    THE ONE PHOTO PRESET I USE FOR TRAVEL - etsy.me/36LFt9r
    After snowboarding for the past few days, it was time to relax and pamper ourselves with a luxurious ryokan stay at Kusatsu Onsen town. We've never paid such an amount for an accommodation so this was huge for us. Nothing was sponsored.
    Stay tuned for the last episode of the Japan Winter vlogs :)

    The most we've ever paid for an accommodation. Would you try it someday? What's your experience like staying in a Ryokan?

    私は日本人です。最近あなたのチャンネルを知り過去の動画も拝見しております。何より映像のセンスが素晴らしい上に日本に対する愛を感じます。日本人が知らない所にも行ってますし、改めて日本の良さを伝えてくれるのは嬉しい限りです。
    伊勢神宮、淡路島、四国、宮島、しまなみ街道も非常におすすめです。ぜひ一度足を運んで下さい😂

    Omg thanks for the video. I’m missing japan AGAIN! The last onsen I went was Shirahone Onsen at Matsumoto. Japan is a country I can’t help but do repeated visits 😂 btw thought it was funny the guy had so much trouble getting into the ryokan but the lady was many a times already well adjusted and comfortable in the water! 😂cute

    • @shawneydepp

      Ikr. There’s always a reason to return back to Japan.

    I was thinking about this onsen ryokan, and just went ahead after watching your video, so thank you very much! Would like to ask you how do book the ryokan private onsen? it looks so good there and would definitely love to secure a slot ideally in the morning to take in the zen Japanese view.

    • @shawneydepp
      @shawneydepp  Рік тому

      It’s a first come first serve system, and there are only 3 private onsens. You’d have a better chance of not waiting probably very early in the morning

  • @foodlover195_
    @foodlover195_ Рік тому

    Winter Routenburo (Outdoor Baths) is literally the best way to experience onsens - although you definitely don't need to spend a small fortune to do so it certainly helps with the experience😅

    I'm Japanese, but I bathe for at least two hours in onsen. My grandfather used to bathe for about 5 hours.
