Hi everyone,
I'm planning a trip to Hokkaido in late October/early November and would love to get your feedback on my itinerary. I'm particularly interested in any suggestions on how to make the most of the autumn season and any recommendations for specific activities or places to visit.
I'm also open to any general feedback on the itinerary's pacing, transportation options, or anything else that comes to mind.
Thanks in advance for your help!
