Explore Shiga With Me! 滋賀県大津市で24時間過ごしてみた!

Hey guys! Long time no see!
I recently took a trip to Shiga Prefecture to check out some of the new English-friendly programs/experiences they've developed there. It was my first time in the Shiga/Lake Biwa area, and the weather was not so great, but I thought I'd take you on my 24 hour trip with me. It's a bit of a long video so sit down and get comfy!
Otsu City is just a short way from Kyoto by train, so it's a good option for a quick getaway from the busy tourist traffic. Take a break from busy/hectic by cycling through the Japanese countryside, learning to make traditional chicken sukiyaki lunch, checking out the massive Lake Biwa, or treating yourself to some amazing teppan-yaki steak at Matsukiya.
Sharla also made it out to the area so you can check out her video here: • Trying on a Fancy 12 L...

    Otsu is just one train stop away from my former home for a year, Yamashina, Kyoto. :( You made me miss Kansai so bad. I visited Otsu, Kusatsu, and Hikone in Shiga while I was living in Kyoto, but I never got to do anything summer-y at Lake Biwa. 😂 You're such a friendly person; I enjoyed this video a lot! ☺️
