Iwate Swan 22: Snow Country

Welcome to the winter wonderland of northern Japan!

Now that I am back in Iwate, I have decided to make a video showing just how cold it has been here. As you can see, there is quite a lot of snow. It is certainly so much different from the winter I experienced in Tokyo 2 years ago. While it is a pain driving on the ice, everything looks really pretty.

Also in this episode, I am on the hunt for a thank you card for some Christmas presents my girlfriend's parents got me. This allowed me to film around town and give you a (very cold) first hand look at winter in Iwate. I also made a stop to a nearby restaurant... see where in the video!

Rupert returns in the next video, so until then I hope everyone is staying warm. See you next time!

Rodger Swan isn't dead!, Just press play and get Inspired to travel all over the world!!!. He's still watching over us!.

It breaks my heart at the end when he said "See you next time". Rodgerswan was one of the only J-Vloggers that every video was positive and made me want to go to Japan. Rodger did more in one year the I have done in my entire life. I don't even know him yet that makes me feel survivors guilt. R.I.P. Rodger. You will be missed.
