UNE THAÏLANDAISE M’EMMÈNE AU JAPON (le ski était une catastrophe 😭)

The video documents a trip to Japan, focusing on culinary experiences and various attractions in Osaka and Kyoto, as well as a skiing adventure. The journey begins with a 6-hour flight from Thailand to Osaka, arriving at 8 AM. Upon arrival in Osaka, the travelers, accompanied by Iwa and Lily's mother, head to their hotel. They decide to grab a hot bottled coffee to stay energized until check-in at 3 PM. They take a "limousine" to the hotel, which turns out to be a large bus with extra seats, humorously referred to as a "big limousine." Their first meal in Japan is Shabu-shabu, which they find delicious. They then explore Dotonbori, Osaka's most touristy street, known for its vibrant atmosphere and crab decorations. They pose for photos at a famous spot, remarking on Osaka's stylish vibe. The hotel, though small, is comfortable and well-located, featuring traditional Japanese toilets. The next day, the focus remains on food, starting with a visit to a large market selling seafood and fish. They enjoy king crab, salmon sashimi, and scallops, praising the fresh, sweet, and savory flavors. Later, they visit Osaka Castle, admiring its impressive construction on large stones. They are delighted to find cherry blossoms, though not yet in full bloom, and take photos. They encounter a "crazy man from Osaka" and a "crazy man from Thailand," and also participate in a local tradition of stroking a statue's feet for good fortune. They try "happy cake," a sweet treat, and marvel at the unique, somewhat 90s-inspired decorations in Osaka's streets, including "flying ramen." For dinner, they have "Nikou," a tender, flavorful meat dish that melts in the mouth. The day concludes with a view of Osaka by night. The following morning, they embark on a skiing trip, waking up early at 6 AM. Despite initial skepticism about snow, they find a snowy area and prepare for their first skiing experience. The initial attempts are challenging, with one participant falling multiple times, but they persevere, enjoying the beautiful views from the slopes. After skiing, they return to Osaka by train, remarking on the cold weather and the scenic mountain views. Back in Osaka, they enjoy a well-deserved fried beef and rice meal, which they rate highly. The next destination is Universal Studios Japan. Before entering, they joke about a sunburn on one's forehead resembling the Polish flag. Inside, they head straight to the Harry Potter section, trying the famous butterbeer, which is sweet and refreshing. They explore Hogwarts Castle and ride attractions, finding them very impressive. They also visit other areas of the park, including a shark-themed attraction and Yoshi's Adventure. They purchase souvenirs, including a small dog-shaped hat. That evening, they return to the Harry Potter area, which is even more beautiful at night. Back at the hotel, they try Harry Potter-themed candies, including "Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans," which feature unusual flavors like vomit, earwax, and rotten egg. They also try exploding chocolates and mints, finding the chocolates to be more "crackling" than "exploding." The next day, they travel to Kyoto. They visit a temple, despite a light rain, and admire samurai armor and masks. They are surprised to find spicy food in Japan, contrary to their expectations. They also encounter various "Kiki" (a type of doll or souvenir) in different colors. They visit a local temple, enjoying the traditional architecture, cherry blossoms, and the serene atmosphere. They partake in a local tradition of drinking sacred water for good fortune. That evening, they try a cheese pancake, which they find to be a delicious sweet and savory treat. Their journey continues with exploring Osaka's local side, enjoying a quieter atmosphere and picturesque views. They walk through Japan's longest shopping street, trying takoyaki, a local specialty. They demonstrate a technique to cool down the hot takoyaki by breaking it open. They also try "poop candy," which turns out to be a normal, tasty candy. Later, they visit Nara Park, famous for its wild deer. They interact with the polite deer, who bow for food, but are disappointed that all the deer food is sold out. They visit a large temple in Nara, but decide not to queue due to the long wait, opting to admire it from the outside. They also take photos of various manhole covers, which are uniquely designed in each city. They buy souvenirs, including a mini school bag for children and charms for good luck, and discover a macaron vending machine, trying a matcha-flavored macaron. They also purchase a "vitamin" supplement that supposedly makes flatulence smell pleasant. On their last day in Japan, before their 9 PM flight back to Bangkok, they play Mario Kart and visit a large multi-story Don Quijote store. They then visit Chichi, a sacred lion statue believed to swallow bad spirits and exhale good ones. Finally, they head to the airport, reflecting on their trip and thanking the sponsor, Cybergost VPN, for enabling their secure travel and internet access.
