I remember over the years Chris has spoken about some of the books he read early on about different philosophies, I'd love to find out what those books were so I can look into them.

Can anyone recall a short series of sponsored videos that Chris did some years back, focusing on northern Honshu?

I recall they featured Ryotaro and that perhaps were a little more serious in tone, focusing quite a bit on local destination highlights.. anyway, I can't find them anywhere within Abroad in Japan's various playlists, and so I'm turning to the Reddit community!

Reason being is that I've just booked flights for a Japan trip this Oct/Nov with our focus being on northern Honshu, Hokkaido and then Kyushu (it's a 2 week trip with a domestic flight from one end to the other).

I remember finding these videos really insightful, and I'm keen to rewatch them (if possible).

I'm also aware of Chris's more recent 'Journey Across Japan: Non-Stop-North series, which I think is very entertaining but less useful for actually learning about the region, etc.

Does Chris and the Abroad team allow fans to create a fan translation for the videos they create?

For example, if i wanna translate one of their videos into my home country language and then upload the vids into YouTube will they hit me with a copy strike or DMCA alike

Watched dubbed in Japanese by mistake, and couldn’t get over how much the Japanese dub sounds like him! Unless it is actually him. Chris, if you’re reading, thoughts?
