Better lay off that fried food stuff the oil is bad for you
Save your rupees 🎉
Thanks! For all the entertainment you provide you're such an inspiration and because of you I am now in Thailand lol
I started following you yet have never taken a flight prior then in 2017 I finally did for work just a short trip and later a couple times more then on Monday I flew from Toronto to Vancouver and then Vancouver to Bangkok which was 17 hours lol I wasn't prepared for the journey nonetheless I made it and tomorrow I'm off to Hua Hin 😊
Thanks Gabriel you truly are an inspiration!
Come on gabe you need something hot for breakfast 🍳
Vancouver island beers watching you Gabe 😊
✌💙😎
You will be in India in a few months again. So why even bother exchanging their money when you will need it again? Especially at 30% loss.
Oh my goodness you walked by so much good stuff
I think the staircase picture is San Salvador Brasil
South Korea was beatiful and Japan seams to be that to! Gabriel!😊👍🤝🇸🇪
I love those old school 🏫 Toyota cars 🚗. Bring on the neon lights and lots of sushi 🍣 😊
Fish and chips with mozzarella sticks. A southern Japanese tradition. 👍🏻
Here's what I usually do for "onward flight tickets". I will edit an old ticket, change the details, dates, and everything else, and show it whenever I get asked. So far, it works for me. Been doing that many times. I don't think they have a way of checking if the flight is for real, unless you are checking in at the same airline.
Cool music in the intro! South Korea seems very affordable?
Use subway from Fukuoka airport.
It’s only 2 stops to the city central from the airport.
wait they make a bacon sandwich with the bacon on the outside????… Thats like SUPERMAN with his underwear on the outside… Hope it tasted good 🙂 Safe Travels Gabriel San..

Nah my dude! You went too far back!
It's 80s and 90s! maybe 70s!
Nissan Cedric. Toyota Crown… these classic models!
You should explore Dazaifu Tenmangu shrine; it's rely close by to Fukuoka
Japan just has that pull, doesn’t it? You can go a dozen times and still feel like you’re only scratching the surface. Love how you capture the small moments that make it unforgettable.
Be careful with bears. Casualties from bear attacks have hit a record high, and more than 10 people have lost their lives this year. There have even been bear sightings in the mountains are of Tokyo.
福岡ですね。
福岡や大分、鹿児島は熊が出没しないので安全です。
広島市は今年、10月までに105回、熊が目撃されています。
東北地方や北海道は、危険です。
so many places where you can do some hiking there…just avoid the places where there are bears
Welcome to Japan.
The clothes Japanese people wear smell bad by fabric softener, and Synthetic laundry detergent, but please enjoy Japan.
I like the way you explore the world. Your approach towards new cultures is very positive. Keep it up and enjoy ❤
Thanks Gabe
👍👍👍
Fukuoka airport has a train into the city at a fraction of a taxi fare and probably faster
5:47 한국은 일본인이 가장 가고싶은 나라 1위라고 합니다. 한국도 일본이 1순위입니다. 日本の方々 韓国を楽しんでいただきありがとうございます。
Don't get any food on your clothes. The bears 🐻 will eat you. They will enjoy a Traveller sandwich
Toyota comfort and they were only built as taxis, lovely car!
I will be interested to see how the prices of things is as you move around Japan. I read a lot about people saying it is more affordable now, but perhaps that is just influencers. Thanks as always for fun content Gabe!
Welcome to Kyushu, I recommend Nagasaki for the beautiful view and rolling hills, Kagoshima for the relaxed vibe and big cool views of a volcano just outside town, Beppu hot springs for the volcanic geysers bubbling out of the ground. Just outside Fukuoka are the Dazaifu temples. Kumamoto has a big famous castle. Fun fact, the region is known as Western Japan rather than southern because the islands extend west.
Totally digging the vibe here
Exchanging Indian currency into Japanese in Japan is not a loss if you ask me.Great vid as always Gabe.
After JAPAN TRIP PLZ back to the SEOUL😊
"Jumping Places" are in Japan in Nagano. Cross-over loading?
Cheap rooms in Japan? Stay in a 24 hr internet cafe. Private room sone even have fridges. Lots of Japanese use these places for cheap alt too hotels.
14:33 the most japanese esthetic
🤩🤩
that Taxi is straight out of a Yakuza movie :). S.Korea is probably the place to be in the 2020s, but Japan will always have that immortal seductiveness. Looking forward to the next hours of adventures.
16:05 at this point it's not Gabriel who goes to Greece, but Greece that stalks Gabriel 😄
