Sharla Talks About Her Top 5 Moments On Abroad in Japan's "Journey Across Japan"

hey guys welcome back to the Tokyo creative Channel I'm Charlotte not Emma I'll be your host today I'm actually going to be telling you guys my five favorite moments from the trip so far from the journey across Japan trip I've been very lucky to have been invited to join Chris on his trip I've been here for almost a month now that's crazy it's been an action-packed month we've been all over the Japan Sea coast we've seen lots of places we're not done yet we still have about two weeks to go but I'm going to tell you guys my top five memories from the trip so far all right I'm gonna do this in order I'm going to tell you my fifth favorite memory working all the way up to my ultimate favorite memory so far so probably number five would be the monkey park I was really impressed with the monkey park I thought it was gonna be really touristy I thought the monkeys might be in cages or something like that but they were they were just free to roam around I really loved how they just walked by you they weren't scared of humans at all they were just really chill and they were walking around the park like I don't know it felt very natural and not like a big setup thing like is there anything the baby monkeys were so cute as well I got a really cute shot of the baby and you were able to feed them that was nice as well I really recommend the monkey part it sounds like it would be a really tricky thing but it was nice number four is also a memory from Kyoto this was actually at fushimi inari which I've been to twice now it's probably the number one spot that everybody goes to in Kyoto which means there are lots of tourists there all the time but even so I would still recommend that you go there because it's beautiful it's quite the experience so the first time I went I hiked all the way up through the gates all the way to the top of the mountain in the daytime but this time on this trip I went at night it won't pitch black and the whole shrine area is just dimly lit it's not completely dark but it's dimly lit it's really creepy it's got a really creepy vibe to it just picture a Shinto shrine in the dark with some glowing lanterns you're on a mountain very like horror movie-esque which i love i love horror films basically all i watch and it was really cool to be in that situation however i was with two friends i think if I went alone I might not be able to handle it I might have been a little too freaked out but because I was a friend it was just perfect unfortunately the mountain was closed off and we couldn't go all the way up which I really wanted to do but I did get a really good feel for what the show is like at night time and I can definitely recommend it to you guys I really enjoyed it all right number three is actually something that happened just yesterday we had stopped filming for the day we ended up on a beach here in Matsuyama and the sunset was it was breathtaking it was so good but it's not the best sunset I've ever seen I'll be talking about that one later on but it was so good it was so nice we were just chilling on the beach got some ice cream from a local famous ice cream shop and we're just relaxing on the beach into sunset listening to music I think that would be yeah that was that's easily my favorite favorite memory number two you are getting up to my favorite one so this is really high up there on the list I spent the night in Osaka drinking in the streets and my favorite part of the night was when we decided to approach some strangers and ask them to teach us all talk up and I'm really nervous about going up to strangers and talking to them and asking them if they want to get in my videos and stuff so I don't do it too often but I'm really glad we did in Osaka because a group of people that we ended up talking to they were university students they were super chill they were really excited to get to know us and teach us to vault up a bed we just kind of stopped there for a while drinking with them outside they taught us about Osaka and they gave us some recommendations for places to go it was a really cool experience it kind of gave me the courage to do it more that rest of the night we we drank quite a bit but not too much we didn't get sick it was a nice level of alcohol maybe we went to karaoke we had some really delicious food and the views and all clapping you guys at nighttime if you're a photographer even if you're not a photographer you may be stuck taking photos as long as you have like an iPhone you could take some really really nice night photos of the streets in Osaka Chris got a really cool and I'll insert it here he's been promoting it any chance he gets oh I'm sure he'll be really excited that I'm showing it to you guys now go find it on Instagram and like it well he'll be very happy it'll brag about it for months but Chris took this really cool photo in an alleyway you can get lots of nice shots like this really easily all right my number one memory from the trip and I know for sure that nothing that will happen after today we'll talk this this is probably one of the best memories of my entire life mean Chris cycled the Shema Nami Kaito and when we got to the end the last bridge the major bridge that's like four kilometers long gorgeous bridge we got there right as the Sun was setting insert footage of the best sets that you will ever see in your entire life and I like on top of those views which were ridiculous we both just felt really wish that we had made it to the end of she Minami Kaito we had actually done the cycle it was hard our legs hurt a lot they still hurt today but I felt yeah I felt really proud of myself that I made it and that was like our reward for trying so hard now when people ask me one thing that they should do when they come to Japan I can say with confidence you should cycle the she Minami Taito if you can't cycle for whatever reason you don't want to cycle go there in a car walk it just go there and enjoy the view it was so good you guys I'm sure this footage doesn't do it justice it's really something that you need to see in person so this is me telling you go there you will not regret it save up money and make the extra trip down to the area don't just stay in Tokyo if you come to Japan make the extra trip down to the Shema Nani Kaito and do it you will fake me and then come over to my channel and let me know how it was because I know he will alright guys those are my top five moments from the journey across Japan trip so far we've still got two weeks left so there will probably be some more wonderful moments after this but I hope you guys enjoyed this recap so far and thanks for watching [Music] [Music] [Music]
