This is where I live on video (No Reservations: Hokkaido)


Randomly, though he'd already been to Japan for an episode of his fantastic Travel/Food documentary series, Anthony Bourdain came back this past February to do an episode focusing solely on Hokkaido. Well, it's mostly Sapporo as he didn't rove further than about a 20km radius from the city. However, he heads to places I've told you about before, like Niseko and Noboribetsu, and when he talks about "Uni" and "Tarako," those are two things that my town is famous for catching. The video is a little wintery compared to the weather here today, but I figure it's still a great way to get a video glimpse into the part of Japan where I live. What's more, this is the full episode, so you don't need to go hunting for other parts.

Hope you like it. As it is making miss this place even when I am still here, I can attest to its accuracy.
