As some of you already know, I often don’t spend much money on accommodation. I enjoy the pricier establishments of course, but many of my fondest memories were produced in much humbler places. Little Asia guest house, Minami-Aso, was one of those.
The guesthouse was run by this super mom and her dad (no English at all) + 2 kids lol. They’re so friendly and willing to help / chat. Homely Japanese hospitality.
Hubby and I stayed there for 3 nights. It was amazingly simple and homely. So relaxed with the wooden all over look. Tatami on a bunk bed?
There was a communal barbecue and kitchen. Cottage room came with private kitchen.
It was just a wonderful experience. Hubby and I did the full house thrifty experience by dining ‘locally’ too. Cup noodle for night no.1 LOL.
I was totally obsessed with this matcha / tea making machine!!! Too bad that it is only available for Japan 🙁
Based on our reservation, we had free breakfast with the accommodation:
Breakfast = 1 slice of toast + coffee / tea
Dinner (JPY350 / person) must be reserved daily before 17h00. Dinner = super mom made Japanese dinner. (LOVE)
While these were not a flashy meal, it was just one of those favourite meals! The simplicity and the local elements was what I loved about it. It was just so enjoyable to be having an half-ass Japanese conversation with a friendly grandpa or other felling travelers. I am a huge sucker for this type of experience.
The guesthouse was within 5min walk to Konokayu onsen (木の香湯 hot spring house) and a special bread store （Pain Daigo パンダイゴ 南阿蘇）that opens late and closes whenever! These 2 places were both worthy mentions and deserve their own blog post.
Tips:
Free bicycle rental is available.
Hike / farm / nature lovers’ heaven – see my Okamodo hike near this guesthouse
There’s a rice ‘cleaning machine’ near the choyo station. I had never seen one of these before. The Japanese community was so considerate! The nearby farms were largely organic and had low production. They could share the machine instead of invest.

Not within walking distance from any JR station
Local train station Choyo 長陽 was a solid 30min walk. The guesthouse was ON a hill. From choyo to guesthouse was a uphill walk.
Local bus, closes stop was this. 5~10min walk from the guesthouse. The bus stops just outside the hot spring house.
Closest long distance transport was bus stop Konokayu entrance 木の香湯入口 – 12~15min walk. The bus was JPY680 and gets to Aso/Kumamoto airport & JR station. From the bus station to the guesthouse was a downhill walk.
Personally, I felt that the bus was easier than the train for this trip.

Estou completamente encantado por PlayPIX Casino, e uma plataforma que pulsa com energia festiva. O catalogo e rico e diversificado, oferecendo jogos de mesa imersivos. 100% ate €500 + 200 rodadas gratis. Os agentes respondem com rapidez, sempre pronto para ajudar. Os saques sao rapidos como um raio, no entanto bonus mais variados seriam bem-vindos. Em resumo, PlayPIX Casino e indispensavel para jogadores para quem aposta com cripto ! Acrescentando que o design e moderno e vibrante, instiga a prolongar a experiencia. Muito atrativo o programa VIP com 5 niveis exclusivos, assegura transacoes confiaveis.

Galera, nao podia deixar de comentar no 4PlayBet Casino porque me impressionou bastante. A variedade de jogos e de cair o queixo: jogos ao vivo imersivos, todos funcionando perfeito. O suporte foi bem prestativo, responderam em minutos pelo chat, algo que passa seguranca. Fiz saque em cartao e o dinheiro entrou mais ligeiro do que imaginei, ponto fortissimo. Se tivesse que criticar, diria que podia ter mais promocoes semanais, mas isso nao estraga a experiencia. Pra concluir, o 4PlayBet Casino vale demais a pena. Ja virou parte da minha rotina.

Sou louco pelo batuque de RioPlay Casino, parece uma festa carioca de diversao. As opcoes de jogo no cassino sao ricas e dancantes, com jogos de cassino perfeitos pra criptomoedas. O servico do cassino e confiavel e cheio de swing, garantindo suporte de cassino direto e sem perder o ritmo. Os saques no cassino sao velozes como um desfile na avenida, as vezes queria mais promocoes de cassino que botam pra quebrar. No geral, RioPlay Casino oferece uma experiencia de cassino que e puro axe para os folioes do cassino! De lambuja o design do cassino e um desfile visual colorido, adiciona um toque de axe ao cassino.

Estou completamente apaixonado por BRCasino, parece uma festa carioca cheia de axe. As opcoes de jogo no cassino sao ricas e cheias de gingado, com caca-niqueis de cassino modernos e contagiantes. O atendimento ao cliente do cassino e uma bateria de responsa, respondendo mais rapido que um batuque de tamborim. Os saques no cassino sao velozes como uma ala de passistas, mas mais giros gratis no cassino seria uma loucura. Na real, BRCasino e um cassino online que e uma folia sem fim para os folioes do cassino! E mais o site do cassino e uma obra-prima de estilo carioca, eleva a imersao no cassino ao ritmo de um tamborim.
