Home for nearly three years, and the most underrated city in Japan, full stop. The Alps on one side, the Sea of Japan on the other, world-class water, and almost no foreign tourists. This is the deepest first-hand content on the site.
One page with everything I wish I’d known before landing: getting a SIM, fair taxi and Grab prices, where to eat, how to rent a bike, and the stuff guidebooks skip. Plus weekly stories from the road across Japan and Vietnam.
