Sapporo Slow Travel Guide: 13 Days in Hokkaido's Capital

THIS IS IT. Episode 1. The first stop on our never-ending trip around the world. We left the UK in June 2025, stepped off the plane in Sapporo, Japan, and had absolutely no idea what we were doing. This was our first time leaving the UK for long-term travel, and honestly? We were terrified and excited in equal measure. We spent 13 days in Sapporo figuring things out—what we did, where we stayed, what we ate, and exactly what it cost (spoiler: £58 per person per day). ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 - Why We Started in Sapporo (Not Tokyo) 0:48 - Getting There & First Impressions 2:30 - Where We Stayed & Sapporo's Grid System 4:40 - Mount Moiwa: Japan's Top 3 Nightscapes 6:15 - Sapporo Food Guide (Miso Ramen & Crab Market) 8:50 - Day Trip to Otaru (Canal Town) 10:40 - Blue Pond & Furano Lavender Fields Tour 12:30 - Susukino Nightlife & Rooftop Ferris Wheel 13:45 - Complete Cost Breakdown 14:10 - Is Sapporo Worth Visiting? 🇯🇵 WHAT WE COVERED: Mount Moiwa ropeway cable car (sunset/night views) Sapporo TV Tower observation deck Noria Ferris wheel (rooftop of Norbesa building in Susukino) PARKS & NATURE: Sapporo Gokoku Shrine (Nakajima Park) Odori Park Hokkaido University Botanic Garden (includes taxidermy museum) SHOPPING: Underground shopping network (APOIA, Aurora Town, Pole Town) Tanuki Koji Shopping Street Susukino district (nightlife/entertainment area) FOOD EXPERIENCES: Ichiran Ramen (Susukino) Ganzo Sapporo Ramen Alley Sapporo Crab Market (kaisen don) Nijo Market (alternative seafood market) Hokkaido ice cream (various locations) Food festival at Odori Park Rooftop bar (under Noria Ferris wheel) MUSEUMS & CULTURE: Historical Village of Hokkaido (open-air museum) Music Box Museum (in Otaru) Pachinko parlor experience DAY TRIPS: Otaru (40 min by train): Otaru Canal Sakaimachi Street Music Box Museum Otaru Beer Brewery (free museum) Street food Buy Japan stamp book Blue Pond & Furano (full-day bus tour): Shirogane Blue Pond (Biei) Shirahige Waterfall Furano lavender fields Farm Tomita Rollercoaster Road UNIQUE EXPERIENCES: Japan stamp collecting (from stations/tourist spots) Night walking in Susukino Flower carpet event (if timing works out) --- 🌍 ABOUT PROJECT LIVE A LOT: This is where it all started. We left the UK in June 2025 with no return ticket. Just wanted to try new things, see more, live more, and figure out what we actually want from life. I'm Josh, this is Erin, and this is Project Live A Lot—our never-ending trip around the world. Sapporo was our first stop, and this is episode 1 of that journey. WHERE WE'VE BEEN: 🇯🇵 Japan (3 months) → 🇰🇷 South Korea → 🇹🇼 Taiwan → 🇻🇳 Vietnam (where we are now) Every place gets a full video with real costs, honest opinions, and actual useful information. The kind of videos we watched before leaving that actually helped us plan this whole thing. WHAT YOU'LL GET: Look, we're not influencers. We don't have a trust fund. We just make videos about where we've been, what we did, what it cost, and whether it was worth it. City guides with every cost broken down Day trips and how to book them Honest food reviews (we'll tell you when something's overrated) The reality of long-term travel, not just the Instagram version Slow travel - we stay weeks or months, not days Mid-range budget (not luxury, not hostels) HOW THIS WORKS: 📺 YouTube = where we've been (detailed guides, 3-6 months later) 📱 Instagram = where we are right now (daily updates) WHO WE ARE: Josh: Business owner obsessed with finding strange things to do in cities. Techy stuff, the supernatural, personality psychology, eating my way through every city. Erin: Designer turned Instagram video editor. Makes sure we actually experience places instead of just filming them. Keeps me sane. Crochets in her spare time. We'd been together 5 years when we decided the UK wasn't where we wanted to be. So we left. Best decision we ever made. --- FOLLOW ALONG: 📸 Instagram: @projectlivealot 📝 Blog: www.projectlivealot.co.uk 💬 TikTok: @projectlivealot ✉️ Work with us: projectlivealot@gmail.com --- 📺 THIS IS EPISODE 1 - Where the whole adventure began.
