That intro was so cinematic! Actually the whole video is 👏🏼 I think your fortune was the best one 大吉 daikichi (although it was in reverse order so not 100% sure if it holds the same meaning!)
I read it as daikichi as well and I think that is has the same meaning even if it’s in reverse order.
Great video, I loved it! I feel like I learned a lot! Also, I got kind of emotional when you talked about this year, the seasons changing, and embracing the inevitable change! 🥺 Wabi Sabi is definitely a saying we should all try to live by! It makes life far more interesting 😉
I loved this! This is on my bucket list 🙂 I would love to see a full pottery collection sometime! ❤️
It was so nice to see friends having fun together! This has made me look forward to safer times and seeing my friends again 😇
The animal mugs like the panda and the cat were so clever and cute! Also I would’ve literally died for that bread plate and chopstick holders 😂
I enjoyed this video so much I could cry! I felt so joyful watching you guys experience this all together. Thank you for taking us along with you! btw your friends all seem so lovely
This video was absolutely wonderful! I’m always sharing with my bf that I love your videos & now I definitely want to go Japan! Such a beautiful place!
Keep on being awesome! 💛
Wow, all of that pottery is beautiful! Watching your videos is slowly making me fall more in love with the beautiful pieces of art. Thank you for taking us along these adventures and sharing your love of pottery!
My husbands dream is to go to Japan. Your videos convinced me I need to go and when we do we are going during Autumn! So stunning
is it just me or are a lot of vlog about Japan super relaxing to watch.☺it must be truly a dream waking u to these beautiful landscapes every day you so lucky miss her.atlas.
Totally agree ✨ super relaxing and beautiful!
Such a beautiful video! This is definitely on my list for the next time I’m in Japan 😊 all of the pottery you showed was incredible
Caitlin please don’t ever stop doing these they are amazing. I love seeing things through your lens
You got daikichi! The best fortune! Haha. I loved all the. pottery! My dream is to have a kitchen full of only that here. Come to “kitchen street” in Tokyo if you get a chance to visit!
This was the most amazing video I’ve ever seen on YouTube, it sums up all I love about Japan: nature, culture, food, atmosphere, people and pottery. Thank you for this and we NEED to see an “unboxing” video of the potteries you got!
you made me love ceramics even more! i cannot wait for the day that i go on a trip to buy my own :’)
Your videos just keep getting better and better! Aside from the stunning visuals I also want to take the time and appreciate your narration and the amount of research that must have gone with it. I learned a lot from this one video. I like that it’s informative and at the same time shows us your personality, how you view friendships, and how you cherish memories. I can’t get enough of it. Great job!
Wow! I didn’t know that I needed Japanese pottery in my life…but now I do ❤️
Your vlogs make me so emotional!! They’re always so thoughtful and beautiful, what a dream to visit Hagi one day!
This is a really beautiful video! It’s the second of yours that I’ve watched, I watched the one introducing your modern Japanese home.
And I have learned a lot about pottery recently because I have a good friend here in Germany who is a wood-firing ceramic artist and he is very influenced by the ancient Japanese traditions including Wabisabi (if I got the word right?). No two pieces are alike, and if the shape is uneven that’s all the more valuable… Coming out of a wood fire kiln you never know what things will look like, exactly what color the glaze it will turn out etc. It really is a fascinating art! And I sat here watching this video drinking tea out of a cup that a Slovenian friend made this fall in one of his wood firing kilns, poured from a teapot that another ceramic artist woman made. Very fitting!
By the way, the special kiln that the man in one shop mentioned, which is built onto a hill and takes a lot of wood… that’s called a dragon kiln and is really something special. There are only a couple in the world, as I understand it. 💜
Also the park and restaurant that you went to are very special, just beautiful! Trees and leaves and stones and gardens and food and dishes… And hearing bits of the language… Thank you for sharing this!
This video was so neat! I’ve always enjoyed your little clips you share during your pottery class so seeing you visit shops was fun! I’ll have to save some room in my luggage to get some pottery on my next Japan trip.
