The snow in northern Japan has really been hitting hard these last few weeks - great for the snowboarding though 🏂

Currently working on my next video. Most of the filming is wrapped, just need to edit. Should be out by the end of next week. See ya soon ✌️

New video out now 🎬 this one is a little different as I was out of the country for a few weeks for Christmas. It might not be everyone’s cup of tea but that’s alright!

Hi folks - firstly I wanted to express my gratitude for 10k subscribers. What a milestone! Even if this channel is still very small, I am grateful to everyone for their support so far. 

I’ve been back in the UK for the past few weeks for Christmas and New Year so things are quite busy. In fact, it’s my first Christmas back home in 7 years! 

Anyhow, I am slowly working on my next video, hopefully it’ll be out in the next couple of weeks. Due to being here, the next video may be slightly different to anything I’ve made before (and it’s perfectly okay if anyone doesn’t enjoy it) but it has also given me an opportunity to try something new.

Happy new year! I hope you all go into the new year with ambition, good health and happiness. See ya soon ✌️

New video out now! 🎬 

Feel free to give it a watch if you have some time. This is likely the last video in my mini series about the future of Japanese society (at least for now)

9000 subscribers 🎉 Thank you always to everyone who has taken time out of their days to watch any of my videos. I read all the comments and appreciate all the support 🤝

Recently, I’ve had quite a few people ask me to do a Q&A. I hadn’t considered it before since this channel isn’t really about me, but I realize there are a lot of questions about moving to, working, and living in Japan that I can’t always cover in my videos. If that’s something you’d be interested in, let me know!

Also, I’m currently working on my next video and aiming to have it out by Sunday (though things are pretty busy at the moment). Keep an eye out for it! See you soon ✌️

New video out now! 🎥 Another one that I was heavily debating whether to post or not. I guess I really felt like I had to make this in order to give myself an opportunity to reflect on some thoughts I’ve had recently. Hopefully some of you find this insightful.

8000 subscribers 🎉 it might seem like a small number to many but it seems like a lot to me and I’m grateful to every single one of you who has taken the time to watch my content. 

In between attending a wedding, getting sick and working, I’ve been slowly putting together my next video. It’s been quite a difficult one conceptually just because it’s not something I’ve ever really put into words. I’m aiming to push it out by Sunday (hopefully). See ya soon ✌️

New video out now!  I rewatched this one a few times and wasn’t sure whether I wanted to post it as I think potentially it could be polarising. However, I did my best to present everything as objectively as possible and hopefully it’s a good watch!

I’m currently cooking up my next video (will be out next Thursday or Sunday). 

Apologies that my uploads aren’t weekly (I know some people prefer that) but I like to make sure they are of a decent quality and I wouldn’t want to sacrifice that or risk burning out quickly by churning out content at a faster rate.

Also, we are almost at 7000 subscribers now which is pretty crazy. Thanks for all the support, plenty of the comments I’ve had on recent videos have been really thoughtful and well written, appreciate it always - see ya soon ✌️
