Welcome to our world!

Once upon a time, Ai and I traveled to many famous onsen (volcanic hot springs). The best were always located in deep in snowy mountain valleys. From this was born our next passion, powder snowboarding. Onsen. Mountains. Powder snow. Now we spend our time traveling and enjoying these passions. If this sounds good to you, please come and visit our world!

Our Japan Regions

NIIGATA

Some argue Niigata has the best water in Japan, which leads to the best rice and therefore the best sake! This high-quality water comes from the large amount of powder snow that falls on the mountains and feeds the streams. We love it here and think you will too!

HAKONE

Hakone is where we began our journey. We built our first “rotenburo” or outdoor bath and started our journey with vacation rentals.

TOKYO

Our Tokyo base is in Shibuya. Come join us for a coffee at Fuglen in Tomigaya. Or a beer and tacos at ØL and La Cabina. Take a walk in Yoyogi park and enjoy life in the slow lane.
