I was super excited for this. It's one thing visiting a place and looking at the scenery, but another thing entirely participating and immersing yourself in it. The next stop was the Eel restaurant Rin and Nadeshiko visit together to eat the most delicious eel ever. So I needed to try it for myself. This... Continue Reading →
I hopped off the bus from my previous location in Hamamatsu city and hopped onto a train to take me along the coast a little bit, to a couple of locations that Rin visits solo in episode 3 of season 2. My stop was Bentenjima. Rin stays at Nagisaen Camping Ground on the reclaimed island... Continue Reading →
Back to writing about Yuru Camp, yippee!! From here on, I go and visit a bunch of locations from season 2. I follow Rins footsteps to where she meets up with Nadeshiko to eat eel, and visit some of the geospots the whole gang go to too. 365Base Outdoor Hostel We hopped on the shinkansen...

Just a quick break from the anime content for some more regular touristy stuff my sister and I got up to. After Kyoto, we hopped on the train to Osaka. Overall, it was a super cool city. Think Tokyo, but with a more laid-back atmosphere. People are smiling a bit more, and in general people... Continue Reading →

I've been back home for a couple months now, and after procrastinating the entire time, I've finally got round to sitting down and writing up about the rest of my trip. Hibike Euphonium now, and more Yuru Camp to come. It's gonna be a long post, so strap in. Kyoto was super fun. I spent... Continue Reading →
I mentioned at the end of the last post that I would be hiking up to the Takabocchi highlands, where there is a campsite Rin stays at in the first season in episode 5. We would camp up there too, then rest a day. The plan after that was to hike up to Jinbatagayama, a... Continue Reading →
Since I got back I sort of forgot about blog writing and all that, but suddenly at around 3:45am on Friday morning, the last day of my two-week isolation, I felt the impulse to write what's happened so far. No Idea why. It was preventing me from sleeping though so I had to. This post... Continue Reading →
I won't do any contents links since there's only one Yuru Camp location in this post. If you're interested in reading my Yuru Camp content you can read part 1 and part 2 here. The rest is me accounting what I've been up to. Fortunately for those that came here for Yuru Camp, it's the... Continue Reading →
