The mountains of Japan’s Niigata Prefecture get upward of 4 meters of snow a season earning this region of Japan the title of “Snow Country.” I returned to my home near the snow country to find some Christmas money. A quick call to a friend insured that it would be put to good use. Here’s one way to go snowboarding on a dime in Japan.

Bryan is an expat English teacher, published writer and aspiring producer living in Niigata Japan. When he isn’t writing articles for Japanese publications in English, he likes to spend his modest earnings to find inexpensive ways to travel and experience Japan.

Traveling on a Dime is a periodic show of Bryan’s adventures in one of the most expensive countries in the world. As he says, “It doesn’t have to be expensive, and you can have an amazing experience even when traveling on a dime.”
