Hi! We're Crystal and Candy of Travel Pockets. We're sisters who are half American and half Japanese

and we love to travel the world in style.

We grew up as military brats so we're used to moving from place to place.

That's why we love traveling so much.

Dos. Tres. Cuatro.

Whooo!

I'm canoeing!

We post videos weekly and would love for you to subscribe to our channel.

Follow us along on all of our adventures!

So we just got to teamLab Borderless in Odaiba.

We got here three minutes after opening.

Yeah so it opens up at 10. We got here at 10:03. There was already this huge line to get in.

And we're ticket holders too.

Yeah, we're ticket holders. We reserved the tickets online about a month before.

And my sister, actually my little sister, tried to get additional tickets for her daughter, for our niece

but they were already sold out. When was that? A few days before?

CINDY: A week ago.

A week ago, so yeah you really need to like be prepared...

yeah, plan in advance for this museum. It's very popular. There's more people behind us.

If you want to be in front of the line, you need to come before opening for sure.

There's more people coming. They just keep on coming.

Well, it's moving. It's moving pretty fast. It's been 15 minutes.

So I have to show my QR code.

And there's another line once we get in there.

They go in groups. So they made us wait now and then they wait until that group goes in.

MONITORS: Wander, Explore and Discover

Where do we go? Let's go to the butterfly house because nobody's going.

Can't see anything.

Oh wow.

So pretty!

[teamLab sound design]

Look how nice their legs go up.

I'm envious.

[teamLab sound design]

Wow...

It's our favorite one! It's our favorite one!

Oh yeah we like that one.

That's the one we saw.

This is the one we saw at the Mori Art Museum and it was so awesome.

CINDY: It keeps on moving like that?

Yeah, but...

The one we went to, we were able to sit on the floor.

CINDY: Yeah, I remember that picture.

[teamLab music]

It really is like so dark in here. You're like lost and amazed.

Is it reacting?

Oh, that's what it does?

I think this moves... that's what it is?

[teamLab music]

I think it's reacting.

CINDY: It made a sound.

Yeah. Is that what it does?

CINDY: I don't know.

[teamLab music]

Look at this. Look at how he's dancing.

CANDY: I like that dance.

[teamLab music]

This is so amazing.

Colorful, big balloons!

But it's like soft floors so that's why they asked you to rent shoes

because it's so soft that you can't wear heels in here.

Hello.

CANDY: I kind of want to do that.

So here, the kids get to draw their own fish or sea animal and then it projects up on the screen

so you have to find your fish. Isn't that cool?

So Candy's gonna draw a sea creature so we can try to see our sea creature on the screen!

We made our little fish.

CRYSTAL: We're gonna go and submit this. CANDY: Here's my little ugly fishy.

So uh I don't know where I take this next but I'm gonna find out so I can see my fishy in the ocean!

So now we submit our art drawing to this lady. She scans it and then it's supposed to show up over here.

She said "nice color!"

CRYSTAL: Yay!

Oh, there it is!

CRYSTAL: Oh wow!

CRYSTAL: She's so nice. She's like "Don't worry, it'll reverse"

Oh, okay

CRYSTAL: So there's our fish!

It's moving really fast.

[teamLab sound design]

Wow

So we had a big day today. We went to teamLab borderless...

it's like this super long name that I can't even remember. There's like...

There's like at least five or six words...

Yeah, at least. They love doing that.

It's like they put all their sponsors names in the...

Mhmm. It's like Mori Art... uh.. Epson... haha

Yeah, Epson, yeah.

Basically they put all their sponsors plus teamLab in their title so it's very hard to memorize it.

So anyway, we really really loved teamLab Borderless.

TeamLab is actually... their based in Japan and it's like a bunch of engineers, artists...

creatives that get together and create digital art.

And I didn't know what that was until I went to one... we went to one

and it's just amazing. It's hard to describe until you actually go there and experience it for yourself.

So then when we heard that they were building a permanent one in Tokyo

We were like, we HAVE to go.

It's a really unique experience and it's really hard to describe the experience

Just basically picture digital art and video projected everywhere

You're just surrounded by it

Oh and it's super dark in there with like no light in there so it's like the whole...

well it depending on how much time you spend in there... you're in dark... complete dark...

well, darkness with... the only lights that are there are whatever is projected on the screens.

So it's pretty interesting. I've never been to a museum like that where it's just like dark everywhere.

Yeah so they call it teamLab "Borderless" because there really isn't like a path to go.

You know, usually when you go into a museum, it's like okay, you go here

and then they kind of like have a path for you

but right when you get in, they're like ok, you can go straight, you can go left, or you can go...

oh I'm sorry... you can go left or you can go right.

So you have like all these choices and then it's just all in the open.

And then you just kind of go through this maze in the dark.

And it's kind of confusing too because they don't give you a pamphlet.

So it's like you don't even know what there is really, so...

Yeah, it's confusing but at the same time, I think it's a nice surprise too.

CANDY: Yeah

Because the whole thing is like "explore and wander" so I think they just want you to kind of wander around

and like checked everything out

Yeah, so that was really cool. The only time it sucked was when we couldn't find the exit.

Haha yeah. That was pretty hard.

We were like, how do we get out of here? Hahaha

So yeah, we really really loved teamLab. Oh and we spent about 3 hours there.

I think about 3 hours.

Yeah so it was about 3 hours.

We could have stayed longer but we were getting super hungry. There's no snacks in there.

There are drinks tho... so you might want to bring some snacks if you're going to spend a lot of time in there.

Because we were getting super hungry.

Yeah well we left like super early in the morning. We only had like bread.

We didn't have any lunch.

Yeah, we didn't have any lunch so definitely bring a snack and don't wear any heels either

because they have certain areas where there's kind of like soft ground that they use

Yeah and it's like hilly and bumpy so if you have heels on...

I mean they'll give you something else to wear if you do have heels

but you know, you don' want to have to spend time taking off your shoes and putting on other things

like something they give you, you should just wear flats. It's much easier that way.

Yes and they're very kid-friendly. They have a whole area just for kids.

and were even playing it there too because they have a lot of fun stuff for adults too.

Yeah it was pretty fun in there.

That's our review of teamLab Borderless. We really loved it. You should go. And you'll really enjoy it.

Yup, you'll have no regrets.
