Travel Updates: Hokkaido, Japan

I am having a fabulous time here in Hokkaido. Even though the journey started with a severe turbulence because of the snow storm. I had 5 hours transit in Tokyo then flied to Sapporo. It's been snowing really hard since I've been here. Fortunately it doesn't affect my itinerary.

I've been to Japan couple times before but Hokkaido just feel different from any other city in Japan such as Tokyo or Osaka. It feels more homey to me. I love how everything turns white covered with snow, so beautiful. The food is beyond delicious specially the seafood. They have the best grilled fresh scallop with the size of a plate.

I've been on a road trip from Sapporo, Otaru, Furano, Asahikawa and today in Mombetsu. I went for an ice breaker cruise which is an awesome experience. The weather was drop to -10°C during the cruise that I could hardly feel my nose. I'm heading to Akan Lake tomorrow and I'm going to enjoy Ainu performance at night. I'll write a proper blog post when I'm free. Cheers
