Awara Onsen

As some of you already know, I went to Awara Onsen in Fukui prefecture for the winter holiday. It was my first time to dip into a hot spring in Japan. Everyone has been telling me how great the hot springs in Japan are, but I couldn't help but wonder what the big fuss was all about. After all, it's just hot water. As it turned out though, the onsen experience was very relaxing. The water was quite clean and set at the perfect temperature. The food in the hotel was awesome. I was stuffed after every meal! I didn't really do anything except eat, sleep and bath for 4 days. We did, however, take a short excursion to Tojinbo as you can see in the following pictures.

I have been looking for an American or British who is interested in Japanese Onsen.
You must be the one.

I have an idea to start reservation system in English only for "authentic" or "genuine" Japanese Ryokan in "Onsen" and Japanese sea food restaurants.I would like to concentrate in Fukui and Ishikawa prefecture.
Fukui is my bith place.

Now,I have no fund to start the business.

If you are interested in my idea,please make contact to my e-mail address or you may call 080-3820-5217.
I feel reluctant to speak in English,though.

Sincerely yours,
Yasumichi Takamiya
