Thank you so much to everyone who waited patiently for this! **HUGE love to the notification squad~**
DID YOU HAVE A FAVORITE SPOT? Let me know below!!

[brandonearle]

Besides all the amazing cinematography you get Norm, Your choice in music is astonishing. Every single video is accompanied by amazing music. It always feels so fantastical and beautiful and makes me fall in love with Japan even more.

[RobbC.]

Norm: Your adventures are creating a lot of new "Want to Go" pins in my Google-Maps list. I'll need several lifetimes to get through them all. Thanks for your great efforts, wonderful production skills and infectious enthusiasm. Great job mate, great job...

I love this series because it showcases a part of Japan that the average tourist will never have time to see (unless they are one of those people who goes there every year, and not once or twice). Japan is really beautiful! Thanks for ruining my vacation plans, COVID (but thanks to JAL for refunding my cancelled flight the day I cancelled it).

*HUGE THANKS TO YOUTUBE FOR GLITCHING HARD AND FREEZING THE VIDEO PART WAY THROUGH!!*
I have reached out to support, and they assure me it should be fixed in a day or so~ Would mean the world to me if you came back and gave it a full watch tomorrow!!

Thank you all~

Japan is such a beautiful country, even moreso away from the big "hot spots". I'm happy you are doing such amazing adventures!

[Steve_Hickman]

What never ceases to amaze me about Japan is the ability to be transported from the most cosmopolitan of cities, to landscapes that feel they have been taken straight from a fantasy novel, all in a matter of hours. Truly amazing.

I paused my binge to work on getting settled back in California to take care of my grandfather with Alzheimers again, but now I am back & watching with him. Your content, luckily, is something he can enjoy as well at this time. He doesn't remember plots to movies, but simple things like travel or nature are easy for him to enjoy, so thank you so much. <3

I'm 20 years old with no passport and binge watching Japan travel videos. I wanna experience this in my lifetime

[sebastianmineo]

I love the natural onsen in winter while the snow is falling. Life doesn't get any better than a hot soak on a mountainside, river below, looking at the mountainside across from you.

[lauraboanas]

I didn’t think I could possibly want to get back to Japan more than I already did. But here we are 💖 This was such a wonderful experience, to get to come along for the livestreams and now see this… 😘👌🏻 absolutely fantastic and I genuinely cannot thank you enough. As always, the cinematography and music choices are perfection 😘👌🏻😘👌🏻. My need to return knows no bounds.
I’ve never wanted anything more in my life… and I’m 100% blaming you 😏
Thank you again, so so much 💖💖💖

[winslow]

Really loving the warm energy in this one-- to be expected from a video where a smiling Japanese gentleman invites you to climb his tree!
But truly, Norm's videos just keep getting better and better. The cinematography has always been stunning but the editing in this video feels especially seamless, with this epic momentum, lovely music that matches the sunshine. Wonderful stuff.

[kentishigooka]

I only discovered this channel a few days ago but as someone living in Tokyo that doesn't get to go out and see much of Japan, this channel is truly a treasure. Things I've dreamed of doing and places I've always wanted to see are shown here in an almost dream-like quality and beauty. The rooftops of Tokyo that I have never visited, the green mountains and fields with oceans of clouds I've only ever seen in anime have made me realize how much of Japan I've been missing out on. This has honestly been such a refreshing experience and I hope that someday in the future, I can go and do similar things.

[KirstenReusch]

I've been smiling the entire vid, the happiness, amazement, and wonder is so real. 💜 The week's adventures have pretty much set that this will be my next 3 week trip to Japan once the borders open back up. I'm in the middle of planning the map/route for an epic driving exploration through some of the most beautiful, breathtaking, must see landscapes I've ever beheld. Thank you so much for this adventure.

[indysaur]

You definitely showed us some very beautiful places in Japan during that week, I can't even comprehend how one country can be so beautiful. Thank you so much for having us along. <3

[sofiadeleon]

I would like to be as adventurous as you are. I spend most of the time overthinking and being afraid of living the life I want, while you are out there climbing trees. You and your videos are such an inspiration ✨

[breno.beltrao]

I can't honestly understand why could someone dislike a video like this one. It's so beautifully filmed and edited. Wonderful natural landscapes, he's such a nice guy. Keep up the great work, Tokyo Lens!

[fianorian]

I almost cried at the beauty of those cloud covered scenes. Japanese countryside contains everything a human soul would wish for.
