Hi Everyone! Finally, I was able to finish the 2nd vlog of my Japan vlog series. In this vlog, I’ll be staying the night at Kurokawa Onsen. It’s a famous onsen town in Kumamoto, Kyushu. It’s so famous that locals are happy when you mention or ask about it. The town is all about hot springs or onsen. I’ll be sharing with you my experience bathing in a public and private onsen.
