Airbnb experience "A Tour of a Sake Brewery in Wakayama, From Osaka"
【Koji mold completion】
After the steamed rice has cooled, it is taken to the koji room. Where the koji mold spores are sprinkled over it.
Koji mold is cultivated for 48 hours in a temperature and humidity controlled kooji room.
To make sure the koji mold grows evenly, it is carefully tended day and night.
Once the koji mold has fully grown, the koji rice is taken out of the room and cooled in a “kareba” cooling area.
It is spread out bamboo mats to adjust moisture and saccharification power.
Koji mold converts the starch in the rice into glucose.
Yeast then converts glucose into alcohol.
That alcohol becomes “nihon-shu” 日本酒。

Airbnb 9月の和歌山酒蔵ツアー
【製麹（せいきく）】
蒸米を冷ました後、蒸米は麹室へ運ばれます。そこで蒸米の上に麹菌が撒かれます。
麹菌は温度、湿度共に管理された麹室で繁殖します。
その成長にムラができないように、昼夜を問わず、注意深く世話されます。
麹菌が充分に繁殖できたら麹米を室から出し、枯れ場で熱を冷まします。麹米は竹のすのこの上に広げられ、水分と糖化力を調整します。
麹菌は米のデンプンをブドウ糖に変えます。そのブドウ糖を酵母がアルコールにします。そのアルコールが「日本酒」になります。

【文学フリマ大阪で猫イラスト売ります】
いつもは野鳥ばっかり売ってますが、今回から「猫😸」売ります。
猫の写真集はフツーにあるから、私の場合はイラストにしました。
全部野良猫。
ゴミを漁るだの、ゴミを散らかすだの、うんちが臭いだの、すぐ増えるだの散々なことを言われますが、意外と彼らは静かに暮らしています。
ゴミを漁って、散らかすのはむしろカラスです。

そんな一生懸命な彼らの日常が、イラストから伝わると良いなと思います。

This reel focuses on soaking the sake rice, a process called shinseki in Japanese.

After the sake rice is washed, it is soaked in water so that it absorbs the precise amount of moisture before being steamed. This soaking process is one of the most important steps in sake brewing.

During the tour, you'll have the opportunity to hear the brewery owner explain this process firsthand, making it much easier to understand.

We look forward to welcoming you on the tour!

I'm Susie, your video writer.
This is one of the tours that "Oyodo Planning" hopes to operate in collaboration with travel agencies in the future.
The theme of the trips "Travel Like a Local. Live Like a Local."
So this is just a sample to give you an idea of the kind of tours designed for small groups up to four people, and we use public transportation throughout.

Today is the final day of my three-day, two-night trip.
My last stops are Ritsurin Garden and Takamatsu Castle in Takamatsu City.
After that, I'll take the Marin Liner across the Seto Ohashi Bridge to Okayama.
From Okayama, I'll board the Shinkansen and head back to Osaka

It takes about one hour by ferry to get to Takamatsu from Naoshima Island.
Ritsurin Koen Station is the second station from Takamatsu-chikuko Station, and walks in 10 minutes to the garden.

Ritsurin Garden is the largest early Edo Period strolling garden in Japan.
It was gradually developed by generations of the lords of Takamatsu Domain.
It's absolutely enormous!
This time, I followed the Nanko Pond Course.
Even a casual walk took about one hour.

I took the Kotoden train back to Takamatsu-Chikuko Station and headed to Takamatsu Castle.
The Saya Bridge, which connects the Ninomaru and Honmaru Palace, is particularly interesting.
In an emergency, the bridge could be destroyed to protect the Honmaru Palace.
Takamatsu Castle is a seaside castle whose moats are filled with the seawater drawn from the Seto Inland Sea. It was built in 1588 by Ikoma Chikamasa.

Finally I took Marin Liner from Takamatsu for one reason-to see the Seto Ohashi Bridge.
Well...that didn't go as planned.
The railway runs underneath the bridge, so you can hardly see it from the train.
That was a good reminder that it's always worth planning your trip carefully in advance.

A three-day journey through Naoshima and Teshima Islands, and Takamatsu City.
I had a wonderful time.
Next time, I'll replace Takamatsu with Kurashiki and do another pre-tour.

Hi, I'm Susie, your guide.
This is the one of the tours that "Oyodo Planning" hopes to operate in collaboration with travel agencies I the future.
The theme of trip is " Travel like a local. Live like a local."
So this is just a sample to give you an idea of the kind of the tours I have in my mind. Basically the tours are designed for small groups of up to four people, and we use public transportations throughout.

This time I visited Naoshima & Teshima Islands, and Takamatsu City. The tour can be customized, but the first day is basically dedicated Naoshima Island.

There are more cats on Naoshima than you might expect.
The museum shop at Benesse House Museum even sells tenugui hand towels featuring a cat and Naoshima-themed design.

The cats here aren't strey cats.They're called "community cats". That's because people here see outdoor cats as part of the community, and everyone helps take care of them.

Naoshima is famous for it's contemporary arts, but instead of spending your time visiting museums, why not go looking for Island's cats? It can be completely different-and equally memorable- way to experience Naoshima.
----------------------------
直島には猫が意外とたくさんいます。
ベネッセハウスミュージアムのミュージアムショップでは、猫と直島をモチーフにした手ぬぐいを売っているほど。
ここの猫は野良猫ではありません。
「コミュニティキャット」と呼ばれています。
外で暮らす猫たちもコミュニティの一員と考え、みんなで世話をするからです。

直島は現代アートで知られた島ですが、アートせずに、猫たちを探してみるのも旅の体験になるでしょう。

Hi, I'm Susie, your guide.
This is one of the tours that "Oyodo Planning" hopes to operate in collaboration with travel agencies in the future.
The theme of trip is "Travel Like a Local"-a relaxing three-day, two-night trip.
So this is just a sample to give you an idea of the kind of the tours I have in my mind.
Basically, the tours are designed for small groups of up to four people, and we use public transportations throughout.

This time, I'll be visiting Naoshima, Teshima Islands and Takamatsu.
The tour can be customized, but the first day is basically dedicated to Naoshima Island.

Naoshima is about 20 minutes ferry ride from Uno Port. Although it's world-famous for it's contemporary art, this time we're different approach-we're not here for the art. We're here to experience the island as if we were locals.

The island has a three types of bus services: the town bus, the Benesse shattle bus (which runs between Chichu Art Museum and Tsutsuji-so), and residents-only community bus.

Taxis are available, but it's best not depend on them. There are only few taxi companies on the island, each with a small fleet, and their taxis often reserved in advance for private bookings.

The cute polka-dot town bus goes all around the island. The fair is just 100 yen for adults and 50 yen for children, no matter where you go.
The Benesse shattle bus is free, and anyone can use it-you don't have to visit the museum to ride it.

By the way, neither Benesse shattle bus nor town bus runs between Chichu Art Museum and Miyaura Port.
It's about 30 minutes walk. Let's enjoy walking along the beautiful coastline.
