3 жыл бұрынThis is my Japanese farm homestay experience! I spent the night in an old Japanese farmhouse, and woke up at 4am to harvest soybeans out in the fields! Farmstays are always such a cool experience, recommend you try one if you have the chance🌾

Sharla is a hero. Scared of heights - still goes on a roller coaster. “That dark basement of the abandoned power plant is scary - let’s explore it!”. Needs to wake up at 4 a.m.? Sharla appears fresh and shining with a smile! Compare to Chris who filmed a whole scene about how hard it is for him to wake up for the fish market.

Its produce as it should be. People know the value of fresh picked produce. Its sad that in Australia consumers think a punnet of strawberries that is only harvested 3 months in the year by hand should only cost $2. It shouldnt be cheap. I loved being in Japan and seeing the respect they provide their home gròwn produce.

Awesome. Very educational and it looks like it was well worth the early hour of waking up. I can’t imagine doing such intense manual labor as they do but to add on the fact they didn’t have a harvester vehicle until 20 years ago REALLY makes you appreciate and not take for granted what we have as far as modern harvesting at farms.

After we took the konjac and sushi to a locals chicken farm where he helped us pick shitake and cook them to go with our meal. It was an amazing experience.

I don't know why I imagined a quick glimpse of blushes animated on him as the camera fogged up. ☺️ Had you not said that it was fogging because of the humidity, I would have thought it was intentional for the video. Neat effect to focus on the subject when wishing him well and saying bye-bye. Love your videos and makes me all the more wish to come visit Japan. What's stopping me? (not knowing the language as well as I wished and funds, that's it, oh and pandemic lockdowns currently) You're good at making the viewer feel welcomed and sometimes it's pretty much as close to being there ourselves as can be experienced without actually being there.
