From Tokyo to YONEZAWA (PART 1): Totoro Forest, Ryokan Stay in Japan, exploring an onsen town ♨️

Thank you, Jarman International for inviting me out to Yonezawa! Friends—I’m so excited to share with you just how special this beautiful little city is. 🙂 Located just 2-hours north of Tokyo (via Shinkansen), Yonezawa is the perfect place to escape the bustling streets of Tokyo for a bit.

In today’s video, we will travel to Yonezawa via Shinkansen from Tokyo, see the Totoro Forest, explore Onogawa Onsen, and stay the night at a Ryokan in Japan.

Stay tuned for PART TWO of this trip to Yonezawa, where I share a 2-day travel itinerary of things to do, see, and eat in Yonezawa.

I hope you enjoy this video and find it helpful!

ABOUT ME
Hi! I’m Remi. A Japanese-American millennial navigating adulthood in Los Angeles. I was born in Fukuoka, Japan but was adopted and raised in Los Angeles, CA.

I love playing tourist in my own city and discovering new places to visit (& eat)!

My mission is to encourage people to be tourists in their own cities by sharing my experiences with the world.

You’ll discover places to visit in Los Angeles/Southern California and get an understanding of what it’s like to live in LA.

I’ll also take you with me as I continue to learn more about Japan and my Japanese heritage.

Thanks so much for watching!
