Even though it's snowing and cold you make it feel warm and cozy

Not enough videos out there of “How to” or the Winter struggle in places in Japan with snow. This video caught my eye. The thumbnail picture is perfect. Thank you!

It is so nice to read someone say, “I love snow”
All my life I miss it and only hear people say negative things.

Hi Marianne! Just wanna say that your vlog is one of a kind. Ive been watching vlogs like these from different channels (Daily life vlogs in Japan) and how you film and tell your story is really unique. The different angles, wide and zoomed in shots of objects, overlapping sounds, and a lot of cool filming style you can see on movies/documentaries. This compliment is becoming a bit exaggerated but I just want to say KUDOS to your efforts in making this video. Ps another thing that I think what makes it stand out is that it is not faceless and you’re also sharing Nihongo translations every now and then which is suuuuper helpful to people who loves and plans to go to Japan. I am excited and looking forward to you making more contents like this, we appreciate you! And your content!❤🎉

[Edie_Mrigna]

So so happy to have discovered your channel. I love Japan. Thanks for showing us your beautiful countryside. As someone who suffers from anxiety, your content is comforting.♥️

I rarely comment but I just have to thank you for this video. Calming but also made me think about how I could learn from you, enjoy the little things. You seem so genuine or as we say in Icelandic "gæđapappír" (e. Quality Paper) 😊 Also, I love Japan and dream of seeing it someday although doubtful it will come true, so far away and expensive! We don't get much snow, once in a while, but it does freeze and we buy buckets of salt to melt outside stairs and such. I am surprised that Japanese houses aren't more insulated. Icelandic houses are near hurricane proof to keep warm (also our summers don't get that hot and are getting colder, thanks to climate change) but we also have cheap resources for heating them, geothermal, and electricity from hydropower plants. When I lived in Denmark I realised how lucky we are in Iceland when it comes to this. But, many other things here not so good, but no place is perfect I guess 😂 Thank you again, liked and subscribed ❤

Edit to add: Thanks to Netflix I just started getting into K-drama but also chilling Japanese series. Omg!

This video is like a warm hug from an old friend on a cold winter night ❤

[AcidKiwi]

I feel like this was my life even though my life is nothing like this. Thank you for this!

[iamryanne]

Such a peaceful video. Thanks for sharing.

I love seeing how others spend their day in other countries. I love Japan and hope to visit someday.

[derarrdjaradjaa]

i love that kind of videos especially in countryside of Japan, I really want calm live like this, I hope you make more relaxing videos like this cuz i love it 💕💕

[youavang]

Watching you shoveling snow takes me back to when I used to live in Minnesota. In the winter we would get that much snow and it can get extremely cold. I really do not miss getting a lot of work done just to get to work everyday.

[lgmbornschlegl]

I just found your channel. I am going to be in Japan, Hokkaido, to be exact, Sep-Nov and am very excited to experience what this beautiful country offers. Thank you for the wonderful virtual experience.

[joerichards]

Not sure how I came across your videos. So glad I did. You have a beautiful apartment.

[annepicaud]

pay attention not to burn the down part of the upper shelves with your candles! It happened to me and 1/ it ruins them 2/ it could cause a fire😮. Take good care of yourself, thank you for the videos.

[livertine]

I want this weather back so bad. I hate summer. Can't wait for Autumn and Winter to come back and hopefully stay for a long long time.

[iiraingirlii]

I watched the whole video, it was amazing ❤

[elainevankat]

I enjoyed your video! You live in such a beautiful place…and, you sing beautiful too!
