ROUTES — 1 week
If you only trace the sights, a week is too long. Head north without booking a room, try living somewhere as a scouting trip for a move, and work by the water on weekdays. A slightly longer trip spent on the land's time, not a tourist's.
Without booking a single room, head north up the coastline from Hokuriku to San'in. If a harbor town wins you over, stay as many nights as you like. If the weather turns, a day of not moving is fine too. A week where not filling the schedule becomes the greatest luxury.
A week to touch a candidate for relocation through living, not sightseeing. How the morning light comes in, the nearby supermarket, the quiet of the night, the idleness of a rainy day. Confirm what brochures and viewings can't tell you by actually living there. You can decide afterward.
With power and a connection, you can make a desk anywhere. Park by a quiet waterside to work on weekdays, and drive a little only on your days off. Away from the city where your company is, life goes on. Another way to work, for a week.
It starts by choosing your dates and checking availability.
