    The school bags are meant to last throughout their elementary school I believe, hence the high price. Also the temporary Tenmangu Shrine looks like something right out of a Ghibli film! I think I speak for everyone here but please continue to bring us your wonderfully curated content 🤩

    i know that feeling of strolling the streets one last time before you head to the airport. feels hectic but at the same time it feels like you appreciate everything more in a last chance opportunity to take it all in. Great video as usual.

Your travels inspire me to visit more places that are more niche so to speak.

    Enjoy seeing such beautifully shot videos ❤ it's been really surprising to see how popular film photography seems to be in the countries you've visited (being in my 50s I thought it had died out wirh digital cameras). Is there a particular reason or artistic preference for film?

    • @RalphSam
      @RalphSam  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks, we really appreciate it ❤️🌸 the faded colors and slower process are just some of the beautiful things about film photography. I always say having film developed is like opening a gift. It really is, even if some pictures dont always turn out perfect 🥸🎞✌🏽

      @RalphSam  28 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      depends on the situation. if we're in public, like in a crowd on the street, we just film. if we're in a shop we ask the shop person if it's okay to film with our phone. If someone indicates they don't want to be filmed, we listen. 😊
