drinking & smoking with locals in Japan – Honest Places x KatKin

Japan has long been a destination that captures the imagination, and for Honest Places, the dream of visiting finally became a reality after a significant investment of time and resources. The journey begins in the heart of Tokyo, a city famous for its neon lights and towering skyscrapers, but this exploration focuses on the grit and authenticity found beneath the surface. By venturing into the narrow alleys and the tiny, smoke-filled pubs known as izakayas, the video provides a genuine look at how the locals actually spend their evenings. It is a raw and unvarnished perspective that prioritises real human interaction over the typical tourist itinerary, showcasing a side of Tokyo that is often hidden from the average visitor.

The experience is a deep dive into the sensory overload that defines the Japanese capital. From sampling world-class sushi at tucked-away counters to tasting premium Japanese whiskies in intimate bars, the vlog captures the incredible quality and variety of the local food and drink scene. More importantly, it documents the conversations and connections made with the people who live and work in the city every day. Whether it is sharing a drink with a salaryman after a long shift or navigating the social etiquette of a local smoking area, the focus is on the authentic atmosphere of the streets. It is an honest portrayal of a city that manages to be both incredibly modern and deeply rooted in tradition, providing a compelling narrative for anyone who appreciates a travel experience with a bit of an edge.

While exploring the world and enjoying the best of international culture is a priority for the team, making sure things are taken care of back home is equally important.
