Howdy there !

My name in Vi. I'm planning to go to Japan in September so I'm looking for nice place, accommodations, itineraries etc.

I'm only tripping for 15 days so my steps will certainly be something like :
Tokyo Narita --> straight to Fukuoka for 1 day or 2 (maybe planning a daytrip to Beppu)
Fukuoka --> Osaka, 1 day or 2 (I wonder if it would be interesting to make a stop or 2 like in Kobe or Hiroshima)
Osaka --> Kyoto, 4 or 5 days (when in Kyoto I'm planning a day to Nara)
Kyoto --> Tokyo, less than a week (when in Tokyo I'm planning a day especially for Fujisan and a day trip to Kamakura)

I'm very open to every proposition, ideas, etc. 15 days are pretty short and I know I'll have to come back.
I'm especially looking for nice but not too expensive accommodations that's why if you have some Ryokans to recommend to me, I'd be very pleased - MP - (but I'll speak about it in another topic in the forum)

Hope you're having a wonderful day !
Vi

Mina-san konnichiwa,

As Japan addict I was happy to find secret-japan.com,
travelled from south to north, "Looking for the lost" Japan
and often found it way out or even close to modernism.

My nihon-go is limited, just enough to get me around
so "secret" places, hidden onsen and local nihon ryori
are hard to find in conventional travel guides,
so that's what I hope to find here!

Hello, my name is Marli from Australia. My partner and I are planning our third winter trip to Japan for February / March this year - very excited. I stumbled upon this website when looking for alternative accommodation options near the ski resorts (ie - not big western hotels etc). I thought you also might like to check out our trip report from our visit to Japan in 2010 - I think it might be right in line with Secret Japan travellers, go to Off the Leash

This year we will only have four weeks in Japan, but we hope to venture to a few more skiing areas that we havent already explored and go back to a couple of our favourites.

Hi!!!!!

Just moved into the Kyoto prefecture (fukuchiyama, to be exact) and travel quite a bit. I work (in my free time. haha) for a music magazine and thus, travel a lot to attend concerts around Japan (and Taiwan, but that's kind of outside of the topic), so I'll need lots of help figuring out how best to get places and where best to relax, chill, and explore in the time between my real job and concerts.

Please treat me kindly!

Hello everyone. I arrived in Japan about a year ago and still have 3 more to discover all that I can. Smile

Hopefully I'll see great things on my stay here.

Salut

I have been a frequent visitor to Japan for a number of years - ever since in fact my
business students in France said they were bewildered by their Japanese customers/suppliers/. I resolved to
go and find out.

Now living near Hong Kong in mainland China I have plenty of opportunity to go there. My next trip is next week
first to Okinawa then on to Kyushu by boat - the only area of Japan I have not been to.

At my age I like to soak up in the onsen so any suggestions as to particularly good ones in Kyushu - I know there's many - would be welcome. Later I'll post some of my own knowledge and experience about Japan.

Greetings
