Of course, when you're in Japan, you have to try the classic Sapporo Draft Beer Black Label! Served ice-cold, it's smooth from the very first sip, with a noticeable malt aroma and a bitterness that isn't too strong. It tastes crisp and refreshing.

I especially like drinking it with Japanese food, particularly yakiniku, fried foods, or ramen. The beer's crispness perfectly balances out the richness of the food, making it easy to keep drinking.

Tokyo's famous Shibuya Scramble Crossing had even more people than I imagined! As soon as the light turns green, people start walking from every direction, instantly filling the entire intersection. It's an incredible sight—you have to see it in person to understand what a massive crowd really looks like.

Standing in the crowd and watching everyone move quickly in different directions while still staying orderly was truly fascinating. Surrounded by tall buildings and giant billboards, the whole scene really captures the feeling of Tokyo as a bustling metropolis.

Riding the Hakone Ropeway was really fun! As the gondola slowly rises, you can look down from above and enjoy magnificent views of the Hakone mountains, with a chance to see Mt. Fuji too!

Passing over Owakudani was the most memorable part. You can see white smoke rising from the valley in the distance, and together with the volcanic landscape, it feels like entering another world. Seeing the natural scenery from above was truly breathtaking!

Shopping at Lumine Ikebukuro, the whole mall had a lively atmosphere, with clothing, accessories, and restaurants. It's really easy to lose track of time while walking around and browsing. What I was looking forward to most was buying the extremely popular HARBS fruit cake. Just looking at it made my mouth water!

HARBS is very generous with the fruit in its fruit cake. The cake is soft, and paired with smooth whipped cream, it tastes light and isn't too sweet. Every bite is packed with fruit and has lots of different textures. No wonder so many people recommend it.

Having a slice of cake after getting tired from shopping is simply the perfect little treat!

This time at GOTEMBA PREMIUM OUTLETS, shopping while admiring Mount Fuji put me in such a great mood! The outlet has lots of brands, with everything from clothing and shoes to household goods. It was a lot of fun to browse, and I couldn't resist buying a few things.

Next, I went to Yume no Ohashi Bridge. Standing on the bridge, the expansive sky and surrounding scenery were incredibly beautiful!

Taking the Hakone Pirate Ship is an essential experience when visiting Lake Ashi in Hakone. Boarding at Togendai Port, you can see from afar that the ship is modeled after a 17th- to 19th-century European warship. As you cruise across the lake, you can enjoy views of the surrounding mountains and water, and on a clear day, you may even see Mount Fuji in the distance!

By Lake Ashinoko, you can see Mount Fuji reflected in the clear blue water in the distance. It's so beautiful, like stepping straight into an anime scene! The most exciting part is riding the extravagantly designed “Hakone Pirate Ship.” As the huge sailing ship glides across the water with the wind, standing on deck in the breeze instantly gives you the thrilling feeling of setting off on an adventure!

Hakone Shrine by the lake has another big surprise: the striking vermilion “Torii Gate of Peace” standing in the water. So beautiful!

Visiting the Sengokuhara Pampas Grass Fields in summer was completely different from the golden pampas grass I had imagined in fall! In summer, the grass is still bright green, and seeing the vast field swaying in the wind makes it feel especially full of life.

This time, I actually walked along the trail, with tall pampas grass on both sides. When the wind blew, the entire field swayed together, and it was truly beautiful. Although it was a little hot walking in summer, the mountain views and natural scenery along the way were very pleasant! So great!

I originally thought it would just be an ordinary park, but I was pleasantly surprised when I actually went inside! There are flowers and plants everywhere, and together with Hakone's mountain scenery, the whole setting feels very relaxing. Every photo looks great! It's definitely a place worth visiting!

A famous local steak! Steakhouse 88 Tsuji Main Store is one of Okinawa's most iconic long-established steakhouses. It has a casual, lively atmosphere that gets you excited even before you eat.

This time, I tried the steak. The meat had a firm texture and a savory aroma, and after cooking it to my preferred doneness and eating it with the sauce, it was very satisfying. With the salad, soup, and rice, you'll leave very full!
