I FULLY RENOVATED AN OLD JAPANESE HOUSE IN KYOTO! The final look Eps 07 

"the wood is softer than a Kitkat" please 😭😭 but you're handling this so well. the entire place is so perfect!

“I’m not about to let me stand in the way of my blessings.” PREACH SUNDAI 👏🏼

"These doors aren't closed. They're just closed to people who aren't ready to enter them." Whew! Loved that! You are definitely a testament to what God can do if you just trust Him and meet Him halfway. Thank you for sharing your journey with us! Also, the house looks amazing, lol.

Details with Douglas has to be a fixed segment, absolutely loved it. Yasu is the man!

"You would be surprised how many people are willing to help you if you're just in the right position to receive the help." So true.

So proud ofnyou sundai ...inspiring 37year Old mama here to fight for my dreams harder ❤❤you're an inspiration

“ You just can’t beat the person that never gives up “ worddd soo happy for you sundai ❤

Sundaiiii 😭 that last bit made me cry! I’ve commented on your videos before saying how I’m constantly chasing the dream to live in Japan but struggle because I don’t have a degree. However, I do know a lot of what is holding me back is myself. Because I know I could go to language school in Japan or uni in Japan etc but I’m so terrified of leaving my family, my very small circle of friends and (maybe stupidly) my senior dog. I’ve always struggled making friends and struggled mentally since I was 13 and I’m now almost 28 and have recently found out I more than likely have autism which won’t help with the not wanting to leave my support network :’) I know I have held myself back a lot in life and you’re so right that you can’t win the lottery if you don’t play. I messaged you earlier and I’ll say it again, you are such a MASSIVE inspiration and I can’t thank you enough. I may not have the confidence to follow my dreams but I am so proud of you for chasing yours 🧡

The entire video was such a vibe but the best part was your message at the end. It was inspiring and it pushes you to actually get into a place to receive more. I always walk away from your videos with a sense of purpose. I needed that message today more than anything. Thank you

"Help God help you" I like that. You really made me think. I want to receive my blessings but am I really ready to receive them? I've got to do the prep work with the means that I have and not let excuses hold me back. Congrats on bringing The Blue Bamboo to life; it looks great and your hard work is inspiring.

why doesnt this have millions of views..... the editing is amazong and she's so entertaining

1) This place is gorgeous and proud of you 🎉 2) Yasu and team 💯 Amazing work 3) I need a Sundai/ Yasu ramen outing video 🍜 😊 4) I need to come to Japan and stay at Blue Bamboo 🎉🎉❤❤😉😘👏🏽

What can I say? You and your team did a fantastic job on this. The home really feels like it honors the location it's in with traditional touches, while still being very YOU! Congratulations - I know I'm looking forward to hopefully booking an extended stay there one day :)

Sundai with a word on Sunday! Meet God half way! Congrats on all of your accomplishments!

You are so correct when you talk about being ready for blessings and being able to have your prep work done. I am a military spouse and my husband and I moved to Italy after living in South Korea. Many people in the community complained about how hard it is to get a job out here and what not. I got my resume and stuff ready before I even applied for anything just to be ready. Woke up randomly in the morning (very early), checked the job postings and saw some things in my field (it was the last day they were accepting applications)! First 30 days of being here I am onboarding to my new job! If I never had my things together, I doubt I would have been able to jump on the opportunity.

You did that thing girl!!! So incredibly proud of you. Despite all the challenges you pressed through and made it happen! You are an inspiration to women of all ages. God bless all your future endeavors and have so much fun with the beautiful Blue Bamboo!

girl i just wanted to say everything about this episode was SO PERFECT. it was funny, inspirational and and the content is so entertaining as usual. My favorite part is you breaking in the non slamming doors and sassily closing them omggg lmaoooo and then Yasu aggressively stabbing the wood basically saying 'girl these termites got em good'. Y'all kill me. I GASPED at the result, and cried at the end message you gave to the fam. I am motivated. Thank you for everything, so excited to see more and see it furnished!!! YOU'RE AMAZINGGG

The scream I let out when I saw this post!!!!! Yasssss!!! I'm so proud of you! You captured this journey so well and executed on your vision! In addition m, the motivational segments the end hit the nail on the head! One day I will be able to follow your footsteps!!! ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

Made it! And YES! Someone snitched! They jealous, Sundai! They jealous! But I love how you keep it real. The trials and the tribulations which equals to triumph and success! Keep succeeding, Sundai! We love it!

Feeling so motivated and inspired to make dreams happen! - do the prep work! - surround yourself with everything related to your dreams/goals - people are willing to help if you’re in the right position - nothing worse than asking for help you’re not ready for, that’s burning bridges - have the product/work ready before reaching out! - get prepared, get ready, the blessings will literally rain down “These doors aren’t closed, they’re just closed for people who aren’t ready to enter them.” - Sundai You are an inspiration!! The Blue Bamboo home is gorgeous and the renovation is jaw-dropping gorgeous

OMGGG THE HOUSE LOOKS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!!! Sundai is seriously one of my favorite youtubers because of how determined and dedicated she is. You seriously inspire me and I’m so proud of you Sundai!!! God bless💕

🎉Yay Congratulations 🎉 love everything, the changes you did to the house came out beautifully, wow. The whole video was giving, ur house, make up, hair, and sponsor part of the video 😂. So happy for you and your success.

lol, the not slamming the doors is called a soft close. Love the results!🎉

"I'm not about to let me stand in the way of my blessings." ~Sundai Love Hits right in the heart. Thank you!

The blue bamboo is looking so good! But also that hair?!!! Its just gorgeous

God is and will always show up for his children who knock and waits for him to answer 🙏🙏🙏🙏May you continue to be in pursuit of his plan for you. I love seeing black women not afraid to tell the world, that Jesus is king and he loves us. Just talk to him and i bet he talks back. Love you sis

Congrats! May all renters love and respect what you created.❤

The place looks fantastic ! And you are a positive and motivational inspiration to those who really need to hear, work hard, stay ready and don't ask for things you aren't ready to receive. I hope the Blue Bamboo brings much happiness and much revenue 🙂

I'm waiting for the Blue Bamboo Merch, that design style looks amazing. Congratz to all that your hard work has produced something amazing.

‘Help God help you.’ Such good food for though t, Sundai.

Ok, sooòo let me just be very honest here. I have not been able to get through the whole video yet. I can't stop the tears long enough to see straight. 😢 Happy ones, of course, but overwhelming none the less. LET ME GET BACK WITH YOU NEICE.❤❤❤

Omg! The before and after shots are perfect. What a difference some of those changes made. Definitely cant wait to see what you do with the furnishings. And i swear im listening to the universe. Just possibly opened up a relationship with a group to come along and cover their journey as THEY grow, all because of a chance encounter and i just talked to some people. Have a great week everyone!

Everytime I watch your videos I have to have coffee. I enjoy seeing your videos, they inspire me!

Helpp.. Yasu is too funny talkin bout 'softer than a kitkat' 🤣🤣

I'm letting the ad roll as I type so you can get that $$! "Stay ready so you don't have to get ready" is literally mine and my husband's motto ever since we decided to have kids. The amount of planning we do... I just think that if you don't plan for all the what ifs, you're setting yourself up for failure. Now, when is your place going live on AirBNB because I wasn't even planning on Kyoto (Nagoya is more my speed) but you've got me wanting to go back for more than just feeding the monkeys lol. I'm so happy for all you've accomplished so far!

Love, there are ALWAYS issues. Know that. Believe it! 🤣 Even for the most seasoned pros there is always something or other that pops up unexpectedly. In the renovation game you gotta jump through a ton of hoops and the rest of the time it’s a whole lot of hurry up and wait. Oh, and it’s gonna cost you more money too. It never fails. You gotta be somewhat flexible and able to think on your feet but still make smart thorough decisions. It’s a lot of pressure and mental stress. It feels so good to feel accomplished though when it’s all done ♥️

I love it!! Not going to lie i was not too sure about the dark colored wood. But honty!! that ish is fire! i'm here for the bathroom panels they're so sleek. Yes to those slam proof doors. OMG absolutely, preach! You are the queen of stay ready! I remember when you showed us those books about real estate. WOW so inspirational. I'm over the moon excited for you. Go Sundai!!!

I am literally on the verge of crying tears of joy for you. I have been here watching your progress and it just inspires me so much to just keep going, no matter what. I am so happy for you and I am still rooting for you for every step you take. I love you girl and have a blessed day/year ❤

Im here for all the add ins, Sunday is hilarious. Impecable amazing transformation. Well Done. 👏🏽❤️

I've been following you for years, and it's at the point where I feel giddy and happy too! Lol You'd swear its my house, congrats! Proud of you💕 One day I'll leave the Caribbean and find myself in Japan

Hi Sundai, I'm proud of you. I've been watching you since Covid and have watched you mature. Owning a house anywhere is no small feat but owning it in Japan is amazing. And while battling sickness. I wish you well on your continued journey.

The gasps I gusped watching this, Sundai! watching this entire journey has been amazing, thank you for sharing. The house is so stunning, uugghh😩👌 such fabulous job on the renovations (shout out the the team!), You are such an inspiration, congratulations!✨

Can we talk about the jeans jumpsuit for a moment?! It is giving life! Also Congrats girlie!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Girrrll she made me share a tear…😢… the only one getting in our ways its ourselfs because the lord is always with us, congratulations 🎉 Sundai

It was a long journey but I’m proud of you!

It looks so good! I'm happy for you! I'm glad that you were able to achieve what you've set out for. I knew you could and would do it. There was no doubts about that. Congrats and may God bless you in all your endeavors ❤🎉😊

Thank you for the confirmation and inspiration. The message at the end, is the push I needed to keep creating. And I pray I can gain enough courage to post. I appreciate you so much. I'm glad I clicked on your video. Thank you 💜💜💙

I loved your last message. I am proud of you Sundai and inspired too. You are hard worker and i appreciate that alot. Wow! God bless you and protect you in all times.

Sundai CONGRATULATION!!!! Girl YOU DID IT!!!! I’m so proud of you and may God BLESS you to be able to purchase more home/properties. And I pray that God bless you to become a real estate mogul!!!!! And I also pray that God restore your health a thousand time better before your diagnoses. GOD CAN DO IT!!!!!!

FINALLY THE MOMENT WE'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR ABOUT A YEAR!!! Literally almost a year ago, when I first discovered her, it was during the time when she was doing the hunting house series and after that, I've been watching every upload of her vlogs till this very moment. It's an emotional moment for me because that's how I discovered her channel, during the housing experience. Also because her vlogs are inspiring and the fact she also lives in Japan which is also the reason why I love her vlogs so much. She puts out a vibe in her vlogs which makes me inspiring to watch. I'm so happy it's finally finished and excited what amazing ideas your gonna put into the house. Also excited what the garden is gonna look like because I also love her gardening series. I am so grateful to find you and adventure along this wonderful journey with you up till this very moment. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AND I"LL ALWAYS LOVE YOU AND SUPPORT YOUR VLOGS/ CHANNEL!!!💖💖💖

When I said I’m tuning in for SuperBowl Sundai, this is what I actually meant ❤

Motivation and inspiration is clearly who you are in this world. Congratulations on your hard work. It looks amazing!

Congratulations Sundai!!! 🎉😭 I honestly got so emotional when you showed the name of the business that built your custom doors. Because if that was not just a straight up confirmation of what God has already destined for you, CANNOT BE TAKEN AWAY OR UNDONE! Then I don't know what is 🙌🏾 You're such an incredible inspiration Sundai, keep doing your thing girl and shining your beautiful light ✨️❤😊 Also was loving that denim jumpsuit 😍

I love it! I’ve been watching you for years and I admire your tenacity and “can do” spirit. You remind me of things that I’ve lost as I’ve aged, truly inspiring ❤.

I’m so proud of you! Chest bump frfr!!! God is good! I’m inspired ⚡️

Yes yasu always coming through !🙌

This is so motivating. Thank you so much. I just wanted to let you know, how big of an impact you are to my life. I look up to you and when done with school I want to be someone like you. ❤

I felt emotional watching this! Seeing your dream come together 😭 I cannot WAIT to see you furnish this place it's gonna be so beautiful! 🎍the renovations are so stunning though, thank you for taking us along on the journey! 💜

I am so excited for you Sundai!!! If I visit Japan and you place is on ABnB I am definitely staying. Everyone of your videos inspires me to do the things I want and get my hustle on. 2024 is going to be my upgrade and boss era. New money moves and adventures.

It makes me so happy when I see you upload videos. You are the most hardworking person I know and I keep wanting to binge your vlogs especially the working ones huhu. Thank you for existing!🥺❤

“You have to make sure you are in the position to receive the blessing”😮‍💨 “There is no point praying to God for a blessing you dont even have the knowledge or skills to receive.” You are amazing🥹 Thank you for inspiring us.❤

Your encouragement at the end of the video… I felt that 🫶🏽🫶🏽. Your such an inspiration ❤

Congratulations success shows in many forms and ive been watching you since America's Next Top model days and you motivate me in so many ways, I love your videos and you in general. Your personality mesh so well with your name, continue your strive for even greater things. I'll always be watching as you inspire us all.

This place is amazing! You've done so well in showing step by step process and achieving your goals! Would you be able to do another video on generalised costs of renovating in Japan? It would be great to understand the feasibility of the project x

I already knew Sundai was gonna be a favorite for me the confirmation was randomly dropping Juvenile 😂 we luv it here 😊

Talk about homes sweet home! Congratulations on completing this amazing renovation. Like I said before the team is great and made a beautiful upgrade to the space. Can wait to see the fully furnished house 🥳🥳🥳

Your message at the end got a girl getting chills and emotional! You sound so wise. I found your channel about a year ago and ive been hooked. I love the energy you put out there Sundai! Blessings to you girly! Sending love from CA! Cant wait for next Sunday, Sundai. ♥️

OMG I AM SO HAPPY EVERYTHING IS BASICALLY DONE💙💙💙. BLUE BAMBOO LOOKS SO GOOD! CONGRATS 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Today is my birthday so this video feels like a bday present AND its the actual day of my birth SUNDAY! I find it hilarious when you were talking about the doors cause I basically had flashbacks from a few months ago. In my house i basically had the same problem as you. Its an older house from the 1800's (theyre short and small i may have to change the size of frames all together idk yet) cause these doors is expensive or hard to find 😅. Anywho thank you so much for vid and all the work and effort you put into everything! Maybe one day i can send you the finish product of my reno project! I will def be taking the advice for asking god to help him so he can help me! (your advice and messages are just so wholesome 😌) 🎉🎉🎉

We love Yasu, so sad we aren’t getting more Yasu content!

Sundai! Thank you! Thank you for letting so many of us see what all of this looks like, it helps us to better imagine it for ourselves. Thank you for your excellence and consistency with filming and releasing these videos, you are so professional. Thank you for being so vulnerable with us about your life and process. And thank you for deciding to live your dreams. I mean this deeply. I appreciate you.

Your end message is what I needed to hear today. You’re a blessing and I’m so happy for you !!! 🩵

The doors slamming was sooo funny 😂😂

This already the confirmation we need fr sundai. We gotta meet god half way through if we even wanna be in the lane to receive blessings. If we want it then we gotta do the work to get it. Faith without work is dead.

I'm trying not to bawl while watching this!!! I've watched you for the past few years and its been amazing to watch you grow. You did such a great job on this, you must be so proud!! I definitely plan to book a stay when I get to visit Japan for the first time.

Loved seeing the final product! That ladder makes me hella nervous but I'm sure others will appreciate the hideout spot.

“I had to pick up an extra shift at the strip club.” 😂😂😂 I absolutely love your personality. You keep me genuinely laughing . I’m also very much loving this series.Keep being you Sundai please don’t ever change ❤

The house looks amazing. Congrats! That hard work really paid off. I discovered your channel through a Facebook Tokyo group, and I must say I am heavily inspired. I have been contemplating moving to Japan. The older I get, the more I realize there is so much I have not done, and visiting Japan is one of them. I absolutely love the culture.

17:42....I'm speechless. You're such an inspiration, Sunday.

I've been watching you for a while. Its really satisfying to see you accomplishing anything you put your mind to Sundai. Keep pushing, I'm rooting for you 🥰

So excited! I feel spoiled with so much Sundai this week 😊 The Blue Bamboo looks SO good girl !!

I'm so proud of you sis! Always so positive, produtive and inspirational. Thank you for all you do.

A Sunday rest day and a Sundai vlog

Those last few minutes before the end of the video spoke VOLUMES to me like wow you’re such an inspiration thank you for the insightful talk I’m wishing you all the best in your life 🫶

I loved this whole video but that message🎉🎉 I don't have the money or skill for two projects I have in mind but I'm researching and pinning ideas😊 I'll eventually do it but prep matters!

One word “Triumph” 💛👏🏿🤝 and your victory is well deserved... very inspirational

I am so so so happy for you. Everything was truly aligned for this project. Seeing your growth and transparency is so inspiring. It turned out beautiful and seeing your vision come to life is amazing. I love to see it Sunday 💓🫶🏽

BRO!!! The place looks AMAZING!!! 🥰😍🙌🏽✨💜 I’d love to stay there one day if you use The Blue Bamboo for Airbnb! I also love the Douglas cameo! 🤣 Too cute!!!

YOU DID AN AMAZING JOB BRINGING YOUR VISION TO FRUITION 💯

Congratulations Sundai! So proud of and inspired by you! I’m adding a stay at The Blue Bamboo (and a coffee date with you aka my bestie/cousin in my head 🤣) to my vision board 🔥✨

I am so happy to see the final product of your dream home come together! You really did that Sundai and you are as always such an inspiration ❤

The house is so lovely it was nice seeing Douglas , I love your message about being in the position to receive!

So proud of you! Can't wait to see you furnish and decorate the Blue Bamboo! You always make me want to work hard!! ❤

Yay!!! Cool house & cool video Sundai!!! 😊

So freaking proud of you sis! You did it! Truly an inspiration! Congrats love! God Bless!❤

Hi Sundai this inspired me to renovate me Japanese home 😊

So proud of you! Great job!

Looks amazing!❤

So proud of you!! You’ve been inspiring me since I first followed you (probably almost 5 years ago now, or more) and it’s so fun watching your journey 🤩

So excited for you and can’t wait to stay here one day!

This looks so good ❤
