My Third Japan Trip - The Intro

Farm Tomita, Furano

I think I haven't finished writing about my 2017 Japan trip yet, and I went to Japan for the third time already. Well, I hope this time I will write more diligently *finger crossed*. Before I sort out on what to write, let me do the intro upon this trip.

This time I spent 10 nights in Japan. My main interest on this trip was to visit Hokkaido, but I started the trip revisiting the forever busy Tokyo. Thank God I flew to Sapporo just a few days before the Hagibis typhoon, so I was safe and sound in Hokkaido when the typhoon came.

I stayed around Shinjuku in my previous visits, and this time, I chose to stay around Asakusa for a different vibe. And yes, I will write about staying around this area later.

Yokohama

When planning upon this trip, I thought about a few day trip options from Tokyo and finally chose Yokohama as one of the day trip destination. No regret because I did fall in love with this city!

Starbucks Reserve Roastery - Meguro, Tokyo

One of the place I visited in Tokyo that I think worth writing about is this Starbucks Reserve Roastery in Meguro which happened to be the largest Starbucks Reserve in the world for now.

Hakone

Other than Yokohama, I also visited Hakone as a day trip from Tokyo.

Susukino, Sapporo

From Tokyo, I flew to Sapporo by plane. It's funny that my friends who are with me in this trip thought that Sapporo is a village. Apparently it's not. It's a big city with neon lights and big shopping malls my dear friends. And from Sapporo I did some day trips to some of the other cities in Hokkaido.

Shikisai No Oka, Biei

 Some of the cities I visited were: Furano, Biei, Otaru, Toya, and I spent a night in Hakodate.

Lake Toya

Hakodate

I will write in details later. Soon, I hope. But lemme ask you guys some questions:

Should I write about preparation and cost again? 

What do you guys want to know about, and which place do you think is more interesting to write about first?
