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. 🤩

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

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...

Awesome video Max! I'm going possibly in April / May, how many days do you recommend to stay in Tokyo? I'm wanting to explore Kyoto, Osaka, and Nara as well.

@themaxmao 3 ай бұрын

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?

@themaxmao 3 ай бұрын

@@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)

Hi..been to JPN several times and the last time was Nov 2019..first time to hear that custom made Japnese ring..may I know where..ans how much thank you

@themaxmao 3 ай бұрын

the shop was called Gram! took around 30 min to make from scratch - prices depend on the material of the ring

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.

Max with the pass trail or bus pass youve purchased how much was that and thats really big help ???thanks bro

@themaxmao 2 ай бұрын

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.)
