Thanks for watching! In case you are interested, you can find my video of Miyajima Island here: th-cam.com/video/t7lclYdAFsU/w-d-xo.html
I think all your videos regardless of location are well done and I like your style of filming. I travel the world through your videos.
It's wonderful to know that you feel like you're traveling the world through these videos! You will see a lot more. The best is yet to come 😊
great message on staying humble even when you have money/power. think that pamphlet is apt for you.
Thank you! I'm glad you heard the message. I kept that pamphlet 😊
My Unce was in the Navy during WW2. He was on one of the 1st ships to enter Hiroshima after the atomic bomb. He didnt discuss it at length with us, only to say "it was like sailing into hell ". Years later, and by chance, I read of another naval man that had been on another ship around the same time. He was in the process of writing about it. It was a terrible piece of history, but the area was later to be successfully rebuilt, with the memory of great loss and devastation honoured and chesished. ❤
Thank you for sharing the story, and many thanks to your uncle for his service. Many people who entered Hiroshima shortly after the atomic bomb suffered from cancer due to radiation exposure. The radiation persisted for several years, causing some individuals to develop symptoms decades later, with many ultimately dying.
@WandererBell -Sadly, that was later to be his fate, too. On entering the devastation, the crew fished a traumatised young girl out of the water. She was approximately 6 years old. Obviously, there was a language barrier, and she remained on board until somebody could safely take her. She became the ships mascot and was named 'suzi' by the crew. I saw a photograph of her only once. My uncles ship was a minesweeper called the Ariadne. It was one of the few ships the closest by, hence it being sent in. My uncle often wondered what became of her. Thank you for your wonderful, informative guide of the now rebuilt city. ❤️
Well guess I’m guilty of being rare. lol. I love all your videos… each country and their people have their own particular beauty.
Glad to hear it. Thank you.
I can understand why so many places begin with peace. No more atomic bombs
and no more wars
Yes
I enjoy your videos from around the world and plan my trip with your recommendations.
I did Iceland, Switzerland. Austria following your ideas.
Are you planning to list your stays in Japan cities with walk thru.
Thank you for watching. I left Japan yesterday and arrived in Seoul, South Korea, where I will be staying for a month. All my videos are published in the order they were filmed, so you can track the sequence of cities I visited on the videos tab on my channel's main page.
@WandererBell That is great you can travel for a long period.
The most challenging part is the language barrier and finding places with Google Maps. I did China where Google is totally not working and must problem solve.
I agree, the language barrier is the most challenging part especially in Japan. I use Google Translator App and it helps a lot. Google Maps does not work in South Korea either. It does not give walking directions so I had to download the local Korean App called "Naver" which is hard to use because it does not always recognize the address in English.
@WandererBell That's great you do the research and problem solve... countries do not like to give mapping data to foreign companies because of political and military reasons.
Solo travel allows flexibility in housing, eating and sceneries.
I wonder if you have seen Bears that threatened you. There are no Bears in Denmark. Of cause the northern and western part of Greenland have ice Bears. The Sirius patrol, a dog sleigh patrol run by the navy in North Eastern Greenland might have seen them. If there are any greenlanders that still hunt ice Bears, they too have seen them
Yes, I once saw a bear from a distance in Yosemite National Park in California and didn't finish the hike. I haven't returned to the park since. When I was in Greenland, I avoided regions with polar bears, but I still felt nervous hiking alone.
