Glad to have you back!! Hope you’ve had a great vacation!! Karuizawa looks absolutely delightful, I wonder how difficult it would be for a non japanese speaking foreigner to visit the smaller Japanese towns.

Finally made it back! 😅 I'm so happy to hear such kind words. Thank you! Karuizawa has a history of being a summer retreat for foreigners since the Meiji era, and it's famously known as a place where even John Lennon spent his summers (although winters can be quite chilly). In Japan, even in smaller towns, it's safe, and people are kind. You don't have to worry. With like Google Translate! Google Translate is a must-have for me 😂

@@cookingJapan wow thats amazing to know! I was always under the impression that google translate normally has issues with Japanese translations.

@@fewchr Indeed! 🤔 But for basic communication, it's very reliable and handy 😄
