Many years ago, my sister-in-law gave us a notebook with a distinctly Filipino flavor. This year, instead of buying my usual notebook (Moleskine), I decided to go Filipino and use this notebook. I think it’s actually as good if not better than Moleskine, and it’s a bonus it looks distinctly Filipino.

A few years ago in trying to keep it simple, I decided to stop using my Kindle Paperwhite, and just use my iPhone for reading books. One less device since I already always have my phone with me anyways. A few weeks ago though, I realized I want a dedicated book reader again so I bought the new Kindle 2022. It’s cheaper and has less features than the latest Kindle Paperwhites, and I believe it is just enough for my needs. I have it for a few days now reading Isaac Asimov’s “Forward the Foundation”, and so far so good. I can focus on reading books without the smart phone distractions. I can also read even while under the bright sun. I think it is also less stressful to the eyes. *** Video *** Camera - Canon EOS RP Lens - Canon RF50mm f1.8 STM and RF35mm f1.8 IS Macro STM Video Editing - LumaFusion on iPad Settings - 4K 24fps *** Music *** bedtime after a coffee by Barradeen | https://soundcloud.com/barradeen/ Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/deed.en_US Music promoted by https://www.chosic.com/free-music/all/

For this Christmas, we only have two Christmas decors. One is a wooden “belen” we bought in Austria a few years back, and another is a Filipino “parol” given to us by our family in the Philippines. Merry Christmas everybody, and we wish you all the best for the new year! *** Video *** Camera - Canon EOS RP Lens - Canon RF50mm f1.8 STM Video Editing - LumaFusion on iPad Settings - 1080p 30fps *** Music *** Music Box (Carol Of The Bells) by MaxKoMusic | https://maxkomusic.com/ Music promoted by https://www.chosic.com/free-music/all/ Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported (CC BY-SA 3.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/

I started brewing my own coffee this year. It’s cheaper than ¥100/cup convenience store coffee, and as a bonus, I also get to practice mindfulness every morning. I got a cheap plastic Hario V60, and started buying coffee from Kaldi, and local coffee shops. *** Video *** Camera - Canon EOS RP Lens - Canon RF5050mm f1.8 STM Video Editing - LumaFusion on iPad Settings - 1080p 30fps *** Music *** Morning Routine by Ghostrifter Official | https://soundcloud.com/ghostrifter-official Music promoted by https://www.chosic.com/free-music/all/ Creative Commons CC BY-SA 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/

We got this vacuum machine (Dyson Omni-glide) last year, and so far so good. We like it better than our previous standard vacuum cleaner because it’s cordless, it’s light, and it’s simple to use. Just the right size for our small Tokyo home. I wouldn’t recommend it if you have a big house as the batteries might not last long enough to clean the house. I wouldn’t recommend it if your house is carpeted as well as I believe this is designed for hard floors. Overall, we are happy with this purchase. Hope you like the video. *** Video *** Camera - Canon EOS RP Lens - Canon RF50mm f1.8 STM Video Editing - LumaFusion on iPad Settings - 1080p 30fps *** Music *** Faithful Mission by Artificial.Music | https://soundcloud.com/artificial-music Music promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.com Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en_US

Took my new camera/lens to Tokyo Station to practice some street photography/videography. This is maybe the most photogenic station of Japan, especially the century old brick building at the Marunouchi side. *** For This Video *** Camera - Canon EOS RP Lens - Canon RF35mm f1.8 IS Macro STM Video Editing - LumaFusion on iPad Settings - 1080p 30fps Video Type - ASMR

During corona, we found ourselves spending more time at home. We thus saw the need to improve the home atmosphere, and what better way to do that than to introduce indoor plants. In a little less than two years, I believe we have accomplished that goal. 0:00 Staghorn 0:14 Monstera Deliciosa 0:29 Tabebuia 0:43 Peperomia Hope 0:58 Hoya Carnosa 1:12 String of Pearls 1:27 String of Almonds 1:41 Succulents 2:53 Snake plants 3:23 Aloe Vera 3:37 Pothos 4:21 Dischidia Oiantha 4:35 Dischidia Nummularia 4:50 Ficus Umbellata 5:04 Corn Plant 5:19 Umbrella plant 5:33 Silver Sword Philadendron 5:48 Lemon Grass 6:02 Oregano 6:17 Japanese Cryptotaenia 6:31 Pothos - Snow Queen Pothos 6:46 Ivy *** For This Video *** Camera - Canon EOS RP Lens - Canon RF35mm f1.8 IS Macro STM Video Editing - LumaFusion on iPad Settings - 1080p 30fps

Hello, this is Taga-Tokyo, and I bought a new camera. A Canon EOS RP full frame camera. I got the one with an RF35mm f1.8 IS STM kit lens. This is to replace my Olympus OM-D EM-5, which I bought 7 years ago in 2015. The Olympus has been good to me, but I guess after 7 years, it’s time for an upgrade. My goal was to get more bokeh in my videos, so I’m switching to full frame. The Canon EOS RP is the cheapest full frame camera from any brand, and the RF35mm f1.8 lens is a good relatively cheap lens, that can get good bokeh. Canon is also arguably the top camera brand, so it’s not a bad thing to get into the Canon ecosystem, even if they’re still relatively new to full frame mirrorless cameras. If I like it, maybe I’ll even end up upgrading to Canon’s even more expensive cameras, and lenses. I will use this camera for my next videos, hoping I get more creamy bokeh. Thanks for joining me today, and join me again next time! *** Featured *** Camera - Canon EOS RP Lens - Canon RF35mm f1.8 IS STM *** For This Video *** Camera - Olympus OM-D EM-5 Mark II Lens - M.Zuiko Digital 45mm f1.8 Video Editing - LumaFusion on iPad Settings - 1080p 30fps

Hello, this is Taga-Tokyo. I started uploading videos in September 2022, hoping I would be able to share some parts of my life here in Tokyo. I have posted 3 videos already and I believe it’s time to introduce myself. I’m a Filipino living in Tokyo, and I usually take videos of mundane things inside the house. I got the idea from other Japanese who post similar videos, while also making sure to maintain a level of privacy. As much as possible, I would avoid posting faces, or any markers that would identify who I am or where exactly in Tokyo I am. I would also make sure the videos are shot beautifully so I’m using a camera/lens I bought a few years ago. It’s an Olympus OM-D EM5 Mark II, using an M.Zuiko 55mm f1.8 prime lens. I am also researching about other cameras, especially the ones that would be good for my use case … I am looking at the Canon EOS RP, but I want the Mark II version which is rumored for late 2022. As for the audio, I wanted to keep the original audio as taken by the camera … some sort of ASMR. Personally when I want to relax, I would search YouTube for such videos, and play them in the background. Hopefully, I would be able to contribute similar videos. I will be posting more videos in the future, and hopefully, you can feel relaxed watching my videos, no matter how mundane the topics may be. If you like these kind of videos, I certainly wouldn’t mind if you subscribe, and join me in this simple journey. Thank you for watching, and hope to talk to you soon! Until next time! *** Featured *** Tablet - iPad Air 5th generation Keyboard - Apple Magic Keyboard Pencil - Apple Pencil *** Video *** Camera - Olympus OM-D EM-5 Mark II Lens - M.Zuiko Digital 45mm f1.8 Video Editing - LumaFusion on iPad Settings - 1080p 30fps

Trimming nails is something we do so often that we take oftentimes take it for granted. While filming and editing this video, I was able to give this menial activity some thought and focus. I was able to read about the Suwada nail clippers we were using, and learn more about the company’s history and products. I hope you find it relaxing watching this ASMR video. *** Featured *** Nail Clipper - Suwada Classic Nail Nipper Vacuum - Dyson Omni-glide (Purple) Background plant - Pothos *** Video *** Camera - Olympus OM-D EM-5 Mark II Lens - M.Zuiko Digital 45mm f1.8 Video Editing - LumaFusion on iPad Settings - 1080p 30fps This video is the first time I started using LumaFusion on iPad. The app is not free but at a little over JPY 3000, I thought it might be worth it, if it means I can do my editing on the iPad, and move away from my iMac.

When we water our indoor plants, we usually put them outside first, then water them in one go using a water hose. Not only is it more convenient for us, it also gives the plants a chance to get some healthy sunlight and natural wind. We water the plants twice a week during summer and maybe once a week during winter. It is very relaxing for us, and hopefully this video will help you relax as well. *** Plants *** Pothos Ivy Stag horn Snake plant Umbrella plant Peperomia Dischidia Aloe *** Miscellaneous *** Hose - Water Gear black hose Wood deck - ipe wood by Monstarts *** Video *** Camera - Olympus OM-D EM-5 Mark II Lens - M.Zuiko Digital 45mm f1.8 Video Editing - iMovie for MacOS Settings - 1080p 30fps
