“The Alien Trip vol.01” Official DIGGERs Kana Yukawa and Jina from Egypt go to Arima Hot Springs in Kita ward!

You deserve an alien chop! Let me unveil what you don’t know about Kobe from the viewpoint of an alien (foreigner) ♪ Your navigator for this alien trip is the official DIGGER Kana Yukawa who just returned from Spain. I hope you enjoy reading about my incident-filled adventure with an alien who sends reports to her home country about the trip full of misunderstandings and overlooked things due to the Latino mode I was in. Hola! This is Kana for Alien Trip reporting from Arima Hot Springs in Kita ward. Wait… Kita ward? Arima Hot Springs. It’s just as famous as Kusatsu and Gero. It’s just as old as Dougo and Shirahama. Here case with other hot spring resorts. You drive on the highway for around 2 hours, go down to the open road, stop by at a roadside station and after around 40 minutes when different sentiments while travelling reaches the peak, you eventually arrive at the village where hot spring steam is rising from everywhere. At 9 am~5 pm on a weekday, I have a day trip mission to a destination with the address Kita ward, Kobe city! I never dreamed that such place was included in the area for investigation of Kobe city. What on earth is Kobe up to? Oops, it’s my job to investigate. Well, here I go. I left the house at 9 in the morning, heading for Paiyama (pie mountain) in the plaza at Sannomiya station. (a popular meeting place in Sannomiya) To be honest, it was the hardest part for me to get on the elevator of my apartment building revealing my blond hair since I normally wear a black wig to blend into my surrounding. “Hi, X’s mom, so today, you are …?” Just picture a packed elevator at 8:15 in the morning, someone staring at you with the air of wanting to ask further but can’t. But after that, as I pushed my way through the businessmen going to Kobe Steel up the hill towards the station, I took back my pride as a Fukabori navigator and held my head high looking determined. If I stare first, the other person will look away. I took this from a teaching by a teacher in Shimanto River who goes number 2 outside. He said, “When going to the bathroom outside, face the direction where there are many people.” This is worth remembering. At 9 am, I met up with Jina, my companion for this investigation, at Paiyama. “She has the beauty comparable to Cleopatra.” was the only vague information given to me, but I had no trouble spotting this beautiful woman. Her father is a Naples-born Italian and her mother an Alexandria-born Egyptian. Jina is a cooking expert and owns an Egyptian restaurant and a wine bar in Sannomiya. She is a woman with an undaunted attitude who, shortly after coming to Japan, smashed and broke her finger in the automatic door of a taxi but walked away with a smile on her face. Taxi drivers in Japan, please pay special attention to foreigners taking a taxi!
