@kayli.kiing: more or less than you expected?? (all prices converted from yen to USD) the van company was super responsive when it broke down! we all live(d) in vans back in the states and are used to things going wrong so we just went with it 😅 they ended up driving out a replacement van later! this is my third time being in Japan for winter and I have noticed some prices rising. the resort meals at Kiroro are about 50% more expensive than last year, but the lift tickets only rose $2(ish). you can find vans that are cheaper but that also comes at a price, and in the winter you want one with a GOOD heater the van company we rented from also partners with a RV park, so we can get free parking there as well! 4th pic @quingable 💕 #vanlifejapan #lifeontheroad #traveljapan
