Episode Description


"I lost my voice for two weeks after Japan, which is why the podcast hasn't been updated for the past two weeks". This Hokkaido trip was my first time joining a group tour instead of traveling solo. It was a real lesson in letting someone else take the lead and experiencing Taiwanese tour group culture firsthand.

The best part was the tour bus, it was a huge relief to leave my heavy bags behind while someone else handled the driving. Our guide felt like a strict teacher, especially when "setting the stage" for the duty-free shop visit.
