00:00Let's go to the airport!
00:02One, two, three!
00:03Why did you come to Japan?
00:07Hello, excuse me, hello.
00:10Japanese TV, can I interview you?
00:13Where are you from?
00:15Amsterdam.
00:16Amsterdam?
00:17Yes.
00:18Why did you come to Japan?
00:21To visit and explore Japan.
00:23To see the culture and the nature.
00:26To enjoy the nature.
00:27We stay in Tokyo one night.
00:29And tomorrow we go to Yokohama.
00:31And then we go to the port to pick up our camper van.
00:38Camper van.
00:39Caravan? RV?
00:40No, motorhome.
00:41Motorhome.
00:42Motorhome?
00:43It's a caravan.
00:45I don't know.
00:46You know, like a bus, and we make a house inside.
00:50There's a bed, a kitchen.
00:52Mini van.
00:53It's a camping car.
00:54Camping car.
00:56Okay, okay.
00:57With a ship from Holland, from Netherlands.
01:04Two and a half months.
01:06Japan is big.
01:12You also see the normal life, the smaller cities.
01:17You experience more the true Japanese life.
01:20Not the tourist route.
01:23But the true Japanese life.
01:25And that's why.
01:35Nice.
01:36We will enjoy.
01:37We love it.
01:41We can show the camping car.
01:52We got it!
01:58We go to Yokohama to pick up our camper van.
02:06So here we gonna stamp some documents that we...
02:11This is...
02:12They need to stamp...
02:13Contemporary import the car.
02:17I see.
02:19Import for four months.
02:21So...
02:23It's a lot.
02:27Don't have to pay for a hotel for two months.
02:30It makes a lot of sense.
02:52Yes, we wear it.
02:54I hope, I hope, I hope.
02:57Let's go.
02:58Let's go.
02:59Okay.
03:02Look, look.
03:03Donkey, donkey.
03:04It's a big country.
03:07It's arrived.
03:08I see.
03:17Here it comes.
03:19That's it.
03:20It's big.
03:21It's cute.
03:24The partner of the trip.
03:25Here it comes.
03:29We made it.
03:31It's cool.
03:32It's big.
03:33It's big.
03:35It's a 285.
03:37It's big.
03:382.8 meters.
03:39It's about 3 meters long.
03:41It's big, right?
03:42Yes.
03:44The partner of the trip.
03:46Check it out.
03:49It's a Benz.
03:521987.
03:53It's an old car.
03:54It's old.
03:56It's amazing.
03:58Welcome in our house.
04:00Let's see.
04:02Is it remodeled?
04:04It's customized.
04:07This is our house.
04:10This is the bed.
04:12As I told you.
04:13The comfortable bed.
04:15With a lot of blankets.
04:16So we can sleep here.
04:18And we can also sit here and watch a video or something.
04:24They are very particular about it.
04:27It's quite okay.
04:28And this is what we built ourselves.
04:32And it's DIY.
04:38You can see it on the internet.
04:40It's been 10 years.
04:43For sick people to be treated in the military field.
04:48The army.
04:50Survival.
04:53But the inside of the car is in ruins.
04:58Yuu repaired it from scratch.
05:00It's amazing.
05:03And all the electricity, the gas, the water.
05:06Everything we did ourselves.
05:08It was a really long project.
05:10It took 9 months to build it.
05:13Like a baby.
05:19Netherlands license plate.
05:21And we are allowed to drive with this in Japan.
05:24We have the paperwork from the JAF.
05:28The Japanese Auto Association.
05:30The preparation for the trip was perfect.
05:33The next day.
05:36So the first bigger goal is to go to Hokkaido.
05:41Hokkaido?
05:44In winter.
05:45It will be cold.
05:46A lot of snow, I heard.
05:48Hokkaido in winter is really amazing.
05:51I can't believe it.
05:55Let's go to Yukiguri!
06:03Hey!
06:04You, too.
06:05Hi, man.

06:19Yeah.
06:20Hokkaido in winter is really amazing.
06:22I can't believe it.
06:26Let's go.
06:32Even if there are more tomorrows
06:34Even if you are troubled
06:36Run through the middle of the country, Yukiguri
06:38Go forward
06:40Hokkaido on the way back
06:42Isn't it amazing?
06:44I don't know

09:04It's like a ghost town
09:08It's the north
09:14I think it's because so many people
09:16Living in the
09:18North
09:24It's like a mountain
09:26A little bit stronger
09:32The real mountain

13:23Let's go
13:33We want to see the countryside
13:43Isn't it good to see the earth?
13:45Yes, it is
13:47I think everything is earth
13:49Oh, it's Chichibu

14:15Please relax
14:17Let's explore
14:19Let's explore
14:21While camping
14:23Let's take a walk
14:25On the rooftop
14:27We can see a lot of things at the moment
14:29We're heading for north
14:35Oh, it's snowing
14:37I think it's snowing soon
14:39It's snowing
14:41Let's get those snow chains
14:43We need them.
14:47Is this the shopping stuff?
14:49Yeah, I think so.
15:03I have a small...
15:13Get the tire, the wheel off, so we can fit the chain.
15:19It saves a lot of time on the street in the cold.
15:23So this is nice.
15:29Check this one.
15:33Check. They are really good workers.
15:37It's a really difference in other countries, in workshop.
15:41I see a real difference in Japan.
15:44They are more really taking care of everything.
15:47It's really nice to see.
15:50Change the chain.
15:52It's because it's an area like this.
15:54Yeah, that's right.
15:55We need to change the chain.
15:57All right!
16:03How much are those?
16:07How much?
16:11I'll give you 800 yen.
16:13That's cheap!
16:15Isn't it cheap?
16:17Wow.
16:19We are very lucky.
16:21Yeah, that would be amazing.
16:25Thank you very much.
16:33That's a great service.
16:37Wow.
16:41The car and my heart are warmed up.
16:49We are going to play.
16:59Finally, we are going to the snow country, Tohoku.
17:03It's snowing from here.
17:05Isn't it dangerous?
17:07It's dangerous.
17:09It's snowing from the stairs.
17:13It's been 33 days.
17:15What is this place?
17:17It's a plateau.
17:19Gedo Plateau.
17:27To keep them in good condition.
17:29I see.
17:31It's snowing.
17:37Is the chain OK?
17:39What should I do?
17:43It's dangerous.
17:45Wow.
17:47You can't really see it on the camera,
17:49but it was completely white.
17:51It's the same as now.
17:55Let's take a look at the set lights.
17:57What?
17:59Let's take a look at the set lights.
18:01OK.
18:11Really?
18:13Shit.
18:17I have a bad feeling.
18:21It's dangerous.
18:23It's dangerous.
18:25The chain came off.
18:27It's dangerous.
18:29I think it's stuck.
18:31Oh, no.
18:33But it was difficult driving.
18:35That was for your driving.
18:37And then, all of a sudden, I slide.
18:39And then, all of a sudden, I slide.
18:41It's a big problem.
18:43It's a big problem.
18:45It's a big problem.
18:47Apparently, it's not.
18:49Apparently, it's not.
18:51Help me, Kaki!
18:53Help me, Kaki!
18:55Oh, shit.
18:57Oh, shit.
18:59Do you know how to?
19:01No.
19:03We did the Snow Chaser last time.
19:05We did the Snow Chaser last time.
19:09Of course.
19:11I'm going to fight.
19:13I'm going to fight.
19:15I learned about JJJ recently.
19:17I learned about JJJ recently.
19:19I was standing like this in the water.
19:21You can tell, right?
19:23You can tell if I'm looking at it or not.
19:25I was looking at it the whole time.
19:27I was like, who is that?
19:29It was Nino.
19:31What? GGG?
19:33It was Nino.
19:37But it was difficult driving.
19:39How was it for you driving?
19:41And then all of a sudden I slide.
19:43I'm alive.
20:03So first we dig ourselves out.
20:14I'm with you.
20:16Calm down!
20:18We're going to dig ourselves out first.
20:23We can shovel there.
20:25Gear is of course the most important thing.
20:32Well, you have to do something like this.
20:34Put your strength together and dig!
20:40It's tough!
20:42You have to answer to your own work.
20:55Oh, it's gone.
20:57Oh, it's already there.
20:59Can I escape?
21:07Yu, do your best!
21:12Oh, it's gone.
21:18Oh, it's gone.
21:20I'm glad.
21:24I'm glad.
21:28I did it.
21:30I'm glad.
21:32It was a real escape.
21:34It was definitely more courageous than before.
21:42There is hope, there is a valley, there is a bond.
21:49I'm happy.
21:51What is this?
21:53I see.
21:55There was a bit of a bad part earlier.
21:57We were together.
21:59Yu and his friends met at university.
22:01They've been together for a long time.
22:04Together.
22:06We are now together for 17 years.
22:10Travelling in Thailand with a motorbike.
22:14To see more of the normal life, not the touristic highlights.
22:18Then we said, ah, it would be nice to...
22:21Yeah, and then we thought, wow, this is so nice.
22:24We travel with our own car from Holland to Asia.
22:29More practical and more dream-like plans.
22:33And that's why we are doing this.
22:36They are now married.
22:38They got married right away.
22:41They have the same dream.
22:43They have the same dream.
22:46It's wonderful.
22:48His job is a freelancer.
22:50So this will become my job.
22:52It will.
22:54That's fast.
22:57He is a freelancer.
23:01Everything is for the sake of travelling the world.
23:05That's why.
23:08Here is the route.
23:12We start in Holland.
23:15Italy, Greece, Turkey, Iran, Georgia, Armenia, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan.
23:26Drive back.

23:35With this camping car, they have travelled around the world.
23:42All the memories are in this car.
23:46It's amazing.
23:54This car is amazing.
23:56It's amazing.
23:58Amazing.
24:02It's amazing.

24:22And.
24:24Now the adventure starts in Japan.
24:26It's amazing.
24:29Let's go to the second chapter.
24:42We are taking the ferry from Amuri to Hakodate.
24:46And then we are in Hokkaido.
24:49Let's go.
24:53It's a boat trip for a while.
24:58It's amazing.
25:05It's always nice to go on a ferry because it feels like you are going somewhere special and something new.
25:12I'm excited.
25:16We are in Hokkaido.
25:19We arrived.
25:29The journey starts now.
25:45You can drive in Aokusa.
25:53Wild.
25:56Let's go to the northern land.
26:06How far are we going?
26:08We are going to the edge.
26:11It's amazing.
26:12We are going to the edge.
26:14We are going to the edge.
26:16We are going to the edge.
26:21We are going to jump.
26:23It's amazing.
26:34You can eat in Hokkaido.
26:38It's good.
26:39It's good with the tofu.
26:41Yeah.
26:45It's good.
26:48It's good.
26:53It's good.
26:56We always keep in contact.
27:00It's nice.
27:06The friends we met in Urano.
27:08Let's meet them today.
27:13Let's go to Urano.
27:16It's quite far.
27:20It's in the middle.
27:24It's fun just to drive.
27:27The scenery in Hokkaido is also fun.
27:31We are in Urano.
27:37Tie my shoes.
27:40It's better.
27:42Alright.
27:43He said I have to work during the day.
27:45Let's meet in the evening.
27:47What will he do with Mr.Takaaki?
27:53Mr.Takaaki is coming.
28:02Mr.Takaaki?
28:12He looks like Mr.Kawano.
28:15Can you see him?
28:19Hurry up.
28:23What will you do in Urano?
28:26I want to talk to you.
28:28Are you listening?
28:29Yes.
28:30Did you tell him?
28:37Excuse me.
28:44Mr.Takaaki from Urano.
28:46I didn't know him.
28:48He will take us to Urano.
28:54It's a hot spring.
28:56Is it a hot spring?
28:58It's nice.
29:00It's minus 9 degrees.
29:02It's getting warm.
29:07Why did you choose this place?
29:12I travel as a backpacker.
29:15Is that so?
29:16I take care of many people in many places.
29:19I have no reason to refuse.
29:22It's a reward for the trip.
29:27It's so nice that you are driving.
29:30I was crazy with our car to drive this.
29:34He is good at driving.
29:36I can't drive in my hometown.
29:38It's hard to drive.
29:40It's snowing.
29:42It's full of snow.
29:45He is driving slowly.
29:47It's a mountain road.
29:52It takes an hour.
29:58Finally, he stopped.
30:03I didn't bring my boots.
30:07Is there a hot spring here?
30:09Yes, there is.
30:11Let's walk for 3 minutes.
30:17I was surprised.
30:20Don't say that.
30:22Quick.
30:24Don't say it.
30:27It's very hot.
30:31It's a hot spring from the top of the mountain.
30:34Don't push me.
30:36It's too hot.
30:40When I went to Sadogashima when I was young, it was very cold.
30:45It's like a hot spring.
30:47Yes, it is.
30:49It's like a hot spring in the middle of winter.
30:59Is there a hot spring here?
31:01There is.
31:03It's true.
31:05It's true.
31:08It takes 3 minutes.
31:10It's a cliff.
31:14It's dangerous.
31:16It's a cliff.
31:18Be careful.
31:20It's a cliff on the right.
31:22Be careful.
31:24It's dangerous.
31:27Are you okay?
31:29It's an adventure.
31:32It's dangerous.
31:34It's amazing.
31:36It's dangerous.
