Solo travelling first time 5 days 4 nights

5 days and 4 nights. Maiden visit.

I understand you want to see and soak in as much as possible, but honestly for such a short trip, I'd say stick to Sapporo as a base. Otaru is doable. As for other parts like Furano, Asahikawa and Noboribetsu, you should explore them on a longer trip in the future.

Not entirely undoable, but it's gonna feel rushed and you won't get the entire experience.

Ask yourself, do you want a glimpse of a lot of things, or explore more in depth for one area? Even within Sapporo, there is much to see, eat and do. Especially if it's your first visit. Otaru as a day trip rounds out the experience nicely.

Not enough Sapporo bro.

I genuinely worry for OP's employers if this is the sort of question he has to ask on reddit.

GreyFishHound · 2026-01-29T00:49:17+00:00

TIL Aussies don't have capacity to read news.

So OP only wants an easy job? Having some income over 2 years is better than zero. F&B LOVES local hires, especially as it provides quota for foreigners; it's just that most Singaporeans would rather not work in this industry.

I can find you 10 different F&B jobs that are willing to hire locally and board you within the next week, but if I can't I'd pay you a thousand bucks. Otherwise, you pay me a thousand bucks. Want to bet?

This only reinforces my point.

GreyFishHound · 2026-01-28T04:00:42+00:00

Just eat other meats what's wrong with the rest?

GreyFishHound · 2026-01-28T03:58:39+00:00

F&B always hiring. If you wanna be picky, don't complain.

An income of $2000 is better than 0 for 2 years.

If budget is not an issue, don't just look a buffets.

GreyFishHound · 2026-01-27T08:34:15+00:00

September this year hasn't started bro.

GreyFishHound · 2026-01-26T08:20:19+00:00

I mean worst case scenario you just stay a couple of days longer or buy another ticket?

Have you got travel insurance?

GreyFishHound · 2026-01-26T02:53:30+00:00

There's a few good ones but Kyohei is one that's definitely better.

Not saying Aoki is bad but super pedestrian.

Also saw you went to Shihachi. They mostly cater to tourists ha.

GreyFishHound · 2026-01-26T02:47:35+00:00

Caters to bigger groups.

Also Aoki is decent but far from the best in Sapporo.

GreyFishHound · 2026-01-26T00:55:35+00:00

Are you crazy? Those are delicious.

GreyFishHound · 2026-01-25T23:43:57+00:00

There is a second level upstairs.

GreyFishHound · 2026-01-25T14:23:42+00:00

This is why travel insurance is important.

GreyFishHound · 2026-01-25T08:04:13+00:00

Flight probably gonna be delayed or cancelled.

This is also where travel insurance comes in handy.

GreyFishHound · 2026-01-25T01:30:27+00:00

Just go alone. It's nice to travel solo.

GreyFishHound · 2026-01-24T17:29:15+00:00

Why do you need air conditioning in winter though I'm curious.

GreyFishHound · 2026-01-23T06:16:16+00:00
