I can't believe that things are changing.... But I am excited for what comes next! - Would YOU Stay here? Thank you so much to Yo-chan for being a part of this adventure! And thank you to the amazing crew of supporters who have made these videos possible - HIS IG BELOW *If you are NEW: I hang out in the comments of EVERY new video release for the first while!! So come down and chat!!* The Explore ALWAYS Line will disappear in just a few weeks btw... ALSO: while yochan can’t ship his coffee internationally yet, keep bugging him over on instagram!

Absolutely would stay there. Beautiful looking site, would perhaps be more cost effective to pull the school down and build an Alpine hotel or a traditional Japanese compound than to keep renovating a dilapidated school though. That said everyone is charmed by their own experience and taste.

Yohei's story was one of my favorites. Such a laid back one day at a time lifestyle away from the stress of normal everyday 9-5 life. Sad to hear he may no longer be there but truly happy that his passions have come to fruition and he's moving forward with his goals and aspirations. Good luck on your future endeavors Yohei!

"Said it before, I'll keep saying it" what's going on here I have genuine questions seriously you said about this guy before that he has the right attitude? like on another video about this same man? or in the same comment section? also, what do you mean you will "keep saying it"? are there more videos coming out of this man where you will comment on? and lastly, does this man play a large role in your life or something? I'm genuinely confused about what's going on
@JeffDvrx
@JeffDvrx 7 месяцев назад
@@qdpqbp I said it in previous videos he was a part of, most likely I'll have reason to keep having the same opinion when he shows up again sometime in the future. And no, it's not like he plays a large role in my life or anything, but his general attitude is inspiring to me. I've been stuck in a job I fucking hate for 10 years, as well as in other aspects in life, so what this guy has been doing with his life really is inspiring. I'm actually about to jump ship from my job, and stuff like this played a part in giving me the final push to do so.

This was such a nostalgic bomb for me. I loved the very first video and it cast a spell on me. Often times daydreaming about the lonely man in the mountains, at a school, surrounded by greenery on all sides and a night sky to die for. Roasting coffee, playing music and just cruising along to his own tune. Then you went back and it was just as remembered and kept going back. Yo-chan is an awesome guy and I'm glad you've made such a steadfast friend in him.

Then all of a sudden, that chapter is over, and it's on to the next. It truly goes to show that you should always enjoy life. Taking the time to stop and smell the roses, makes some of the best memories. That's what these videos of the school and Yohei have been.

I only recently found your channel thanks to a friend, and ended up watching many videos, including all the ones about Yo-chan, so for me they are all still very fresh memories. Seeing the title was quite shocking, let alone the video, but thinking about how he has lived there for nearly 10 years, achieved so much, and like he said still can always come back is just amazing! I've often thought of him throughout the weeks, and how awesome it is that he managed to become an expert in coffee and even begin selling it to nearby towns! Personally I am horrible with change, recently a lot has changed in my life aswell and I haven't been great at dealing with it mentally or physically. Hopefully one day I can find my passion like Yo-chan did, and be as open to change! He's inspiring for sure, and I wish him nothing but the best in life. Thank you for showing so many stories throughout your channel, many of which people never would've heard of.

I feel that Yohei can be my best friend seeing he can be both passionate but also laid back when he needs to be. I wish him all the success in the world.

am a few months behind the video schedule ( sry norm) but this definitely is my favorite type of video on this channel. every video u shoot with yochan is really special and just heartwarming. seeing him live his life with so much simplicity and happiness is just beautiful. u said it in the video, he’s living the life we all want to live. and i think thats really inspiring. now i gotta go back and watch the other abandoned school vids u two made 😂

Wow, I absolutely loved this! So much that I had to see it twice! Very interresting to see him again, and his alternative lifestyle. Would be cool to see more from there and him, from time to time.

I'm so impressed by Yohei. The man's passion and entrepreneurship just seem so effortless, when it obviously must be a ton of hard work, because he's just doing what interests and motivates him.

That's so awesome for him! I actually visited this school during a shikoku trip, but unfortunately Yo-chan wasn't there at the time :( Sad to have missed him, but cool to see him doing his thing!!

I find your videos inspiring. I’ve tried to keep a positive mindset, but when I see how you live I understand just how important that mindset is. It doesn’t matter what I do, it matters how I do it. I’ve watched your videos for years and I know I’ll watch them for years more. Thank you.

this series is not even that old and got only like 5 parts but it already feels so nostalgic. i hope there still more videos with him and to the school as well.

Nothing is forever, that is certain. This choked me up. I think Yohei knows he can always come back, and that might have made the transition easier for him. Bittersweet, for sure. Great episode, thank you Norm. ❤️

Glad we got an updated on this! On one hand I feel bad that life took me away from Japan and I will probably not live there but at the same time I am glad I have creators like you to make me see the cool stuff I still wanted to see.

Also, Yo-chan's way of living reminded me of the decision I had to make, after arriving in Japan to work I realised that the people I left back home, mainly my partner, was more important and I took the hard decision to come back. She would've been struggling to come to Japan with work as she had no Japanese language experience and also did not feel comfortable just being supported by me - I don't even know if that would've been possible but if that would've been the path we took I would've tried my best there too. Mainly the long distance would've eaten away at both of us so the hard decision to follow my instinct and feelings took me back and into a new life path.
