prep with me to fly to ✧･ﾟ: * JAPAN *:･ﾟ✧ // travel diaries, ep. 0

it's finally here: my brand new travel series taking me all the way to... JAPAN! travelling back in time all the way to january 2020, my friend cassie and i started planning a trip to east asia for the summer, originally intending to travel to china but changing course and landing on japan instead. then, of course, 2020 happened and our trip was postponed indefinitely as we scrambled to get tickets and hotels refunded for the trip we weren't going to be making... fast forward 3 years and we both happened to be taking gap years after our degree, and thus we finally were able to start planning this trip FOR REAL and set the date for the 26th of february, 2023. and that is where this video comes in :') come with me as i frantically plan and prep for this big trip last minute, and begin to make my way to tokyo, via london! featuring plenty of packing and procrastination, some stress-baking, and a very sleep-deprived thea setting off on their biggest adventure yet! i will try my best to keep the rest of this series coming as soon as possible - it's a big one, and i want to do it all justice by making the videos as good as i possibly can for you all (and for me to look back on)! i do have some big life changes coming up very soon so there might be some slight delays here and there, but i will do my best to keep these videos coming and i know y'all will understand ~.~ i hope you're all doing well and staying hydrated! all my love, Thea xx ⭐instagram: @theamarie.g ⭐music: https://www.epidemicsound.com/ https://louiezong.bandcamp.com/music ⭐additional sound effects: https://www.zapsplat.com/ 🌸 about me! how old are you? 23 what are your pronouns? she/they :) how do you pronounce your name? te-ya, with a hard t at the beginning where are you from? i'm originally from norway, but i grew up partly in the uk what are you up to now that you've graduated? i'm currently taking a year out before going into further study next year! what do you edit with? adobe premiere pro why is it thea goes solo? i wanted to make this channel to document my attempts at being an adult and doing things by myself, and along the way trying to put it out there that doing things by yourself doesn't have to be scary :') 🍂 timestamps 0:00 intro 0:21 japan '23 trailer 1:20 one week to go 2:03 2 days to go... 3:11 making (stress-)waffles 4:22 finally packing for japan 7:04 time to leave! 8:07 durham - london 9:21 made it to the hotel at heathrow! 10:40 cassie's here! 10:53 outro #travelvlog #japan #traveldiaries
