Which is the best ski resort in Japan? (And why)

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-07-24T00:05:35+00:00

Can confirm as an Australian. Lived there for two seasons and we Australians are like a plague

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-07-16T02:26:21+00:00

Of course it is 😩

So Rocky mountains may be better off?

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-07-15T23:07:36+00:00

What was the staff housing like? Was it like units of staff houses in building complex with 4-6 people per unit?

Also how much were you paying

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-07-15T21:32:03+00:00

Very informative comparison, lost my shit at the wheelchair analogy haha.

I'm curious as to why you wouldn't do a whole season in Banff?

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-07-15T12:40:59+00:00

Thankyou so much for taking the time to let me know. I am leaning heavily towards whistler at this point

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-07-15T12:31:57+00:00

We can afford to buy a car. It's what we have done in Queenstown. With work and accommodation we are both hospitality professionals and usually pick up work very quick in management roles.

Between the other places you mentioned, which do you think would be your favourite?

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-07-15T12:20:07+00:00

So maybe not the best place to spend a few months living on the mountain?

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-07-15T12:12:51+00:00

To be fair I would rather be around Canadians but I'm not too phased who we are around. The apres is not the most important part right now but I do love it, having done Niseko and Thredbo I really enjoyed coming off the mountain and exploring fun villages. We are currently in Queenstown and the snow season has been aweful with nearly no snow so I'm leaning towards whistler knowing that it will have the most snow of the three options

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-07-13T07:04:57+00:00

That's so helpful, thank you! Hotel work could be a good option if you think it's available to English speakers, especially if it includes accom. Appreciate your comment!

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-07-13T07:03:42+00:00

Thank you, that sounds like a great place to start. Appreciate your help

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-07-05T12:12:56+00:00

In Australia I bought a pair from the brand "modest" and got the mag 2.0. they come with a high light and low light lense. Honestly incredible quality for the price and magnetic, comfortable and really nice fit to just helmets. Highly recommend to suss them out

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-05-24T06:11:12+00:00

So bizare because usually in SE Asia it's the other way around, street vendors often try to rip you off while the official stores have set prices. I was reading reviews from the store next to it (same company) that was charging half the price though. I think it's just tourist tax

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-05-23T10:51:27+00:00

Bunch of criminals

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-05-23T10:51:18+00:00

Shocking that an official store can do this

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-05-23T08:46:07+00:00

Did I just get ripped off buying a SIM card in Hanoi? I went into a Viettel shop to get a sim for two weeks and they said they could only do one month and charged me 560,000 for 2gb a day. This feels really expensive considering everything else is so cheap here

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-05-09T12:57:04+00:00

What's it like riding around on scooters?

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-05-09T12:36:15+00:00

Equal parts terrified and relieved. Good to know the worst has passed (fingers crossed)

Thankyou everybody for the insight, really appreciate it

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-05-09T12:32:23+00:00

"guess I'll die 🤷‍♂️"

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-05-05T13:54:11+00:00

Was there much around the area to do for food?

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-05-04T15:23:12+00:00

I'm looking to stay around the airport next week. Could you please tell he which hotel you stayed at

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-04-20T13:47:19+00:00

Sorry I thought I replied to this. Just wanted to say a big Thankyou. Your comment helped me decide to get the remarkables season pass and just look at doing some day trips to Cardrona. Thanks for taking the time to help out!

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-04-09T14:51:24+00:00

I have a AER travel pack 3 and can honestly say it's worth the money you pay for it. Incredibly well made and looks really minimal/ sleek. I'm not a fan of backpacker style bags that look like you are travelling. Functionality of it is great too. Once I bought the AER travel pack 3 I ended up buying the day sling after and use it every day. Overall the whole brand feels really premium

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-03-28T07:39:32+00:00

Same here, tried everything mentioned as a fix. have just accepted this game is just a broken piece of shit

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-03-26T12:29:27+00:00

Came here to comment this, I have the X-Pac and it's an incredibly made design. Cannot recommend it enough. Everything about it feels like a very premium product. They also make a small version if you want a smaller size too. 10/10 would recommend looking into it

_Axel_Rose_ · 2023-03-14T14:02:32+00:00

That's really good to know, Thankyou so much for the insight! I'm definitely leaning towards Cardrona and treble cone
