    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.

Favorite eco-friendly Japan brands

I posted this morning about an initiative that repurposes parts from retired Osaka Metro train cars and turns them into bags, chairs, and more. I'm also a big fan of the Nozomi Project, who make jewelry items with broken pottery found after the 2011 earthquake/tsunami. Do you have any favorite Japan-based brands that have a focus on upcycling or eco-friendliness?

What's a Japanese autumn tradition you've really come to love?

I mentioned in a blog yesterday that one of the things I love about autumn is the yakiimo warmers that pop up in convenience stores, supermarkets, and farmer's markets at this time of year. What's an autumn tradition that you've come to love during your years here? It could be anything...food-related things, autumn festivals you really enjoy, or possibly something else entirely!

Autumn travel trends in Japan, and where you might opt for instead

I saw a press release this week from the travel platform Agoda about travel trends in Japan for autumn. The biggest jumps in searches since last year were for Kagawa Prefecture, Shizuoka Prefecture, Hyogo Prefecture, and Hiroshima Prefecture. Have you visited any of those places in autumn, or maybe even lived (or currently living!) there? Any places you might opt for instead?

Job-related platforms that get you attention?

I'm on LinkedIn and get some positive attention from employers. I'm also on Hello Sensei, a platform for English tutoring. Occasionally, I get bites from employers. I get that we, City Cost correspondents, are in different fields. But which outlets do you use to broaden you employement prospects?
