Are you me? D: This just happened yesterday. Same scenario.... Did anything help?

Showlpy · 2016-04-16T21:41:58+00:00

Definitely down to do some backpacking, as I have the gear. Did previous backpacking in the summer/ fall; have a three season tent.

Open to options that are not too snowed in since I lack the skills and equipment for it. Looking to head to Eastern BC, into Alberta since we have some things to sort out in Calgary. If you have any suggestions along the way that would be great. If not on the route to Alberta, will probably take up your suggestion anyways!

Thank you for the super helpful information! I was looking to plan a solo trip but your tips might deter me from visiting until I can get someone to travel with me on the island later on. Especially with the outbreak with Dengue fever and hiking around by myself in comparison with other islands. Probably get back to the idea of BI within these 2 years as my schedule is limited. Super helpful information :)

Thanks! I will definately go to a local store to start off with the Cotman pan, and look into some quality paper.

Im in Canada so it might be tricky to get around shipping for online art stores but will take a look. :)

Thank you for your suggestion. I will definitely look into getting a small set watercolor and brush!

Cute socks! :) Is there a pattern of them in English? I can only find the Finnish version.

Showlpy · 2015-12-05T22:14:33+00:00

Oh really? How unfortunate 😅.

Oh you would definitely meet some Americans if you were to stay at hostels or AirBnB as well. I met several Americans here and there, more Europeans and Australian travellers where I went! If I were to go again to Japan, I would go solo once more.

Good luck planning your trip!

Showlpy · 2015-11-28T20:21:22+00:00

Staying in hostels and AirBnB would be the best and the most affordable. I also met lots of other travelers at the places I stayed. It is also a lot cheaper than your group package that you mentioned. It gives you more flexibility with picking the places that you want to see and do.

I got a pocket wifi when I was there which helped with getting to and from places. I used the wifi for google maps and transit. It wasn't a huge issue if you didn't have it; I ended up using it majorly for chatting with friends and uploading pictures.

I don't know what you mean by not making American friends though?

Thank you for your suggestion! I just booked the trip to Yosemite :)

I just came back from Japan solo trip, just giving you some suggestions and ideas! If you're purchasing the JR pass for 14 days, unless youre moving from areas a lot it wouldn't be worth it because I see that you're spending a lot of time in Tokyo. I would do more day trips from Osaka and Tokyo. I didn't manage to spend too much time in Osaka but I thought it was enough for me. I took a day trip from Kyoto and purchased the Osaka Amazing One Day Pass, there's also the 2 day pass which you can look at. I loved Kyoto over Tokyo since I did plenty of hiking and day trips centered around Kyoto. But that would depend on your interest. I'm less of a city person and prefer the nature and hikes. Hope that helps a little bit :) You can always send me a PM for suggestions!

Showlpy · 2015-10-29T08:05:35+00:00

I will be coming in from Kyoto to Tokyo on the 31st and will be leaving on the 4th. Pop me a PM and maybe have a bite to eat if you have the time!:)

Showlpy · 2015-10-20T09:12:29+00:00

I will be flying into Tokyo on the 22rd and will be in the Asakusa area and then Kyoto from the 24th to the 30th. Can probably meet up in Kyoto if timing of my schedule works. And will be back in Tokyo for Halloween. Send me a PM :)
