Accommodation prices on Miyajima are well known to be unforgiving, so are ryokans. Introducing my proud affordable find, Sakuraya Ryokan. The location was SOOOO good. It was 5min walk from the ferry dock and 10min… Story time? Beauty of solo travel. This was not my brightest moment. Google map was wrong AND I landed up in a spot where there was no internet… Will not find peace and calmness on Brighton beach! This place is swarmed. Brighton is a mere 1 hour train ride from Victoria station, can easily see why this place is one of Londoners’ favourite getaway.… This is a beautiful city stroll / chilled tourism sort of place. Do not expect lots to do or see. What this old town has to offer is oldness LOL Seriously, this town as been… It was the fight of the Nordic titans over which chef can open oysters the fastest… 16 contestants, 1 victor. Well, actually, I was just drinking bubbles and eating a lot while they worked hard. LOL. Despite sounding a bit ‘petty’, it was a serious annual event held by the West Sweden tourism board. Konokayu 木の香湯, also known as Kugino Onsen 久木野温泉 was located in the southern Aso village. Quick 5min walk from where I stayed Little Asia guesthouse (previous post). It was such a great stop for the evening after hikes or a long day of walking around. This was not a mixed bath (men & women bath naked together; konyu 混湯 Konyoyu). There will be a separate post on the infamous mix bath Sukayu 酸ヶ湯,… Boras, Sweden, was once a busting textile city. Think factories. Well, now that the labour is too expensive, textile industry became a distant history for Sweden. I’ve worked in the clothing / apparel business for over a decade now. To me, the museum had a very personally touch to it. There’s honestly nothing glamourous about the making of apparel, but it is an important industry that creates thousand of jobs (factories, shops and offices). The museum has a great touch to put things in perspective. Latest
