    I use 7/11 bank-i. It's the most convenient way for me as it's 7/11 ( as everyone knows it's a convenient store) anytime, anywhere;)

    I agree with Wagamama, 7&i Bank is a great way to transfer money (or get money) from your home country, and they have information, brochures and ATM services in many different languages. The fees are acceptable. If you don't like to use that service, Shinsei Bank has a pretty low fee, too. It's a really common bank for foreigners in Japan.

Which prefecture do you think is the most attractive?

I posted this morning about the recently released Prefectural Attractiveness Rankings. Obviously there's an element of subjectivity to this, because what one person deems attractive can be very different to someone else's opinion of it. Hokkaido was ranked the most attractive prefecture in Japan, but the full list can be found below (image source is the article here: https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/39c11474715641625a5720b86bc9b72dfe59e4cd). Of the prefectures you've visited, which would you say is the most attractive, and why would you rate it that way?

Your favorite ways to unwind in Japan

A few little stressors have been popping up in my life lately, so I was wondering about your favorite ways to unwind here -- the big and the small. One of mine is definitely onsen when I have the chance to go, but that's not always an "easy to do everyday" thing. Let me know in the comments so I can incorporate some of them into my routine!
