    Episode 878 | Filmed March 2023 | #Tokyo - Kuwazu, #Japan #train #cathotel #japanesecherryblossoms
    We traveled on the beautiful #SaphirOdoriko train from Tokyo to Kuwazu to see the famous Japanese cherry blossoms freshly bloomed! It was our favorite train of the trip, and totally worth seeing the gorgeous blooms in real life! Then we decided to sleep at a cat hotel, which turned out to be a hilarious experience and way less romantic than expected haha. Hope you enjoy our last episode of this Japan series :)

    ------------------
    Who are Kara and Nate?!
    Watch our documentary here: • 100th COUNTRY DOCUMENTARY
    Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married 2013 and were super “normal.” I was a teacher and Nate started a small printing business from the spare bedroom of our apartment.
    We discovered the world of “travel hacking” while planning our honeymoon & became addicted ;)
    So after 2 years of obsessively saving $35k and over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016 for a “one year” trip around the world.
    Our goal was to see as many places as possible before we ran out of money and went back home to “normal life.” We started this travel vlog to share our experiences with friends and family, but quickly fell in love with living on the road and found a new passion for capturing our travels through video. So we did everything we could to keep going.
    4 years later, we achieved our new goal of visiting 100 countries and all 7 continents. We had no plans to slow down, until 2020 forced us to ;) Which is when we bought a converted van to start exploring our own country for the first time.
    After ~2 years of van life, we are back to full time traveling! And now we are finding the best adventures the world has to offer :)
    We are incredibly grateful to be able to continue doing something we love every day. 😊🎥🌎 Thank you to everyone who has been a part of our journey!

    This was hilarious. I've had a few cats, and I have never had one that did not instantly learn to use a litter box. It is so strange this hotel has so many issues. edit: for everyone that is saying the cats are stressed, that really makes sense. It is unfortunate they do not create a more comfortable environment for them.

      ​@@SarahMitroff it's not the cat's fault, they're not odd. The problem is cats like routine and being constantly moved to other rooms and seeing new people they'd be a bit stressed. That's why they do weird things like poop on the bed when they're litter trained. I'm sure the hotel staff and guests are very kind but there's probably a reason they don't have more of these around the world.

    I'm concerned about those cats! Cats only poop/pee outside of their litter boxes when they are upset....and I'm not surprised. While cat cafes are great ideas, I don't think a cat hotel is. It's too stressful for the cats. But you and Kara were great with them!

      I think the owner’s heart is in the right place. I watched another video where the person spoke Japanese and the idea is that people get the experience of taking care of a cat before they commit to buying one and they seemed to take the cat’s welfare seriously. I think these two cats shouldn’t be available for overnight visits though.

      @laurenhill46 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Yes. You have to carry a small towel (like washcloth size) with you in Japan because many public restrooms don’t have paper towels. And the ones with hand dryers turned them all off to prevent Covid spread.

      @DoomGoober ปีที่แล้ว

      Japan Business Federation ordered businesses to disable hand dryers out of fear that it spread COVID. However, in April of 2021, the JBF revised their orders and asked business to re-enable the hand dryers. However, there has been ongoing debate in Japan (and elsewhere) if hand dryers spread disease (very few cases of COVID were tracked to hand dryers, so the fear is largely around other diseases.) The current research indicates that hand dryers do no increase bacterial spread but it seems that Japan got used to simply carrying around small hand towels, like they did with carrying around small garbage bags, and so everyone just expects the hand dryers to not always work and businesses have not re-enabled them.

      They do. The nice thing about japan is its kind of small. It starts costing a lot to do more advanced trains in usa and people already complaining about loss of natural habitats and people arguing over whos land is whos in usa and its a big place.. it costs a lot more to build an underground bullet train from miami to san antonio. You end up just driving or flying but the planes suck balls man they suck balls we have to admit this. Some jihadi allah akbar suiciding terrorists and some corrupt insiders in our government worked together to do international world financial terror attack robberies to initiate years of never ending wars for profit at tax payer expense invading many small nationd in middle east and ignoring all the big ones looking for osama bin laden who was born in arabia or something like that and their goal was to rob us and usurp the freedom so now we got TSA. Although the trains will be better than planes because there is no tsa of the roads or rails at least until some al qaeda show up with some corrupt government insiders to commit financial terrorism for profit. Then theyll surely attempt to solve the problem by making a tsa of trains, robbing us farther. Tickets with ever rising prices to pay for fancy machines to scan me. and then I wont ride the expensive underground train either so whats the point man? Crap starts becoming a life savings robbery lack of human rights just to ride the train or plane because some dumb al qaeda and shadow people in plain sight wanted the accounting wing of the pentagon to be vaporized as well as the total annialation of the world trade centers even with the people in them on 9/11 2001 in order to get a bunch of stuff financed at the expense of people that never got to vote as well as go to war for decades in the wrong palces as well as trillions of dollars missing etc. Trains are sletchy places sometimes lunatics wait until they know everyone is on the train and cant get off which is when they attack

    Living in the US and not traveling out of country yet, I feel like I forget about trains. At least until I watch y’all’s vids. 🤣 makes me excited to travel somewhere out of country because the trains looks so fun! Loved the Japan videos the past few weeks 😊

    I’m very grateful you’ve created a Daily Drop YT channel. I’ve been geeking out over your Miles & Points 101 since discovering your written guides. We have our first travel credit card (Sapphire Preferred) all thanks to you Nate! I always thought my husband was Cheap Charlie #1 until I watched a few of your early videos🤣. We both love traveling and saving - this is perfect! Thank you again💙

    I love you guys so much! I'm visiting my family in Wisconsin now, but I live in Japan with my husband and daughter.
    And I have to say 😂, as a foreigner living in Japan I got second hand embarrassed when you were swivelling the train seat 😂 that is only used for turning the seat around to be able to sit face to face with someone you are riding with if there is more than 2 people in your group. The poor woman sitting behind you 😂😂😂😂😂
    Anyway! You guys are funny as always and I can't wait to see your next adventures!!!!! Safe travels!!!

    Thank you for a very interesting, entertaining and high quality video as always. I have not seen very much of this beautiful and fascinating world and its diverse cultures and people in my life. But since I became aware of your great channel (circa 2020) I follow your travels every time with joy and curiosity. Thank you for the many hours of everyday escape that would be possible through you and that have distracted me and everyone else from the fears and worries of the last three years. I would also like to tell you that you are an absolutely great and exemplary couple who treat each other with consideration and respect every day, but also in a friendly manner. ❤

    Those seats in the train only turn because when the train goes the opposite direction, they turn all the seats so you face the direction of the train ride. You are not supposed to be turning around to the person behind you while the train ride is going on 😉😀

  • @LunarProductions

    This actually makes me sad
    :( it’s pretty uncommon for cats to use the restroom outside the litter box and is usually a sign something is wrong. Poor things

    • @grey2868
      @grey2868 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Same. I'm glad to hear there aren't more cat hotels around and hopefully they'll do the right thing and adopt these cats out so they can live a normal life

    • @roserichter7834
      @roserichter7834 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      I was thinking the same thing. I'm surprised there isn't more comments on this. I've had my cat 12 years and he has only peed on a bed once. I believe it was his way of telling me he was unhappy we had a bunch of guests stay the night in his space(he did it on the bed they slept on) cat's only do stuff like that if there's a behavioral issue (stress) or if something is wrong with their health.

    • @caitlynlandry822
      @caitlynlandry822 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Yeah…I don’t expect Kara and Nate to know this having not really been around cats much (or at least that’s the impression I’m under), but I’ve had cats most of my life and have been to cat cafes and have never experienced the poop in random places issue, cats are typically super clean. Bums me out to see them so stressed.

    • @lindamounts2193
      @lindamounts2193 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      @@caitlynlandry822 Agreed. That is not normal behavior. I hope they aren’t too stressed out. Different people every night is not what cats seek and I hope everyone is kind to them.

    • @Brisingrize
      @Brisingrize ปีที่แล้ว

      Yep very stressed kitties, I love going to cat cafe’s they at least have their own space. Cool concept, but not great in practice. Peeing is either stress or a urinary issue. Fact they pooped on the bed, dead giveaway stressed out and displaying this with behaviour.

  • @gydigigytha8367

      Yea, they were probably very stressed. I don't think the way this hotel operates (locking cats with strangers in a room) is very good for the cats... doesn't seem like the cats enjoy it

    Best laughs I've had all weekend! I've had cats all my life and the first rule is No Persians EVER (smashed in nose, long hair). They are the most fussy, independent and ornery felines of all. I think you guys got bamboozled somehow into getting those two brothers. LOL great video and great job!

    I know you guys won't actually get to read this, but I just want to tell you about my daughter. She is 12 years old and was diagnosed with autism when she was 3. Part of her condition is she is extremely sensitive to certain sounds and textures. Long story short, she LOVES you guys. I always turn on a TH-cam video while I'm driving because it calms her down. Guess who her main request is? Yep. Y'all. She will say, "Kara and Nate please" when we get it the car. So I just wanted to thank you for the content you create. We literally watched "From the beginning," all 800+ episodes. Again, thank you for making a little girl happy. ❤😊

    Omg this was one of my favorite videos you guys made. I’m a crazy cat lady. I have 4. FYI, I don’t clean their butts when they poop. But they should have warned you that the cats are the boss. So yes. When you asked Ramen if he thought that spot on the bed was his, absolutely he did. In fact he didn’t think that, he KNEW that.😂
