Vomit Blood? Dying edy?  devil.gif

Yup. Expensive hotel kinda set me off ... 2 nights in Noboribetsu and Abashiri = 4 rooms = RM4800 plus (thats the cheapest I can find)
Jr Hokkaido RM923 ish vs Jr National Pass RM1150 x 8 fella, u do the calculation la...

In Tokyo, I can get a cheaper room and I can go further place with the Jr Pass with slight additional pricing. So why not?!

U said Hokkaido is so damn big, so tell me where shud I go with reasonable hotel pricing and sizes? And have enough info online plus walking distance to its point of interest? Please enlighten me  biggrin.gif

Furano? Biei? Wakanai? It's winter man... Plus I have 2 parents, I rather sit more train then changing n walking around.

Yes, Google Maps work perfectly fine in Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto. It was a lifesaver for a solo female traveller like me.

RM2k to Tokyo via MAS? It's EXPENSIVE.

Fly ANA, it will cost you between RM1.5k to RM1.8k and it's very very good.
*
recommend ANA also

MAS air stewardess, so fcuk*ng lansi, lazy service, racist,
summore fat, ugly and old aunty look...

ANA air stewardess, young + pretty, the face 24x7 always smile and excellent 5star service

If you been travel alot, you know airport thing is not cheap. No way is cheaper than outside.

Have to explain in this way.

This so called branded thing have 2 kind of quality. The outlet quality and the city quality.

Outlet quality is lower and cheaper to tackle for tourist (specially PRC). Outlet product doesn't sell in the city shop. City branded shop carry latest product and higher quality.

Don't be surprise if the coach bag leather buy from outlet start to peel off 2yrs later. (real experience from family)

But not all shop have such clear procedure. Mainly branded product.

Sorry, I don't no got such shop sell lucky bag/Fukubukuro. There is too many shop in gotemba outlet. Go to the website and check the list shop.

i can confirm this, bought a peel off bag from coach without knowing.
then wrote a complaint letter to coach international,
they dont even wan to entertain... reason discount item 😡😠😡😠😡😠
