Osaka - Part 1

Is the time to travel, and here I'm in the Kansai International Airport to start my siblings journey. This is my first time traveling with my sisters to Osaka for 5 days 4 nights trip. Everything goes free and easy but absolutely exhausted due to non-stop resting.

The next morning and soon heading back to Osaka town. Our last day trip for shopping before heading back home the next day. This times we chosen to stay in airbnb that currently very hit by sleeping in the local family house. Overall, the host provided a great services where my rest hour are good in the tatami. Exceptional in the last trip in Wakayama and Osaka was staying in a hot-spring resort and budget hotel.
