Team Nicerio visits Hotel Rimu




My daughter and I visited Hotel Rimu for the first time last July 15, 2023, which was the first day of our Father and Daughter Road Trip # 5. It was also my 621st day here in Japan as an ALT under the JET Programme. Although we didn’t stay overnight in the hotel, we enjoyed the day trip onsen experience here. It was definitely a great, relaxing day-ender activity before we headed back to Nishiokoppe Forest Park Campsite to call it a day
