Going to get Gus-Gus out for a quick walk, and I"ll be back to answer your comments! I hope you enjoyed this video - I had a lot of fun filming and editing this!!!!!
For real this channel is a revolution in Japanese lifestyle videos. She is not a weeb, not nerd, not a super GENKI gaijin... just a normal, RESPECTFUL, Americana perspective on Japanese life outside of the metropolis. Very rare.
Omg I love trying new things! I used to not do it because I thought I would be bad - then I realized it's not about being good or bad... it's about spending time with being and being comfortable being uncomfortable!
the more I see it, the more perfect it is. The people, the view, food... even the pottery lol 😂 i love this so much and it makes me want to go to japan so bad 😩❤️ thanks for sharing Caitlin (also happy belated birthday🎉)
I'm so glad you like it! I really think small-town Japan has the best energy... everyone is so so sweet and always really helpful (like when you get lost and can't park your car, lol). Thank you for watching, Laura!
I really cry with this video, everything was so lovely and calm. I loved to see you in conversations with japanese friends. I am really in love with this channel, you made this with a lot love. I want to start japanese classes when I finished my english ones, and your videos made me want this much harder. Kisses from Brazil 💕
I would definitely love to see a fall haul from a convenience store!! I love that Japan has so many seasonal items so I'm curious to see what flavors and things they incorporate! Definitely want to know if they're as big in pumpkin flavored things as the US lol
awww your vlogs are helping me get through this yr. been on lockdown and stuck at home since march in my country. your vlogs has helped me build resilience in this times of crisis. it makes me excited for the future --- once this pandemic ends. i want to travel to japan again and miss it terribly. this is something im really looking oforward to and i hope one day we bump into each other. gus is such a ray of sunshine..
I have such respect for you. I love in the video once you get to the bread class you make the comment that some moments are special and should be kept off camera. I love this about you. Video is beautiful. Thank you for taking us on your journey.
I moved to Shimane (next to hiroshima and yamaguchi) last August, and I also fell in love with Japanese pottery. My biggest concern is bringing everything I've collected back to the states with me. I love that you show the inaka charm in all of your videos. Rural Japan is so underrated!!
honestly, one of the reasons I started vlogging was more as a virtual diary - I really want to show my kids these one day so they can see how cool I used to be, lol! Japan is waiting for you
Oh the pottery 😍😍😍😍 This is something you are gonna cherish so much if and when you are leaving Japan. Imagine sitting in your chair at age 92, sipping tea from a handmade pottery cup that you know EXACTLY where was bought 😍 Remembering the old days :-) Yes to the 7eleven haul! How about something about the Japanese fall-traditions? Like do they celebrate in some specific way? Is there something families always do in the Autumn? Etc.
Thank you for sharing these moments, they were such fun to watch! I admire that you are not afraid to participate in these activities with locals and older people ✨
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed it :))) I love trying new things - even if I'm intimidated! I grow the most as a person when I do things like this
Thank you so much for showing the beautiful countryside of Japan in a very beautiful way. I am from Ehime which is just across the ocean from Hiroshima, but now living in the Nenetherlands. I havent been able to go back to Jp due to Corona over 1.5 years, but this is exactly my hometown looks like, and we have the same 5 oclock chime that reminded me of my childhood. Thank you so much, cannot appreciate it more!
Thanks for showing us a different side of Japan, Caitlin - this video is so informative and super chill! We're always excited to see your updates, and they kinda inspire us to film something from a different perspective, or at least remind us to be more present in our everyday lives! As usual, we're looking forward to your next video!
Those rice fields are so beautiful! The scenery of that area looks so nice compared to the walls of my house I’ve been looking at since quarantine started and I’m dying to travel so bad. To help with that though I’ve been going on a lot of bike rides around my city recently and It just allows me to breath and take a good look at what’s around me. Hope everyone is staying safe!
I really want to see fall themed videos! I don't really have anything in mind but it's one of my favorite seasons, and I can only imagine the countryside in Japan would be super pretty during fall
Love all of your videos !!! I'd also love just simple day in your life videos, nothing complicated! I just love your videos so much, I could litterally watch anything from this channel lol
So beautiful, the rice fields are so cool. That was a tight road. Love this video, so amazing. Thank you for sharing. The people there are so nice and friendly and helpful. So inspirational. ❤❤😍🌹💥
Thank you so much for sharing! 🥰 I’m watching from Melbourne Australia, I’ve lost count of how many weeks we’ve been locked down due to COVID and I am dreaming of my next adventure. Today I felt like I was in the movie Totoro 🌸💕 love your channel so much thank you for making me smile today!
So fun! Thanks so much for this video- looking forward to talking with you and Linda at 5pm tonight as we chat about all of these great adventures together :)
What a collection of pottery, so awesome. The people there are so friendly, helpful. Such an inspiration. I want some of that sourdough bread. Love this video, so amazing. Thank you so much for sharing. 😍🌹🌹🌹💥💞
Thanks for sharing, I lived in Kyoto for a year in 2019 and I miss Japan so much!! I also love pottery so I totally get that paying for craftsmanship is expensive, but worth it. If you ever go to Okinawa, they have a lot of pottery and glassware made from natural materials over there, worth a look!
Your trip to the rice field was very peaceful to watch. Love the pottery you bought and all the baked goods you made! Yes, please do a 7-eleven fall haul. I love the 7-elevens in Japan. The ones in the states don’t compare at all...like not even a little bit. I’m a new subscriber and really enjoy your content. 😊
hi, the bowl with the cherries is in the hagi ware style, you can tell because of the egg shell cracking texture and the iridescent glaze. Hagi ware style was forcibly brought over to japan from korea during the occupation period
Great video as always! I love baking japanese stuff, I have only tried Hokkaido and melon pan and it's so much fun!🥳 I really want to travel to Japan sometime... Everyone there seems so nice to strangers!😍
I didn't know how to eat melon pan so I asked my friend who have been to Japan and she said they ate it with ice cream. IT WAS SO GOOD! If you haven't already you really need to try! And first I didn't actually know Hokkaido was a place until I saw a tv show where they was there. That bread was the fluffiest bread I have ever ate! I really want to bake more japanese stuff because it seems much more fun than Swedish stuff. Our pastry and bread is pretty boring!
Good morning from Alaska! Thank you for a beautiful video to brighten my day. I really enjoy following your adventures in Japan and would love to see a 711 fall haul :)
All the pottery was so beautiful! Somehow until I started following you it never crossed my mind that pottery might be a thing in Japan, of course I knew it existed lol, but somehow it didn't strike me as a very big thing, I don't know why since I always watch Japanese shows and I keep finding myself mesmerized with the plates and cups... Guess it was always in the back of my mind haha
Hello, this is Claudia from NC , happy belated birthday my was Friday, omg ,the view from the rice field so beautiful n the bread looks delicious, thanks for sharing 😁
Love your pottery collection! I would love to see how you display your pieces! I have some pottery that I purchased on a couple trips to Japan and just love them.
UGH! I want a big shelf! Right now I keep a lot of them out for fruit and random collection bowls (I love seeing them out!) I would love to have a glass or open-style shelf to display them!
hi!! OHHHH great questions! the one that looks like handwriting/ cursive is called "moontime" the regular text style font is "League Spartan" I use them with my Canva subscription
Hi Caitlin, happy belated birthday! love your pottery haul :) Leading to the fall, are you planning to try out some apple-themed activities/products? e.g. Aomori is quite famous for its apples. I'm also curious what teaching in the country side is like and what subject you teach (ofc if you don't mind me asking)
happy belated birthday, Cait 😊🧡one question'! Now that it's creeping into fall (or autumn), is it starting to get cold in Iwakuni? Like how many degrees?
Hi sweet Giselle! thank you for the birthday love! It is FINALLY starting to feel chilly in Iwakuni! It's really hard to say exactly how cold it is because it has changed almost daily.... BUT i will say the mornings are really nice and *crisp* but by the afternoon I'm really hot and sweaty :/ it's rather hard to know how to dress right now, LOL! such a weird in-between stage!
I'm obsessed with Japanese ceramics and it seems you can pick up some things at a very reasonable price. Just one request please... would you be able to add, in the longer description, what area/town name you visit in your vlogs. I know you mention it but could you also add it, sometimes I'm stopping trying to take notes about places I want to visit. Thanks for your videos, I'm really enjoying the insight into life there.
Your Japanese seems to be getting so much better! (Not that I speak it well either, but you just seem more confident when you're speak it in this video!)

@Nicole G. omg my sister has a dog named Mr. Bean.. he's *special* and I LOVE him!!! thank you for the birthday wishes

Hi! thank you so much for the kind support
The Japanese rice fields look like something straight out of a Ghibli movie
I thought of only yesterday! When the protagonist travels to the countryside to experience their way of life!!
Ahhh I said the same thing! I love it
I really love that you have adorable hobbies like pottery and now bread making! Looks so fun I’ve always wanted to take cooking classes here
Omg I love trying new things! I used to not do it because I thought I would be bad - then I realized it's not about being good or bad... it's about spending time with being and being comfortable being uncomfortable!
her.atlas that’s actually the main reason I love living in japan 💖 getting out of my comfort zone
I love how there wasn’t much music in this one. The background talking and nature sounds etc were so relaxing. I really like your pottery choices too!
I love the sentiment "why own anything old or expensive if you aren't going to use it"
Exactly! She´s so so right! It´s really wise words to live by
the more I see it, the more perfect it is. The people, the view, food... even the pottery lol 😂 i love this so much and it makes me want to go to japan so bad 😩❤️ thanks for sharing Caitlin (also happy belated birthday🎉)
I'm so glad you like it! I really think small-town Japan has the best energy... everyone is so so sweet and always really helpful (like when you get lost and can't park your car, lol). Thank you for watching, Laura!

The red paint on the wood is called “Urushi”, Japanese lacquerware☺️❤️ I love the plates and the cup you got!
That bottom shelf of all the red & brown pottery was calling to me! Beautiful!
I watch your rural vlogs like this one the night before an early shift to remind myself why I'm working in the first place lol
I have such respect for you. I love in the video once you get to the bread class you make the comment that some moments are special and should be kept off camera. I love this about you.
Video is beautiful. Thank you for taking us on your journey.
Omg the sound of nature is absolutely beautiful😍😍😍
Love your videos !

I couldn't agree more!!!! And yes I worry about getting it home, too! BUT YOLO the potters can talk all my money, LOL
i love your content! it's the type i wish i had made when i lived in japan! yours truly inspires me to go back :)
honestly, one of the reasons I started vlogging was more as a virtual diary - I really want to show my kids these one day so they can see how cool I used to be, lol! Japan is waiting for you
Japanese people seem so sweet and nice. They always look so happy and ready to help it's really cute. It makes my heart happy 🥰
Oh the pottery 😍😍😍😍 This is something you are gonna cherish so much if and when you are leaving Japan. Imagine sitting in your chair at age 92, sipping tea from a handmade pottery cup that you know EXACTLY where was bought 😍 Remembering the old days :-)

i just love your channel always makes me so happy
Thank you for tuning in and watching all the time, Lily!
Really love, enjoyed the Bread making class. So sweet😍
i love how respectful you are of the japanese culture!!
Loved the comment about using the 100 year old antique bowl!
The music selection for this video was perfect!
This is one of my favorite videos so far (this is probably the third time I’ve watched it )
I love this video. For some reason it feels so familiar to me. It brings water to my eyes ❤️❤️❤️🙌🏽
Many thanks to let us going with you to all these interesting adventures! I love all your pottery shopping and the breads look amazing!
Those rice fields are so beautiful! The scenery of that area looks so nice compared to the walls of my house I’ve been looking at since quarantine started and I’m dying to travel so bad.

What a beautiful tour you gave us!! I just saw 2 videos and i love your channel!! Thank you!!
Those denim overalls you wore for bread making are super cute. Mind sharing the brand? Thanks for sharing such fun things from your life in Japan.
omg I loooove them! they are made by Madewell! I think they have some newer styles that are a more relaxed fit right now :)
I also think Walmart and Old Navy sell similar styles
Thank you!

Love all of your videos !!! I'd also love just simple day in your life videos, nothing complicated! I just love your videos so much, I could litterally watch anything from this channel lol

The cherry bowl is amazing! 😭😍
So beautiful, the rice fields are so cool. That was a tight road. Love this video, so amazing. Thank you for sharing. The people there are so nice and friendly and helpful. So inspirational. ❤❤😍🌹💥
HI BOBBY!!! Wasn't that road so narrow!!!!!! I had major anxiety..lol. Thank you so much for tuning in
The rice fields look so pretty right before harvest but I've always been so eager to see them full of water in spring! Hopefully one day 🥰

I loved how everyone clapped and cheered for you!!!
This is so relaxing and beautiful!
Glad you think so! I had a lot of fun practicing filming and editing so its more simple :)

Id love to see thrifting videos in Japan! Especially how you thrift for Japanese pottery.
Loved this video. Beautiful panoramic shots of the rice fields! I would love to learn how they celebrate Halloween in Japan.
You're criminally underrated on TH-cam. I wish more of your TikTok followers watched your videos here! They never fail to amaze me :)
I've never been so early to anyanything in my life...HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY 🥳

Those cinnamon raisin rolls look SOO good! Could you give a rough recipe to make them? If its a secret, I understand completely! Love your channel

hi!! OHHHH great questions! the one that looks like handwriting/ cursive is called "moontime" the regular text style font is "League Spartan" I use them with my Canva subscription
@@heratlas thank you so much! you're eye for aesthetic is great!
Hi Caitlin, happy belated birthday! love your pottery haul :) Leading to the fall, are you planning to try out some apple-themed activities/products? e.g. Aomori is quite famous for its apples. I'm also curious what teaching in the country side is like and what subject you teach (ofc if you don't mind me asking)
happy belated birthday, Cait 😊🧡one question'! Now that it's creeping into fall (or autumn), is it starting to get cold in Iwakuni? Like how many degrees?
Hi sweet Giselle! thank you for the birthday love! It is FINALLY starting to feel chilly in Iwakuni! It's really hard to say exactly how cold it is because it has changed almost daily.... BUT i will say the mornings are really nice and *crisp* but by the afternoon I'm really hot and sweaty :/ it's rather hard to know how to dress right now, LOL! such a weird in-between stage!
I love watching your videos! The rice fields are amazing. I would love to see anything fall food related also is Halloween celebrated in Japan?
thanks for the video, I missed it! xx nice ceramic.
OMG!!! been a week!!! finally u upload my video!! happy birthday btw!! always waiting for u video btw...
omg how nice are you!! yes, yes, I periodically take a week off to detox - especially if I don't have the time to edit. So glad you're here!!
Yay!!! I love these videos
I love your channel so much and happy belated birthday 💗
You're the best!!!!! thank you for tuning in and the birthday wishes :)
I'm obsessed with Japanese ceramics and it seems you can pick up some things at a very reasonable price. Just one request please... would you be able to add, in the longer description, what area/town name you visit in your vlogs. I know you mention it but could you also add it, sometimes I'm stopping trying to take notes about places I want to visit. Thanks for your videos, I'm really enjoying the insight into life there.
HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY LATE BIRTHDAY!!! Also I love your videos, I want to do study abroad in japan and move there one day!
As usual, another great video.
does anyone else just cry over the fact that caitlin is just living our dream?
Your Japanese seems to be getting so much better! (Not that I speak it well either, but you just seem more confident when you're speak it in this video!)
I love those kinds of vlogs
makes my heart *flutter*
Love this video!! I love all the Japanese pottery
i LOVE this video so much😆❤️
HI JULIE!!!!
HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!!🥳🥳🥳❤️❤️
YES FALL HAUL
Pottery shopping in Japan is literally my DREAM!!!!!! I can only hope my fiance and I get to travel there in our honeymoon in 2022
