nagano

I love Matsumoto (in Nagano Prefecture), it's a lovely city located right in the midst of some beautiful mountains.

Anyone thinking to buy property in Iida, Nagano please look me up.

Then a few hotels and ryokans mostly around Nagano and Toyama.

What no one wants to revisit Nagano Winter Olympics or Tetrisphere?

The Winter Olympics opening ceremony in Nagano in 98, when the world was singing the Ode to Joy was that peak moment for me [0].

By coincidence, I visited an Akiya in Nagano yesterday.

The LGV Mediternnanee, from a demographic standpoint, isn't much different than a line from Indianapolis to Chicago line, and the Nagano Shinkansen line not much different from a Seattle to Portland line.

I have actually been semi-seriously considering buying a place in Karuizawa - a beautiful small town in Nagano prefecture, yet you can be at tokyo station in 45 minutes.

I knew expats in Nagano prefecture who randomly became avid mountaineers/climbers just because it is the thing to do there if you want to build a huge local network.

A few years ago, I was almost forcibly prevented from leaving a Hawaiian burger joint in Nagano by a waitress who was concerned that I'd accidentally left some money on the table.

(Although sometimes these projects are built overnight, between departure of night and morning trains [1]) The Hokuriku shinkansen started construction in 1989 and opened reaching Nagano by 1997, just eight years later and in time for the 1998 Nagano Olympics.

If you really do want to go (slightly) off the beaten path, try Yokohama (a short hop from Tokyo), Kobe (rebuilt and revitalized since the ruinous earthquake, Fukuoka, Nagano (Winter Olympic city) or Sapporo.

Was a “webmaster” for the Atlanta and Nagano sites and managed an application development team for Sydney.

Last year Matsumoto loaned their impression to Nagano, so it'll be a while until it's on view again.

Make sure to visit the Hokusai Museum and the Gansho-in temple in Obuse, if you are near Nagano.

Technically, I am resident in Tokyo but own and live in a house in Nagano.
