I am a Japanese citizen living in Niigata Prefecture, Japan. Mt. Yahiko has the best view and there is a place where you can see the Sea of Japan. There is a hot spring town nearby.

Thanks for trying that vending machine sushi. Love the adventure!

To eat dipping soba need to gently press the noodle with your lips and give it a good strong slurp to aerate it … like how some wine enthusiasts do when tasting wine.. really brings out the flavour

Happy new year guys !

Sake made in Niigata often has a different taste from sake made in other regions.
It is called 淡麗辛口"Tanrei Karakuchi, '' and although it is sometimes said to have a bland taste, the people of Niigata love it.

I’m glad you went off beaten track it’s really interesting! Those deserts ❤❤❤❤❤and sake vending machines 😅 you can get nicely chilled at the stations and miss your train if you were killing sometime! They should do this at Bordeaux train station 😊 people would stay put around there!
Have a lovely festive season and look forward to see more from you in the new year!
Thank you for everything

Hey guys, Hope this message finds you well. Harriet and I visited Niigata about 8 years ago. Love it for its climate and temperature. And certainly, it's fresh sashimi . We were warned by our tour guide at the time to stay away from sashimi in vending machines. The best was in the fish markets. Always, fresh. Your tour of Niigata hit all the right notes. Thank you for sharing.
We want to wish you guys and your family a Happy, Healthy and Safe New Year 2024. We are along for this wonderful ride. Hugs🫂 and Kisses💋 from Harriet, Jim and Yuki

I just got back from our 1st Japan trip with my family. Already miss it. Your new series on Japan is tempting me for our next visit. I would love to visit other areas Japan has to offer. We hit Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka and Hakone. We barely scratched the surface. Thanks for your Peru vids as well, haven't been back to my birth country in over 20 years. I definitely need to go back. Have a happy and adventurous New Year!

Next time, please visit the Bus Station curry. Its one of the best in whole japan, and the best part is the price, just ¥390 when we visited 5/2023. Thank you for sharing your experience in the land of rice and sake.

Perhaps I would have already seen it if I scrolled down farther but #111 is Umeshu (梅酒) plum wine which tends to be sweet.
