Japan Travel Vlog: What to Eat and Do in Osaka & Kyoto 🇯🇵

Arigato gozaimasu. A few of the things here. Pocari Sweat, I've had the Oiocha tea, I've had corn soup. Each locker was $9.59 and I was like, oh no, are we gonna need four lockers? But we actually ended up making everything fit into two. It is so crowded. I don't remember it being this crowded the last time I came. We almost messed up real bad, ladies and gentlemen. Look very closely. I didn't know that existed. It is a 40 minute wait at Ichiran, but they let us leave and come back. So we're gonna get a snack. It's shohei again. First famichiki experience. And a santori muscat. It was a dollar for this. It's good. Much better than a mexican pop. Pleasant surprise. Out of five. Five? Already? Soda pop. Oh, that's dangerous. Cause it's so good. I'd rather have a shine muscat juice than this. 5% alcohol. I feel it going down. In true Maya fashion, we just finished eating and we're gonna eat some more. We're gonna go to Kuromon Market, which is like 10 minutes away from Dotonbori. It's emptier here at night time. A lot of things are closed too. But I guess that's why things are discounted. T-shirt. November is so crowded here. We're at the Yomita station going to Kyoto. And then my husband said that this juice is really popular and it's been around for a really long time. There's a lot of fruit. Oh, it's very good and refreshing and not too sweet. I was afraid it would taste like an orange Julius, which is not my favorite, but it doesn't. It just tastes like fresh fruit. Very refreshing. It's some good juice. There's a lot of people here too. Now, onward to Kyoto. Just Japan things. We finally made it to our Kyoto hotel. And for the next two days, we are spending all of our time in Kyoto. But I have been able to get around with an eSIM. And thank you to Aerolo for sponsoring this portion of this video because it just makes traveling so much easier. So rather than getting a pocket Wi-Fi, if you download an eSIM, you literally can just bring your phone around and get connected instantly. So I'm going to show you guys how to do that. Before going to the country that you're going to, you want to download the Aerolo app. And you can see that Aerolo provides easy and affordable connectivity to over 200 countries in the world. It's so much faster and it's a pre-installed eSIM. And it works 100% digitally. It connects to that country's telecom right as you land. So you really don't have to do much and all of the instructions are right there. You don't need to switch SIM cards around. You need to just turn on the Aerolo line that you want to use and then it connects. It also works so much faster than my cell phone provider's international plan. I have compared the two and Aerolo is so much faster. I also love that you can choose how many gigabytes that you want. Or you can even do the unlimited option, which is what I'm doing. But that's because I tend to upload a lot of content and I need a lot more internet use. So you can buy the Aerolo eSIM directly on the app. And make sure to use the link in my description so that you can get a discount. And choose a data plan that works for you. Yeah, so we've just been able to get around using Google Maps. It's been super easy. Public transportation can be confusing here in Japan. Especially when you're trying to find the lines and the signs are sometimes a little ambiguous. But we made it. Good night and see you guys tomorrow. Good morning. It is 7am and we are starting off our day. All the tourist spots are going to be so crowded. So the early bird gets the worm. Or there might be people even earlier than us. It is quite chilly but we're going to try to go up quickly. So a lot of people come out of there and then they turn back around. But we're going to keep going up. There's a Shine Muscat carbonated fruit drink in the vending machine. That sounds really good. So we're going to test it out. I've never had it. It's like Shine Muscat. Well, kind of like soda. We are getting a 7-Eleven pork bun. It is so crowded. There's so many people. I mean, there's so many tourists just like us. People next to us said they waited an hour and a half for the Arabica coffee. But we're both not really coffee drinkers. So I don't know if we would even appreciate the taste of it. And there's one in LA. So we're going to skip it. We found a really popular matcha spot called Hatoya. And I heard that their matcha is really high quality. Matcha lovers love this place. It is 100 yen per person which is about 5 bucks. And it's cash only. For lunch today, we are going to a spot called Burger Revolution. And apparently they won an award. I know it's like, oh, why would we eat burgers in Japan? But I feel like they just do all types of food really well. Is it open? Oh, yes, we are open. Let me show my Our next spot, we actually can't record inside. Because we're going to go to a place called Gear Theater. It is a nonverbal show. But apparently it's hilarious. You have to learn the story without any talking. We're going to have to taxi there because we're running out of time. At the theater. It's just help yourself. That was so cool. I was kind of skeptical of how will I understand this story. But there's miming, there's dancing, there's magic. Really cool talents. It was a great entertaining hour and a half. Leave it to the Japanese to make you reflect on life and in a heartbreak. No spoilers. And I got chosen to choose one of the cards. I was chosen, so cool. Just opened a month ago. There are so many team loves in Japan. We wanted to try the newest one. I have no idea what to expect. But I don't want to show you guys too much in case you go. You should be surprised. But I'll show you a little bit. I think it's a cool experience. But after a while, a lot of the things start to look the same. But for dinner, we're having ramen again. My husband planned the itinerary. But this restaurant, apparently the owners have a Michelin restaurant. And it's a French restaurant. But then they opened this noodle bar. It's inside this Good Nature Hotel in Kyoto. This is a really popular shopping area. High quality. But I'm so full. If we don't eat ramen for the rest of the trip, I'll be okay. Good morning. I know it looks like nighttime. But it is 6.15 in the morning. And we're going to Kiyomizu-dera. And in our hotel elevator, there are already 2 different groups of people who are in their rain jackets, ready to go at 6am. Last night, we took an Uber. And it was less than a mile. And it was $13. Public transportation definitely is the way to go. I heard the view is beautiful. And it's also kind of like a hike slash nature walk. It is all uphill from here. It's like a 12-minute uphill walk. It's beautiful. Yeah, it is. We got here at like 7am. And I think that's a good time because we were able to take some photos without any people in it. But this has been our Kyoto and Osaka vlog. Osaka or Kyoto. Right now, it's Kyoto. And then Tokyo next. If you like what you see, please like and subscribe. And I'll see you later. Bye!
