Lafcadio Hearn was an Irish Greek writer. Famous for translating ancient Japanese and introducing Japanese culture to the West. Most famous for his ghost stories based on ancient Japanese.

I stayed in Matsue in 2019 and absolutely loved it. They had some super good offers for foreign tourists, with a dirt cheap local bus/rail/coupon pass, lowered entrance fees all across the city, and super nice english-speaking tour guides at the castle. Plus there's lots to see in the vicinity like Yuushien garden, Izumo taisha or the Adachi art museum. Highly recommended if you want to see a different side of Japan than just doing the Tokyo-Osaka-Hiroshima-Kyoto loop.

I am a total fan of Walking Tours - and these are always my favorite. This is most definitely a place I would love to visit. My best to you both.

Wonderful walking tour of the city and the castle was so beautiful! If there are any former residents still hanging around, I can almost picture them peering out of the upper stories of the castle and wondering about how the view has changed since their time. 🎎

I agree that walking from your hotel to your main point of interest is the way to go, because of all the unexpected finds along the way. While it is exhausting, whenever I have visited Japan, whether with my husband or with my daughter, we walk and walk so much. Thank you for your informative walking video. It’s inspired me to video more, more often.

I am thankful for taking the walk in these old residences. They compliment the surrounding natural scenery.

I am glad that you guys liked Imagine Coffee as much as I did.

Lovely video ❤

Shinichi, Covid is a monster. I'm 64 and I wasn't super sick while I had it, after 5 vaccinations, but it messed with my thyroid which messed with my heart and even my back hurts now. It really did a number on me. They're all problems that can be fixed though so I'm grateful for that. I hope you feel completely well very soon and thank you for pushing through so we can travel with you and Satoshi. Love and thanks to you both! 💜

Such an interesting place. I too love Lafcadio Hearn and have read his Japanese Ghost Stories. I am looking forward to the Tabieats episode. Shinichi please take better acre of yourself.

Love this video thanks for sharing this with us take care stay safe 👍😚💞💐🤩🥰😘👌😌❤️😘

My daughter lives in Masuda and has been to many of these places. So good to see them in person with you!

Wonderful as always! And now hungry as always! To bring your health back: -Drink lots of moso soup everyday, some chicken soup too -Fresh ground Shoga with honey (tea) when you wake up and just before going to bed -Eat lots of umeboshi, onigiri, in teas, sides with meals and on their own -Seafood soups with lots of dark green vegetables -A little of your favorite beef and pork dishes with lots and lots of garlic & ginger -lots & lots of water (plain & teas) -pickled vegitables Look at what farmers and fisherman eat... Lots of deep breathing and movement. Taichi is very good Look beyond the fog. Get your mind out of the present. Do complete streaching exercises every morning and night. Head to toes. Every joint. Always breath slowly. No expectations on when you'll get better, just make each day as best you can for that day. 🙏 be one with the wind, earth and sea... Breath... 😊 🙏 💞💞💞💞💞

I love this so much!! 💕

Some of the bridges are so low that the passengers need to duck. The covers collapse so it can get under. Close to the samurai residence is a soba restaurant that was a samurai house

*If you love Japanese Culture, I'm sure that you will like my music! 😉*

Thank you for sharing your beautiful travels! I love watching your adventures. Winter is here in upstate New York. We have snow already and it's really cold. Safe travels you two!

Fantastic....

It's so interesting that both Y's Kitchen and Y's burger are both good :D I guess there are lots of good chefs whose names start with Y :D

Was that a flying fish at 51:24?

be careful with your long walks, especially things like stairs! long covid can also mess up your respiratory system; there are people who used to be athletes who get winded just going up stairs after getting covid. loved the video, and looking forward to seeing more! take care of yourselves!

I really really really love your videos

Good Morning Shinichi

At 19:43 AHHH That's my friend's bakery! Sad that you didn't go in :( But it was nice to see so much of Matsue! People there really are as friendly as you say! It's a lovely city. Also...I love shijimi! Especially shijimi miso soup!

Hello Shinichi, what is the easiest way to visit Matsumae castle from Hakodate? I am going to Japan on May 02, hope to see beautiful cherry blossom

❤️

Shinichi, you may want to wear 2 shirts, 1 over another so you can peel off one if you get too hot!

Seemed like you were walking through an abandoned city at certain parts because there were no other people around and no cars driving

When you eat a whole fish like that, do you eat the bones too? Or do you have to pick them out?

Do you deliver to Montreal Canada?
