In the south of Japan lies the country's most active volcano. With hundreds, if not thousands of eruptions per year, it is a place often covered in volcanic ash, and smoke. But amazingly people choose to live there. But why would someone choose to live on an active volcano? This, is their story. Welcome to Sakurajima in Kagoshima, Japan.

Thank you so much to the notification squad, and to the supporters that made this project possible. I have wanted to share this story for some time. Want to see more of the area? Go check out the first Ep. of Journey Across Japan 3 by @AbroadinJapan ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-T-rIWP1icf4.html *But the real question is... would YOU live on an active volcano? Let me know in the comments below! Let's get some discussions going!* Next week we are looking at what it was like to live on an active volcano for a week! Shot a behind the scenes of the entire thing.... ps... don't forget about the new channel! *Tokyo Lens Explore!!* See you all again, real soon~

@KHainstock88 3 года назад

That's a hard no from me, the prospect of losing everything I have when that bad boy erupts is too much (see also: flood plains, tornado alley, or anywhere that experiences hurricanes). I have a crazy amount of respect for the people that do, and I'm lucky to have a choice otherwise, but no thank you!

@Dairski 3 года назад

Well they did mention the lava moved slow, I think it would be interesting living there for a week or so. Curious were there any teens around or just elementary? Can not wait for the next vid seeing your experience and thoughts.

@patrycjawrobel5444 3 года назад

I am honestly surprised how peaceful are all the people living on this island. They just taking care of the ashes and carrying with their lives. And surprisingly, despite being constantly polluted with the volcano ashes they are still living up to their 80, 90 or even more?!

@AbroadinJapan 3 года назад

Seriously mate, this was an incredible tv worthy documentary. The people, the scenery, the story - none of this is a normal situation but the locals make it work surprisingly well. Glad the flight over Sakurajima led you to go back and produce this amazing documentary!

@Watashiwapitadesu 3 года назад

It's nice to see that both of your channels influence and affect each other in what can only be described in positive and great ways! Your videos and documentary style videos (like the one about Fukushima) are also truly wonderful and interesting to watch. I'm also a great fan of your other channel with the more short-form, experimental videos. Keep up the great work!

Thank you for taking the time to share what daily life is like here. I was lucky enough to explore this amazing place just before the pandemic turned the world upside down, and was left in awe by the volcanic landscape and activity. It’s strange, but I felt safe there too ... even watching an eruption from the observatory a few km away from the crater. And the cats ... I’ve never quite got over the sight of the stray cats sitting in the volcanic ash by the side of the road there. Happy to know they are cared for

My husband is from the Kagoshima area (small town called Ichiki-Kushikino) and went to elementary school in Kagoshima city. He said walking to and from school his all white school uniform would turn grey. He also said that rain was the worst because everything would get so messy. Next time you go back to Sakurajima, you should go to an onsen there. The water is usually a cloudy grey because there is so much sulfur and minerals in the water from the volcano. If you have any acne it clears up within a couple of days due to the sulfur. Also, there’s an awesome pottery shop (村山陶芸) there that uses the ash in the clay, called yougan yaki (溶岩焼). They make some really beautiful pieces.

@NoName_emaNoN 2 года назад

"Took a literal team to translate" 😆 I'm working on my Japanese listening skills and for sure was understanding one to four words out of every 20 at my current level.The island is so beautiful, lush, and peaceful but I don't know that I could live with dealing with the ash on a daily basis. Do the islanders develop breathing related issues and diseases due to proximity? The adaptability of human nature where people do get used to living with familiar danger. Here in the US it's Tornado alley, earthquakes, south coast flooding, avalanches/landslides, etc. When disaster strikes you deal, pick yourself up, dust off, and move on either where you were or in a new location. Will be watching this a few more times to take in all the fantastic information and stories. 💜✌🐦

Since I have asthma and I already feel a major difference whenever I'm in- or outside the city, or up in the mountains. As beautiful as Sakurajima is, it seems like it is not the right place for people with breathing conditions due to all the ash. Did it affect you in any kind of way?
