    Niseko would be a 'classic' trip from Sapporo. However, with 4 days it might be a bit of a squeeze. It takes 2-3 hrs on the train and costs around 2,500 yen. An easier excursion from Sapporo would be Otaru. I liked it there. Only 30 mins from Sapporo by train (about 600 -1000 yen depending on the service you use). If you like hot springs then some friends I know have been to Jozankei and said it was nice. I looked it up; you need to take I bus from Sapporo station maybe. 75 min and 700 yen. Personally, I liked Sapporo a lot and felt there was enough within the city to occupy a few days. But if you're making the trip all the way from Tokyo, then you should probably explore some places outside of the city.

Do you wear kimono? When and where?

In what environments have you worn kimono, hakama, or other traditional clothing? My only kimono experience is Heian period garb - basket hat, veil, and hakama - at a regional festival. I'm curious about daily kimono wear. Have you found a community or school that trains you in kimono wear? How much time do you dedicate to dressing?

What do you MOST associate with Oita?

Seen as there was a good response to the same question for Ibaraki AND today is Oita Prefecture day (although they don't celebrate it), what is the first thing that comes to mind when I say "Oita Prefecture"? I have written a post about Oita Prefecture day with what I most associate with it, but I won't write it here so as not to influence your answer, but you can read the post here; https://www.city-cost.com/blogs/BigfamJapan/Mnv34-living_oita

Japanese names you love?

I blogged yesterday about this year's top baby names in Japan, and there was quite a focus on nature and calmness in the most popular picks. I was wondering if there are any Japanese names you love for the meaning behind them. Maybe you have a friend, coworker, or even family member with a beautiful name. I'd be happy to hear what it is, and why you like it so much!
