Welcome to my blog!!

 

Hi, I am Ryon, the writer of this blog.  I’m here to share tips and insights for enjoying slow travel in Japan’s Kansai area!

On this blog,  When it comes to traveling, I believe in taking it slow and enjoying a relaxed journey. Travel should be about experiencing a special escape from everyday life, don’t you think? 

Welcome to our blog, where we bring the magic of slow travel to Japan’s Kansai region.

Your Dream Journey Is a Reflection of Your Life

I believe that a person’s values and way of thinking are reflected in the way they travel. I have a relaxed personality and don’t enjoy rushing, and that’s exactly how I approach my journeys as well. Rather than being caught up in constant movement or the next item on the itinerary, I prefer to fully immerse myself in one place, taking the time to truly enjoy everything it has to offer. That’s the kind of travel I love.

When I decided to start a blog themed around this style of travel, I naturally gravitated toward focusing on the Kansai region. Hyogo is my hometown, and Kansai is the area I know best, with many places I’ve personally visited and come to love.
 

While cities like Osaka, Kyoto, and Nara are already popular tourist destinations, I believe there are still countless hidden gems waiting to be discovered—stunning locations, local dishes, and charming restaurants that many people have yet to experience.

Through my blog, I hope to share these lesser-known wonders with you, providing a fresh perspective on this amazing region.
