I am your BIGGEST FAN WHAT AN ADVENTURE
π€€π€€
May I know which hotel did you stay in fukuoka?
I would like to visit Nagasaki
Thanks for the guide! π Was curious what time of year you visited?
Thanks for sharing! We're planning our 2nd trip to Japan (but only for 1 week). Think Fukuoka (and surrounding areas) is worth the commitment? Or maybe somewhere else? (golden triangle already done)
Hi, may I know how you travelled from Fukuoka to Yaganawa?
The food looks amazing
Best city in Japan!
Thank you for a great video. Planning my next trip from just getting back to Japan. Very helpful
I think I saw your previous vlog in Kyoto but I think you made me love Fukuoka specially Yanagawa and Itoshima. I'm currently planning my first ever trip to Japan and yet I keep finding hidden cities like Yanagawa and Itoshima. Definitely adding it to a future trip.
