After WWOOF #4, a real experience of living close to nature, and before WWOOF #5, we got a short week of touring with our friend Mimiko. For us almost full day in trains (5 interconnections) going east, for Mimiko a frightful ~900km by car, westbound.
Our rendez-vous point was in Hagi.

We did not just visit Hagi … with Mimiko we did a real tour on southern coast of Japanese sea, plus some excursions inland. Parts of the itinerary had been planned ahead, but a lot came from inspired improvisation.
Aside from Hagi, we also visited Tsuwano , overnighted in Oda, visited Izumo, inland visit to Okuizumo-Minari, back to the coast with Matsue, then Yoshiokaonsencho and could not miss the dunes in Tottori…. This is what can be called a drivu de luxe!

Getting to Hagi
On our way from nearby Fukuoka to Hagi, we took the train and had to change 5 times… opportunities to get glimpses of variety of countrysides.













In previous post we have mentioned the life saving Kotatsu (a low table with integrated heating)…
