One thing l love about your videos is that you are always so calm, so relaxed. Never in a rush and always take you time to talk about each place and food item. Thank you for the great work!
Hi from Florida in the USA! Me and my girl love watching you two!! Thank you for taking us through such a beautiful place. I hope to visit here someday! I love your videos!!! Please keep it up and enjoy all the good foods and sites for me! You both are the sweetest!!
I have been enjoying your walks and when Satoshi mentioned the cake recipe was from Meiji Era. I thought oh..pound cake recipes used to be known for having 1 lb sugar, flour and eggs each. And then you said it tasted like pound cake! How cute!
I love ice cream during wintertime. Even more than in summer. Unfortunately, most of the Italian gelaterias are closed during winter here in Germany. We usually don't have soft serve here because it is usually low quality rubbish. I would love to try Japanese soft serve - it must be very good considering the price...
We managed to visit Hakodate mid November 2019; just before the pandemic. The history of this city was what attracted me. Apparently the first concrete street light pole (in Japan) is just around the corner which we did find; overjoyed!
Oh, I treasure these off-the-beaten path videos in which you take us to interesting, charming areas that tourists would seldom see. Thank you so much for making them. The architecture in Motomachi is beautiful and varied. One can definitely see the Western/European influence. So many churches. So much color. I absolutely loved the thoughtful bottles of sand which were provided to be sprinkled on the snow for personal safely. Only in Japan! And, yes, it has snowed in San Francisco, but very infrequently. I was there in 1976 when it snowed, which may have been the last time there was any accumulation. Much love and many hugs to you both. ❤️❤️
I miss Hakodate so much. The building at @18:00 was where I used to teach English on the side. Thanks for sharing Shinnichi! You got my nostalgia running wild. :) Hope you guys enjoyed the town. When I lived there I was disappointed that I was in a small port town while my other friends were in newer cities like Tokyo or Osaka but the older architecture and small town feel of Hakodate grew on me. It's romantic in a way.
Hokadate : simply gorgeous little town . You can see the European influences from the churches ⛪ to the residential homes. Loved the little shops, Café and restaurants as you walked further up the hill so convenient. This was a joy to watch those cake stores were to die for . Thanks so much for the most scenic walk . 💚🐢
I absolutely adore this style of video makes me feel like I’m traveling with you guys. I’m a very lonely person XD LOL this is making me feel better :-)
Shinichi, I am so happy that you love architecture, so do I! You stop and take a good long look at the most beautiful and interesting buildings so we can really see them. It's as if we are there with you. Thank you so much! (Now, get a cap to keep your head warm :) And you two are never boring!)
I personally would like to see more of historical Japan as so many of the buildings I can see going downtown, but I like watching the boys travel and test videos.
I just loved that little antique store tucked away, so cute!! It sure looked cold, but what a pretty walk. The churches were lovely, and the modern looking one was amazing. Would love to see the Russian Orthodox church after they renovate it. I hope you tucked a few pieces of that cake in your pocket, lol.
What a gorgeous area with lovely architecture,winter soft serve best with hot fudge sauce I think. I love unusual buildings&churches&orthodox churches with painted murals can be stunning I believe all of California was Mexican territory with no snow but thankfully mild winter. Stay warm with hot drink&beanie,
We are enjoying your vlog on Hakodate. It is nostalgic. The last time in Hakodate,, one of the baristas at Starbuck’s invited me to return around Christmas to see the big lit Christmas tree: She said it is beautiful and the city lit nicely. Unfortunately, the pandemic has made it impossible: BTW,, you are right that it doesn’t snow here in San Francisco.
Happy 2022 to you, Shinichi and Satoshi. Just an interesting side note, at 6:23, that Curry Of Death sticker at the Curry shop window, that is a version of the 'Pizza Of Death' Records logo which is a record label run by popular Japanese Punk band 'Hi-Standard' out of Tokyo. I would love one of those stickers!!! I was hoping to visit Hokkaido for my 40th birthday this July, but unfortunately I don't think that is going to happen now 😥 Thank you for the video.
What a beautiful place, thank you so much to the two of you for showing this so well. I honestly didn’t want to end but I fear you may have gotten frost bite had you not finished when you did. Best wishes to you both 😊
Thanks for sharing the history of Hakodate. I really enjoy watching footage of your Hokodate trip with Satoshi san, I was so impressed there are lots of historic buildings there. The steep slopes reminded me of San Francisco where I used to live a long time ago.
Hi guys how you doing the snow is beautiful love these walk and you sharing the history of the building and sharing the different kind of foods thanks for sharing this with us stay warm and be safe ❤️👍😘😘
Cannot agree more with you Shinichi … I fell in love with Motomachi too! And Hachiman-Zaka Slope! The buildings in white winter looks unreal! Thank you for this episode in allowing me a virtual revisit! ❤️
Oh what caught my interest the most was the aesthetic vintage packaging of desserts in Gotoken! I'd definitely keep those boxes as souvenirs 😍 and it really felt like you were in a European country. Would love to go there one day 💞
i really love watching your vids and they serve as a welcome journey for many of us who miss japan so much, and look forward to visiting again. thank you so much for these. you bring a refreshing balance to your videos of japan - the excitement and curiosity of a non-local and the facility of being japanese who can explain the things you see or cover. it's the same feeling i have when i visit japanese cities where i just love to walk and explore every nook and cranny. kudos and more power.
Wow! Such an interesting and beautiful place ,loved watching this video.The town is very quaint and historic I think.This place reminds me of a few areas where I live in Rhode Island in the US ,especially our capital city "Providence" there are many old buildings with very ornate looking windows and architecture .😍👍🏻
I am curious. Why did you not go into the the Hakodate Ward Public Hall? It would have been interesting to see the inside and you could have warmed up.
Is seem that in Asia, when you want to give a dessert a compliment, you say it's "not too sweet". 😊 I keep hearing it in video's, not only yours.
Not really. There are some Asian cultures with really sweet desserts!
One thing l love about your videos is that you are always so calm, so relaxed. Never in a rush and always take you time to talk about each place and food item. Thank you for the great work!

The city architecture includes some of my favorite styles - Art Nouveau and Art Deco and Arts & Crafts. This was a delightful walk.

I guess I can't get up this early all the time but I will try to be here once in awhile. ,,,
Looking forward to seeing you.

Architecture is fantastic isn’t it? I love to study the architecture in different countries and see the influences xx
I personally would like to see more of historical Japan as so many of the buildings I can see going downtown, but I like watching the boys travel and test videos.
This vlog is so calming - love your soothing voices Shinichi and Satoshi ;) u should do ASMR ☺️

You look so cold Shinichi and Satoshi! I'm watching you from snowy Canada, thinking "put a scarf on! Where's your hat?". It's a beautiful city.
Cool video guys, love the building so vintage and awesome 👍

Ah brings back memories, I’ve wonder through here back in 2014 and 2016
Such a wonderfully retro town, i love it!!😃
Hakodate is so beautiful. I love all those old buildings. I wonder if you cam go in and see inside. It must beautiful too.

What a gorgeous city, but especially in the snow...
Thanks for sharing the history of Hakodate. I really enjoy watching footage of your Hokodate trip with Satoshi san, I was so impressed there are lots of historic buildings there. The steep slopes reminded me of San Francisco where I used to live a long time ago.

Really reminds me of my part of Switzerland. Obvious that this was a foreign influenced enclave.
@Shinichi's World

Looks like a nice spring day to me.
Beautiful.....a winter wonderland.
Beautiful winter walk in Hakodate.
so nostalgic for me. that was the very Lucky Pierrot i went to in Hakodate. oishi! i'm so mad i didn't know about Gotoken though!
Such a beautiful place. Thanks for sharing. On my bucket list
I loved your last video! I’ve been waiting for this! 🤍
I like those travel-videos, thank you very much for sharing!
Such a beautiful place.
Ahh Shinichi! I'm in Hakodate now and going to be checking out the spots you recommend!!
You guys are walking in our footsteps of February 2020. I have Fernweh. English doesn't have a word for it. That was German.
Aloha! Thank you! Beautiful!
Oh what caught my interest the most was the aesthetic vintage packaging of desserts in Gotoken! I'd definitely keep those boxes as souvenirs 😍 and it really felt like you were in a European country. Would love to go there one day 💞
Thank you for this wonderful vlog, your knowledge and your curiosity! As you've said, interesting architecture...and shops! Love it!
So beautiful!! Great tour brother! XOXO
Great tour of the area, the snow always adds to the feel of this place
This is so nice and relaxing. Love seeing the both of you together

Crema Catalana is a spanish dish, maybe you can compare it with crème brûlée, a custard pudding with a caramelised sugar crust, I like it 🙂
Beautiful 👍🏼😊
Loved it!
No snow in San Francisco, thank you!
35:35 💙
楽しみにしておきます。❤️
お待ちしております。
I am curious. Why did you not go into the the Hakodate Ward Public Hall? It would have been interesting to see the inside and you could have warmed up.
Do you thi k that civic building with the rest room, cafe and lounge etc was once a department store.
💖
Hotel Eki Mae. I laughed.
Сказочность Японского Приморья
The street are very quiet
Why it is so quiet boys? Hardly any people around…due to the snow? Xxx
Not many people visit Hokkaido during the winter as it’s cold. I like how quiet it is though
@@Shinichisworld aww thank you Shinichi! Yes it’s nice when quiet as you can have a really good explore. ❤️ xxx
Sadap
Wow a restaurant with german letters. Prost🍻
5AM or 6AM PST? Sandra Butler.
@Sandra Butler...... It will be 5:00 AM, PST.

Yea we’ve been together for over 20 years
This place looked deserted it's like a ghost town
No offense but why are you wearing a mask when outdoors?
Pound cake
