Huge Thanks to NordVPN for always supporting this channel! Check it out here: nordvpn.com/tokyolens -- 30 day money-back guarantee! give em a shot!! and so THIS is what domestic travel inside Japan looks like right now HOW MANY OF YOU HAVE TRIPS BOOKED ALREADY? ---- And Don't forget IM GIVING AWAY A FREE FLIGHT TO JAPAN!! See you all below!

@Japanesestudydreams Год назад

No flight booked, would be nice to plan something for next year.... 🍀🍀 only joking, sorry. seriously i will provably try coming next year. You keep saying you are giving away the bare minimum, but it's not! It's huuuge and it means a lot to me.

@JaniceWithTheTarlovCyst Год назад

Sadly, I don't have any flights booked to Japan. Wouldn't it be nice if someone was giving away a free flight... 😉 I've got spending money!

@snowieflatley7696 Год назад

plan on coming in oct 2025

@Daniel-kf3de Год назад

me and my 2 best friends are currently planning a trip to Japan for August. Their first time in Japan and my second time. We are all super excited!

@Sahara333 Год назад

I have a trip booked to Mexico for the end of the year. Hopefully I get a trip booked to Japan next year, it all depends on my job situation next spring.

@triforcerf321 Год назад

The man holding the sign at the airport saying thanks for boarding the plane was so nice! thank you for uploading another great video and allowing me to live vicariously through your videos while not being able to visit there.

@TokyoLens Год назад

I really loved that moment lol

@ryanmwhetten Год назад

I think it said something like thank you for riding… I’m not that good with kanji but thought it was super sweet too!

@JotaceLIVE Год назад

Yeah, really makes the experience more calming and makes you feel like they really care about you! Doubt any other country does that lmao

@matthewkemp4157 Год назад

I was going to ask what the sign read 😅. So happy you finally got back flying again. 🎉 Watching your uploads gets me very excited to get back to japan 😊 Keep up the good work

@izamito Год назад

Ah so that's what it said. That's so wholesome

@xredgambit Год назад

Just starting the video and at 00:00:12 seconds in and it's just the perfect example of why I want to visit Japan. Seeing a small shrine just tucked away in a small place would be amazing to see. It's possibly an everyday occurrence there, but for America it doesn't happen. Best example I could give that I have seen is in Germany I was on a train ride and just up on the hills are random castles.

@wethermon Год назад

Would be nice if he shows us more of those little shrines. I have a soft spot for those. Specially when they are obviously very well cared for like that one.

@s70driver2005 Год назад

I know right!! I loved just turning down random alleyways and poking my head in all kinds of places when we were visiting there. It's amazing. Definitely made me feel different about the US.

@whitness459 Год назад

Yes, I agree!! The little shrine makes me so happy. Little places that can be missed. It feels so poetic.

@ashleecollett1212 Год назад

Wow - crazy how they are already seeing a massive spike in domestic travel! I love the sign at 4:53, really shows you how considerate Japanese people are with virtually any kind of service :)

@Serriano Год назад

I always thought that the hardest part of visiting Japan was the travelling. The large amount of trains and the big metro maps are scary, but this video showed me that if you take the time it's quite easy. Thanks for showing this.

@LloydSeven Год назад

Glad you are recovering from your accident. Also, you do know that opening the windows and doors to let the mosquitoes out could potentially let more mosquitoes in. Best of luck to you.

@ronzacharias5497 Год назад

I'm so happy to see you back flying Norm. That accident didn't hold you back at all as much as it wanted to! Keep at it!

@kingcorbin5507 Год назад

Same as many it's always been my dream . When I watch footage of Tokyo or anywhere in Japan I get this weird nostalgic feeling almost like I've been there or was meant to be . It makes me feel as if I was born in the wrong time and place

@mewriah Год назад

Me too! Oh my gosh it’s terrible! I will dream about Japan although I’ve never been there and wake up sad :(

@jlutz57 Год назад

Seeing you back at the airport for flight lessons makes me more and more want to take the jump towards getting my pilots license. I love how you tell a story!! Glad you’re back at it Norm!

@tannerlea9721 Год назад

It’s beautiful to see countries welcoming others to see and experience their culture

@kamylinoda113 Год назад

I love how excited you are to fly again! Super glad you've healed up enough to still be able to pursue this dream of yours and I ( and no doubt others as well ) am looking forward to seeing more flight videos again!

@katiko4252 Год назад

Hi Norm! Glad to see you flying again! Such an amazing view from the plane! Love Japan for the attention to detail, it's everywhere ❤

@hannahalyea6401 Год назад

So excited for you to be able to fly again. I was worried for you with the accident, but relieved that you can still chase one of your dreams. Thanks for taking us along with you. As a former flight attendant in the US, once you fly the sky is no longer the limit.

@Xiphcreature Год назад

Really happy to see how well you've recovered since the accident, and it's great to see you flying again. All the best with your recovery :)

@grayedhitherto9305 Год назад

Good to know the rehabilitation is going well and you're able to again 😀 Also, the amount of friendly people you know/encounter never fails to astonish me especially since they're probably people you don't see very often. Just adds more wholesomeness to your already very wholesome videos haha

@ilaiyeet1595 Год назад

Thank you for always making such great content, I only recently subscribed and started watching you and every time I do I try to put the videos in the background but I just end up watching the full videos because of how entertaining they are. I've been trying to learn Japanese for the past year and a half and am hoping to finally be able to go there next July and watching these videos just keep making me more and more excited and motivated to keep learning Japanese for when I will finally be able to go. Please keep making these videos they always make my day better and thank you!

@sophiaisabelle0227 Год назад

It’s great to see Japan’s borders are now open to tourists and foreigners all around the globe. Thanks for sharing useful content with us. Keep up the good work and further enjoy travelling along the way.

@youarehired21 Год назад

It seriously seemed like it was never going to happen. I’m so happy they are open again.

@meganflanagan9017 Год назад

My husband and I will be moving to Japan in December for his job and we are so excited. It was wonderful to see that the borders are actually beginning to reopen as that means our family will eventually be able to visit (sooner rather than later) once we are settled.

@CynariGames Год назад

I hope you and your husband enjoy your life together in Japan!

@Bentears Год назад

so glad you got back up there. Its encouraging to hear your rehab has gone well. Im still rehabing a shoulder. Keep enjoying what you do its a pleasure to watch your enthusiasm and passion for making great content.

@sally-anncharters7077 Год назад

So glad to see you flying again. Cannot imagine how happy you are. Continue healing

@JamesSato Год назад

Thank you for taking the opportunity to share your commute experience in Japan given the "seismic shift" of Japan's border policy. So happy to see you back on the plane and showing us such amazing sights of Japan! Still sending good vibes that your PT goes well and you are able to return to enjoying the shamisen! ❤🗾📸

@jameswilliams3038 Год назад

Also, really glad to see you're able to get back out and get flying again. Accidents and setbacks can be demoralizing (from experience) and it's real inspiring to see how you pushed through and are back at it. It's gotten me headed back onto the right track :)

@TheServeris Год назад

As someone that also had an accident and had to crawl my way back up to normal- you can do it. I believe you can get on track and do what you need to.

@ary5829 Год назад

It’s the mundane things that excite me the most, and you showing the little things in life always makes me so happy. Loved the start of this vid ❤

@xanya6 Год назад

So inspiring to see how you always try new things. So insipiring to see you fly! Really appreciate all the ‘realness’ in all your videos! Great job!

@yoitsash1606 Год назад

How exciting that the borders are finally opening up for Japan! All I could think about as you were walking around the airports is how even when some areas seemed busy, it still seemed less hectic than a lot of the airports I've been to in the states. Glad to see even after a stressful event you've gone through previously, you're still pushing through with your dreams and goals. The flight lessons seem really thrilling. I may not know you personally but seeing you going after your dreams motivates me to work harder towards mine. Also, booo to car mosquitoes. I live near New Orleans and we get rough mosquitos each year lol

@jslayerza1083 Год назад

Japan is so beautiful. Sometimes it feels like a completely different world

@kyra7416 Год назад

Your channel has become my favorite. I don't have a lot of time for RU-vid and rarely comment, but when I have time to watch, I click on you first. You really have a fresh way of showing things. Thank you!

@flyingkiwi4547 Год назад

It's so nice to see things picking up in Japan, I feel like it has been a long time coming. Loved the thank-you sign! It's the small things in life that have a way of bring a little more happiness to the world :D

@jennae7903 Год назад

It's so exciting to see the world slowly healing from the pandemic and Japan opening up for travel again! Also exciting to hear you're healing from your injury as well - hope you're feeling well

@80_referencer6 Год назад

It’s really nice that Japan has opened up its borders, can’t wait to see more vlogs from everyone! 🎉

@rulesindre Год назад

your videos are easily a highlight of my days, i love watching them and see your travels around all of japan. keep up the great work!

@bork0992 Год назад

So excited to start seeing tourism boom again. I’m currently going back and rewatching your older videos and am on the ones just a handful of months pre lockdown. It was a real shock for a moment seeing all the tourist in the backgrounds of the older videos compared to the ones over the last couple years since it’s not something I really thought about before.

@Lavend33r Год назад

I was just thinking this myself! the difference in population and how much we really didn't think about it is wild!

@DividedZone Год назад

I don't know what it is, but those first-person view bits of footage throughout the whole video (especially the small biking section at the beginning) just make me want to get back into learning Japanese! Also, the editing of the scene changes to the beat! Love seeing it! Also, glad to see you're back flying! Hopefully you won't have a mosquito problem while up in the sky!

@greenwichmeanie Год назад

Go for it! I've been trying to learn most of my life but it's been very difficult for me. But we should keep trying!

@tskgamerr8302 Год назад

Great to see your rehab has been going well! Can't wait to see new vlogs from you!

@Hytrophic Год назад

still here, still watching every video you make, its easy to do, you make everything a conversation, with such fantastic story telling, no over embellishing or anything extra. love them, keep em comin ! :D

@elflass5544 Год назад

Fun to see other travel experiences as well as first person flying! And we finally have a definition of the trifecta squad! Even I didn't know what the three things were 😄

@TokyoLens Год назад

its outlined in the NAKASENDO HIKING vid i recommend giving that one a full watch!

@chantaleperron Год назад

@@TokyoLens I will see that right now!😊

@rowantorisade3223 Год назад

I just want to say that I love the way that the Japanese have shrines set up throughout the country. Whether huge, arching spectacles or small, humble shrines on small roads or in the woods, they're really quite fascinating. Whenever I get there, it would be so awesome to make a series of shrine hunting videos :D

@MulinaTheAngelWolf Год назад

! Oooh, yes! They're all so delightful. Pieces of forever.

@steamedvegetables Год назад

Glad to see you’re healing up well, thank you for another great video

@hopgoblen Год назад

Im so happy to see you fly and do what you love

@deividasb Год назад

I've had something similar recently happen to me with the mosquito (at 12:17). I was learning to drive backwards at a parking lot and there were hundreds of mosquitoes breeding and flying around (it was forest area). My dad was outside the car giving me instructions the window was wide open and over a dozen mosquitoes flew in and tried to bite me, but it wasn't too bad... Haha. (Great video- specifically the editing btw)

@BrookBeck Год назад

I had this happen with a wasp on the Highway! I pulled over and had all my doors open screaming at it to leave now haha

@GkSanchez Год назад

Good to see borders opening and hope the Japanese economy will look better soon. Sucks that a lot of us will be unable to visit for a while since for most ppl things are still not looking good economically speaking. Looks like you had fun on your flight, always fun and interesting to watch the plane stuff!

@CallmeTress Год назад

So excited you posted again I loved seeing what it’s like in the airports everything feels so different now but I’m excited that the world can be open again for new adventures ❤

@unclesluggo Год назад

Glad to see you’re doing well, again thanks for taking us in your adventures. Gives me something to look forward to.

@vanitasism Год назад

Can’t wait to return to Japan after almost 5 years next year. Planning a big trip: Hamburg ➡️ Tokyo ➡️ Los Angeles ➡️ New York ➡️ London ➡️ Paris ➡️ Hamburg

@Hoolysegoo Год назад

That's so sad that hotels and such are doubling their prices to try to price gouge for the incoming travelers... I will probably wait for things to even out to go back again. I love seeing your travels in the mean time!

@abnormalization8825 Год назад

Do you think by summer time it’ll go back to normal?

@Tommovdv Год назад

Always enjoy your uploads Norm! Your way of editing and using music is just perfect. Also giving a realistic view of Japan to those of us who haven’t been there yet has been very insightful! Looking forward to your next upload!

@carolinewaghorn5431 Год назад

Great to see you back flying. And thanks for the videos, can't wait to finally get to visit Japan.

@kocokan Год назад

what most foreigners need is "If I can't speak japanese at all, how can I survive traveling there?"

@boigercat Год назад

The first tip should be learn basic Japanese lmao

@TokyoLens Год назад

Ive done about 8 videos on that lol

@Ojisan642 Год назад

All you need to know is sumimasen, gomenasai, wakarimasen, and how to buy train tickets and find your train platform. Everything else is pointing and smiling and bowing.

@raymondlara9239 Год назад

Pocket talk!

@pedro66596 Год назад

super happy to see you get in a plane again also thrilled that the borders are finally open cant wait to visit japan. Great video !!

@Tmobil1227 Год назад

These videos brighten my day, love the music, your attitude and positivity. Great job on the flying also!

@Dreifaltigkeitsberg Год назад

Thank you for sharing the little things not just the tourist stuff that is always fun to watch!

@potreyto Год назад

Good to see you back up in the air!. Enjoyed the video like always.

@kevincmejia Год назад

This is so nice to see, I've been thriving to see Japan open again. Definitely a good feeling watching the video. I see you are getting better after the accident hoping that means that you'll be able to play chamisen again

@claudiapera87 Год назад

The videos you post make me sooooo happy! Thank YOU!

@subscriber8881 Год назад

So excited to see all the flight content again! Glad you're healing up well!

@javidgt8 Год назад

Dude I cannot wait to see longer videos of you flying and hopefully showing more of Japans gorgeous scenery from above! Glad Japan is finally open, hoping to make my first trip next year.

@thomasedwards6641 Год назад

I love all those little shrines you show us also love your tags at the end of the videos.

@Itami95 Год назад

So glad to see you flying again doing something that you love! We often have aviation conversations in our house - my son is an aeronautical engineer (trade based). He works on small planes and loves his job nearly as much as he loves talking about planes. Take care Norm.

@kanadeana6957 Год назад

Glad to know that you are getting better Norm! And slowly coming back to traveling and flying! Thank you for another amazing video! 😊💕

@tonka_bean12 Год назад

Great to see you back up and at the flying lessons, I had ended up taking a break from RU-vid for a while and have been a bit of a lurker before that but just wanted to say I love living vicariously through your videos!

@jasonbingham5296 Год назад

Keep up the great content Norm. Love the enthusiasm in your videos. Seeing your videos sure makes me miss Japan but I will keeping watching to get my fix until I can travel there again

@bidoof22 Год назад

Glad you can travel again! I love these chill video formats.

@thenightwalker99 Год назад

Glad to see you flying again.I felt your excitement from here!

@filip2068 Год назад

Is it only me or is Japan emitting peace and calmness throughout Norms videos? I am binge-watching his channel right now and it gives me a little bit of comfort in a time in my life where everything seems to be pure chaos.

@CMHartman001 Год назад

I'm so happy that you were able to fly again! I almost cried! I really was hoping that you wouldn't have to give up that dream, and I'm overjoyed and relieved that you don't have to. Great video! Thanks for the content

@Ozai75 Год назад

Super glad you were able to fly again, Norm. Know how much you love it and I could imagine how hard it was through your rehab to not do something you loved.

@Corbin4306 Год назад

I swear, just every video feels like an adventure of it's own. It's honestly crazy how cool it is, I'm not even just saying it to be nice it just is incredible. If I were there I'd just never ever get bored again, at least I'd bet on it. I'm always looking forward to more vids and stuff. Also that Pikachu plane, I need to fly in one of those in my life otherwise I'm not complete, it's a must. XDD

@Hallitsija Год назад

Great video again Norm. These flying shots are just so amazing to watch every time

@AdumbrationOfAnAlias Год назад

Glad to hear that you're healing up!

@robertbolk Год назад

Hey man, I've not been hit by a truck, but fell down the stairs (I'm fine, just had concussion). And so many injuries just take their time. I'm so impressed with your drive to show people Japan. As for now I'm just vicariously living through your video's. So many thanks for them. It's awesome

@DSZeroe Год назад

Happy to see you back up in the air!

@izamito Год назад

Good to see you flying again, it has been such an interesting part to see and it's good that the hand healed back to a state that it's possible again. The little camera shot through the scanner was a fun detail as well.

@helenalphabet7832 Год назад

Glad your recovery is going so well and that you can get back in the skies! Thanks for another awesome vid 😊 Looking forward to getting back to Japan in early 2024! Can't wait to explore some of the places you have taken us along to!

@akirebara Год назад

I work at Trader Joe's on weekends as my side hustle and when I get home on Sunday nights, I basically watch your videos while eating dinner. It's become my Sunday night wind-down ritual, also to prepare myself for my main job's Monday morning meetings. So happy your accident didn't stop your flight dreams. Can't wait for you to become an actual pilot, that would be amazing!

@lindsaycordova91 Год назад

So happy that are flying again!! You seem to enjoy it so much. I love that you had a dream, and made it happen. So many people don’t

@job_done Год назад

I've been watching you for ages, I just want to say thank you for all the great content! I'm finally going to Japan at the end of the year for 1 month ✨️

@traciecombs7030 Год назад

This American gal (and tea shop owner) is so grateful for your videos and glimpses into Japan. All of your adventures are so enlightening! Thank you so much for what you do!!

@estebanvinals7789 Год назад

@timcochrane4245 Год назад

Awesome flight Norm! Looks like so much fun 😊

@tammi6771 Год назад

Trying to get caught up on your videos. So glad you are recovering well and are able to fly again. That's great news!

@brendanma2423 Год назад

Very exciting to see the borders open.

@daianaanamaria532 Год назад

The view from the plane was amazing, loving it✨ Glad you're back at it! ♥️

@CassidyMackie Год назад

I have been waiting for this! Thank you for the insight - travel safe!

@m111sss6 Год назад

Thank you for this video, it’s so exciting it’s finally open but also a bit of an unknown!!

@pedroaugustoef Год назад

It is so nice to see that you can now go back to flying, I can see how happy you are. That small shrine in the beginning of the video it seems like an easter egg, like, all this really small shrines scattered all across Japan are meant to be found, I really like that!

@johnanderson2182 Год назад

Man, this brought back some good memories of flight training a few years back. Glad to see you're healing up and back at it!!

@zizianxp Год назад

Does it ever feel weird walking around with your camera everywhere and talking to yourself? It's something I wanted to ask for a long time now because you are so confident all the time. Really great video like always.

@hopefulandwealthy Год назад

I'm loving your new style of editing and filming! You've learned so much Norm. This is awesome.

@LLWW Год назад

Good to see you flying! I'm glad the hand injury seems to have not stopped you. Awesome video

@Endy_Oh Год назад

I haven’t watched your videos in a while I’m going to have to binge them also looks like you’re making good progress on becoming a pilot since I saw your announcement, really glad to see it!

Amazing video, Norm! I have loved seeing your piloting journey!

@Collectonian Год назад

SOOO happy to see that you are able to continue your dream of flying again! I was really worried the accident would mess that up and my heart was hurting for you.
