You really experienced quite a lot in your short time there. After visiting Nihon so many times, I recently decided to spend an entire month with CX Kyoto as my base… it was unreal to just take leisurely walks and revisit some temples 3-4 times to photograph different angles. Hope you are able to go back often. Incredible job on your editing. 🤩

truly enjoyed how peaceful kyoto was - hoping ill be able to visit again. thanks Bryan!
Incredible trip Max!! good eats
Great video. I can’t wait to visit. I’m torturing myself watching endless travel vlogs, knowing I won’t be there for another year 🥹. But on a positive note, it gives me plenty of time to save up

I stumbled upon your amazing channel because of this vlog. Although your vlog is 40 minutes long, I finished watching your video because it is so informative and you are very engaging. Thank you for sharing your trip.

thanks so much sara
The yellow lines are from your shutter speed in the camera; it's called banding. Keep your shutter speed at 1/50 or 1/60 to get rid of it + it gives you a more cinematic look! It will also get rid of flickering lights in actions cams and phones etc...

that’s so exciting! 6-7 days in Tokyo, 2-3 days in Kyoto, and 1-2 days in Osaka is good to see all the major sights for a first time trip!

@@themaxmao oh ok cool, thanks for the reply. If you don’t mind me asking, how much should I expect to pay for two weeks in Japan excluding tickets and accommodation?

@@elated_h depends on the type of experiences you're looking to get (definitely ways to do it budget friendly & also going all out). biggest costs were the flight + hotels (as expected)
The yellow bumpy lines show where to safely walk. When you feel the “bumps” under foot you should be aware of something like a driveway,etc.

7 day JR pass (unlimited uses) was ~$240 USD. it's worth it if you're visiting multiple cities in Japan (Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, etc.)
Thank you for coming to our country 😊. Please visit Kyushu Island next time. You can enjoy many types of nice hot springs and delicious food ❤.

the shop was called Gram! took around 30 min to make from scratch - prices depend on the material of the ring
@5:34 i know u filled those with mochi flavored protein powder
Noticed one of the deer videos got edited out👀
