The national travel support program has started, and I thought, "Well, I'm going on a trip..." I looked at the reservation site and found that, well, it was too late. The nearest tours were already booked up with people who were very prepared for the trip.
I am grateful that the second edition of the "Nitscher Travel" came in at a time when I was in the middle of a project.
Niche Travel is a niche travel program packaged around the theme of "micro-tourism" that allows visitors to enjoy familiar sightseeing.In the first installment, we invited DJ MURO to dig around the record shops in Shibuya.
This time, the second installment of the tour will focus not on the World Cup, which is the talk of the town this year, but on the B-League, which has been heating up in recent years. . Because our motto is to go to the niche.
