でなければ、これを行つてはならない。但し、妊娠七箇月に満たない死産のときは、この限りでない。
WAIT YES THIS IS RIGHT! Thank you for catching that!! 24 hours must PASS****
"Cheerleader Mom energy"??? How much caffeine DID you have before doing this video?
Ahahah I did have an energy drink before filming
A lot of info in a quick rapid pace…😎
Do you mind if you stop TOKYO TREAT?
