Van Build Update & Exploring Osaka Japan - JAPAN GROUP TRIP EP3
Added 2025-03-25 13:19:12 +0000 UTCGood morning everyone! I've got a new Patreon Exclusive video for you today! This is episode 3 of my Japan adventures! However, at the beginning of the video I give you guys a small update on my van build! Let me know what you think of it in the comments!
But in today's Japan adventures, me and a few members of the group decided to take a bullet train to Osaka Japan to explore the vibrant nightlife, tasty street markets, and play around a bit in the surrounding nature! It was such a fun experience and I'm stoked to finally share it with you all here on Patreon!
If you're enjoying this Japan series and traveling with me in person seems like fun, consider joining me on my next group trip to China in October of this year! Here's the trip page: https://trovatrip.com/trip/asia/china/china-with-trent-the-traveler-oct-2025 Check out the full itinerary to see what all I have planned for the trip! If you're one of the first 8 people to reserve your spot, you'll get $200 off the trip price!
But anyway, I hope you all enjoy this video! I'll be filming another patreon exclusive video this weekend as I go camping with some friends. So stay tuned on that!
Have a good week everyone!!

2025-04-07 18:12:37 +0000 UTCThe van wrap is amazing! I found you because of the Japan series (I'm going in November so I've been hunting down Japan YouTube vids like crazy), but once I found your channel, I got totally detoured and have just been binging your videos and day dreaming about van life!

2025-04-01 15:48:10 +0000 UTCThe van looks awesome. That is what I would call a "stealth" van. Major stealth airplane type vibes.

2025-03-27 22:08:10 +0000 UTCLove the color of the wrap, looks awesome! Hope it won’t be a problem that it’s seem dirtier more quickly than it would with a lighter color. Looking forwards to see the rest of the build. Also love the Japan series. Keep up the great work!

2025-03-25 20:58:08 +0000 UTCFirst off, props to all 5 of you for climbing that! I physically could not, but the views were breathtaking. Great video, can't wait for the next one.
Michelle Cholewczynski
2025-03-25 20:54:38 +0000 UTCThe new van looks amazing.
Joe Vitellaro
2025-03-25 20:21:44 +0000 UTCGreat that you enjoyed Japan, but I'm probably in the minority, I watch you for the vanlife stuff, and I don't travel, I don't believe in travelling anymore, especially with how bad it is for the environment and travelling on planes. Last year was record levels for carbon emissions and also the hottest year on record, so I can't support travel like this, I'm sorry. But I look forward to the new van build.
Leanne Cole
2025-03-25 20:13:33 +0000 UTCI mean van lol

2025-03-25 19:07:25 +0000 UTCYou took 19 random strangers and made the homies bro! Who can do that. Insane, out of 8 billion people.
Thedrummer12382
2025-03-25 19:07:15 +0000 UTCI wish I could of went to Japan with you. It's so costly to travel especially when the Canadian Dollar is not doing good.
Shelley Sanches
2025-03-25 19:06:22 +0000 UTCTrent the Japan videos have been nothing but spectacular, I'm glad to hear the trip overall was a great success. I definitely want to visit Japan and after seeing these videos I am more than ever inclined to make it happen in the near future. Thanks for sharing it all with us.
Fazzy973
2025-03-25 18:35:46 +0000 UTCAwesome video! Glad you were feeling better to get some exploring done. You should do like a camping meet up next. Idk, like in BC on some BLM land or something. Everyone meet up with your van, car or tents. That'd be cool. The Japan series has been really fun to watch!
Shane Hooper

Angela Lovatt
2025-03-25 16:08:53 +0000 UTCTrent the van looks like something from mad max with the wrap. Looking cool. This was a fun video you must have been sad every time a group member would leave to go home. Such a fun group of people. I have really enjoyed the Japan videos. I hope we are not putting too much pressure on you to post videos. You are the only thing I enjoy watching so really look forward to your videos. Stay grounded and stay true to yourself. Glad you got to experience some community. I think these trips were really good for your soul.
