- Coming from a small town in BC, teaches you a lot of survival skills, practical "life" skills and basic social skills, but it teaches you almost nothing about the world. I am thankful for the skills I have from my home town, because that is the skillset that has allowed me to pursue this current travel business with the rig, but I also learned a lot while I was pursuing other paths before covid. My time on cruise ships taught me so much more about the world, and since Covid I have not been able to explore further into that curiosity. This series is a risk and a test, but it's something I truly have to do. I owe a lot of my success to the folks around the world that educated me and encouraged me to pursue stories of interest and culture, instead of politics and outrage. In the grand scheme of Social Media business pursuits, I suppose I have chosen the hard path, but the product is something I am, always proud of and so happy and excited to share.
This series is exactly that. It is adventure, it is risk, it is culture and it is travel, but it is all with a purpose. I want to share with you the aspects that changed my life. The things that made me think and question what I was taught growing up. This video is based around food, but it really is so much more than that. I hope to entertain you all, but a small portion I hope to impact a little more. Most will not read this description, but if you do, you're probably the demographic that will experience that impact the most. I will never truly be able to translate the impact and change I have experienced from traveling, but I will absolutely do my best to share that transformation with you. If you experience a bit of change yourself, I am eternally grateful for that.

A path not taken. In the early 1980s, I was a newspaper photojournalist in a modest-sized, slowly-dying Ohio city. I got to be friends with a local freelance photographer. One day, he told me that he’d accepted a job on a cruise ship, and they needed another photographer and he could get me hired onto the ship. I thought about it, but decided no. Until seeing this video, I never thought about what I might have missed by not taking that job. Interesting how your ancient past can be reframed by what you learn today.
The lifestyle onboard is not for everyone, but it was just right for me.
Merry Christmas thanks again for wonderful adventure its my first Christmas without my wife of 51 years who passed away you helped me get over part of the emotion thanks and keep up the good work.
Merry Christmas, I hope you can enjoy the many memories you must have made with her.
Yes Yes Yes!! I love that you've found yet another way to diversify your channel, DA Abroad!! Im looking forward to more Japanese adventure.
I hope this will be a viable avenue for me. We’ll see how the videos do :)
@@Destination_Adventure this video put a smile on my face through almost all of it, keep doing what you're doing!
Dustin, I was used to waking up on Saturdays to watch another adventure. To my surprise you have another adventure, truly enjoyed this. Thank you. Keep doing what you do and chasing your dreams and sharing them with us.
Happy Saturday:)
I always love these kinds of videos of other countries, how they live and their traditions. The fact those woman free dive at their age is incredible. And I love how they are aware about how much they harvest so they can continue to do it!
Love what you do, keep it up! 👍
Dustin, hi from Calgary. This is an awesome new direction for your channel . I imagine it cant but in certain ways take you back to the cruise ship days .I really respect your ability to enjoy the different foods. As per usual 10 out 0f 10 representing Canada abroad. Safe travels and thanks for producing this content as it opens my eyes to other parts of the world be it home,US,Mexico and now Japan. Extremely enjoyable, thanks.
That was fun! As a young man I lived in Japan for 2 years while I was in the Navy back in the late 1970's. I bought a motorcycle to travel around which meant I spent 2 years getting lost because I don't speak or read Japanese. I would always seek out the small mom and pop little restaurants to eat in, and needles to say I ate some things I wouldn't want to step on. I have a lot of fond moments in Japan. Great job keep up the good work.
It feels really special to be brought along on these journeys. Thank you for creating this wonderful content!
I appreciate that, thank you.
Your episodes are always far more than just a video. We feel like we are there with you and as always, a very heart felt thank you. Merry Christmas to all from OZ.
I appreciate that, thank you.
Mate, what I love about your interviewing style, is that it completely focuses on the subject. It feels as if they’re talking to us. I’m always stoked when you get someone to have a chat on camera. Some of my favourite vids of yours have had this. She was definitely a fun lady, a bit cheeky and full of happiness.
As always, great work.
Cheers from Tasmania!
I love to interview people. This one required a lot of help, hahaha but I think it’s always a better way to go. Thank you for the comment. 😊
It was really nice to hear your story about how and why this channel was created. Thank you for sharing your Japan journey.
Thank you for this! Japan is so beautiful - SO GLAD we get to experience it with you. Cant wait for the next episode! Happy Holidays Dustin!
The truck series was a great change of pace but this is the episode I didn't realize I was missing. Very well done, Dustin. You're truly becoming a master of your craft. Keep up the great work!
Neat. I've been visiting Japan every few years for about 20 years now. My wife is fluent after having lived there. I will tell you upfront, there is a lifetime worth of adventure there.
Dustin, You are absolutely killing it! This is the best channel on TH-cam, from your choice of music to the narrating, the interviews and the absolute overall quality of production. This is nothing short of amazing!
Thank you so much.
Another absolutely great production Dustin! This brings back great memories for me, back in 1979 when I was in my early 20"s I had the opportunity to spend a month in Japan. It surely is one of my fondest memories from abroad. I can't thank you enough for letting us all travel along with you in your great life adventure! As always I look forward to next weeks travels!
Good on ya' Dustin! In the early 70's, I was a Vietnamese linguist for USAFSS -- went to school stateside for 2 years -- spent a year in Okinawa and a year in Thailand. You have just the right combination of curiosity and a willingness to take a chance on food you've never eaten before. Keep up the good and amazing work! :)
Oh this is so exciting to hear ! You have brought so much joy for those of us that can’t travel. Japan has always been an interesting place. We want to with you a very Merry Christmas and all the best for the upcoming coming new year 2024. 🎄❤️ keep up the amazing work
Its so beautiful there thank u for bringing us along on ur cultural experience ❤😊
Absolutely love it. Love Japanese culture. It is so unique. Thank you for doing this. Can't wait for the next one. 😊😊
Man, this brings back so many memories, my mom loved Japanese culture and we as kids learned Japanese words and how to use chop sticks when we were still very young. When I got older, my mom and I went to Japanese cooking classes together. She learned to speak, read and write the language. Sadly, she is gone, but I will always remember those times. Thanks Dustin for such a great video and the ability to remember the good times I had with my mom : )
She would have loved a visit there for sure. Beautiful culture.
It's funny you mention the futons. I got a futon for my 12th year Christmas gift and it was very comfortable. But it was like 8" thick. I can't imagine sleeping on a 2" mat, my bones would hurt : )@@Destination_Adventure
Waiting for my Saturday show as if I’m a kid waiting for Saturday cartoons back in the day.
Million subscribers, here we come! Merry Christmas Dustin and family, you deserve all the love and success. 🎄
This one was a real treat. I loved learning more about the lady fisher women, I had read about them in the past and it sure was nice to hear their traditions right from them. I woukd really like to go to Japan at some point but I probably will never be able to. Really nice Dustin my wife and I are eagerly awaiting your next installment of your trip. Much love.
One of the coolest Dustin videos! What a blessing for a Saturday morning 🌄 the Ama San was certainly my favourite - Japanese Mermaids! Cheers Dustin - Thank you for the superior content ❤
Thank you so much.
Wish you love and luck in all your travels and most beautiful destinations! Huge fan here! You will be awesome on your new endeavors!
Dustin, I've watched damn near every video you've put out and this is by far my favourite. Rural Japan is my bucket list #1. It has always fascinated me. The respectful, polite culture and willingness to SHARE it with respectful newcomers is admirable. I love history and Japan has that in abundance. Thank you for sharing this. It looks like you are having a great time.
Glad the adventure continues through winter!
Excellent video Dustin. Heaven followed you for the last 4 years on your videos, I'm so happy that you were able to take it the next step with travel! Congratulations!! You're living the dream we'd all love to be doing. Love that you keep meeting up with Emmy, you guys have so much fun together. Don't let the moment pass you by. You guys are great together. Also. Please go to a Japanese distillery. It's on our top 5 list for the coming few years and would love to see your experience!
Two thumbs up.......I'm Looking forward to more adventures abroad.........Great job to you both........Merry Christmas and a Happy and healthy New Year.......Blessings and safe travels.
What a great video . Amy and I just enjoyed this experience with you. It’s truly amazing to watch you and see your journey. Thank you again and we can’t wait for the next one. May your holiday season bring you joy in everything you do. Merry Christmas.
Thank you both. Very happy to have you along for the ride. 😊
Japan is very unique culture. They have many dialogue. But the people are so respectful and kind. If you have time Youska is a beautiful place to visit. I hope I spelled all this correct, 😊.
Very Cool! We just finished making Shōgun here in Vancouver recently and I spent a year and a half researching 16th century traditions - LOVE your expanded winter projects and I admire all your adventures here at home and a special thank you - Sandon and meeting Hal and Vida was something we made happen after watching your video pushing me to make the motorcycle trip that was on my list for years!!! I love history and love discovering small town hidden stories and truly admire your cinematography! Well done
Thank you very much.
I am loving hearing your voice again. And Emmi’s laughter. Loved every minute of this!
Thank you :)
🎄 MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎄DUSTIN! We gotta say we've really missed you in all you do and we are excited and waiting to see how the outfit update will be on your touring rig ! ⛄️ ☃️
This is our favorite show on youtube by far the best ❄️
This episode is so cool cause as you know I'm a Chef du cuisine but something relating is for 2 years I studied and mastered Ramen ' Izakaya Cuisine and I gotta say how much fun and respect I have for the intricate dedication to quality and perfection goes into everything the Japanese do! In Osaka Japan I not only learned about cooking in a new form but living too !
You’re killing it man. Honestly. You have the voice, face, personality and videography skills. You’re going places. Pun intended! Keep the content coming
Hi Dustin, My wife and I have just returned from Japan for 16 days and we had a wonderful time with family and friends. It’s good to see you are enjoying Japan. Take care of yourself. We can’t wait till next Saturday, Nanae and Kenneth, Vancouver, Canada.
That’s quite the different episode after the patreon walkaboot. Thank you for sharing this incredible experience, that is so much more than I ever expected from Japan.
I’m happy it was a good surprise :)
Dustin! Long time DA fan, and I absolutely loved this episode! Really looking forward to the rest of this series. The meal you had with the diver lady looked amazing. I thought her commitment to sustainability was amazing. Such a simple thought of not using tanks, because she would be able to harvest too much was amazing to hear. It's now on my bucket list to have that dining experience.
It’s a long drive out there, so you’ll have to rent a car or guide, but it’s well worth it. Beautiful experience.
I might be your oldest admirer but I want you to know that I am thrilled by and I appreciate your channel! Thank you 😊 .and yes, I am happy to be part of your Patreon supporters.
Thank you so much :)
Hi from Brisbane Australia Dustin. Absolutely love the 1st instalment of the new Raw & Abroad series! You have an amazing talent for capturing the beauty that can still be found in this troubled world , and I love your entertaining and enthusiastic approach to life. Thank you for enabling this travel-limited elderly lady, to experience the world through your eyes. ❤
Such a nice compliment, thank you. 😊
I wrote you a comment several weeks back that stated "You are soo much more than TH-cam Dustin." And here you are declaring the same. Midas touch you have. Your creations are always gold.
Very much appreciated, thank you. 😊
Destination Adventure Abroad. That title couldn't be any more perfect! I love learning about different cultures, and your bringing us just that - with awesome history to go with it! Love this, Dustin!
Oh, I think the winter series is going to be a hit, careful Dustin, your fans will thirst for more and more...
Your companion is so very cute. Thanks for the warm people and interesting tour.
What keeps me watching your videos is that twinkle u get in your eyes when u explore .You r present for every second and it really does translate to your videos ..Not everyone has a true gift ,you my dear r one of those special people❤❤.Merry Christmas and a very happy New Year..❤❤
Enjoying this
Great episode, looked like a fantastic experience.
Dustin, that certainly does have an impact on me too, it clearly does show that travel is in my heart too. I love all the human interaction you have and all around the world - it does reinforce with me that although it might be the other side of the world, discovering a new culture, or diving deeper [ha! you see what I did there ;o) ] into a culture, but underneath, there are so many beautiful people, their minds and souls just waiting to be found - are we in fact all that different? Much love and thanks for continuing to take us along with you matey ☺
In advance, as it's coming up fast now - I hope you, your family and friends all have a wonderful Christmas 🎄🎉🎁
Stunning My goodness your videos are amazing and I think they are very much like watching a film. This is really beautiful. Everything looks so yummy and visually pleasing.
Awesome.
This is my happy place. 😃😍🥰 Sleeping in on a Saturday morning and waking up to Destination Adventure! What a way to start my Saturday morning, coffee in hand and Destination Adventure Abroad.🤩🤩🤩
Love this!
Really nice seeing Emi again. I love learning about different cultures, their practices and of course their food 😁 Follow your dreams Dustin, you have what it takes.
*was supposed to say follow your heart, not dreams 🙃
Love these Dustin! Keep doing this!

Wow, what an awesome trip!! Japan has been on my wish list for ages, my aunt used to travel there years ago and her stories of the people and the culture always caught my attention. The Ama san ( I hope I spelled that right) are an awesome group of ladies, if I ever get there that is a must do for me. Thanks for taking us with you and to the local people, not the touristy stuff. Merry Christmas!!
Dustin, love the new travels!
