Sapporo Diaries: Showing my New Neighbor Around
On August 3, I took my new neighbor out to Sapporo to show him around. It’s his first time in Hokkaido, and he hadn’t been to Sapporo before, so I thought I’d take him around and show him the basics around Sapporo station. We arrived around 11, which made for good timing to get lunch.…
Things to do in Otaru, Hokkaido
Since I’m making a Sapporo version (which is much larger than Otaru), and since I’ve been to Otaru a couple times, have a few coworkers/friends from there, and it’s the next biggest city closest to me, I figured I can make a version of that post but for Otaru. It’ll be a bit smaller, since…

My birthday was a couple weeks ago, and one of my new friends here, who has a birthday close to mine, wanted to plan a party celebration of sorts on November 19, the weekend closest to my birthday, since mine was on a weekday. According to the weather, it was going to just be cloudy,…
