If you think you know Tokyo, think again! This guy really got me into a rabbit hole of all these cool places and spots all around Tokyo and the surrounding areas.

He left his corporate job in the US to train to become a pilot in Japan and make YouTube on the side, exploring the beautiful country :)

Norm does make some really beautiful content, but be warned that he can be a bit of a bastard in the comments if you say anything that disagrees with his opinion. I caught some strays myself once when pointing out that the largest second hand electronics market in Tokyo wasn't the one that he claimed it was.

I long suspected that I had been shadow-banned from commenting on his channel, and I couldn't figure out why. Then I found a subreddit with several threads about his behaviour and it made a little more sense.
