Rolling through Shiga Prefecture (Patreon)

Kanae and I changed to the local train and once again overcome by the view from the window from these slower trains. The Shinkansen is nice but there’s no replacement for the slow panoramic views like this. Love the countryside! Any recommendations for local train lines worth taking in Japan? The Seishun 18 (ju-hachi) kippu is so worth it if you have time time. Out three times a year!
