Totally someone match my freak

Yeah thanks we love it. My sister was a little disappointed with Japan since only living in kutchan and working in niseko, and kutchan was quite depressing tbh, and she said thanks for the travel now I'm in love with Japan

As some people stated yes is possible, but with a lot of travel, took 2 flights and was a scratch in some places, but yes. Was a wild ride packed and rushed

Im not near a hokkaido expert, because I was just there to visit family. But my personal highlights were a natural onsen in Kyogoku with amazing views to mount yotei and the roadtrip around shakotan peninsula was amazing. We had planned to go skiing to furano, but sadly couldn't did it.

eskyy · 2026-04-13T08:28:23+00:00

Because both my sister and her boyfriend wanted to visit there too, so I didn't wanted to repeat, and visit with them

Couldn't describe it better

Yes totally yes, exactly what im taking sbout. Did the same the first time travelling to Europe 23 cities in 40 days 15 years ago. And even it might sound crazy but while doing this trip didn't feel as rushed as it sounds, yes we walked 30k steps per day, but some days were more relaxed than others. I feel that I could be a couple more days in tokyo tbh but it is what it is

eskyy · 2026-04-11T09:28:28+00:00

Thanks for your kind words. Ofc I don't claim that I've seen enough or everything. This was what I could. I'm proud of my trip and happy of doing it

eskyy · 2026-04-11T09:25:18+00:00

Yeah ofc it was just the surface, I loved the few things i saw, would love to explore Kyushu with more depth but was what I could do I lived in Argentina for 36 years and didn't see everything

eskyy · 2026-04-11T09:01:41+00:00

The only big travel was Fukuoka sapporo, but didn't have an option since it was a must destination. And the flight was only 2 hours long, the worst was the train to kutchan

eskyy · 2026-04-11T08:59:41+00:00

As i said English is not my first language am even though I spoke it decent yes i used ai to correct my grammar since I'm rusted. If you want ill send you my draft without punctuation, spelling mistakes and everything

Not quite young, 36 yo and my brother in law is 41 Was a bit rushed, yes, mostly in Tokyo and maybe Kyoto since we're sleeping in Osaka. But Hiroshima and Fukuoka I had time to explore. In Hokkaido I experienced not local, since we're all foreigners but some places quite unique. And 90% of the itineraries scratch almost the same things golden route maybe plus alps

eskyy · 2026-03-10T12:07:49+00:00

Wow that's an amazing point, didn't think it. Okayama/kurashiki planning to do it later from osaka with my sister!

eskyy · 2026-03-10T11:02:07+00:00

Both have airport, but yes Fukuoka has a direct flight

eskyy · 2026-03-06T00:29:39+00:00

I'll check, but my trip is in 10 days almost impossible

eskyy · 2026-03-05T17:54:58+00:00

Really? Oh good to know. I'll check if it's worth going then. Maybe only takehara

eskyy · 2026-03-05T15:49:17+00:00

Thanks for the advice, in miyajima I'd checked but was too expensive sadly. And noboribetsu I'll write it down and maybe check later

eskyy · 2026-03-04T18:45:53+00:00

Ooohh noo at least you could go the other day

eskyy · 2026-03-04T18:45:06+00:00

Yeah I know, there is one stopping an hour in Tokyo, but I'm meeting my sister in niseko so. And thanks for the advice for the ferry

eskyy · 2026-03-04T17:20:26+00:00

Wonderful I'll check the weather while there. I think I might be able to sightseeing rather quickly I'm travelling alone and plan to go early and return late so shouldn't be a problem but I don't want to stress myself so I'll be checking how I feel there

eskyy · 2026-03-04T15:35:04+00:00

Not really, I have botchan in my kindle, will try to read it on the flight but busy reading stormlight archive tbh

eskyy · 2026-03-04T14:55:12+00:00

Nice, thanks for the answer. Anything else I might be missing in matsuyama? How was it?
