Hi Reader,

Do you love the idea of a community? I do!

As an expat family living abroad in Switzerland, I get all sorts of tips from expat communities here.

Like where to get Asian groceries, where to buy second-hand baby toys, etc… they are sooooo helpful.

Now, let’s imagine a little community for Hokkaido travel, where you can…

  • Ask simple questions that Google can’t seem to answer 🔎
  • Get inspired by other travelers are planning ✈️
  • Enjoy chatting like in a cozy cafe ☕️

Well, I’ve created exactly that!

📢 Eastern Hokkaido Travel Group​

​Talk to you in the group.

Best,
Yuuka

Hi Reader, When it comes to sharing seasonal tips for Hokkaido travel, I always try to bring you the freshest news. But I failed this time. The first sakura (cherry blossom) prediction for 2025 was released 2 weeks ago. But I completely missed it! I was traveling back in Japan and too busy to check online... So it’s a little late now, but I’ll talk about it below anyways—better late than never, right? What Else is Coming Up? Here are some other seasonal news you can look forward to in this...

Hi Reader, I just came back to Switzerland yesterday from my New Year holiday in Japan. Taking a long-haul flight with a 12-month-old baby was wild... I’m exhausted. And super jet lagged. BUT, I don’t forget what’s important. Sending you my weekly Hokkaido tips! I keep saying this, but Hokkaido is BIG. You can’t cover everywhere with one trip.
