Whatever the origin of the kayari buta, and whether or not you believe in the effectiveness of katori senkō as a mosquito repellant, these pig-shaped pots are now intrinsically linked to that feeling of summer in Japan🌞🐖🥰

海の家の灯りが、夕暮れの海に溶けていく時間🌅🌊

ラムネを片手に、波の音を聞きながら眺める夏の終わり。

静かな海辺に残る、日本の夏の思い出🍧

The beach house lights fade into the sunset.
A quiet moment by the ocean, holding a ramune and listening to the waves.
A small piece of Japanese summer.

佐賀県佐賀市の「金山」山頂からの眺めを撮ってきました！

そう言えば佐賀県の山を登るのは初めてですね。
石の上に登らないと景色が見えないのですが、遠く雲仙普賢岳まで見えたので良かったです😆

Tokyo is nice too, but let's visit Ojiichan and Obaachan out in the countryside. The view from my room is worth the trip.

Are you going to #Japan this summer ? If so, know that some older or old-fashioned-on-purpose hotels use actual keys on a giant key fob. DON'T take them with you when you go out for the day. You drop them off and pick them up at the front desk.

Summer in Japan Without the Heat and Crowds: A Quiet-Lane Guide

Japanese summer is hot, humid, and crowded around the festivals — but plan around three ideas and it turns calm and cool. Go where it stays cool: the northern regions, highland towns like Takayama, and shaded river gorges like Oirase run several degrees lighter than the cities. Split your day — big

Japanese vending machines are next level. Going to Japan this summer? You can buy coffee, OJ, trains, and #Enhypen * in a can.

Stick around for more #JapanSummer content. I'm just getting started.

I've been to #Japan 20+ times with my #bicultural family. Let's explore things most tourists miss.

Is Shizuoka Mori no Ie your vibe? Or do you like the big city excitement of Kyoto better? Or do you like a balance of both?

Stick around for more off-the-beaten-path adventures in Japan this summer.
